Zach Snyder Gives First Look at Batman and Batmobile

Finals are over!!! Yes! Yes! Ye..oh wait back to working on a top-notch website dedicated to movie and comics news I guess. Yes that sounds good to me because tons of big things are happening right now in the universe revolving around those things. Today is good because we get first look at Zack Snyder's Batman and batmobile.

Director Zack Snyder tweeted yesterday a little teaser image of the batmobile under a tarp prepped to be unveiled today. Well we were in for a treat!

Full pic of suit and batmobile after jump along along with a lighter color version to see full suit

Ellen Page Cast As Robin in Batman Vs. Superman!!

This might come to shock to many people but they announced today that Ellen Page has been cast as the boy (girl?) -wonder in Batman Vs. Superman. They are really getting edgy in this whole film with Jesse Eisenberg playing Lex Luthor and Ben Affleck as the man himself, Batman.

The news was broke today in a press conference that had Page in attendance. She stated that "Robin has always been a character I loved in comics" and continued to say "I really wanted the part so bad and I went to Zack and told him my take on the character and he loved it,"  She went into detail about how she wanted the part over Kitty Pryde since the beginning but Nolan wouldn't have the character in his story. She thought she would seize the day with Snyder on board to direct it. Hey it seems to have worked!

Also she said some really intersting things at the end of it with a little comment about how she wants to "stay with the character for a long time even into her later age and BEYOND." Beyond as in Batman Beyond?? Say what!?!

Oh and April Fools!!!!! Don't believe a word of this because its not true. Except the Lex Luthor bit. I still can't believe thats true....early April Fools with that one, huh Warner Bros?? (elbow jab in ribs).

Now back to serious news for the day...

Watch Scene from Son of Batman Movie + Interview with Jason O'Mara

DC All Access released a video that includes a pretty funny interview with Batman himself, Jason O'Mara, and a exclusive clip from the Son of Batman animated movie. Also, stick around til end of video to get some pretty cool news from other DC comics interviews and news.

Son of Batman is based on Grant Morrison's storyline that introduced us to the anti-lovable son of Bruce Wayne, Damian Wayne. I personally love the little d-bag kid but thats just me (and like everyone else...but I ask myself why all the time...)

The cast of great voices include the return of Jason O'Mara as Batman, Morena Baccarin as Talia Al Ghul, Thomas Gibson as Deathstroke, and Giancarlo Esposito (Gus from Breaking Bad) as Ra's Al Ghul. That is quite the cast!

Son of Batman will hit Video (who says Video anymore) on Blu-ray Combo Pack, DVD, and Digital Download on May 6th.

First Trailer for Son of Batman

The next film in the DC Animated Universe coming out is Son of Batman. Based on the epic Grant Morrison story of introducing Damian Wayne, son of Batman and Talia Al Ghul into the universe. Well, to please the fans of everyone wanting to see a Animated version soon will get some snack food. A first trailer of it was released earlier today and looks really great.

Damian Wayne was a very controversial character to introduce not only because its Batman's Son, but because he was just such a little brat. I have, mentioned this multiple times here, that I have grown to really like Damian over the years and was slightly (really) upset they killed him off. I am excited to see more of him even if it's on film.

The storyline of the film will revolve around the famous 2006 story-arc that introduced us to the little brat we all came to love. 

Expect Son of Batman to come out on Blu-ray, DVD, and digital download late spring. You could see it sooner when it premiere at WonderCon over Easter weekend in Anaheim, California. (not like theres any other Anaheim.)

Batman vs. Superman Has Its Wonder Woman!

Warner Bros. has announced that actress/model Gal Gadot (Fast and Furious 6) has been cast as Wonder Woman in the upcoming Batman vs. Superman film.

Director Zack Snyder stated: "Wonder Woman is arguably one of the most powerful female characters of all time and a fan favorite in the DC Universe. Not only is Gal an amazing actress, but she also has that magical quality that makes her perfect for the role. We look forward to audiences discovering Gal in the first feature film incarnation of this beloved character."

