#DCnews KRYPTON | Season 2 Official Trailer | SYFY

I haven't kept up with SyFy's weird KRYPTON show. But from the look of things they've pulled some impressive stuff including a really good live action Brainiac. And looks like season 2 will have Doomsday AND more importantly The Main Man himself, LOBO!!!!



I'm not sure about the voice, though......

#Recap - Batman v Superman

Today I finally saw Batman v Superman. That's right, I finally watched this one!


Today I also watched Joe Dirt 2 earlier one. And let me say it right away, both films were pretty bad, really random and complicated for no reason. But at least Joe Dirt 2 had the honesty to say it: maybe they overwrite the plot a bit too much.

#DCComics NEWS! The New Batman Film: Also starring Batman's pals Wonder Woman & Superman: Dawn of Batman

..I mean, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

Apparently there's been a new trailer, which I seemed to completely missed yesterday.

Featuring amazing things such as:
  • Batman!
  • More Batman!
  • The Man of something-something
  • Wonder something
  • A young hairy Lex Luthor acting like the Joker
  • DOOMSDAAAAAY!!!
  • Ben Affleck playing Bruce Wayne playing Ben Affleck
  • Explosions!
  • And more Batman!
Gee, Warner Bros. sure let Batman took over this Man of Steel 2 sequel...



I still believe they should have gone all out and either call this film TRINITY, or Justice League: Origins or something...

#Ad - Superman Action Figure Commercial

Here's a funny 1996 commercial for Superman toys!



Probably famous for being the only time the 90s Superboy got animated!

"Don't mess with the S-Shield!!"

ComicPanelsOfTheWeek: My new friend Doomsday

That's not a particularly funny of memorable panel.
But a f*cked up-looking Doomsday. Nothing special.

FanFilmFriday: The Death and Return of Superman

Here's a "fanfilm" for the day!

Remember when Man of Steel died and returned in the '90s?
Well Max Landis here certainly does. (though he's waaaay too young to have actually followed the whole thing originally now that I think about it..)
Who's Max Landis? He's the son of the legendary comedy and horror movie master John Landis.

Back then, the epic Death and Return of Superman story was such a success it launched a boom in comics that marked the generations to come, changed the whole comic book industry regarding mega-events and tie-ins, was adapted into a videogame..
Warner even tried to make a movie out of all this..but only that lame lackbuster Steel was made - with no connections to Supes whatsoever due to all the delays and cancellation of the other related movies. (a Superboy, Cyborg and Eradicator movies were also planned to accompany a Death and Return of Superman)

Anyway, Max did this whole summary and critique of the whole Death and Return saga, featuring various talents such as Mandy Moore as Lois Lane, Elijah Wood as Hank Henshaw, Simon Pegg as John Landis, etc...

Enjoy this ~17 minutes video!


Epic!
Funny enough, accurate and entertaining!

Max Landis adds:

The original rant was 45 minutes long, so of course we had to cut a bunch of stuff out for time, and because it was just too stupid. Like for instance the part where Pa Kent dies of a heart attack and literally GOES TO HEAVEN. AND SEES SUPERMAN.
If I saw this video, I might nerd rage out so hard. But luckily I made it, so I'm pretty happy. Really I'd hope people just are with me, and happy that Guy Gardner and Bloodwynd get to be in a movie.
Guy Gardner, haha!
Gotta love seeing all these characters portrayed, even if briefly!

Kids these days, always complaining about everything..
Even more so on the interwebz :P

Anyways, besides that, the video was actually sort of fun!
I actually like Death and Return of.. but managed to enjoy this lil' video nonetheless.

AtoZ - D is for... Doomsday

Eyz' ComicBook Alphabet Challenge! 
Today, D is for... Doomsday!!


You thought it was going to be Deadpool, right?

Well, nope sorry!
Doomsday is an important character from me. He was the reason that made me start reading Superman comics and finally give Kal-El a chance. And now? I have read tons more of Supes thanks to this ugly mug! (even if I didn't jump in during the 90s but much later thanks to the couple of collected Doomsday-arc comics)

Deleted Scenes - Superman: Death & Disco

In the Superman movie history, there's been a lot off would-be movies starring big blue that never made it past the pre-production stages.

Including a 5th classic Superman movie with Reeves, a Tim Burton Superman movie, another Tim Burton take with Supes on a wheelchair, a Kevin Smith-written one also directed by Burton, a Superman/Batman movie and a hundred more concepts that we may never know about! (including at one point having Nic Cage as Superman himself!!)

With a new movie announced, directed by Zack Snyder, in the work, some scrapped projects have been revealed since some key players, directors or producers won't be involved anymore.


Very nice subtle redesign by BeyondComics.TV, a more colorful and faithful approach

ComicNEWS! Reign of Doomsday

Doomsday's coming back! YaY!
What? Who is Doomsday??
Alright, alright.. I'll do a Doomsday ComicBookReview before he's brought back...

Anyway, basically, Doomsday's this unstoppable unkillable machine. He's te monster who "killed" Superman once.

Oh! That you know.
Superman "died" in the 90s (but really, wasn't that dead, more like almost-dead).
It was THE comic event of the 90s, everyone heard of that. The book was selling mad, newspaper, people on tv, everyone talked about that.
Etc..Etc..


Doomsday will be back in all his glory next year!
And the regular impossible to defeat Doomsday.
He will be making his way through the DCU starting January.

I guess that's a way to stop the current "Grounded" storyline (for those who haven't been following it).
Specially since ex-Marvel writer, J. Michael Straczynski, left the book.
It's funny to see now this Superman walking all over the places, never stopping his single-minded objective as a parallel to Doomsday's march. And now with the actual Doomsday showing up!...

Here's the first part, what comics to follow for you, issues-buying guys and gals:

STEEL #1
OUTSIDERS #37
JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA #55
SUPERBOY #6
… ????

I'll personally be waiting for the TPB, to join the other Doomsday collected stories~

His path makes sense.
He's gonna face off the Superman-related characters that way!Steel, Supergirl (JLA), Superboy/Kon-El, The Eradicator (Outsiders)...


And DC's official press release:

"Doomsday is coming back.
(...) we’ll confirm here that the Kryptonian killing machine will return to Earth early next year - and you don’t need me to tell you that’s never a good sign for the heroes of the DCU.
Doomsday will first make his presence known this January in STEEL #1 - but I can promise you, he won’t be the only hero facing Doomsday’s wrath for long.

Doomsday is one of the most popular villains in Superman’s canon of foes,” says Editor-in-Chief Bob Harras, “He injects a feeling of dread and chaos into the DC Universe that few other characters can.”
In other news, one of the exciting pieces of news to come out of last week’s DC Digital Store launch is the launch of some amazing back list titles in digital format - including The Death and Return of Superman. And if you haven’t read those stories before, you might want to do it sooner rather than later. Y’know, just sayin’…"


Alright!
People often say Supes doesn't have any interesting villains.
I really dig Doomsday! Can't wait to see him back in his full glory!
(unlike his last appearances..)
