Looking Ahead At DC’s Movie Slate – Summer 2013 Edition
June 20, 2013 1:05 am I dont think I could handle another disappointment like Man Of Steel.
That said though I would love to see a really good Shazam movie. I think the idea of a kid with the powers and responsibility of Superman is really fascinating. Im sure Shazam is on the bottom of DCs list for upcoming movie adaptations though.

TRAILER: Your First Extended Look at ‘Beware the Batman’
June 20, 2013 12:49 am Wasn't interested until I saw this trailer. I think it is cool how they have managed to incorporate a bunch of different styles from Batman's history. His suit looks part Nolan Batman but the ears feel very original Bob Kane Batman and the Batmobile feels like the animated series. Title treatment is pretty solid too.

‘Iron Man 3’
May 5, 2013 9:42 am This is easily my favorite Marvel movie next to The Avengers. I really appreciated how different it felt from the other two Iron Man movies. I think instead of playing it safe and following a more conventional structure they went with something much more clever and original. At times it feels more like a Bourne movie than an Iron Man movie and it gives you a whole new side to Tony that we've never seen.
I think people are disappointed not because the movie was bad but because they wanted/expected a different movie. I think you could have made a different version of this film that would have also been good but would have been more typical and safe as opposed to the movie we got which is really interesting and challenging.

You Tell Us: Who is Your Definitive Batman Artist? [Update]
January 12, 2013 1:33 pm The cover of Batman 516 is one of my all time favourite drawings of Batman. Kelley Jones at his best.

January 10, 2013 10:36 pm SHAMELESS SELF PROMOTION:
I think I draw a pretty mean Batman. This is definitely inspired by Neal Adams Batman.
If I didnt already vote for Kelley Jones I'd vote for myself. (just kidding)

You Tell Us: Who is Your Definitive Batman Artist? [Update]
January 10, 2013 10:29 pm Im surprised by how little love there is for Kelley Jones. I have to admit that at times you would get an issue where his art was a little sloppy but when Jones is at the top of his game his Batman is like no other.

Kelley Jones does such a great job of drawing Batman as a man but also as a creature. I can understand his style turning people of because it is kind of unconventional but I think it is great.
