May 6th, 2013 by Caffeine Powered

He is legitimately angry.

Get it? Kal-Hell? This new TV spot for The Movie of the Summer (you heard it here first) features a rather perturbed lookin’ Superman ready to lay down some whuppings.

Court ruling finds ‘SUPERMAN’ back in Warner Bros. and DC Comics’ greasy paws.

January 10th, 2013 by Caffeine Powered

Fuck Warner Bros! As of right now, I am publicly rescinding the pitch I sent to them. You know, the pitch about the bi-polar kid so hopped up on caffeine he literally pierces time and space with one frothy piss. Once he clambers into the other dimension, he finds a pet unicorn who he falls in love with. After a prolonged courting process, they make love. The kid dies almost immediately. I rescind all of this, because Warner Bros. will just make like a zillion bucks off it and I’ll get nothing. Nothing!

Zack Snyder: ‘MAN OF STEEL’ keeping things on course for ‘JUSTICE LEAGUE.’ Wee?

November 28th, 2012 by Caffeine Powered

Lost in the noise regarding JGL donning Batman’s mantle – possibly – is this white noise eminating out of Zack Snyder’s throat. Homeboy is throwing down about Man of Steel, and how it will tie into DC’s Not Avengers. Normally I’d be breathing hot fart hate, but I quite enjoyed the teaser trailer for the film. Keeping that in mind, while ruminating on the hot groin love of 300, I will try and mitigate my snark.

Cosplay: Steampunk Poison Ivy is the pale alt-past hotness.

Glory me, yes.

DC “pulling back” on variant covers. Despite release FIFTY-TWO variants of ‘JLA’ #1. Lawl.

November 13th, 2012 by Caffeine Powered

Don’t ever start making sense, DC. I’d hate to take you pig-greasers seriously. Or rather, take the minds at the top making all the puke-covered decisions. I take a lot of the creative minds at the joint very seriously. The latest noise coming out of their Den is that they plan on pulling back on variant covers. This is said, of course, in light of the news that they’re dropping fifty-two variants for JLA #1.

John Hodgman on why COMICS CONTINUITY sucks. (He’s correct.)

October 30th, 2012 by Caffeine Powered

Fuck continuity. It serves, more often than not, only to incite fanboy rage and nit-picking. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that most of my favorite comic tales are Elseworlds or tales that take place in the future. They’re liberated from constrains that serve more to jerk off history than to give the world a richness. I’m feeling you, John Hodgman!

More of GREG RUCKA’S comments on how the BIG TWO treat creators. Props ++

September 22nd, 2012 by Caffeine Powered

It’s been a good year for creators speaking out on how the Big Two comic book publishers have essentially devolved into churn factories for movie properties. Not certain that anything good will come to pass from it (hint: Rendar and I haven’t bought a comic book in a month, if you’re wondering our feelings on the industry), but it’s invigorating to see people speaking up. Greg Rucka has once again stepped into the batter’s box. Here is more from his interview with Clint magazine that we covered earlier in the week.

MARK MILLAR and other good souls take down an online bully douche.

September 3rd, 2012 by Caffeine Powered

Despite being woefully offensive in his comic blatherings, Mark Millar seems to be quite the solid dude. He recently joined forces with the Power of the Internet to fell some malicious online douchebag.

Geoff Johns and David Finch team up for new ‘JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA’ series. Moar team books! Forever!

August 28th, 2012 by Caffeine Powered

DC is apparently becoming hip to something Marvel unfortunately figured out years ago. If you sell like thirteen Super Mega Team! books, you’ll make more money.

SUPERMAN and WONDER WOMAN are officially a couple in the NEW 52

August 22nd, 2012 by Caffeine Powered

The easy answer to that dumb fucking conversation in Mallrats has been answered with the obvious. Wonder Woman has the piping to handle Superman’s shotgun load, and now she is hooked up with the guy.
