Quite the scoop for Bleeding Cool. Here’s a video, that’s just over 3 and a half minutes of Dan DiDio, Jim Lee, Grant Morrison and others talking excitedly about September’s 52 series debuts. It doesn’t reveal anything new, apart from a few seconds of Lee sketching, but I must say, their enthusiasm for the bold move [...]

Multiple Supermen by Dennis Culver
Comics Alliance has a great post featuring 19 different evil Supermen (and some women and boys). Yes, there’s some whacky Superman-centric villains from the Man of Steel’s past, but artist Culver makes them all look great. Below are three of my faves – The Negative Superman, Draaga and Saviour. See the rest here and Culver’s [...]
Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol Trailer
Cool. Brad Bird (Iron Giant, The Incredibles) directs his first live action film with this fourth instalment of the Mission Impossible franchise.

Barbara Gordon Runs Again
I first saw this book on holiday in Sydney last year when it was released. I’m a big fan of artist Adam Hughes and his gorgeous covers for DC Comics over the years. This 208 page book, entitled Cover Run features his best work of Catwoman, Wonder Woman, Power Girl and co. It was the [...]
The New Justice League
And here it is, the first (leaked) image of the new JLA come September, or rather August 31 when the series relaunches. We have the usual Big Seven, but with Cyborg replacing Martian Manhunter. There’s 8 other characters in the background, including Deadman, Hawkman, Firestorm and more, meaning the JLA will continue its usual changing [...]

Cool, huh?
The Dark Knight Rises Fan Teaser
Christopher Nolan’s last Batman film in his trilogy opens next year. We know Bane and Catwoman are in it, and maybe the former’s breaking of Batman’s back will be too, from the KnightFall storyline from the comics in the ’90s. This is a subtle, but cool teaser for now though, tying in important elements from [...]

Well, it did, but was pulled off after 3 episodes for some reason but has now been released on DVD in [...]
