The clip takes place after an encounter with Amazo, the power-adopting android. Young Justice was able to take out Amazo, but let his creator, Professor Ivo, escape. Batman and the rest of the Justice League have some advice for their younger counterparts, but remind them that the team exists because everyone could use a hand.

'Walking Dead' Renewed For Third Season

Posted 10/25/11 2:24 pm EST by in Image Comics, News


The Walking Dead

"The Walking Dead," like the zombies strewn about the show's post-apocalyptic wasteland, is here to stay.

The AMC Network has renewed the staggeringly successful horror series, based on Robert Kirkman's much loved and long running "Walking Dead" comic books, for a third season. Another year of "Walking Dead" madness was all but a sure thing following the show's massive, ratings-shattering season premiere — the series broke the record for most watched drama in the history of television with its return this year — but still, an official confirmation is very, very nice to hear.

'Batman: Arkham City' Suit Brought To Life With Amazing Detail

Posted 10/25/11 11:23 am EST by in DC Comics, News, video games


Arkham City

I've spent a great deal of time with "Batman: Arkham City" lately. Every night for the last week, I have grapnel-boosted my way across the skyline of Goth – er, Arkham City, dispatching goofy thugs with a quick drop of my black boot. On more than one occasion, I have suddenly realized that the sun was peeking through the window, leading to yet another day without sleep. Yes, the game is just that good.

The game is so good, in fact, that some eager fans out there just may want to dress up like the Bat himself. A few artists recently got together and produced what has to be the most detailed real-life representation of the game's amazing suit.

by Uptin Saiidi, with reporting by Brittany Breen

Thousands of walkers claimed the Jersey Shore boardwalk over the weekend in Asbury Park during the 2011 Zombie Walk. The event, in its fourth year, was started by Jason Meehan, 30, who admits it started out of pure jealousy.

“A friend went to a Zombie Walk in Atlanta and I really wanted to find an event like that around where I lived in NJ," he said. "I realized there wasn't anything like it… [and] the rest is sort of history!”

'Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes' DVD Exclusive: Thor Attacks!

Posted 10/24/11 5:00 pm EST by in Marvel, Video


You might have to wait until May to see the Avengers assemble on the big screen, but you can check out the adventures of Thor, Captain America, Iron Man and the Hulk on DVD tomorrow (October 25) when volumes 3 and 4 of the animated series "The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes" hits stores. We have an exclusive clip from the new DVD release. Check it out below!

In the exclusive clip, you get to see the prince of Asgard squaring off against one of Captain America's nemeses Baron Zemo and his Masters of Evil. Fans of the comics should recognize a number of characters like Baron Zemo, who haven't made their way into the film adaptations quite yet, including Kang the Conqueror. Thor does his best even though he's out-matched against the Masters of Evil, but the fight is just a little too unfair.

Much Ado

"The Avengers" was not shot with an iPhone, despite reports to the contrary. But here's an outrageous sounding factoid that actually is true: busy "Avengers" director Joss Whedon cooked up his own secret indie movie while directing Earth's Mightiest Heroes, and it's a project of literally Shakespearean proportions.

Whedon, currently hard at work assembling the likes of Iron Man, Captain America and Thor for Marvel Studios' superhero team-up, has announced the completion of principal photography on "Much Ado About Nothing," a movie based on the classic William Shakespeare play of the same name.
