    DC Comics Reboot

    Some more info: Gail Simone is off Secret Six and doing the Deadman series. I've also heard that Secret Six will be relaunced as Secret Seven with a totally different concept. Dan DiDio will be writing OMAC. Barbara Gordon is Batgirl again. Jim Lee's Wildstorm books are going to be...

    DC Comics Reboot

    The dislike is really due to several factors. The first is that people don't have a lot of faith in the people in charge at DC. I mean, if they announced that the reboot was being headed by Grant Morrison, Alan Moore, and Neil Gaiman, there would probably be more enthusiasm. Since DiDio's...

    DC Comics Reboot

    Some more info: It seems that the picture is of the new "original" line-up of the Justice League. Martian Manhunter out/ Cyborg in. :confused: Also, Gail Simone is off Birds of Prey (and the new book probably won't have anything to do with the current one). Teen Titans - written by Fabian...

    DC Comics Reboot

    For a while now, there's been some speculation that DC was planning on rebooting their universe and starting all their comics again with #1's (this started back when DC listed its release schedule for its August books and someone noticed that all their comics seemed to be wrapping up their...

    This season's cancellations

    ABC is doing a pilot for a series about Edgar Allan Poe solving weird crimes. Not quite what your asking for, but it's something (and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it'll turn out to be good). There actually is a Law & Order: UK. It airs on BBC America. Personally, I don't like it...

    NBC Passes on Wonder Woman

    Actually, someone described it as a typical David E. Kelley show mixed with Xena and over-the-top violence. Sadly, your description makes it sound better...

    NBC Passes on Wonder Woman

    Since I posted this news, I've read some reviews by people who've seen the pilot or read the script. I think we dodged a bullet with this. It really sounds like a Catwoman situation where nothing resembles the comics. First, she has multiple identities: Wonder Woman, Princess Diana, Diana...

    Doctor Who Season 6 (SPOILERS :p)

    I need to ask, am I the only one who thought the Silence looked kind of like those weird, faceless winged creatures from Beastmaster? Or am I that big of a geek...B-)

    Sym-Bionic Titan Cancelled

    The three characters are a robot and two teenagers with power armor. They merge together into a giant robot called Titan. Symbiotic + bionic + Titan = Sym-Bionic Titan. The title gives you more information than, say, Regular Show, Generator Rex, or Bleach. ;) I can't find it now, but I did...

    No Ordinary Family

    Personally, I thought the series took a big drop in quality after the first few episodes. I think I gave up after the 5th one. A quick check on Wikipedia says it's at episode 14 here.

    Guilty pleasures

    Transylvania 6-5000. I love this film. I think Jeff Goldblum and Ed Begley, Jr had real chemistry as a comedy team. Plus, Geena Davis in a sexy vampire costume...;) Masters of the Universe. Yes, the live action He-Man movie. It may not be accurate, but it's fun! Friday the 13th 5: A New...

    January: What are you reading for your penultimate year?

    I'm reading The Tangled Skein by David Stuart Davie. It's a "Sherlock Holmes meets Dracula" novel and it's pretty fun. The best part is that the author tried to capture Doyle's style and didn't just churn out a modernized version (i.e., full of cursing, nudity, and gore). It feels like a...

    HUMAN TARGET #4:The Return of Baptiste /Season 2/2010

    I lost interest part way through the episode. This show just isn't doing it for me anymore. I dropped it from my DVR. BTW, does anyone know how well the show is doing compared to last season's ratings?

    No Ordinary Family

    Chiklis claims that he shaved his head for a play when he was younger and then applied greasepaint without putting powder on his head first. Supposedly, after doing this for a long period of time, it killed the hair follicles. However, iirc, a doctor once said that greasepaint probably...

    I saw this picture and I thought it looked interesting. It looks like it might be the Monkey King. Anyone know what show it's from?
