Beware my power… Green Lantern’s light!

 

A Green Lantern movie has been known to be in the works for sometime now. We knew Ryan Reynolds, who snuck his way into movie geekdom by playing Wade Wilson/Deadpool, was attached. We had, also, heard rumors that this would be the first in a series of movies made to counteract Marvel’s Avengers movie line. But DC/Warner Bros. remained eerily silent about the film. Well, hold on to your power ring, Kilowog, cuz here it comes:

FestFlorPlan2010_02
David and I will have a table at the MOCCA Festival this saturday and sunday. M.O.C.C.A. stands for the Museum of Comic and Cartoon art. Lots of independent artists sell their comics, illustrations, toys and various other cool stuff at this venue.

The event will be held at 69th Regiment Armory @ 68 Lexington Avenue NYC. It starts at 11am on Saturday April 10th and we’re at table D2.

Both of us geeks will be selling various wares that we’ve created such as My Monster and Shapesmith Book, and David’s Little Guys short!!! We will also have a limited number of New York Geekcast posters to adorn your studio, bedroom or basement in your mom’s house.

And even if you don’t want to necessarily buy some of our awesome creations (Though why wouldn’t you?) you can still stop by the table and pick up a postcard, sticker, or just let us interview you about your love of comics and what you enjoy about MOCCA.

Scott Pilgrim VS. The World

 

I’m a fan of the Scott Pilgrim books and with the new trailer out I wonder what some of you think?

Being an animator I really feel that the charm of the book would be much better suited to a game or a traditionally animated feature.

Submitted for your approval…something 3-d and strange….with Bats….and Men….and creepy women.

Be prepared to consume a lot more DC products…

 

It looks like there’s some restructuring going on at DC by Warner Bros, going by this article on the Vertigo blog: Warner Bros. Creates DC Entertainment

“There are endless creative possibilities to build upon the many significant successes already achieved by my colleagues Kevin Tsujihara and the Home Entertainment Group in the videogame, home video and direct-to-platform arenas and Bruce Rosenblum and the Television Group in live-action, animated and digital series. Collectively, we have the ability to grow a body of properties highlighting the iconic characters and the diversity of the creative output of DC Comics.” – Jeff Robinov, President, Warner Bros. Pictures Group
