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,…
The Commercial Observer cheekily uses a DC line to reveal that Marvel Comics is upping sticks and moving everyone to a new building. Not, as some have rumoured, to Orlando, but a few streets way to 135 West 50th Street, sub-leasing a floor from Alliance Bernstein for nine years. The move will take place in…
A few months ago, this would have been the highest price achieved by a comic book, $436,000. Now a copy of Action Comics #1, the first appearance of Superman, graded “5.0″ by the CGC, is merely a footnote as its better-quality brethren race hurriedly towards the two million dollar mark. But this comic hit the…

Bleeding Cool has been giving you sneak peeks of what is to come in the Scott Pilgrim Vs The World home release, but now it’s all official. Hitting November 9th comes the Scott Pilgrim Blu Ray/DVD Combo Pack and the separate DVDs and Blu Ray. Of note is that fact that purchasers of the Combo…
The movie has been and gone. The books have topped the best seller list. But Amazon still have a few too many. It’s time, it seems, for the big Scott Pilgrim blowout. If you are one of the few people who has not bought the comic – of if you are a retailer having difficulty…
Matt Booker from from Automattic Comics popped by the location shoot for the sixth series of Doctor Who, filming in a council estate in central Bristol, with a snappy camera to hand… This is a three day shoot of the third episode (written by Mark Gatiss). Specific locations included flat interiors, stairwells, corridors, and the…
TechWatch: As HP launches its new all-in-one TouchSmart PCs, it also launches “the new HP TouchSmart Apps Center, with free accessibility and subscription-based applications from Marvel Comics, Cartoon Network, touch-enabled games, and more. SignWatch: Midtown Comics in Times Square is hosting a signing with Skullkickers artist Edwin Huang. He’ll be signing copies of Skullkickers #1…
Now who’d have thunk it: Tim Burton is calling upon some of his old favourites to provide voices for his stop-motion movie Frankenweenie. Better the actors you know than the actors you don’t? But here’s the twist – I’m not talking about Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter. You have to dig just a little bit…
Noah Emmerich was Marlon in The Truman Show, the best friend who wasn’t all he seemed. Ron Eldard was a golden gloves boxer who turned to acting and appeared in a whole heap of hourlong dramas. Gabriel Basso is currently appearing on The Big C as Adam, the lead character’s son. According to The Wrap…
John B has been recording the set up of the Captain America film set and took a number of videos of the goings on. And then sent the links to Bleeding Cool. Isn’t he nice? Here’s how it’s been going down. Day Two Day Three Day Four Day Five And Seven Day Nine
Here’s a short survey of some of the film world’s recent comings and goings. Though, having said that, I want to start with a couple of TV stories. The BBC have confirmed that there will be more Doctor Who adventure games next year, again developed with Sumo Digital. There’s still one more of the first…
The upcoming Archie #616 (That’s the number of Hank McCoy BTW) is entitled Campaign Pain and sees President Barack Obama and ex-governor-not-quite-sure-what-she-is-now Sarah Palin getting involved in student politics at Riverdale High. And probably boosting sales in the process. Archie and Reggie both boastfully claim the support of their respective politician of choice, only for…
I saw these posters earlier today on the blog of director Nacho Vigalondo and thought that I’d share them with you. A short few hours of rushing about later, and I see they’re already going viral. That’s the mark of good design, I think. They’re both for the film Extraterrestre, which translates as Extraterrestrial, unsurprisingly….
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…
