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.

– This is beyond cool: congrats to Mark Waid for his now longest uninterrupted run ever for any writer or artist on Daredevil. His work on the book is beloved, and here’s hoping he and Chris Samnee keep this party going well into the future.

– Pairing nicely with their first look deal with 20th Century Fox’s film division, Boom! has now partnered with their TV division to bring their comics to life in TV form. Congrats to everyone at Boom! Studios, and the creative types who will benefit from it!

– As he tends to do, Tom Spurgeon covers a subject in the best way, as he breaks down the controversy surrounding Yale Stewart and his charity print AND his perhaps less than charitable sharing of rather private pictures. Great stuff.

– Corey Blake looks at what went wrong with “New Warriors”, and the curse of B-Listers in comics. It’s a nice little read at Robot 6, although I’m surprised he didn’t bring up the also canceled “Superior Foes of Spider-Man” (although I imagine they are more F-Listers).

– In case you need A LOT MORE detail on “The Multiversity” #1, David Uzumeri goes next level as he annotates the first issue for Comics Alliance.

– I’m sure it will look better on film, but this super muscley new Superman suit Henry Cavill is wearing in “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” is a bit weird. But brighter!

– These new pug superhero prints Mike Norton put together for September cons are freaking awesome. Someone get me that “Fastest Pug Alive” one, stat!
