'Young Justice' Q&A: Producers Talk Team-Building, Going Real, And Comics Crossovers

Posted 1/14/11 5:01 pm EST by in DC Comics, interviews


Young JusticeLast week, we gave you an exclusive first look at "Young Justice" villain Mister Twister, who will make his debut in next week's episode of the new Cartoon Network animated series. Before that happens, however, the two-part series premiere continues tonight (7 PM Eastern on Cartoon Network) with "Independence Day, Part 2."

Given the great response to the six-minute "Young Justice" trailer we premiered here on Splash Page back in November, the adventures of DC's new teen superhero team have found quite a following — which is why I reached out to producers Greg Weisman ("Gargoyles") and Brandon Vietti ("Batman: Under The Red Hood") for more info about how the series came together and what to expect this season.

From team-building decisions to finding a place for the series in DC continuity, Weisman and Vietti offered a great look at the past, present, and future of their teenage team. Read More...

Kelley told The Hollywood Reporter that even though the project failed to land at a network this year, "Wonder Woman" could still find its way to television viewers as soon as next year.

"I think the likelihood is we'll see it next year," he said. "I'm being optimistic but I don't think I'm being unrealistic." Read More...

Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man Costume: What Do You Think Of It? [POLL]

Posted 1/14/11 1:46 pm EST by in Marvel, Polls


Andrew Garfield as Spider-ManThe first photo of Andrew Garfield as Spider-Man was released by Sony earlier today, ending almost a year of speculation about how the friendly neighborhood webslinger will look when the franchise is rebooted by "500 Days Of Summer" filmmaker Marc Webb.

Even though Peter Parker's looking a little beat up in the photo and we don't get to see the mask, there are a lot of changes to be seen in the new, rebooted Spider-Man costume. So now the question becomes: do we like it?

Now's your chance to let us know whether you think the new Spider-Man suit is a big win, a total fail, or a decision that can only be made once we see the mask — which is totally understandable. Personally, I'm a fan of the new look, but I'm sure there will be more than a few people with differing opinions. Read More...

The Black Panther), the six-episode series debuted on iTunes back in June and now arrives on DVD next week, courtesy of Shout Factory and Marvel Knights Animation.

The animated series is based on the celebrated "Black Panther" comic book arc written by former BET President of Entertainment Reginald Hudlin and veteran artist John Romita Jr. ("Kick-Ass"), and uses a motion-comic style of animation.

Posted 1/14/11 11:01 am EST by in Twitter Report


WolverineHoroscope watchers have been scratching their heads this week, thanks to some zodiac changes being implemented. Sign shifts and the addition of a new one called Ophiuchus could impact tattoos all over the place, though comics creators mostly think the whole institution is wacky to begin with and/or wonder what the implications will be for the Marvel Comics super-villain team.

Meanwhile, Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man costume has been grabbing some eyes. You'll find out who likes the web-shooters, who's withholding his opinion and who drew a badass Wolverine (even in 2007) down below.
