Man of Steel Coming Together!

http://dcu.blog.dccomics.com/2011/04/10/michael-shannon-to-star-as-general-zod-in-%e2%80%9cman-of-steel%e2%80%9d-from-warner-bros-pictures-and-legendary-pictures/

Wow! This Superman film is really coming together with acting talent. I am thrilled with each announcement because it seems like forever since Superman has been on the big screen. I am glad they are giving this character a fresh start. I think the reason why the Donner films are so beloved is because they stood on their own and defined an era for Superman. For this new film to gain that kind of love, it needs to do the same thing. I am excited at the possibilities.

DC Eisner Nominations

http://dcu.blog.dccomics.com/2011/04/07/dc-comics-receives-14-eisner-nominations-the-most-of-any-publisher/

I always get excited to see the Eisner nominations each year. It’s not just for DC but across all comics. I truly believe the comic medium has some of the best talent going right now. The diverse creativity in comic product nowadays is a testament to this. Congrats to all of the great creators from DC nominated and to anyone across comics who was nominated. It’s terrific that awards are handed out to honor the hard work and skills of this wonderful industry.

This week’s show update: Sean’s Report Card Week

Show news

Hey all,

    This is my report card week so I am going to get a new show out to you but I have to complete portions of my report cards each night. My current plan is to try and get a show out tonight but it is looking more like Tuesday or Wednesday. We’ll still have 4 shows in April regardless. Longtime listeners know that 4 times a year, I have to prepare report cards and it delays the show a couple of days. I appreciate your patience and understanding.

Sean

New show up Monday Night!!!

Show news

New show will be up Monday. Jim and I are recording new content Sunday. It’ll have lots of new comic chat, the rest of C2E2 interviews, and voicemails. We will definitely be chatting Wonder Woman, Detective Comics, Various Super Races, Thunder Agents and much much more. We’ll be doing some quick shot commentary to some books as well.

I was planning on two shows this week but needed some extra time to catch up on show prep and editing. There’s a lot of great material from the past couple of weeks to discuss.

Amy Adams is Lois Lane/ Booster Gold and Blue Beetle First Screen Shot / Geoff Johns on Aquaman/ Wonder Woman in action.

http://dcu.blog.dccomics.com/2011/03/28/superman-man-of-steel-finds-its-lois-lane-adam-hughes-covers-action-comics-900-and-more-superman-news/

I am sure at this point most of you have seen this but I am super excited for Amy Adams as Lois Lane. If you haven’t seen the film “the Fighter”, I urge you to check it out to see what a terrific actress she is. She has a strength in that role that is incredibly convincing but also a likability that fits the role of Lois Lane. This is another casting announcement that has me convinced the Superman film is in great hands. If the script matches the casting, we could be in for something special.

http://www.tvguide.com/News/Smallville-Booster-First-Look-1031161.aspx

The link above has a screen shot of Blue Beetle and Booster Gold. I think these look like these are some of the best “Smallvillized” DC characters yet. I am not suprised by how good Blue Beetle looks. We saw that test footage months ago and this is a DC character that was made for the screen. Booster Gold’s costume is really awesome. I wasn’t sure what route they would go but he looks like a character from the future. It’s a very clean look. Geoff Johns has been batting high on his Smallville scripts so I am really looking forward to this.

http://dcu.blog.dccomics.com/2011/03/29/where-we-go-in-the-book-will-surprise-some-people%e2%80%94geoff-johns-on-aquaman/

Yes! Yes! Yes! I adore Aquaman! I think his return to DC has been really well done and I am glad that Geoff Johns will be kicking this off. There is a great deal of interesting things that can be done with Aquaman. I would love to see where he plans to take the character and his supporting cast. Aquaman works the best when you really have a chance to show how his unique nature brings something different to the DCU. I have high hopes this will be up there with some of the classic Aquaman uns.

Wonder Woman’s costume has been adjusted for the TV pilot. I have to say I like the darker tones a little better. I definitely want to see this in motion but it’s definitely a step in the right direction. It has a feel of the “classic” look while bringing some cool elements of the new version currently in comics. I think the story presented will ultimately be the selling point to me on whether or not this works. I am glad they made a few changes to the costume though.

Episode 250: Year 6 Begins War of the Green Lanterns, lots of very cool material from C2E2
