Jeph Leob Tells Us When We Can Expect To See The SHIELD TV Series
co-written, directed, and Executive Produced by none other than Joss Whedon! Working with Joss, Jed Whedon, Maurissa Tancharoen, Jeffrey Bell on the show is a blast!

Five Character Profiles For Joss Whedon's S.H.I.E.L.D TV Show
TV Line are claiming to have got their mits on casting details on Joss Whedon's upcoming S.H.I.E.L.D TV show As it stands, it looks like none of these characters have any background in comicbook history Now, it wouldn't be the most surprising thing if all of the characters were original creations, but lets be sceptical[...]

Tuesday Trending Topics: Avengers 2+
I was going to write a thing about how half a million people couldn't bring down BC during SDCC, but Joss Whedon did it in 5 minutes today — but got completely distracted by the fact that there are shockingly few Avengers #1's with arrival dates left in existence (yes folks, this is what geeks[...]

Peter David To Adapt Joss Whedon's X-Men As A Novel
Peter David's work has repeatedly been compared to that of Joss Whedon A lightness of touch, a fine hand with witty, stylised dialogue, a tendency to slip contemporary reference, a repeated desire to play against type, and the commonality of combining action, comedy and horror, often at the same time And I believe they have mutual admiration[...]

I feel like I'm channeling John Stewart right now The two versions aren't completely incompatible, but it does take[...]
Marvel Avengers Assemble: The Bleeding Cool Review
Joss Whedon has effectively weaponised film.