This casting isn't a huge shock because the character has been rumored for the past couple of weeks to be making some sort of appearance in the film. Whether it be a short cameo or a full main character remains to be seen. My guess is a character that comes more into play later in film or next film , perhaps a solo film? ehhh

Gal does have the strong female lead qualities in her, but for Wonder Woman it isn't the worst casting but may not be the best cast. I will reserve my judgement until I see footage of her.

Batman vs Superman will have Henry Cavill as Superman/Clark Kent facing off against Ben Affleck's Batman/Bruce Wayne. Expect the epiciness to hit screens on July 17, 2015.

6 Reasons Ben Affleck Can Rock Batman

Ok I know I missed like the biggest news of geek world since they announced the movie itself at Comic-Con, but lets get it out of the way shall we. Ben Affleck has been cast as Batman in the Man of Steel sequel titled Batman vs. Superman. That sentence is usually a joke thrown around but it is quite real and happening. I for one (of not many actually) think it could work! Here are my reasons why Ben Affleck can rock being Batman.

We Were Wrong In the Past 

This will be just about everyone's main point of defense for the casting choice. It is also one of the best in almost any case. When Michael Keaton was cast as the Dark Knight himself as well, we freaked out because we couldn't fathom Mr. Mom being Bruce Wayne, let alone, a dark figure like Batman. It turned out amazing and he is still one of the best guys to wear the cowl. He wasn't the only one either. Quite possibly the best villain of all-time, the Joker,  got a aussie romance movie guy cast as him. That turned out to be one of the best casting decisions in recent memory, if not history. He got an academy award for it even! 

It's Not the Same Ben From 10 Years Ago

Ben Affleck's career is something of dreams. Both nightmares and the sweetest of sweet dreams. He sprouted up in the 90s with some low-budget comedies and hit big around Armageddon and took off from there. His acting abilities didn't really show up great until Changing Lanes. He started showing some abilities. He took a dive with Gigli and Surviving Christmas. Lets not bring those up. He struck gold in 2006 with Hollywoodland (as Superman ironically) and hit after hit from then on! Also an academy award! (I know I keep bringing that up like it means something). 

He Has Been Here Before 

Ben Affleck is no stranger to wearing a skin-tight suit and mask. Growing up a huge Daredevil fan, he just had to take the role on. Don't get me wrong, Daredevil wasn't a great movie by any means, but it wasn't as bad as people seem to remember it. The film was full of missteps but mostly accredited to the director rather than Affleck. He was a great Matt Murdock but ehh Daredevil. That for Batman's sake, is a good thing because he knows what works and doesn't for him. He's been around the block.

He Will Bring More to Table Than Just Looks 

This guy is extremely multitalented. He wrote one of my all-time favorite 90s movies (Good Will Hunting) and directed and starred in another two great films (The Town, Argo). He has pushed himself to be better at everything involving a movie. Writer/Director/Actor is a big thing to grasp and he's seemed to master it. So having an academy award winning writer/director starring in a film, you are bound to hopefully get some feedback if you're Zack Snyder. That is like having 2 directors on set.

He Looks the Part Perfectly

Ben Affleck was chosen for more than his A-list name. He looks the part of a seasoned Bruce Wayne billionaire playboy and could pull off the The Dark Knight body-type and look. That jawline was made for a superhero mask. He is working out 2 hours a day for the part . So no doubt he will have the current Batman body-type that is popular in comics. I can see the Bruce Wayne part being fantastic but the Batman part is going to be a little hard to picture until I see some footage. He should have learned by now what made his Daredevil not that great.

Ben Affleck has caused quite a stir and revolt from Batfans over the weekend. I have to keep a more open mind about things because you can't just a character based on previous work. He isn't Uwe Boll! (fellow Boll haters know what i'm talking about.) I do think there could have been possibly better choices but there could be so many worse choices as well.

What is your thoughts? 

Pick & Pull: July 31, 2013 - 3 Guns, Batman, Collider + More!

It's the return of the much loved weekly editorial for best comics to check out this week! Pick & Pull is back and just in time to see some great things in the making. This week we have Neil Gaiman joining Marvel in a way, 3 Guns is better than 2, and it's getting dark in here.

3 Guns #1 (of 6) - This is a sequel to 2 Guns (catchy title really). This time around they throw in a girl for you know more jokes and battles between each other. Looks pretty promising to be fun and action packed.

