Planet Hulk Trailer
Scheduled for a February 2010 release is an animated adaptation of the Greg Pak-penned 2003 Planet Hulk storyline form Marvel Comics. Below is the trailer. It’s not really doing it for me, though the Hulk Vs DVD was very enjoyable.
Radical Party
And the Comic-Con news keeps on coming, almost a week after it finished. This is impressive news though. Radical Publishing really are the new kids on the comics block, but have already made a solid name for themselves thanks to some bold painterly interior art, experienced creators and high concept series. They also know how [...]

Comic-Con Farewell
Well, it’s been a week since I arrived for San Diego Comic-Con,which celebrated its 40th anniversary this year. I’ve seen some of my favourite writers, such as Mark Waid and Alan Burnett.

Top Cow Panel
The last panel I went to at Comic-Con was the Top Cow one on Saturday. It was a pretty wild affair, with lots to say and not enough time. President Matt Hawkins, Publisher Filip Sablik and founder Marc Silvestri (complete with sunglasses indoors for extra cool) were the main speakers, but there were more people [...]

Slave Labor Graphics Panel
On Saturday at the Con, I visited 2 panels. Slave Labor Graphics (or SLG) was up first, as presented by founder Dan Vado. It was a casual and intimate affair, with Vado presenting a few short trailers for current and upcoming releases. I’ve been familiar with SLG for a while now but have only recently [...]

Comic-Con Friday
3 panels today. I kicked off this morning at Room32AB, which was filled with people.
