ust as DC reintroduced readers to Archie's Red Circle characters and enfolded them into core continuity, so too will the publisher tackle updating Tower Comics' '60s adventurers the "T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents." Paying homage to the original series, the new team by Nick Spencer and artist CAFU (with Frank Quitely lending a cover to issue #1) sees a new team take on the agent identities of characters like Dynamo, NoMan, Menthor and others. This new version of The Higher United Nations Defense Enforcement Reserves will deal with threats from both the past and the future while also struggling with slightly self-destructive superpowers in the present across and main feature, plus backups from to-be-announced artists in each issue.Spencer Reloads "T.H.U.N.D.E.R. AGENTS"

While we haven't really seen too much from Comic-Con (and yeah, it's still super early) in regards to Sony Online Entertainment's highly anticipated action MMO, "DC Universe Online," at the very least fans and gamers alike can now hear what the characters will sound like...sort of...work with us here, folks.Alan Moore Says He Turned Down Rights to 'Watchmen,' Refused to Write Prequels or Sequels
Due in large part to the historic falling out between DC Comics and Alan Moore, the creator's ongoing criticism of the state of the comics industry, and his deliberate disassociation (even financially) from film adaptations of his works, fans have traditionally balked at rumors of auxiliary "Watchmen" stories. Not even those tied to the "Watchmen" movie think a prequel or sequel would necessarily be a good idea. Still, according to Moore, the publisher went to some lengths to get him to take the gig.New 'Batwoman' Art as Pretty as You Thought It Would Be
As the comics industry makes the trek to San Diego for the annual Comic-Con mega-event, DC has continued posting art and news on The Source blog, including a post today featuring art from the upcoming "Batwoman" series by J.H. Williams III. We love us some "Batwoman" at ComicsAlliance, and while we were very sad to hear that Greg Rucka was departing from the character he defined, this teaser art confirms what you probably already knew: that the new series is still going to be very, very pretty indeed.TOTAL RECHARGE: Doug Mahnke

THAT'S the Ryan Reynolds GL uniform?! @#)$(*@#&! Holy crap...they couldn't even get the mask right! No...just....no.
ReplyDeleteThe funny thing is, a guy at work participated in a survey about the GL movie maybe two years ago, and one of the choices on the survey was the costume: traditional, or a new one for the movie. Well, he picked the traditional one because that's what he grew up with in the 60's, but I guess that choice didn't win out. Gah, Hollywood, sometimes I hate you.
Sorry to hijack your blog. I'm feeling particularly cranky tonight.
Batwoman art made me happy, though. Could've done without the Madonna-esque pointy bosoms, but you take what you get.
And DCU Online. Sigh. This is one of those rare times when it sucks to have a Mac. 'Cause I'm sure you know how badly I want to play that and run around as J'onn J'onzz and be awesome. I don't even think I'd fight anyone...I think I'd just run around and eat Oreo's, if the game let you do that.
....actually, on second thought, I'd run around as Two-Face and make him eat Oreo's. That's more my style.