Batman Annual #2 - The first annual was pretty emotional with Mr. Freeze getting sweet and touching origins. So it's only natural to pick up the 2nd issue and see where we will go. This team has never really let us down in the emotional, action, or drama side of things.

Captain Midnight #1 - This is really part of the trend by Dark Horse to bring older characters back to life, but with Joshua Williams behind it, I have to pick it up!

Guardians of the Galaxy #5 - They are bringing one of Neil Gaiman's characters into the Marvel universe in a big way and it all starts here. Check out Angela in this issue!

Sheltered: A Pre-Apocalyptic Tale #1 - The title is just the cool strange part of it!

Collider #1 - This one snuck up on me and sounded so intriguing to sic-fi reader in me. It's like a mixture of Fringe and other sci-fi goodies.

David S. Goyer Gives Title ideas for Man of Steel Sequel Featuring Batman!

Warner Bros. blew everyone out of the water last weekend when they announced that the sequel to Man of Steel will feature the eagerly wanted return of Batman to the silver screen. I honestly don't know how somebody could not be freaking out right now at the thought of this actually happening!

Man of Steel scribe David S. Goyer was announced to return for the sequel featuring Batman. He gave a little interview and some thoughts on what the title could possibly end of being.

 "So the next film we’re making, we’re already in pre-production, comes out in summer of 2015 and it’s–we’re actually not sure whether the title is Superman vs. Batman or Batman vs. Superman but yes, it’s–that rematch, that combination, the two guys onscreen and that’s happening.”

 Also, reports are coming in that WB bought the domains for SupermanVsBatman.com, BatmanVsSuperman, and BatmanVsSupermanMovie.com. I can only imagine the team of guys staring a board with two names and taking votes on which one. I would just close my eyes and aim and hopefully hit the board (area). Quite an accomplishment in my book.

More news to follow! What do you think it should be titled?

Comic-Con: Superman/Batman Officially Announced!!

Holy S@#$ Batman!! Warner Bros. Just announced something that will blow away any doubts it would ever happen. After so many years of rumors and nothing happening, Warner Bros. announced at the end of the pretty spectacular panel that a Man of Steel sequel will be made. Just not any old sequel. It's a Superman/Batman Worlds Finest movie!!

Ok this just blew me away. I knew they wanted to do something with Batman before Justice League but not the epic Superman/Batman movie.

At the end of the panel, they pulled a "oh one more thing" and Zack Snyder pops up on stage and thanks for the support of Man of Steel. He than announces Man of Steel sequel with

“It’s official that we are gonna make another Superman movie… The truth is you don’t want me to tell you what the movie’s about, but I can say that maybe there’s a single element that will be in the film that I could help you out with…”

Then, Man of Steel star Harry Lennix comes out to read a passage from Frank Millers The Dark Knight Returns.

He reads "“I want you to remember, Clark, in all the years to come, in all your most private moments. I want you to remember my hand at your throat.  I want you to remember the one man who beat you.”

Than the lights go out and a logo pops up on screen showing the Batman symbol behind the "S" Shield!! Superman/Batman is officially on people!!

Here is the logo that popped up on screen

UPDATE: Official Press Release Now Online After Jump! 

DC Unveils "Justice League 3000" + Concept Art

DC Comics recently canceled the beloved series The Legion of Super-Heroes, and that left a void for future set heroes. So they are going to basically take us back to the 31st Century in a new ongoing series titled "Justice League 3000". Yes, DC is milking it's Justice League title with a more than few series out there titled it. Although this series is a little different because being set in 31st Century, the current team isn't alive.

The team will consist of a Batman, Wonder Woman, Superman, Green Lantern, and of course The Flash. These characters themselves have not been announced who will be portraying them, but expect maybe a Legion member here or there. You never know.

The best part, we will be seeing some familiar faces (names) returning to Justice League. Writer duo, Keith Giffen and J.M. DeMatteis, and artist Kevin Maguire are teaming up again for this. You might remember them for their funny series Justice League International. This will be a very interesting take on the 31st century.

