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,…
Lois Lane from Superman: Earth One, current burning up the news pages. And Debra Morgan, Dexter’s sister by adoption, played by Jennifer Carpenter Do check that hand… In Swipe File we present two or more images that resemble each other to some degree. They may be homages, parodies, ironic appropriations, coincidences or works of the…
The following is by no means a review, though I have tried to think critically. Consider it my personal reflection. The collection of clips compiled for today’s TRON Night preview add up to 23 minutes and 49 seconds. Don’t worry, I didn’t take a stop watch, I read this fact on the BBFC website. Perhaps…
If those two-wheeled things are Lightcycles, then I assume this clip shows a Lightcar. It is a bit like Batman’s Tumbler, though, so maybe I should coin Lighttumbler instead. I can’t comment on this clip too much at the moment – being under embargo and all – but my full reaction to the TRON Night…
I have no idea how you make a cat sit still for this long enough. So all credit to Adam Rudegeair… Catcatwoman? Okay that just hurts my head…
Bleeding Cool have recieved a tip-off that Ron Clements and John Musker, directors of The Princess and the Frog, Treasure Planet, Aladdin and other Disney animated features, are working on an adaptation of Terry Pratchett’s Mort. If you don’t know the novel, here’s the official blurb from Pratchett’s site: Although the scythe isn’t pre-eminent among…
I could rattle off reasons to get excited about Megamind for hours, but here’s just a few: Guillermo del Toro came on board as a consultant The 3D is by Phil Captain 3D McNally and he’s one of, if not the best at what he does It features superheroes actually acting action-y and not whining…
Nimrod Antal’s Predators is released on UK DVD and Blu-ray-DVD-digital copy combo next Monday, the 1st of November. The Bleeding Cool review of the theatrical release was very positive, and my personal review of the home entertainment version should be with you on Monday. In the meantime, here’s a deleted scene that I like to…
Here’s a work-in-progress look at TRON Bambi, which is exactly what it sounds like. Once he’s been fully painted, I’m sure he’ll look quite striking but at the moment… I’m thinking ghost, I’m thinking tofu, I’m thinking ghost carved out of tofu. But it’s sorta kinda TRON day here at Bleeding Cool, so I though…
Sorry, Newsies, it looks like you won’t be making it to Broadway after all. According to The Laughing Place, Disney Theatrical are looking to replace their Mary Poppins stage show with a fresher flower, and the honour looks set to go to Alice in Wonderland. The irony is, that while Disney already have a musical…
Simon Bisley’s work has had quite a renaissance of late. For a while he seems to have slipped into self parody, his work garish and bold brushed, far from the intricate detail of mayhem he was famous for. But his work on Hellblazer has shown both a return to past form, and a desire to…
UPDATE: Click through on the image to get to super hi-res. You’ll be able to make out individual hairs. We’ve seen Chris Evans as Steve Rogers, out of the suit. We’ve seen the suit on a stunt man. Now we get to see Chris Evans in his Captain America costume, on the cover of this…
Cast in the “smarter big brother” role of Mycroft, Stephen Fry is currently on set for the production of Guy Ritchie’s upcoming Sherlock Holmes sequel, and as you would fully expect, he’s been Tweeting about it. Here’s a few days worth: On my way to first day’s filming. Warner’s publ ppl haven’t told me the…
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…
