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.

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,…
Kate Atherton writes for Bleeding Cool: Making a regular appearance in the Top 10 of the Comic Network, anime series Bakugan Battle Brawlers airs six days a week.

HBO, Reubens and Callner are all coming together again for another new, can’t-fail special. According to the station, the team are to film the current Pee Wee show - at this moment…
There was a little trend for celebrity boxing a while back, if I remember correctly. I remember Todd Bridges vs. Vanilla Ice and Ricky Gervais vs. Grant Bovey. Bob Mortimer had a fight with somebody too – I don’t think there’s anything Bob Mortimer can’t do.* I doubt very much, however, that this trend is…
Keith Davidsen writes for Bleeding Cool. If you’re a Little Bleeder, you’ve heard the name David Lapham quite a lot. As one of the most distinct voices in the comic book business, he’s worked on such groundbreaking, gritty works as Stray Bullets, Young Liars, Detective Comics, Terror Inc., and Deadpool Max. His latest completed work…

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…
