Wake Up! It’s Free Comic Book Day! The annual comic nerd holiday where you get to go to your local comics shop and pick up some stuff (amount of items you can take for free are set by the store) from this list. So, get your pants on (maybe a shirt too) and get to where you need to be, at a comics shop. Buy some stuff while you’re there too. This day is about industry awareness after all.
I’m hoping to get Star Wars Serenity and Atomic Robo & Friends. And the Mouseguard Hardcover if I’m lucky.
The title says a lot. I am very very excited for the DC Nation block on Cartoon Network. Hey, Cartoon Network, when is that going to premiere? Check out the short below.
Tom Morello, guitarist from Rage Against the Machine, has a brand new comic out on Dark Horse Comics. It came out this past Wednesday and is only $1.99. Check out the synopsis from Dark Horse’s website and a trailer for Orchid below.
So my speculation was wrong. That isn’t Juggernaut on the Uncanny X-Men cover, but Colossus with a Juggernaut helmet on, I’m confused. Anyway, joining Colossus and Emma Frost is Colossus’ sister Magik. Side note: It appears that Jubilee and Storm will be in the normal old X-Men.
DC released this trailer for their New 52 the other day and it’s pretty cool. It doesn’t really much for the comics though, it pretty much just tells you what titles are going to be available. Blastr, where I first saw it, said they should make clips like this for some of their titles setting them up likes movies. I couldn’t agree more, that could be huge for the series.
Check out the trailer below, and I think I said this before, but I am going to be doing a brand new show called “52 Pick-Up” where I read and talk about all of the issues from the new 52.
A new Vertigo series from Brian Azzarello and Eduardo Risso (the creators of 100 Bullets) is coming this fall.
The first issue comes out in October and is going to be $1, so you have no excuse not to buy it.
Set in a post-apocalyptic near future, SPACEMAN tells the story of Orson – a hulking, lonely loser who spends his days collecting scrap metal and dreaming of the startrekking life he was promised.
That is, until he finds himself at the center of a celebrity child kidnapping case. Seeing his chance to be a hero, Orson takes matters into his own hands…but will his actions only cause more heartbreak?
Check below for the second cover.
On the recently recorded 13th episode of The Never Not a Nerd Show we talked about this teaser image above. I have some speculation that maybe Johnny Storm never even died. We didn’t see his dead body, he was just laying obscured in the background.
Then Marvel released the covers below.
Here it is, here’s the all new cover featuring the all-new Ultimate Spider-Man, Miles Morales! This is the variant cover though, the “real” cover is below the cut, so check that out too.
This issue is going to hit stores September 7th.
What the hell is going on with this one? Is someone exploding in the background? Are Wolverine’s claws in that unfortunate person next to him? Wolverine does look awesome though.
Anybody have any speculation on who is joining him on this cover?
DC has revealed a few covers from their new 52 recently. One of them that interests me even more than the others is New Guardians. Kyle Rayner will be leading a team consisting of a member from each lantern corps.
Check below for a couple more.
