Dark Horse's Scott Allie and DC's Dan DiDio in the ComicsPRO bar last night… is it me or do they loo ka little like upside down images of each other? And this is what they were drinking in the bar… And these are the hotel key cards exchanged in the bar…..but remember, what happens in ComicsPRO, stays in[...]

I imagine that such a movie might appeal to fans of The Punisher and The Expendables. I then spoke with Dan DiDio and I posed to him the same question as I did to Jim about Convergence He also conveyed to me the same kind of family feeling that Jim did about the event. Not only about the meetings between the characters[...]

Let us take three articles on CBR. Why not, they can probably do with the traffic. Regarding All-New Captain America, Rick Remender says, We get a really

Dan DiDio gave two Convergence interviews to CBR and Newsarama, lined up to run while Marvel was announcing the details of Secret Wars Both events involving their respective multiversities being mashed up, with many blasts from the past being revived for one night only Or a couple of months, anyway. We first mentioned what would become[...]

Dan DiDio has been posting on Facebook his memories of DC Comics as they prepare for their move to Burbank It sounds a little too much like a memorial speech, or even a retirement eulogy, though I'm hoping neither are on the cards There was the time he failed to successfully pitch Grant Morrison's Crisis[...]

Expect more of this sort of thing. Edited by Dan DiDio and Marie Javins, we have reported a number of creators as being Tim Truman, Jimmy Palmiotti, Justin Grey, Scott Lobdell, Fabian Nicieza, David Gallaher, Adam Beechen, Larry Hama, Marv Wolfman, Dan Abnett, Len Wein and Jeff Parker. But I am told to also expect a number of creators new to DC, with a background in webcomics[...]

Well, today as I was walking towards artist ally I ran into Dan DiDio and I always thought to myself if I have the chance to ask him one thing that would be it. DiFio was very polite taking a second to answer my question in regards to why there hasn't been much of a celebration[...]

Also in attendance were Dan Didio, Jim Lee and Batman himself. Update – Here is the report from Dimitrios Haritos: I was able to make it to the USPS and DC Entertainment official unveiling of the Limited-Edition Forever Batman Stamp Series Hosted by Ralph Garman and the panelists of Jim Cochrane Chief Information Officer and Executive Vice President[...]

In-between those last two, I'd met with Dan DiDio and Jim Lee for lunch, and that seemed to go well, so I figured it would just be a matter of time before I got to write something more than fill-ins And soon enough, I was asked to be part of the original Futures End team—when[...]

 Again, it's been left up to the reader to discover on their own which are which (by shelling out $3, or $4 if its the not-so-impressive lenticular covers), but Jim Lee and Dan Didio provided hints last week that Green Arrow, Superman, Grayson, and Booster Gold were perhaps the highlights of the month (with Didio shilling for[...]

Of course. Dan DiDio says, Spending a Sunday night working on the comics (the real never ending battle), and came across this Definitely one of the highlights of my time at DC, but it gets me thinking, has it really been almost ten years since then, and maybe its time to do it one better. That was, of[...]

It's entirely possible he's out on the back nine every weekend with Dan Didio and Bob Harras, followed by sherry and cigars in the clubhouse while they all slap each other's backs, but I don't think that's necessarily relevant This isn't the Vichy government, it's the entertainment biz I think it's perfectly valid to maintain[...]

DeMatteis, Dan DiDio and Phil Winslade . Avengers World #15 will be co-written by Frank Barbiere in addition to the previously solicited Nick Spencer. Justice League #33 will be drawn by Doug Mahnke and Keith Champagne instead of Ivan Reis and Joe Prado. Captain America #25 will see  Stuart Immonen join the already solicited Carlos Pacheco on art. Aquaman And The Others: Futures End #1 will no longer be drawn[...]

A while ago, we posted how Dennis Barger of Wonderworld Comics made a dollar bet with DC Comics co-publisher Dan DiDio, regarding making the look of variant covers available to retailers before they had to make their final orders. Well, Dennis is still having problems that way And still hasn't got his dollar Take this screenshot[...]

