By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 18, 2010 | News

The above trailer appeared this week at GamesCon 2010 over in Germany. Featuring new footage of the DC Trinity, it is appropriately titled “acrophobia” (i.e. fear of heights). The trailer gives you a good look at what the possibilities are in game for both being a hero and a villain, and certainly make the game […]

Ares Returns (Surprise?) For Chaos War

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 18, 2010 | News

It looks like we’re getting quite a theme with Chaos War right now: dead heroes (and maybe villains) coming back to life. Sound oddly familiar? Anyway, it looks like even being ripped in half can’t keep the God of War out of Chaos War! So Ares is coming back for a limited series in October. […]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 18, 2010 | News

For those who don’t know, Chaos War features the return of Mikaboshi, God of Chaos, with his own army. He’s set to conquer everything! […]

Brightest Day Variants Creating Curious Puzzle

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 18, 2010 | News

As many people have begun to notice, the variant images of returned heroes and villains are beginning to form a shape in between when placed together. To be honest, when I first saw the Aquaman variant, I just that “geez, that is an ugly variant.” I still agree to that on their own, but the […]

Betty Draper Is Emma Frost

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 18, 2010 | News

X-Men: First Class could quite possibly the biggest cast of mutants in cinema history at this point. Every day we get a new cast member, and yesterday Deadline reported that Mad Men actress January Jones will be Emma Frost. We had heard rumors of Alice Eve taking the part, but apparently negotiations fell through with […]

As you may have noticed, Kelly Sue DeConnick is writing a mini-series about Osborn in prison. And guess what?

Edgar Wright’s ‘Ant-Man’ Still Happening

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 17, 2010 | News

Some people were worried that Scott Pilgrim‘s apparent lack of success in theaters might hurt future comic movies of smaller characters/books.

CLiNT Magazine Get’s A … Trailer… Thing

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 17, 2010 | News

Mark Millar’s UK only magazine has a trailer-esque video promo-ing it today. The trailer promises more Kick-Ass, more Mark Millar insanity, Jonathan Ross, and Frankie Boyle (who has a magnificent beard). While we at MC aren’t overseas and won’t be able to partake in the insanity that comes with a subsciption to CLiNT, we hope […]

Alpha Flight Returns – Still Dead

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 17, 2010 | News

Last week, we had a brief laugh at Tom Brevoort reiterating that Alpha Flight was staying dead. We assumed that this meant we’d never see them again, but with yesterday’s Dead Avengers announced we should have seen this coming: Alpha Flight is coming back, albeit as dead people, for Chaos War. The last time we […]

Rafael Albuquerque’s Superboy #1 Cover is Perfect

By David Harper | Aug 16, 2010 | News

A new Superboy series starring Connor Kent is kicking off in November and is sure to be a must buy because of Jeff Lemire’s name being on the cover (as well as artist Pier Gallo), but now readers have an even better reason to buy it: this absurdly amazing cover to the first issue from […]

The Dark Knight Becomes a White Lantern

By David Harper | Aug 16, 2010 | News

DC unveiled their solicits for November’s Brightest Day titles, and they included one heck of a doozy: White Lantern Batman. I have no idea exactly how this is going to work…but I’m intrigued. How about that cover by David Finch though? Evidently Batman kept up with his pilates while being zigged and zagged through the […]

Stan Lee and Paul Cornell’s Soldier Zero Covers Revealed

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 16, 2010 | News

I would argue that out of all the new Stan Lee character books announced, Soldier Zero is the one we at MC are most excited for. Why? Quite simply, Paul Cornell is on writing details. Put Cornell into anything and he’ll turn into gold, as fellow writer Josh Mocle once said to me. That’s a […]
