Vertigo and WildStorm — both imprints of DC Comics — talked about their respective futures at a couple of Comic-Con panels. While Vertigo (led by editors Karen Berger and Will Dennis and a ton of creators) talked about an array of new projects and the Vertigo Crime imprint, WildStorm had just a little bit of…
At a convention known for its fans’ devotion and passion, Legion of Superheroes devotees are truly in a league of their own. Throughout Saturday’s “Legion of Superheroes Panel,” fans from across the globe shared their personal connections to the DC superteam with panelists, Paul Levitz, Mike Grell, Keith Giffen, Colleen Doran, Geoff Johns, Tom Bierbaum,…
DC Comics ran their first panel of the show on Thursday morning with DC: Superman: Man of Tomorrow. The panel was moderated by editor Matt Idelson and featured writers Geoff Johns, James Robinson, and Sterling Gates along with artists Jamal Igle and Renato Guedes (who was provided with a translator, yet never spoke). Johns kicked…
From today’s DC Nation panel at San Diego, Kai Connolly and Arthur Tebbel send the news that Kevin "Silent Bob" Smith will be doing a Batman five issue miniseries. Titled "Cacophony", it features the return of the villian Onomatopoeia from Smith’s run on Green Arrow, as well as Deadshot, Joker, Mr. Zsasz, and will be…
There’s a very small note in the New York Times (which has had a veritable shload of comics news lately) about DC imprint Vertigo, which is apparently adding a new imprint, or focus, or something. Vertigo will be doing some crime comics, though no projects are announced. Earlier this year Vertigo announced a new impetus…
DC Comics’ boring old Web site saw a big relaunch over the weekend, perhaps coinciding with the record-breaking debut of The Dark Knight film. Not a ton of new features on the site, which you can view right here, but it’s a whole lot prettier than the previous incarnation. There is a nice feature called…
Alan Moore talks movies over at Entertainment Weekly, and — surprise, surprise — he remains not so thrilled about the adaptations of his work. Here’s a particularly good exchange on his falling-out with DC: Has Warner Bros. tried to contact you about Watchmen? No, they’ve all been told not to. They get the message…. I…
[[[Fables]]] is one of the big successes of the current version of the Vertigo line, where every book has a Hollywood-style high concept: all males on Earth are killed – except one!; New York’s mayor can talk to machines!; Refugee fairytales live in the modern world! And, in another Hollywood-esque twist, Fables even has a…
This issue is titled "A third symbol now…" but a more accurate one would be "OK, so here’s exactly what’s going on." For six issues, Trinity was a fairly opaque book, with several seemingly disparate storylines and a completely mysterious large threat — the one screaming "Let me out!" in issue one. What do we…
The 2008 Electronic Entertainment Expo is underway. Just to start us off right, Midway released the first gameplay footage from the upcoming Mortal Kombat Vs DC Universe videogame. Since we’ve seen the Mortal Kombatants before, the video wisely focused on the DC Comics characters. Superman, Batman, Catwoman, and Flash were shown in some exciting footage…
Safe to say there isn’t a lot of love lost between Marvel and DC these days, with that writers’ spat over Secret Invasion and Final Crisis, then rumors that DC pulled out of an awards ceremony over a Marvel joke. Now over at Marvel’s Cup o’ Joe column at MySpace, editor Tom Brevoort has gone…
Warner Bros. is apparently looking to emulate the success Marvel has had making its own movies, such as Iron Man and Incredible Hulk. Variety is reporting some Warner honchos held meetings with people at DC Comics to try to develop a better pipeline from page to screen. Warners has never had such a strategy, and…