These tweets included folks like Wil Wheaton (Star Trek: The Next Generation) and DC Co-publisher Dan Didio who both appeared to be live-tweeting the movie. So we can probably expect a Sharknado 3 announcement any day now….   Sharks on plane, okay; Ian Ziering lands plane, sure; but Andy Dick as a New York cop, don't think #Sharknado[...]

Your choice. Just as today, when encounting a ne'er-do-well, you can choose to believe she pointed a sword in his vicinity and told him to scram… before going for a much-deserved meal. Or that she chopped off a certain piece of his anatomy. But, when flinging animal poop around the city, she was able to comment on Dan[...]

We look forward to Dan DiDio and Marie Javins telling us more at San Diego. Bleeding Cool has been running reports of next spring's DC Comics event which will see twenty two-part stories published over two months with a weekly series running through it, forty-eight issues in all. Last week we heard the news that we[...]

By Christopher Helton Dan Didio gets a lot of grief over the management side of his work at DC Comics, but I have enjoyed his comic writing work at the company, particularly the OMAC reboot that he did with artist and collaborator Keith Giffen This team is back and tackling another Jack Kirby creation: The Forever[...]

At the DC Comics Roadshow in Chicago a little while ago, Wonderworld retailer Dennis Barger Jr complained about not being able to see variant covers before ordering them. DC Comics co-publisher Dan DiDio told him that in the future, retailers would be able to see such covers before the final deadline to order them and, apparently,[...]

I was born in 1972. Just before that momentous occasion, DC co-publisher Dan DiDio was writing letters to The House of Secrets #99 (August 1972) aged twelve And he already appeared to be micro-managing…. Day After Doomsday was a fun series of two pages stories that played into DC's post apocalyptic future with Hercules and Atomic Knights[...]

Last night, I found my way barred. Trying to get into Jelly Jungle, I found myself flummoxed by the three quests, one per day, ahead of me. So I called

Reports of a recent staff meeting at DC Comics reach me. Referring to answers to questions about the move to Los Angeles, I am told that Co-Publisher Dan DiDio addressed the troops, telling them that everyone was still in shock and processing the information about the move of the publisher from New York to Burbank in April[...]

Nevertheless, we do appreciate this shot of Dan DiDio wearing the Joker mask, to add to our Jim Lee version… This morning, Bleeding Cool ran a report on a recent DC Retailer Summit at Chicago a couple of nights ago During which our anonymous retailer clerk took exception to some comments from Michigan retailer Dennis[...]

about the same turn out at both meetings, though I expected more from the Illinois/Indiana/Wisconsin/Michigan crowd that attends C2E2. Unfortunately, Dennis Barger Jr is from Michigan which meant he was there… more on that later.. As always, Dan DiDio was warm,welcoming and passionate about his company, comic books and the industry as a whole[...]

Dan DiDio, co-Publisher of DC Comics, has been laying out the schedules for the three announced weekly titles so far, on Facebook Unlike 52 and Countdown before them, they will not last a year Though it seems that Batman Eternal will be continuing… sometime. Batman Eternal started this April and runs to next March after which[...]

DC Comics co-publishers Dan DiDio and Jim Lee have followed up on Publisher Diane Nelson's announcement about a survey of DC comic book creators into… well, pretty much everything. They write, By now you've all likely seen and read Diane Nelson's email from earlier this week announcing DC Entertainment's first ever Talent Survey. Everyone has! This is an exciting[...]

And more to come in subsequent months… The first is the MegaCon Retailer Roadshow at Orange County Convention Center on Thursday 20th, with Dan DiDio, Bob Wayne, Brandy Phillips and Stuart Schreck. Then the week after the Emerald City Comicon Retailer Roadshow will be held on Thursday 27th at Washington State Convention Center, with Jim Lee, Dan[...]

A few days ago, Bleeding Cool reprinted a tweet that seemed to suggest Dan DiDio were bringing back a cult classic comic The smart folk told us to think Jack Kirby – Keith Gifen is one of the biggest Kirby admirers you can find and has a style that plays off Kirby wonderfully. We've now been[...]