Howard Porter designed the new fresh costumes of the main 5 members. They look pretty spiffy and different. Did The Flash and Chamber have a child? OMG they gave Wonder Woman Pants? Crazy!

Check out the CBR exclusive designs of Batman, The Flash, Superman, Green Lantern, and Wonder Woman.

DC Announces September Villain Month Titles + Cool 3D Covers

DC Comics announced back in April, they were going to plan a "Villain Month" for September. This will be a way to celebrate the anniversary of the New 52. They finally unveiled how this will happen and announced the first couple of issues that will have some baddies take over the book. I really like the idea behind this and could be really awesome.

In an interview (via Buzzfeed ), Co-Publisher Dan Didio said, "This September we wanted to try something a little different and really explore our villain base, and show the challenges our heroes face with every story and every issue, because of the strength of the characters taking over their books in that month."

They continued to say that we won't see anybody brand new but will be introduced into the New 52 for the first time. I wonder who those could be hmmm. Also, they said all the big villains including The Joker, Lex Luthor, and Darkseid, will be making appearances. This will be epic, but I'm really excited for the big crossover event titled Forever Evil. It will have repercussions in the other titles as well.

Last big thing they hinted at is we might have a title or 2 continute as am ongoing series. Any ideas on who it will be?

Here are all of the awesome 3D titles! Make sure to check out the rest after the break!

Full Trailer for Batman: Arkham Origins Online Now!!!

Warner Bros. Games Montreal has released the full trailer for their prequel game Batman: Arkham Origins today! The footage shown is obviously not in-game footage but a beautiful cinematic trailer. It looks stunning and I would pay theater money to go see a Batman movie that looks like this thing. The game is considered a prequel because it takes place before the first two Arkham games and is when Batman first came around.

Also, They announced that voice of Batman to all, Kevin Conroy, will be returning to voice Bruce Wayne/Batman. Also, Superherohype announced that Deathstroke will be a playable character *say whaaaa*. That will be awesome! 

Developed by  Warner Bros. Games Montreal, Batman: Arkham Origins features an expanded Gotham City and introduces an original prequel storyline occurring several years before the events of Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City. Taking place before the rise of Gotham City's most dangerous villains and assassins, the game showcases a young, raw, unrefined Batman as he faces a defining moment in his early career as a crime fighter that sets his path to becoming the Dark Knight. As the story unfolds, witness identities being formed and key relationships being forged.

Batman: Arkham Origins will be available on Playstation 3, Xbox 360, PC, and Wii U on October 25th 

Here is the trailer we all will enjoy

Full Cast of Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox Announced + New Image!

DC Animated Films have always been very fan orientated when it comes to getting the best animation style closets to the source material. Also, they have been stellar with voice acting with bringing back fan favorites and great new talent. Check out this full cast and you will see some perfect casting with some new people showing up in roles.

TV Guide announced the full cast of Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox earlier. The full cast includes fan favorites Kevin Conroy as Batman, Dana Delany as Lois Lane, and Nathan Fillion as Green Lantern, Ron Perlman as Slade Wilson/Deathstroke. That gave me a nerdgasm. Also, joining the cast are Justin Chambers and Kevin McKidd as The Flash and Batman (Thomas Wayne version). Cyborg will be voiced by Michael B. Jordan (not the b-ball player mind you that) than the cool Cary Elwes as Aquaman, Vanessa Marshall as Wonder Woman, and Sam Daly as Superman. Wow thats a huge all-star cast! I can't wait for his!

Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox hits video on July 30th

Comics: Does Batman Get Carrie Kelley as New Robin?!

This month was marketed early as being a WTF moment heavy and than those labels disappeared. I think its safe to say that this book was meant to have one of those labels. I'm sorry if I'm going to spoil what happened to Damian Wayne in Batman Incorporated #8, you are just slow at reading, but he died and Batman needs the other half of the dynamic duo. Speculation has run afar trying to piece who will take up the bird mantle, with guesses ranging from Harper Row (my guess) to a random return of Stephanie Brown (we all wish). Well maybe we found one! and I didn't see it coming at all. 

NY Post did an article on the new Batman and Red Robin #19 and they reveal that the ginger girl in tights on the cover is exactly that! Carrie Kelley! Is she the new robin or is it a dream? Writer Peter Tomasi gives us answers sort of. 

