Well I must have done something right. Cryptozoic sent me the Locke & Key card game today. And I opened it. And filmed myself doing it too. Welcome to the new Locke & Key unboxing event…
Why The Hell Isn’t There A My Little Pony Comic Book?
Aaron and Mike of A Comic Show want to help fix what’s wrong with the comics industry, they swear they’ll start a regular bombastic op/ed column here on Bleeding Cool. But first, they feel they must follow their hearts (hooves), and use their connections to get a My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic comic made!…
Jim Lee’s Hidden Tribute To Carla
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.

Witness The Craziness For Yourself: Video Of The Francis Ford Coppola Panel From Comic-Con
Sing it with me: Nosferatu… Nosferatu… Nosferatu… Francis Ford Coppola’s panel at Comic-Con this year was flat-out baffling. Ambitious, perhaps, but maddeningly ill-conceived. These videos of the panel are edited in such a way that no footage is presented. As a result, you won’t get to hear Francis and Val singing, or several other completely…

Monkey Mayhem – Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes “Third Act Sizzle Reel” From Comic-Con
This is where The Rise gets real. As premiered during the Apes panel on Thursday, here’s a new trailer for RotPotA, as the cool kids aren’t calling it. This Comic-Con teaser showcases some of the violent simian revolution, the epic third-act stuff in which the monkey madness becomes a maelstrom of mayhem. Marvelous. These scenes…
Doctor Who Trailer And Clip From Comic-Con
The following trailer and clip are presented as recently premiered in the huge, overpopulated Doctor Who panel in Comic-Con’s Hall H. Because Who, it seems, is the new Twilight. The clip comes from the eleventh episode, The God Complex, as written by Toby Whitehouse. I’m amazed by its odd mix of story elements and really…
Visualizing The Avengers: Full Width, All Character Poster Is Completed With The Hulk
Michael Moran has just put this beauty in my inbox. Nice to see Marvel working that “Assemble!” angle right down to the bone. Click through for full size. Why, hello Mr. Hulk. Thank Michael for his wild and crazy photoshop skills on Twitter.

At San Diego Comic Con, Marvel has confirmed previous reports of a new Defenders series by Matt Fraction and Terry Dodson. And while this does actually have Namor… these are not all the Defenders. This is the team that goes after the “ticking clocks” of the Marvel Universe.

The cover to Fear Itself #6, folks. Thor going toe to toe with a certain serpent… who of course does not have toes. After Fear Itself comes Battle Scars… with lots of vampire action. And lots of after effects of the culmination of Fear Itself. And check for the big difference between this and the…

Bill Willingham, Phil Jimenez And Adam Hughes Launch Fables Spinoff, Fairest
Fables has grown into DC/Vertigo’s largest franchise, spinning off into series upon series, with games and TV shows also in the offing. But now all those spin-off mini-series will appear as an ongoing series-of-mini-series called Fairest, announced at the Fables panel at San Diego Comic Con. A consolidation if you will. An attempt at increased…
The Motorbiking Dog Of San Diego Comic Con Returns… With A Friend
We all loves the motorbiking dog of San Diego Comic Con. Well, last night outside the Omni hotel, he was back. With a friend in tow… play that funky video!
“I Don’t Know Why I Think I’m A 14 Year Old Girl With Superpowers” – The Joss Whedon Dark Horse Panel At San Diego Comic Con

New Sherlock Viral? Or Something Geekier?
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…
Frank Miller Redraws The Dark Knight
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…
The Amazing Spider-Man Is Tidied Up A Little By An Official Blurb
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…
Joe Madureira Wants To Draw A Zelda Comic Series
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…
The Robins – A New Comic From Jeff Lemire?
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…
Warner Bros. Nix ElfQuest Movie, Pin Blame On The Hobbit
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…
