An Action Comics #1 CGC 6.5 has sold this week for $625,000 at Comiclink.  I almost stuck a Volume 1 in that title, but you can insert your own Action 1's

They've been here for years.  And... well, you can make up the rest yourself.  Here's an updated list of Bleeding Cool's (Don't Call It A) Reboot Stories:

Is there anything happening in the wonderful world of comics besides #dcreboot? Of course there is -- Fear Itself, Captain America, X-Men First Class

For over 25 years, New York City has held an annual Fleet Week in appreciation of United States Marine Corps and Navy service members.  The week includes

It was actually a pretty eventful day even before Rich set this fateful news chain reaction into motion here about 14 hours ago.  And there are Things

Well then. I think that was the busiest day on the comics internet since Bleeding Cool's inception. And it was certainly Bleeding Cool's busiest day ever,

Still not done quite yet. The full version of that Jim Lee JLA art has emerged over the past couple hours. I first saw it from the sharp-eyed DC Women

DC has just confirmed much of what Bleeding Cool has been telling you this morning and added another bombshell or two: This year, change is in the air at

In day 2 of the X-Men: First Class skywriting campaign, the logos spread from LA to other parts of California. You have to wonder if they'll start

Yesterday, Bleeding Cool told you about an interesting X-Men First Class marketing campaign that involved skywriting the X-Men circle-X logo over the

First Real Life Deadpool, now this. A man in a Spider-Man mask was part of an armed robbery of a Wilmington, Delaware 7-11 Friday night.  Dana DiFilippo

There's been lots of talk around the comic/movie internet recently about just how certain subplots that seem to be taking root in the Marvel Studios

So: People seem to be treating this as a spoiler. But if it's true, it's hard to imagine it won't be a part of the Avengers movie marketing (unless it's a

It's Flashpoint Friday again, and today's pre-weekend missive is another interesting mystery. As we've been telling you, DC Comics is setting themselves

Speaking of Green Lantern marketing, as we were just yesterday, I must say I'm almost disappointed to see that Verizon, Google, or someone of that nature

As Rich said earlier today, that Strange Adventures cover does look a bit strange as printed, and not for the intended adventurous reason.  Of course,

He seems to be done with the Kick Ass part of the equation, according to what he told Brendon earller. He said lots of other things too, about X-Men First

In retrospect it should have been no surprise that Adrianne Palicki in booty shorts was going to be the top trend for the day, but I actually kicked this

The thing that jumps out at me the most about Brendon Connelly's embargo-induced non-review of X-Men First Class is the reference to X2.  Because I've