“This is not an alternate-earth Robin, this is simply a girl named Carrie Kelley, who we learn knew Damian, which in turn weaves her into the fabric of the DC Universe for the first time in 25 years. Said writer Peter Tomasi. 

“What you'll find out once you crack the book, is that she's not exactly the ‘new Robin,’ but I don't want to spoil the story and her introduction into Bruce Wayne/Batman's life. In regards to how long she'll be around, let's just say that it's a helluva lot longer than ‘one issue.’ I've got plans for Carrie that play well into the future.”

I know everyone is thinking this is just a dream or a big stunt by DC to get that WTF Moment, but Peter says nope. 

“It's all real,” he said. “It's all in continuity. It's all part of the Batman universe in the here and now. Carrie Kelley has found her way into The New 52 and she's here to stay - in what capacity is anybody's guess - except mine of course.”

What are your thoughts on the introduction of Carrie Kelley into New 52 continuity? She hasn't been in any other universe besides Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns and it's sequel. 

Pick & Pull: March 27, 2013 - Guardians of Galaxy,B.P.R.D., Batman Inc. + More

It's that time of the week again and this week we have some pretty cool things happening fellow comic enthusiasts. We have some more repercussions of Robins untimely demise, a brand new series starting up with a wild favorite team, and a cool extension of an always favorite. 

Highlights

Guardians of the Galaxy #1 - This series has so much potential after that amazing prelude we had a little bit back. I can see this becoming a for sure pull from now on. Check out if you want to see how this team comes together. 

B.P.R.D: Vampire #1 (of 5) - I loved the story that this is a continuation of and with this one featuring the likes of Gabriel Ba and Fabio Moon, expect some awesomeness. 

Batman Incorporated #9 - The last issue changed everything for Batman/Bruce Wayne and we will see where this will take him. A must see!

Teen Titans #19 - Red Robin's problems are still bad and getting worse. What will happen to him or effect the others? Also, features Suicide Squad, which is a plus in my book. 

Top 10 Best Comic Book Cartoon TV Shows of All-Time

We all love our cartoons when we are young and even older and even older. The ones that tend to stick with us even after we get "too old" for Saturday morning cartoons are superhero themed ones. Particularly ones based off of comic books. So I have complied a list of what I consider the beset tv shows based off comic books. The range is big and a few are highly predictable, but they are all truly great for separate reasons.

The Batman (2004-2008)

The Batman is a series that I despised when I first saw it because 1. It wasn’t Batman The Animated Series 2. It wasn’t in the DC Animated Universe. After watching the first episode, I was instantly hooked! Who Knew? This show changed the way animated cartoons were done in the DC/WB area of animation and it brought to screen great villains and great redone legendary villains like The Penguin and The Joker and Heroes. They were just fun and the younger Bruce Wayne was great with adding Robin and Batgirl than doing Justice League in final season. Bringing back some DC Animated Universe (DCAU) Favs to voice their characters again. Gave me a soft spot for this series. 

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles aka TMNT (2003-2009)

Don’t get me wrong, I love the original 80s version for what it is..but...the series in TMNT fan eyes is lackluster and too childish. Than came the 2003 series and it was way different and more adult. Still not as adult as comic, but it gave us funny one-liners and great action with a cool shredder. The series had cool seasons and even went into the future. It just covered so much of the turtles world.The best part was the series finale/tv film that combined all the different series into one great tv movie. TMNT does have a new series that is growing on me nicely, it gets the humor spot on. 

Spider-Man: The Animated Series (1994-1998)

Here is the longest running series based on Spider-Man and 2nd longest Marvel series period. Fox Kids had the best superhero programming in the 90s with this, X-Men, Batman, and others. I was glued to that channel. Spider-Man has had more tv series since way back in the 70s, but this 90s modern take on him was the absolute best. It gave us Peter Parker during his college years working at the Daily Bugle. The animation was superb and the dialogue was actually really great with the inner-monologue of Spider-Man himself, just like the comic books. We got to see the classic spidey villains like Kingpin, Green Goblin, Lizard, Doc Ock, and Venom. Although, my favorite part was we got to see The Punisher make his appreance a few times along with Blade, Doc Strange and even Captain America. There was even a great crossover with X-Men. What else could you ask for in an amazing Spider-Man series. (see what I did there). 

