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,…
In 1998 DC Comics bought Wildstorm. It was generally agreed they wanted it for three things. The colourists. Jim Lee. And Alan Moore. As a result, they also got The Authority, Warren Ellis’ recreation of the Wildstorm Universe that parodied and satirised much of DC’s. And under Mark Millar would grab news headlines around the…
From the Wildstorm blog The Bleed… which is currently having traffic issues. Here folks, let me help your bandwidth woes… The changes happening behind the scenes this week are part of a greater campaign to reshape DC Comics and build a company for the future. Our responsibility as Co-Publishers is to find a balance between…
I assume that 1-sheet posters for TV shows are designed for bus stops? Where else might they go? I’d have expected the billboard shape – and site – would have been more popular for TV advertising. Anyway, here’s the final, official Walking Dead poster courtesy of AMC. Maybe there’s never even going to be a…
Don’t spread yourself too thin, Mr. Nolan. We wouldn’t want you to become transparent. Speaking to press in Italy, ahead of Inception‘s release there this weekend, Christopher Nolan has given something of a status update on his current projects. Yes, he’s writing another Batman, which is still to be officially greenlit (of course). Nolan even…
UPDATE: I understand that every employee at 1700 Broadway is getting a one-on-one meeting with Human Resources. Every one. No wonder thay aren’t moving people till the end of next year, it will take that long… The meeting is out. The press release is sent. And it sounds like DC Comics sorry Entertainment is having…
The DC Comics office phone just rings and rings and rings… eventually going to a “Please Hang Up” voice. Three times now. Even the receptionists must be in the meeting.
Just as Bleeding Cool posted yesterday, today certain New York folk seem to be tagging DC’s Big Announcement To Move West as happening today. But, naturally, it’s not going to be a clean and easy break. The announcement is expected to be made at 12:30 ET/ 9.30 PT – in less than an hour’s time….
On one side, Hughie. On the other, rather fun reprise of a classic Boys scene with action figures. Both by Darick Robertson, natch. Both out in December from Dynamite!
You too can be like Ryan Reynolds*. First of all, enter and win this competition for a Buried survival kit. Secondly, get somebody to nail you in a box and bury you in the garden. I shouldn’t imagine you’ll have too much trouble with either part, really… This prize is actually a rather good one….
I mean it’s no Scott Pilgrim discount. But this new paperback volume from DC reprinting tghe original long-sold-out hardcover collection of Ross and Dini’s Superman: Peace On Earth, Batman: War On Crime, Shazam!”: Power Of Hope, Wonder Woman: Spirit Of Truth, JLA: Secret Origins and JLA: Liberty And Justice is getting seriusly discounted in the…
Brian Rodgers from has been spilling the giant, city crushing beans on the Legendary Picture’s plans for a 2012 Godzilla reboot, caught on camera at this week’s 3D Summit. In the video below, you’ll see Rodgers explain: The project’s origin as a 3D IMAX movie How he realigned the concept as a wide-release for digital…
Graeme McMillan. Tim Twelves. Cameron Hatheway. Simon Rohrmuller. Rick Rottman. Just five of the many people whose emails have been spouting the following message; Hello, What have you been up to ? Tell you a good news. At last few days,My friend Jack told me where was called the factory of world.All the things is…
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…
