Issue 7 tells more than can be exspected

Issue 7 of Blackest Night revelealed some intersting things about the Guardians of the Universe. For starters life in the universe did not begin on their homeworld of Maltus as everyone has thought for the past century or so, but on Earth itself. And not only did the issue reveal this secret, but it also revealed the Entity, the living light bestowed upon the universe that triggered existance itself. The Guardians hide this fact to protect the Entity and establish their authority in the universe. What other secrets have the Guardians been hiding? Perhaps in the near future we shall find out.

Blackest Night drawing to an end

Heads up comic book fans, the multi-book spanning DC event Blackest Night is drawing to a close. Issue 7 of the series goes on sale February 24. So keep your eyes peeled folks. Nuff said

The Green Hornet, a whole new future.

Well fans, today I'm gonna talk about a character whose name and adventures are timeless, and thanks to the boys over at Dynamite Entertainment, he's being given a whole new start. That's right The Green Hornet is back and with a female Kato this time. But this is only the beginning, not only is writer Kevin Smith to thank for this outstanding new book, but Matt Wagner will be dusting off the original Masked Crime-fighters mask as he presents Green Hornet Year One, retelling some of the original adventures of Britt Reid/The Green Hornet and Kato. Look for these titles this spring folks, it something you don't want to miss.

Iron Man 2

May is months away, and it couldn't come sooner with the release of Iron Man 2 starring Robert Downing Junior once again playing billionaire playboy/superhero Tony Stark and Gwyneth Paltrow as Pepper Potts. With the film comes comes more well known characters, Scarlett Johansson as The Black Widow, Samuel Jackson returning as Colonel Nick Fury, Don Cheadle playing James Rhodes/War Machine and Mickey Rourke as new supervillain Whiplash. While most fans of the series may recognize the combination of characters into a new creation, for those who don't I'll fill you in. The main chunks for Whiplash come from Iron Man villain Crimson Dynamo (first appearing in Tales of Suspense #46). Now the first man in the Dynamo armor was Russian scientist Anton Vanko, but since we've already had one armored supervillain, Paramount decided to get a little creative this time. As for the whips that give the villain his name, they come from the character Blacklash (first appearing in Tales of Suspense #97), a weapons master not unlike Daredevil villain Bullseye. Let's hope that Paramount thrills us again. Nuff said.
