John Rozum recently talked about his problems as writer of Static Shock, citing that he was hardly writing the book, the actual work being split between artist Scott McDaniel and editor Harvey Richards, which is why he chose to walk off the book with issue 4, not wanting his name to be associated with work…
The Darkness #100 is on its way… And this is the first you’ll have seen of the Todd McFarlane (above), the Michael Golden (below) and the Marc Silvestri retailer incentive (further below). 48 pages for $4.99 US, it’s out the last day of February. But since the Darkness II game comes out today, it seems…
It was the recent ICV2 interview with Marvel Senior Vice President-Sales David Gabriel that did it. Answering a questionnaire with no followups, he managed to dodge some questions by answering different ones, and throw some googlies at the opposing team. But he’s hardly alone in this, DC’s Executive VP-Sales, Marketing and Business Development John Rood…
Pretty much as premiered last night at Sony’s The Untold Story special events, here’s the first full trailer for The Amazing Spider-Man. This time there’s Lizard, there’s more back story and there’s a good sense of the “new” Peter Parker. I say “pretty much” because those of usat the events got to see it in…

I can’t see the trailer for the new Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Season 8 Motion Comic.
It’s only because I’m an Englishman, and iTunes won’t let my country near it. None of “you Americans” have stolen it and posted it to YouTube helped the valiant promotional effort by sharing it on region-free turf quite yet, but I look forward to when you do.
In the meantime, I’d like one of you to download it, describe it and mail that description to me so I can include it in this post. Heck – let’s make this a competition. I don’t know what you’ll win, but I’ll think of something. I might even include multiple descriptions that forum users can vote on or something.
Because, you know, if I don’t… there’s not much of a story here, is there?
UPDATE: Here’s our one description so far, courtesy of puppetDoug.
It opens with the opening lines from the Season 8 comics, “The thing about changing the world is, once you do, the world’s all…different,” while showing actual footage from the series finale of the show. Then, the shot of the hellmouth crater fades into Georges Jeanty’s artistic representation as the sign falls into the crater and a drawn helicopter flies overhead. The 20th Century Fox logo appears, followed by Dark Horse and Mutant Enemy’s respective logos.
The Buffy TV show logo appears, followed by various action shots from “The Long Way Home” in motion.
A narrator says: “With Sunnydale gone and the slayers numbering almost two thousand, Buffy, Xander and the gang must take the fight around the world to face an elusive new enemy intent on taking the slayer population to zero.”Words appear on-screen: “Where the TV Show Ends…”
Twilight says, “It all ends really soon.”
More Words: “The new adventure begins.”
Buffy says, “I think these boys were looking for a fight.”
Then the Nerf Herder theme starts, with lots of motion comic explosions and punches to the face. I haven’t looked at any motion comics since the Astonishing X-men one, but it looks slightly better done, animation-wise. The Buffy logo comes up in red, with “Season Eight” written beneath it. We then get a classic group shot and Buffy saying, “This is war.”
Words: “Joss Whedon’s critically acclaimed Season Eight comes to life. Available now for digital download.”
We’ve finally been given a look at Loki’s forces in the new, extended trailer for The Avengers, as premiered online just after a cut-down version graced the Superbowl. Here are four screen grabs from the single shot in which they appear with any degree of clarity: So it’s not the Skrull or the Kree –…
Here’s the new TV spot for The Avengers as premiered during the Superbowl – just, longer now. And that’s a good thing. For those of you who watched the Superbowl just to see this commercial, tell me: was it worth it? Related Posts:The Extended John Carter Superbowl Spot Is Here (Fixed) The Avengers Mini-Rushes –…
In yesterday’s webchat (referred to earlier), Alan Moore revealed that the next League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen project to follow the conclusion of Century this summer, is to be called Nemo: Heart Of Ice, and that forty of the forty-eight pages involved have been written so far… and that we’ll see it before the end of…

Is it Spider-Man? Or has Iron Man just got a fancy new paint job? This is the costume he’ll be wearing in the upcoming Ends Of The Earth storyline, as the machinations of Doctor Octopus and the Sinister Six are made clear. There’s webbing design on the lining as well. Related Posts:Spider-Man’s New Costume Gets…
When reporting early rumours about Before Watchmen, almost every name I was given turned out to be true – Darwyn Cooke, Brian Azzarello, JMS, Amanda Conner, JG Jones, Andy Kubert, Joe Kubert, Adam Hughes and John Higgins. There was another name that I dismissed as it was denied directly – that of Kevin Smith. His…
