A Flash Of Someone New On This Week’s Arrow
Dec 2nd
The CW’s youtube channel has given us a rather awesome clip today from this week’s episode of Arrow. It seems Oliver Queen won’t be the only hero in Star City this Wednesday, as a very special guest makes his way out from Central City. Yes, The Flash is set to make an appearance in Arrow this week! Well…perhaps not as The Flash, but certainly his alter ego, crime scene investigator Barry Allen, also known as the Silver Age version of The Flash. I’m personally rather excited, as they even have Barry’s talent for always being late with an excuse down More >
More DC Creative Team Changes
Sep 9th
DC Comics has just released their new solicits for December 2013, and it looks as if there are even more shake ups in the creative teams than the recently announced Batwoman change that saw J.H. Williams III and Haden Blackman out. So just who is out and who is in?
As we already mentioned, Williams III and Blackman have left Batwoman, and now we can say the title will at least be in good hands with writer Marc Andreyko (who actually takes over with November’s issue #25). It is still very sad to see Williams and Blackman leave after a spectacular More >
August 2013 Solicits For DC Comics
May 14th
DC has some final issues set to come out this August along with some special one-shots. Continuing DC’s big summer event of the Trinity War, there is a Trinity War Directors Cut special which features Geoff John’s script and Ivan Reis’ penciles. You can also look forward to the huge Batman Inc Special with its solicit directly below. Sadly a few titles are on their final issue, so fans will have to say goodbye to great series like Legion of Super-heroes, Demon Knights, Dial H, and Threshold. Hopefully this means there will be some awesome new titles in September, but More >
Comic’s Silver Age Star, Carmine Infantino, Passes Away
Apr 4th
Carmine Infantino was a comic creator that truly knew how to create. If ever there was an equivalent to Stan Lee at DC Comics, a man who created countless characters and helped shape the Silver Age of comic publishing, it was undoubtedly Carmine. Growing up in humble conditions post-depression, Carmine was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1925. His first published comic gig took place when he was merely 16, working on Timely Comic’s USA Comics #1 (inking his friend, Frank Giacoia’s pencils on “The Origin Of Jack Frost”, written by a young Stan Lee). Though Infantino also provided art for More >
DC’s Super Power Break Ups Of The New 52
Aug 31st
After the kiss that’s currently selling comics in Justice League #12, between Superman and Wonder Woman, DC is taking a bit of pride that they have created such love in their new universe. However, most of us will all remember that for years it wasn’t Clark Kent and Diana of Themyscira, but Clark and Lois Lane. So when DC’s blog today put out a list of their Super Power Couples, many fans moaned and groaned about the love lost when DC rebooted its universe into the New 52. Feeling your pain, while DC gloats of what they called “those perfect More >
DC Comics and Cryptozoic Entertainment Join Forces
Jun 29th
Cryptozoic and DC Comics are partnering to bring an amazing amount of DC heroes to you in the form of two card sets. With the first set of DC Comics trading cards to come out in three years and another deck building game coming from Cryptozoic, I’m sure this summer will be filled with some exciting new art and lots of fun game play.
The trading cards will be brand new art done just for this set of cards. It looks like it will have 52 full color trading cards with rarer sketch cards done by some of the leading artists More >

Starz Streams No More – Despite comments at the San Diego Comic Con panel for Spartacus thanking Netflix for a load of new fans coming into the series, The Wrap reports that Starz has decided not to renew it’s contract with the DVD rental company. This means, as of February 2012, Netflix customers will no longer be able to stream many of its More >
Enter the DCnU Today!
Aug 31st
[private]
Today Flashpoint #5 was released and with it saw the end of the DC universe as we know it. However, it didn’t feel like an ending. The fairly disappointing mini-series event brought us from our normal DC universe into the “flashpoint universe”, which was rather underwhelming and easily forgettable. The whole Flashpoint series seemed to almost make our transition between universes easier, as our desire to return to some sense of normal in the DC comics-verse is going to make the relaunch similar enough that we can nearly ignore that changes happened at all. Yet despite all this, the More >
