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 either david@multiversitycomics.com or brian@multiversitycomics.com.

– Martin Donovan, a veteran actor known for roles on Weeds, Hannibal, and Homeland, has joined the cast of Ant-Man as an undisclosed, but “pivotal,” role. Any guesses? Share ’em in the comments!
– Could Marvel Studios hold Thor and Captain America out of Avengers 3? That is one solution, proposed by Bad Ass Digest, to the upcoming contractual business of keeping the actors in those roles beyond the number of films they are signed on for – skip a movie here and there, allowing the actors to still be under contract for a longer period of time. It is an interesting theory, even if I don’t exactly subscribe to it.
– i09 speculates that Fox could be working on a live-action X-Men television series. While they have very little factual evidence to back this up, it makes total sense to me.
– Speaking of the Fox X-Men films, fear not! Deadpool will fit into the same cinematic universe as the other X-Films and, perhaps the upcoming Fantastic Four.
– In a bit of a kick in the pants to creators everywhere, the Supreme Court will not hear the case involving the Superman copyright between DC and the Shuster Family.
– Dynamite released two teasers today, both drawn by Darwyn Cooke, with the main characters blacked out. “He is the forest!” and “He’s Just a Man!” are the titles of the images, with the #AllHail hashtag appearing on the bottom of both images. My interest certainly is piqued.
– Dredd is getting a sequel (of sorts) in the form of a 7-part webseries from Adi Shankar, executive producer on the film. The series is set to revolve around the Dark Judges, and may or may not include Karl Urban.
– Nerdist has an exclusive look at a new “Futures End” teaser which, in 6 parts, shows why this event has been so much fun. Look for the teaser in the back of this week’s DC titles.
– Speaking of “Futures End,” the next three issues covers’ form a triptych of images that span the entire series, and the pre-Flashpoint DCU.
– After 15 years, “Naruto” is ending. The manga, by Masashi Kishimoto, is calling it quits after nearly 700 installments appeared in “Shonen Jump.” Comics will be worse off with its absence.
– Boom has agreed to publish “The Woods,” by James Tynion IV and Michael Dialynas, for the foreseeable future, until it reaches its planned conclusion. Congrats, gents!
– Matt Kindt’s “Pistolwhip,” originally published by Top Shelf, will be reprinted by Dark Horse, and will include the complete collection of stories in the series.
– And, finally, pick your fun link of the day: DC characters in “Saturday Evening Post” homages, or college students breaking a world record for most people dressed as Spider-Man.
