While it took a few weeks to cross the pond, we here at ComicMix are proud to announce the wedding of Batman and Wonder Woman, in a small ceremony a few weeks ago in Devon, England. Thanks to the folks at Geek-O-System for snagging some choice details. The guest list was a veritable who’s-who in comicdom. Wedding goers included several Supermen, Superwomen, the Incredibles, Iron Man and his son, Danger Mouse, Kick-Ass, The Pink Ranger, Wolverine, Rorschach, The Incredible Hulk and Captain America. Also in attendance, in a show of solidarity amongst the caped do-gooders were joined by villains like Poison Ivy, and the Master of Ceremonies… Batman’s nemesis The Joker. Geek-O-System also reported that fittingly, Robin was the best man, and the Power Puff Girls served as bridesmaids.

While no there was few reports on the reception, we can safely assume that anything the new power-couple didn’t get on their gift table can be afforded by Batman’s alter-ego, billionaire Bruce Wayne. Sources close to the wedding said the reception was a fairly casual affair, as many in attendance feared riling the Hulk into a fury. While the Joker stayed oddly well behaved throughout, he did try once to serve the wedding party joker-fish in a beurre blanc sauce… knowing full well of Wonder Woman’s lactose intolerance. Luckily, it was caught by her new husband, who quickly traded entrees with her, gladly giving up the peppery-poisoned arugula and radicchio salad prepared by Pamela Isely.

The newlyweds were said to have left on their new invisible Bat-Jet, on their way to the Magic Kingdom for their honeymoon; Where Wonder Woman was quoted as saying “I’m gonna show my husband just how ferocious we greeks are on our wedding night!”. Batman had nothing to say to this, but as the Joker noted… “Ole Bat’s has never smiled so wide in his life, and I’ve joker-gassed him about 20 times!”.

Rockstar Games’ western epic, Red Dead Redemption, is getting new downloadable content on September 21st.  The ‘Liars & Cheats’ pack includes new multiplayer mini games such as Liar’s Dice and Poker.  As a bonus, the Free Roam content (originally planned as a free download) will be included with this pack, expanding the game’s free roam multiplayer options.

According to Rockstar, the pack is no longer free “due to the platform
networks’ restrictions on numbers of free packs we [Rockstar Games] can give away”, but adding it to the previously announced ‘Liars & Cheats’ pack without any additional charge is awesome.  The entire pack will be $9.99 on Playstation Network or 800 Microsoft Points on Xbox Live.

For a list of the features available in this pack, hit the jump and get ready to expand your game on September 21st. (more…)

Seven-time Emmy Award winner Ed Asner reprises his Superman: The Animated Series/Justice League role as Granny Goodness in Superman/Batman: Apocalypse, the ninth entry in the popular, ongoing series of DC Universe Animated Original PG-13 Movies coming September 28, 2010 from Warner Premiere, DC Entertainment, Warner Bros. Animation and Warner Home Video.

Granny Goodness is the primary henchwoman for the evil lord Darkseid, ruler of the distant planet Apokolips and a cruel, ominous being even more powerful than Superman. Asner first voiced the role for four episodes of Superman: The Animated Series, and returned to those evil female roots for two episodes of Justice League and Justice League Unlimited.

Asner’s storied career boasts seven Emmy Awards – three supporting actor honors for his role as Lou Grant on The Mary Tyler Moore Show, two more as the title character in Lou Grant, and a pair of awards recognizing individual supporting performances in the landmark miniseries Roots and Rich Man, Poor Man. He has won more acting Emmys than any other performer, and is the only actor to ever win Emmy Awards for playing the same character in both a comedy and a drama.

The five-time Golden Globe winner also served as President of the Screen Actors Guild from 1981-1985.

Once again, the fine folks at the DC Source Blog have given us a sneak peak at yet another cryptic image. Well, not so much 1 image and a collection of White Lantern covers that have/are/will be gracing comic retailers shelves throughout the nation. As always, we here at Comicmix like to help you, our devoted fans, to deciphering the latest Dan DiDio “figgur’ it out” poster. Above you’ll find the piece (and for a larger version, click here) and below you’ll find our predictions. Let the snarking observing begin!

• Take note that Jade sits in a row with Captain Boomerang, Reverse Flash, Osiris, and Max Lord. This proves she’s evil. Like all women.
• Hawk and Deadman both sit perched ready to act. This is a signal both have to go to the bathroom. Or stone chairs wreck havok on one’s posterior.
• Note that Firestorm has no mouth. This is a signal that Geoff Johns isn’t sure how to write dialogue for a half black intelligent Jason Rauch and half white douchebag Ronnie Raymond. When they combine, Firestorm is better off not saying anything at all… and looking cool.
• Hawkman and Hawkgirl aren’t looking at each other. Looks like someone forgot the put the seat down… and someone should stop buying her makeup at retail. Museum curating isn’t a well paying gig, damnit!
• Martian Manhunter and Maxwell Lord sit opposite each other, contemplating how long they have until people remember they don’t care about them. 
• Aquaman sits aloof, casually presenting the 180th design of his trident.
• Behind all these resurrected folks is a tableau of the captured avatars, Necron, and that creepy hooded midget. This actually isn’t a clue… it’s a piece painted by Bruce Wayne while he was bored in the past. Batman can do anything.
• Within that tableau, did you catch the white hand of creation Krona saw? We didn’t either.
• If you stare long enough and lose your focus, like a magic eye, you can see Darkseid, Necron, Superboy Prime and the Anti-Monitor giving you the finger.

We hope that helps you figure out what’s going on, in the continuing Brightest Day saga. If you spot anything too, let us know in the comments below!

As a zombie fan, no other comic series has appealed to my apocalyptic sensibilities more than Robert Kirkman’s “The Walking Dead”.  After hearing the AMC would be making a television series of it (helmed by “Shawshank Redemption” director Frank Darabont) well, my little nerd heart exploded like a zombie headshot.  Now the series has a premiere date (fittingly set at 10pm on Halloween night) and a debut trailer.  if you were at the San Diego Comic Con, this is the same trailer you saw.  If not…well, salivate with brain-lust at the visuals and story herein.  Halloween can’t come fast enough.