Teen Titans (2003-2006)

The animation alone is drastically different then almost every other DC cartoon, and that is a great thing! The anime animation style was able to bring the emotion and humor out of the characters that made the show memorable. We finally got to see Robin and the team take main stage and Cyborg is just hilarious. Don’t think the show was all fun and games, it did get pretty serious in a lot episodes, with Ron Perlman as Slade. The characters were well thought out and presented perfect for the age group they were made for, but they did impress the older group with the humor. You have to love this show. 

Batman Beyond (1999-2001)

Batman in the future. Period. Also, takes place after Batman:TAS, which makes it even more awesome! Batman Beyond took the Timmverse into a big new direction with going into the future so far we actually get to see an old (very old) Bruce Wayne, still being voiced by Kevin Conroy. Bruce hangs up the cowl in the first episode and we meet the new Batman, Terry McGinnis. This new batman still has all the humor and will to do the job, but we get a brand new suit that is awesome (and capeless) and new gadgets. Bruce became an Alfred role, while Barbara Gordon is chief, and Robin is a tech guy. Pretty cool to see where they all ended up going.We also get some awesome new villains in Gotham and return of some old ones. This series was a Timmverse high that ended too soon in my opinion, it was even green-lit for a 4th season, but Justice League deterred that. I hope one day we see more of this world and it’s heroes/villains in animation or film. 

Do you have an idea what they top 5 shows will be? Well come on and see if you know what it is. 

Pick & Pull: March 13, 2013 - Batman, Batman and Robin, Wolverine + More

It's finally here folks, Sorry for the late post but here are this weeks Pick & Pulls. They are actually very Batman related because of the recent events that have shaken the family. We get a comic book that is all silent for a special bird boy that passed away. *sniff* and a brand new series of a mutant favorite.

Highlights 

Batman and Robin #18 - This issue is very interesting because we are going to give Robin a moment of silence, well a whole issue. Ya thats right a whole comic with no dialogue I believe. Can't miss this!

Batman #18 - This series has become my favorite comic in recent history with Scott Snyder taking the Bat into a fantastic world and depth I haven't seen in years. This issue will also deal with Batmans loss of his son.

Wolverine #1 - Here isn't something Batman related, but equally awesome in every way. A new series about Wolverine that is rumored to be pretty awesome. So this is much check out!

Sledgehammer 44 #1 - This is a Hellboy character kicking some butt in world war II era and basically is a twisted version of Iron Man. Pretty awesome I know.

Hoax Hunters #8 - This series is kind of just filling my void of supernatural investigators until The X-Files makes it's return this summer. I am so excited. Oh ya this series is still pretty awesome and check out if you like stuff like that.

Rumor: Christopher Nolan Overseeing Justice League, Zack Snyder Maybe Directing, and Christian Bale Back as Batman

This has to be one of the biggest rumors that Latino Review has released in a very long time (although they can be very credible). It blows the Marvel 'World War Hulk' Avengers storyline out of the water. Before I go any farther in this rumor…just know it is exactly that and I have trouble believing all of it. Just so many factors I see that go against it.

The rumor is a behemoth, Latino Review reported last night that Chris Nolan has already taken over the DC Universe at Warner Bros and every superhero film in production must go through him first. That is a huge thing to drop but lets move on first. Also, they said that Zack Snyder is going to co-produce, if not maybe direct it with Christian Bale returning as Bruce Wayne/Batman. This whole article just got crazy and your (if your a geek/nerd) mind is going nuts right now.

So lets get in the fine points of this and strip down them (the rumors, people).

