So Superman/Batman #11 is out tomorrow, from DC Comics And this is the cover, honest. Which does, for the first time we believe, give Krypto a full spread naked butt shot. In such circumstances, we have no choice but to call in Chip Zdarsky…   Krypto, your days are numbered… So Superman/Batman #11 is out tomorrow, from DC Comics[...]

When the New 52 relaunch began back in 2011, one of the more prominent changes, if you can believe it, was the removal of Superman's iconic red trunks Source of so many jokes about superheroes wearing their underwear over their trousers, the new costume caused headlines and much fan bitterness. Now the upcoming Superman writer Geoff[...]

DeviantArt's journal depthRADIUS has recently published a short visual essay entitled "Secrets of Superman's Underwear", and it's actually quite a detailed analysis and argument that the necessities of comic book art publishing lay behind the choice for Superman to be depicted with his underwear on the outside. I've previously heard many debates about this (because I[...]

Today's Superman/Wonder Woman sees Diana Pricne visit the offices of ClarkCatropolis.com, the blogging site of Clark Kent and Cat Grant, which seems to have an upgrade after they ran the scoop of Wonder Woman and Superman's relationship. Hmm, you know what I realised, I actually ran the scoop of Wonder Woman and Superman's relationship back before[...]

And if it had been, today's Superman comic books might have made more sense. We know that Lex Luthor will be heading up the Justice League But how did he get there? Well, with Luthor getting involved in the Doomed crossover story, appearing in Doomed #1 advising Batman and Superman, even if they are less than[...]

I don't buy a lot, but I do tend to buy Batman and Superman figures, especially if they are from the same set So I thought that this graphic DC Collectibles has done up for the 75th anniversary was very cool and worth sharing.   They also did up the following video as a timeline to[...]

Over on moviepilot.com, artist Khoa Ho shared a series of art prints he did featuring characters from Marvel and DC Comics. The pieces are from two sets,

But Marvel do have a habit of doing such things. What if it is not an anniversary of anything Marvel? Could it be the 100th anniversary of two men, both born in 1914, who did something special? Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, the creators of Superman, were born in 1914, Shuster in July, Siegel in October Could it[...]

Before we didn't have a clue. Painkiller Jane: 22 Brides will now be a three issue mini-series, not the solicited four issue mini-series. And the Batman/Superman #9, the third part of the crossover with Worlds' Finest (the fourth partv of which shipped a couple of weeks ago) has been delayed another week from April 16th to April[...]

Summer's Coming… not, I'm not trying out for the Game of Thrones parody, summer really is coming and ladies, if you are looking for a swimsuit that shows your geek cred without spending any money, DC Comics has something for you. You can win one of BlackMilk's Superman Cape Suits. The suits have been selling like crazy[...]

If only Superman had been around, the movie Gravity basically wouldn't have even existed. Fun little viral video making its way around the interwebs today I think most people think it's a belated April Fool's joke, but it's clever enough to share on its own and beyond that silly "holiday."

Superman Unchained #7 by Scott Snyder and Jim Lee was meant to come out in February but has now been delayed until the 30th April. Superman Unchained #8 was meant to have come out last week but was delayed until the 28th May. And the final issue, Superman Unchained #9, was meant to have come out on April 30th[...]

To, it seems, turn him into Clark Kent… Lois And Clark, wasn't it? Not the only character of Superman dreams today From Earth 2…   "You can fly You belong in the sky You and I… could belong to each other If you need a friend… I'm the one to fly to[...]

Additionally, sections of the game had been completely revamped in the retail release with gameplay being nothing like the original (more impressive) footage. Both of these complaints pale in comparison to the fact that Colonial Marines was a broken, buggy, glitch filled game.  YouTube videos went up in droves with players capturing enemies and NPC's (Non playable characters) alike being stuck in[...]

But mistakes creep in everywhere. Take the Death And Return Of Superman Omnibus from last year Coimpared to the original comics… From the Legacy Pf Superman special, the Newsboys were talking about cloning the Guardian in different colors and genders. But when you see it in the Omnibus, page 326, the clone in the middle panel is miscolored as[...]

But I did want to point out the constantly crying Superman That should be a meme… You're never alone with a Strand, Blackout #1 Or maybe he's got a tapeworm Or a vestigial twin Either way, it's good to know you're not solo Talking of which… Don't let Star Wars Legends #13 worry you, we know she's going to[...]

Which means we can see that DC are finally resoliciting their Frank Quitely collection of short stories over the years… if it's successful maybe they'll finally release the Alan Grant/Frank Quitely Lobo comic they've had sitting in a drawer for a decade. So we have Batman/Superman #12, Earth 2 #24, The Flash #32, Superman/Wonder Woman #9,[...]

Before Superman was introduced to the public in 1938, success of a "superhero" was measured by the publisher's ability to sell enough ten-cent magazines to do well 75 years later, success of a superhero is measured by whether or not 2013's Man of Steel generated enough revenue by grossing only $668,000,000 worldwide 2012's The Dark[...]

What is it with Batman? When he's not storing ways to defeat all the other member of the Justice League… Or spying on his so-called best friend copping a feel… And now, e's found a way to hack the Justice League communicators so they are always on, from today's beautiful Batman/Superman Annual #1. Which is similar to the[...]

He writes, Here's a commission for a Dark Knight-Batman and Superman piece I really wanted to do Batman in his normal outfit but when he faces off with the Man of Steel in the finale, he's in his 'Bat Iron Man year one suit' Then I thought about a comment that Superman said about them being[...]

That's right, you never saw the enslaved helots in the battlefield in 300 did you? No, no you didn't… From Superman, that's right folks, they'll be squawking about this and posting it on Faceroom all day today Except… there is a Hive A real one A rather fun one The V Hive I wonder if[...]

Today, Lois Lane gets her own New 52 one shot comic book, Superman: Lois Lane. Well, he does turn up for a panel. But in the comic, Lois Lane goes on the track of Amanda, someone close to her sister, Lucy Lane, in Superman: Lois Lane But is she missing a story right underneath her nose? A pause[...]
