Awwwww… Jim Lee finished the most recent issue of Justice League #5 just before his new child was born, and while his wife Carla was rather heavily pregnant. He’s written that the new arrival held out until he’d finished his deadline, which was appreciated by all, I’m sure. But what tribute could Jim Lee make…
We know from the publicity that DC Vertigo are publishing graphic novel adaptaions of the Millenium Trilogy, with Denise Mina and Leonardo Manco adapting the first book The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo into two parts. And in April they’ll be publishing a free teaser of the first graphic novel. But Bleeding Cool (alone it…
Recently, Bleeding Cool ran an article on how Marvel were looking to get certain creators out of their exclusive deals with Marvel, in an attempt to save money. And how Ariel Olivetti may have been a good example, locked into a two year excluisve deal with Marvel but suddenly appearing on the rejigged Men Of…
Toy News International ran these scans of images of DC toys and statues for 2012. But did they miss the headline story? Or is it a case of one side of DC not knowing what the other is doing? Because in May 2012, as part of the New 52 Cover Girls Of The DC Universe,…
At the exact moment of my typing this, Wikipedia is behind Access Hollywood in the important matter of Lasse Hallstrom’s The Danish Girl. Here’s the evidence: Whereas, AH say: [Nicole Kidman's] upcoming film projects include the romance drama The Danish Girl, which once again pairs her with Cotillard, as well as the thriller Trespass opposite…
As revealed via their Facebook page, the official logotype for Pixar’s Brave is now considerably less wonky than it was a couple of weeks ago. At this resolution you can quite easily make out a couple of easter eggy touches. There, in the vertical elements of the B and the E are representations of two…
Kevin Feige has taken part in a group Q&A session in order to promote the imminent release of Iron Man 2 on DVD and Blu-ray. As well as the relevant questions (ie. the ones about the imminent release of Iron Man 2 on DVD and Blu-ray) he was also served up a couple of news-seeking…
Remember that rather superb looking Road Runner cartoon that I shared a clip from a few days ago? Remember how I told you it would be playing in cinemas with Legend of the Guardians this weekend? Well, it looks like it won’t. Bleeding Cool have been told that Fur of Flying has been pulled and…
While Charlie Brooker glowers from above. Sadly he doesn’t seem to be doing a comic, and neither do Pegg or Frost. Boo. Instead, as well as continuing episodes of Rex Royd, Turf, Kick Ass 2 and Nemesis, it looks like issue 2 of CLiNT will also begin the serialisation of Millar and Peter Gross’ Chosen…
As Barry Meyer promised last week, Warner Bros continues to roll out structural changes, these coming on the heels of yesterday’s DC Comics-focused announcements. Among today’s changes: NEW YORK, September 22, 2010 – Jeff Bewkes, Chairman and CEO, Time Warner Inc., announced leadership changes at Warner Bros. to position the company for succession. As part…
It’s been a long time coming. Hell, Comixology got the files from publisher Markosia at San Diego Comic Con last year. But today, The Flying Friar went digital. Since publication, artist Thomas Nachlik has become a successful artist at Top Cow. Thomas Mauer has lettered and edited all manner of Image titles. Ian Sharman basically…
We’ll start with some pictures, and then I’ll tell you some of the new information we have on Terry Gilliam’s short film The Legend of Talladega. These really are great pictures – our Little Bleeders continue to honour themselves with their spy works. You can click through to see each of them at a larger…
This is something to do with American Sports I think but apparently in some match or other, some kid tried to dress up in a superhero-style costume and ran onto the field, only to be taken down by the players. Specifically someone called Diaz. Here’s the article, but it doesn’t even state which sport this…
The original report I’m citing here appears to be rather tabloidy (see also: their pap snap that I’m using), but let’s give them the benefit of the doubt. According to Aftonbladet, (via Rooney Mara Source) the new Lisbeth Salander, Rooney Mara, has injured herself in the shoulder “so severely” that production on David Fincher’s The…
Marvel are running a sweet little ad for their Digital Comics Unlimited service, on the likes of Yahoo Answers, featuring a post coital scene with the master of Magnetism. We thought we’d break it down, panel by panel. And look, they even use Comic Sans in one panel. Bless.
Getting Lost Girls into the UK has always been problematic, due to inconsistent anti-pornography measures taken by UK Customs And Excise. And yes, it seems rather odd when you can download whatever you want and skip past the best Her Majesty has to stop it. I remember when copies of From Hell were seized and…
Below you’ll see a photo of a poster, hanging on a bus shelter. It was taken by Little Bleeder Ian, who wondered: I don’t know if this is genuine viral marketing or just a bunch of students. You can see a #believeinsherlock hashtag on the bottom right hand corner. I went to Twitter and searched…
The above is a commission by Frank Miller, recreating the splash page from The Dark Knight, below, for one Felix Lu. Such a detailed commission from Miller, it would be quite a rarity these days and rather expensive. Albeit not quite as expensive as buying the original art, recently selling for almost half a million…
Here’s an orderly and dependable plot blurb for The Amazing Spider-Man, as issued by Sony and piling up across the net (and in my inbox) like wildfire right now. There may not be any bombshells in here, but the strands come together pretty clearly. You know – like a web. The Amazing Spider-Man is the…
The last time I remember reading a Legend Of Zelda comic was back in the nineties, from Valiant Comics before they decided to move into superheroes. There’s were also a few manga books tied into specific game releases but no US licenced comics for quite some time. This could change if Joe Madueira gets his…
He’s done gangbusters for DC Comics, taking C-list character Animal Man, whose return to the DC Universe from DC Vertigo had been lacklustre at best, and turned him into a surprise critical and commercial hit as part of the DC New 52. So it’s only natural that DC might tap him for any other bright…
I would assume that the success of The Lord of the Rings and the huge interest in The Hobbit, not to mention the extraordinary, eight-film success of the Harry Potter series, would encourage Warner Bros. to look seriously into all of their similar options, but the studio has not to move ahead with a long-developing…
