Here’s the latest image from the upcoming 20th Century Fox movie, Wolverine.  This one features Hugh Jackman getting out of the tub and being startled by the camera and crew standing around watching. Wolverine is scheduled to kick off the summer movie season, and will hopefully do well providing the legion of comic book fans don’t boycott because of that Watchmen lawsuit. There is a much larger, wallpaper worthy image over at Ain’t It Cool News

If you haven’t been keeping tabs of Sillof and what he’s doing in the custom action figure arena, you’ve already missed out on his Justice League by Gaslight.  For a while now, he’s been working on the Avengers, and he’s completed both Thor and Iron Man. This was designed as a companion piece of sorts to my Gaslight Justice League.  I am actually more of a Marvel fan then a DC fan.   The line is Victorian in nature, with slight industrial elements, and a flair of the American West of the 1800’s.  It is all designed to be a little…

How does the first page of Greg Rucka’s Batwoman start off? Here’s a snippet: THREE: And something slams into him from the wrong way, the way he should have been looking but wasn’t. RUSH is being blown back into the darkness as if sucked that direction. We see the RED BAT SYMBOL. The build up is pretty cool, can’t wait to see it this year. via The Song I Can Never Write

When Hollywood comes a calling to a comic publisher, it’s usually to take a property and turn it into a motion picture. In the case of The Remnant, the situation is reversed, as Stephen Baldwin heads to Boom! Studios to create a tale filled with suspense and the supernatural.

Press Release Gerard Way has managed to make quite a name for himself in the comics industry over the past year—racking up an Eisner for Best Limited Series, and a Harvey for Best New Series, for his breakthrough miniseries The Umbrella Academy: Apocalypse Suite.  In tandem with series artist, multiple-Eisner winner Gabriel Bá, Way has created a bizarre world which defies the space-time continuum, and pits a dysfunctional family of super-powered siblings against animated monuments, talking chimpanzees, a secret society of robot assassins, and each other. Right on the heels of the first issue of Way/Bá’s highly anticipated follow-up series,…

Despite the Ultimatum banner, there’s no Ultimatum story here (sorta) If readers were wondering how Ultimate Spider-Man would make the transition from the Return of Gwen Stacy story last issue, into the Ultimatum story line this issue, fear not, as nothing that takes place in Ultimatum appears in this issue.  Instead, this issue serves as a lead up to the crossover series, even though the crossover series has already begun.  Ah mega-events!  You gotta love ‘em!

I can’t believe this collection is already up to the 8th wave – I’m still trying to get my hands on a complete 2nd Wave set!  With each preview I receive, I get more excited about this line, especially the build a figure feature.  I know it isn’t a new concept, but it is for DC figures, and the one in Wave 8 is a knockout. Check out all the figure images after the jump!

This movie just keeps getting weirder and weirder.  The Guinea Pig Force (hence G-Force) is tasked with stopping a crazed man who is about to unleash an mechanized army.  Oddly, those mechanized robots transform from everyday devices.  With Bruckheimer behind this coming fiasco, it doesn’t surprise me that this is the result. Don’t believe me?  Check the trailer for yourself (before legal takes it down).

This isn’t as strange as the Marvel DCU that seems to throw everyone whenever it is mentioned on the site.  Instead, these are custom Watchmen figures cobbled together from the Marvel Legends line.  Looks pretty cool, even if The Comedian’s mustache features a bit of super-cheese. Want your own figures?  They’re up for auction on eBay right now (ends January 4, 2009) for $500. via Mike Sterling’s Progressive Ruin
