Guess who’s coming back soon? Yeah, it’s the original Goddamn Batman!

Also, this Andy Kubert image is all sorts of amazing. Those cavemen don’t stand a chance against Bruce Wayne. I seriously can’t wait for this series by Grant Morrison to come out.

I’ve created a wallpaper of that image by the way. It’s for 16:9 screens and it can be downloaded here.

I may be indifferent to most of Mark Millar’s works, but Kick-Ass is one of my favorite comics. I just find it funny how the movie gets finished first before the graphic novel. I’m pretty sure all of us comic book nerds have dreamed of going out in a costume and fighting crime. In fact, you can all place bets on which Comicgasm writer will snap first and do a Kick-Ass! (My money’s on Fiel)

Speaking of the Kick-Ass movie, here’s the trailer. Relish it. It’s fucking awesome.

Kick-Ass, directed by Matthew Vaughn and starring Aaron Johnson, Nicolas Cage, Chloe Moretz and Christopher Mintz-Plasse, opens in April 2010.

HOLY FUCK. HOLY, HOLY FUUUUCK.

(Sorry, still picking my face up from the floor to make a suitable write-up)

A moment of silence please.

Yes, you’re looking at Batman and Robin looking down at two women holding their crotches. And yes, it is exactly what it looks like. Read the rest of this entry »

Okay, okay, I know I still haven’t finished my Go-Beerkada: The Rise Of The Jhologs review yet, but this piece of news caught my eye and I really can’t resist blogging about it.

So, over at Marvel, the X-Books are preparing for this big event called X Necrosha. Here’s the solicitation for the one shot that’ll kick off the crossover, helpfully provided by IGN:

Death has come to the X-Men. The one true Black Queen has returned, and she wants nothing less than every soul of mutantkind…dead or alive. And everyone that’s ever crossed Selene is going to pay. The dead rise, familiar faces haunt mutants across the world, and Selene takes her final steps into becoming a god.

It all begins here in a full-length X-FORCE extravaganza, and continues in the pages of next month’s issue of X-FORCE…but the shockwaves of this terrifying event will be felt in NEW MUTANTS and X-MEN: LEGACY as well, and those reverberations begin here in two all-new bonus tales.

… really, Marvel? I love zombies and all, but… what the flying fuck?

To quote this article from ComingSoon.net:

“Samuel L. Jackson has buried the hatchet with Marvel Entertainment, making a deal to play the role of Nick Fury in Iron Man 2, and potentially many other films.

Jackson’s deal is a long-term commitment to play Fury, the leader of the espionage unit S.H.I.E.L.D. His deal contains an option to play the character in nine future Marvel superhero films, efforts that are expected to include The First Avenger: Captain America, Thor, The Avengers, toplining a possible S.H.I.E.L.D. movie, and potential sequels.”

What say gentlement? Is this awesome news or what? HELL YEAH!
