An Iron Man movie detail has come to light and been reported over at Ain't It Cool....the little bit of news? Nick Fury is introduced and being played by....wait for it...Samuel L Jackson.
If I wasn't gonna see Iron Man before I CERTAINLY am now.
Yes folks this is Nick aka The Dude, coming to you LIVE from Charlotte, NC at HEROES CON. Thus far I have uncovered a lot of DC news...I'd give you some Marvel news too but....they don't have any panels up here. Ok, enough of my yammering, on with what I have learned.
-The Flash will be cancelled after #13.....wait for it...
-Mark Waid WILL be writting The Flash after #13 with a restart of the series!!!
-Challengers of the Beyond (Kyle Rayner/Donna Troy/Jason Todd) news slipped by Didio, Jann Jones throws many things at DCU EIC.
-Jann Jones very cute and funny...wait that's probably not news...ok next...
-Barbara Gordon will STAY in the wheelchair. Didio said the character is stronger as such, to which I say GOOD.
-There are rules to the multiverse. Didio wouldn't elaborate.
- Plastic Man book, apparently Ethan Van Sciver has had one in the works for awhile, no firm release date though.
-Ralph & Sue Dibny mini is coming but, not for awhile.
-Wildstorm is one of the 52 earths
-Batgirl aka Cassandra Cain….nobody has any clue where she is, seriously, they got no new info. I asked and the panel was dumbfounded. Cassie? Didio aks. Anyone? Ok...um she is in the Himalayas
-Wonder Girl miniseries coming out of Amazon Attack series.
-Starman, more explanation in JSA #10
-New Earth 2 - News coming December
-Krypto shows up in Captain Carrot later on.
-Bad Superboy appears in Sinestro Corp.
-Extra Lanterns other then the three, will be explained in Sinestro Corp.
-Ian Churchill…something is in the works.
-Question/Batwoman miniseries.
- Sucide Squad Showcase confirmed….though Didio mistakenly said Essentials (THAT was hilarious!)
-Busted Statue of Liberty poster….there will be another poster….Ethan Van Sciver does it…more clues.
That's pretty much it. I better get off here. The webcomics panel is starting up. Full days' recap with PICTURES, coming later on. after conventions' end.
Comic books are all about stasis - Marvel and DC want you to still be reading Spider-Man and Superman comics in 50 years. So how does one respond to a year like the one we've just witnessed, where change actually happens?