Chris Nolan taking on godfather role over DC Universe 

Chris Nolan taking on a huge role in overseeing DC Universe pictures for Warner Bros. is a huge nerdgasm for all fans, but honestly what are the chances of him doing that. Nolan is known for giving us the biggest Batman series with arguably one of the best pictures of the century. He is a huge fan himself, but he doesn't want to always be doing superhero stuff and he's said that before. This man is a highly productive sought after director. How can the man who only works on one film at a time manage a vast catalogue of superheroes leading up to Justice League film. I think chances are slim for him to be a big contributor in the grand scheme, but maybe a guy to help bring the players together and make something happen and put in his 2 cents. I just don't see him in a Kevin Fiege role (only purpose is to manage Marvel films), he is a filmmaker. I give this rumor a plausibility, but not to the full extent of him being greatly involved.

Zack Snyder Producing and Possibility Directing 

Zack Snyder is a huge fan of all things comics and with a two great comic book films under him (300, Watchmen), and with hearing early reviews of Man of Steel being amazing, I can see this man up for the challenge of producing and even directing a Justice League film. He knows a lot about how the mechanics of these types of films work and has a great visual appearance in all of his films. The balance of Justice League resting on the shoulders of Man of Steel, If proven a success, Warner Bros. would be in great thought to get him on board. I think this rumor is very plausible and I can see him wanting to take on the film.

Christian Bale returning as Bruce Wayne aka Batman 

Here is the only really big problem I have with this rumor. Christian Bale is a great Batman, don't get me wrong, but he has said the only way he would come back was if Nolan came up to him with a way to make a fourth film work. Would Justice League be considered the fourth film? Warner Bros. reportedly wants to tie the world into The Dark Knight universe, while cool, would really make the 3 films have no meaning with seeing how Bruce Wayne became something bigger and changed things in Gotham and put up the cowl. Although, I do admit, since Man of Steel is said to be more down to each and in tone of the series, I can see it happening. I think I could adjust to it sooner or later. Still, it doesn't change the fact that Bale would likely only join if Nolan was somewhere on board. So it is true Nolan is overseeing it, Bale couldn't be to far behind the bandwagon. 

Just remember folks, these are all just rumors for now. No matter how crazy they are, you just never know. Latino Review has a pretty good track record with DC, but we all get stuff wrong sometime...

Pick & Pull: February 27th, 2013 - Batman Incorporated,Guardians of Galaxy + More

Its another issue of Pick & Pull folks! This time, we are going to give you, some big @#$% thats going down in the Batman family, a closer look at a big team that will be emerging soon, and what on earth did the Joker do to Red Robin? Big week guys.

Highlights: 

Batman Incorporated #8 - This is the issue writer Grant Morrison has been building up too. The Batman family will be shaken big time by this loss. That is all I will say about this issue. A Must read. 

Guardians of the Galaxy #0.1 - This is the start of, what will hopefully be, an amazing series. This is a special prelude comic to get you newbies (me included) caught up on just who this Star-Lord guy is, and how he became him. 

Teen Titans #17- The Death of a Family storyline is over, but the aftermath is still taking affect. The team is starting to notice something is off about Red Robin. Read to find out. 

Young Avengers #2 - The first issue was pretty awesome and gave us one crazy cliffhanger that just wanted us all to see what happened next. Here is that issue. We get guest stars Uncanny Avengers and a mystery guest from a characters past. Pretty exciting stuff here. 

Till next week! 

Comics: Batman Incorporated #8 Spoilers

We finally are given the word on what will happen to young Damian Wayne in Batman Incorporated #8. So to catch everyone up on what is happening, a few weeks ago, a comic book retailer tweeted the image of the new issue that featured Robin (Damian Wayne) in the exact same pose as his father Batman (Bruce Wayne) in Batman #676. Here is the new cover below: 

We all started to theorize what this meant for the still relevtivaly new character Damian. Would He die? Was this just a cash-in cover? Is it a metaphor? Who knows..oh wait we do now. Thanks to the New York Post doing a huge article on it. 

Spoilers!!! 

Damian Wayne will die! *sad face*. Yep, Damien's creator Grant Morrison said that he will die for like real. “It’s all about the family and the family going to hell,” said Morrison, who threw in elements of his own parents’ divorce. “The two adults in the story are both culpable. The kid’s the good guy.”

Do we know how long he will stay dead? or is it for good good? I'm full of theories. For instance, since he is half al Ghul, I can see him going back to the Lazareth pit and coming back. 

We will find out more when the issue hits stands. I was really started to like the kid too..
