And frankly, it looks like a PIECE OF SHIT From The Daily Blam! You can half-way understand when a Powerless Comic Book Company has no say in how their characters will be interpreted on film. But Warner Bros owns DC Comics for chrissakes… So who didn’t care enough or have the balls to simply say, [...]
EPIC FAIL! DC’s 75th Anniversary Logo
Posted: October 15, 2010 in Epic FailTags: Christopher Reeve, DC Comics, Logo, Paul Levitz, Superman Bust
We all know that DC Comics has been going through the wringer as of late. Between losing/firing Paul Levitz, hiring Diane Nelson, to announcing their intention to mysteriously somehow pass Marvel in sales, to adding new “semi-suits” behind the scenes (Johns and Lee), raising and lowering comic book prices and page counts, moving or not [...]

Yes, you read that right. DC Comic Books will GO DOWN IN PRICE starting January 2011. Those terrifyingly bad sales numbers in August must have been a smidge MORE TERRIFYING to the publishers than they were originally willing to let on. Can’t wait to see Marvel Publisher Dan Buckley’s response to this. Here’s the Official [...]

YOU KNOW WHAT THIS LOOK LIKE? SHIT. (Please be patient while the trailer loads.) Although, I do admit to digging Anthony LaPaglia’s turn as Lex Luthor! Seriously, be content with what you’ve already got. Buy Absolute All Star Superman when it is released in a few weeks!
