Comic-Con 2008 - “The Golden Age of Superhero Movies”
TinyURL'd
If Jesus, Odin, Zeus and the Dhali Llama all took a poo in a cup, had Hitler swirl it all around in his mouth, throw it up, let it harden and then Bruce Willis took an Uzi to it… it would still not suffice to the amount of “Holy crap” that was uttered in this first day of the SDCC. Nor would, in the case of another carefully crafted pun, be as “Holy [a] crap” as that seen today in San Diego. Some say E3 died, at least the E3 I grew up with. No, it did not, it split itself into two beings; the keynote’s were trimmed into the new ‘E3′. Wherein the energy and vigeur once wetting the floors of the Los Angeles Convention Centre has been moved to the San Diego Convention Centre. That is where nerds Hulk it out, hXc.
Wolverine: Origins (#25-26)
TinyURL'd
I got into this series after the Origin TPB. The last few issues, with Deadpool and Wolverine battling emptily have been boring me lately, But I really do like these too comics this month.
#25 is the end to the Deadpool vs. Wolverine battle that has been going on for a few issues. It is is where Draken finally finds Logan but has a favor settled between Buckeye and Logan… in the back of the head. Logan’s WWII days were first looked at in this series in issue 17, and during that story arc, Logan and Buckeye build a semi-relationship. Anything referenced in this series, until now, is answered in those last few pages.
#26 was amazing. Stephen Segovia replaces the artist Steve Dillon is a horrible Wolverine artist, I haven’t read anything else of his so I cant really critique any further.
Segovia did the Witchblade series (and some other stuff) and this issue starts off with Logan taking Draken to a super-secret-hideout where he worked for a company on some experiments (he was the watch dog). It ends with those experiments finding him.
I am now excited for these books again, and not just buying for the sake of collection
Batman: thrice thriced?
TinyURL'd
It it a universally accepted fact that this series of Batman movies are far more way betterer than the last one. This question is to those in the know of Batman’s story.
I did read Batman: Year One, so I do know that Begins was based off of that. I… know that the Dark Knight was based off of a book as well. With the passing of Heath, we know that Joker wont be in the last movie, and probably will be replaced by Two-Face. But after that, they have said they are just looking at 3 movies.
So if they do stop at 3 movies, what would happen? Batman has only become a more powerful franchise than the one they restarted.
The idea I had was a kind of Batman Beyond story. Joker is still alive, obviously, but Batman is old enough that they can cast a new actor as him (like they do with a characters flashback of a younger self - in reverse) and there he can fight the newly cast Joker and whoever the villains there were.
If we are going with trilogies again, when they finished that one (I know, this is far off) what would they be able to do? Again, I had an idea but I am near certain this would mess up the time line. What about a Nightwing pseudo-spin off? It would be dark and gritty, like Begins and TDK, but we do not have a Robin to turn into. I have heard rumor of a Robin in the third of this series, but I have never seen Robin done well… well, done non-homosexually.
This is, of course, assuming they dont carry on the story of the current trilogy…
