News

AMC will be adding another comic adaptation to its line up with Preacher by Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon. I never got into this series (I bought the first few issues–I wonder how much #! will be soon?), but I know it’s a favorite to many out there in the comic book community.
The voice of Jarvis will now be seen as the Vision in the Avengers sequel. Read how the Vision can solve the Robert Downey Jr. problem.
Ben McKenzie was cast as James Gordon in Fox’s Gotham. Is anyone else tired of all these tv and movie casting announcements? I don’t even care to watch this anymore.
Guardians of the Galaxy hasn’t even debuted in theatres, but already there’s talk of a sequel? I know we comic book fans hunger for more and more validation, I mean, big screen entertainment based on our favorite characters, but come on.
Finally, Bergen Street Comics announced that it would only supply Big 2 comics via subscription only. The co-owner stated he wanted to “move away from double shipping, editorially driven, artist-swapping, inconsistent, tied into events/gimmicks comics”. What do you think of this move?
