Welcome back to The Rundown, our daily breakdown on comic news stories we missed from the previous day. Have a link to share? Email our team at rundown@multiversitycomics.com.
– Yesterday saw the release of solicits from Marvel, Image, and DC. There’s a ton of goodies for those of you who want to know what comics are coming up for May but the biggest news might be that Becky Cloonan are doing a Punisher series together. Where’s that “Shut up and take my money!” meme when you need it?
– Speaking of solicitations, Archie Comics are bringing back their spookiest titles. “Afterlife with Archie” and “Sabrina” #5 are coming back this May.
– After Deadpool‘s outrageous hype and success, Fox is thinking about making Wolverine 3 R-rated, if this flyer from their Toy Fair presentation is any indication. Somewhere, Zack Snyder is wondering why he couldn’t do that for Dawn of Justice.
– Did you know Shane Black is directing a Predator movie? That… that actually sounds pretty neat.
– The Simpsons is going to do a live segment in an episode airing this May where Homer answers fan questions. Apparently motion capture technology is going to be used on Dan Castellaneta who will be performing live. This is going to either be a breakthrough in animation technology that changes the game, or the creepiest three minutes of your life.
– Do you want to see Dolph Lundgren in the trailer for Kindergarten Cop 2? Yeah. We know you do.
