According to Box Office Mojo the official release date for Steven Spielberg’s The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn in North America is December 23rd 2011, which also happens to be my birthday. Tintin will be released in countries such as Sweden, Netherlands and Germany in October 2011 as Tintin is rather popular [...]

Weaving to be Red Skull?
 |
|
Friday, March 12th, 2010
Hugo Weaving has sort of carved out a niche for himself playing the most despicable characters. Agent Smith in the Matrix, That giant Robot with teeth in Transformers and, uh, Noah in Happy Feet?
Alright, so I’m really only familiar with two of his roles as bad guy.
But the once and future Elrond is apparently this [...]
Frank Miller Ink Launches
|
|
Friday, March 12th, 2010
A while back Frank Miller hit twitter, and now he’s launched his very own website.
And while his first post is a memorium to Brittany Murphy, an actress who appeared in Sin City but who died late last year, I’m kind of interested to see what else he’ll put up.
It’s no secret that Mr. Miller has [...]

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010
It’s time for another week of comic insanity as it’s a X-Men themed week on Why are we thinking about this?
Where do the X-Men get their clothes from?
Ahh, the many colorful costumes of the X-Men are as varied as they are outrageous. From Wolverine’s bright yellow banana suit to Cyclops’ one piece body thong [...]
(Probable) Synopsis For Thor and Captain America
|
|
Tuesday, March 9th, 2010
Now that Marvel has missed the March 1 deadline for a Captain America casting announcement, who knows when we’ll hear the big news. Will it be John Krasinski (Captain America will make funny faces when he sees the Red Skull… Actually I really like this casting, to be honest.), or some other rising television actor? [...]

Sneak Peek: Jacques Tardi’s It Was the War of the Trenches
|
|
Monday, March 8th, 2010
I don’t think I’ve kept quiet about being a fan of master comicbook artist Jacques Tardi. The fact is – I want to go back and redo my review and then do another one on The Bloody Streets of Paris, because those two are some of the best crime – hell, some of the best [...]
Iron Man 2 Trailer… again…
|
|
Monday, March 8th, 2010
So after last night’s Oscars, Marvel premiered the newest Iron Man 2 trailer.
and wow.
Lots of great stuff there. Including the above pictured Travel-Iron-Suit which sort of looks like what Matt Fraction and Salvadore Larocca have done with their updated Iron Suit.
Check out the goodies below
So I think we can all agree that this will be [...]

Friday, March 5th, 2010
Today(ish) in Twitter is a regular column wherein our staff troll through the best of the 140 letter updates of the comic book world. ComicBookDaily is not responsible for the content of these tweets, but we will admit to laughing our collective bums off at some of them.
Paul Grist (Writer/Artist of Jack Staff – the [...]
Batman: Return Of Bruce Wayne All Covers Coloured (And Connected)
|
|
Friday, March 5th, 2010
Back in the day we were amazed at the brilliance that was Andy Kubert’s covers for Grant Morrison’s Return of Bruce Wayne. They were beautiful in their black and white; so much so that I almost didn’t really care if we ever saw them coloured.
Well, that’s changed.
Today over at the DCU Blog, the good folks [...]
You Must Read This: Kate Beaton’s Canadian Stereotype Comics
|
|
Friday, March 5th, 2010
I have a massive talent-crush on Canadian Cartoonist, History buff and all around awesome person Kate Beaton. Her webcomic Hark, A Vagrant was a recent(ish) discovery that has quickly become one of my most visited websites.
Well, yesterday she totally outdid herself with perhaps one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen (and I’m going to [...]
You Have To Read This: Toronto’s MightGodKing’s Review of JLA Cry For Justice
|
|
Friday, March 5th, 2010
I’ve been a long time reader of Mighty God King. His website (even if he gets way too into So You Think You Can Dance Canada) is packed with amazingly witty and insightful articles about all manner of things. He primarily spends a lot of time talking about comics and pitching his ideas for various [...]
Spoiler! Blackest Night #8 Cover
|
|
Thursday, March 4th, 2010
DC Comics revealed yesterday the cover to Blackest Night #8 by Ivan Reis. And like the cover to Green Lantern #52, it now makes sense as to why they didn’t share the cover when the original solicitations came out, as it spoils the end of BN #7.
Pretty groovy stuff eh?
As someone who wasn’t completely won [...]
