If At First You Don't Succeed...
...Fly, Fly Again?
Bryan Singer, Brandon Routh, and Co. are all out of a job. Warner Bros. is going to scrap the franchise and re-boot from scratch. I'm assuming this will mean that the continuity set forth by the Christopher Reeve films, and followed in Superman Returns will be left alone.
Thoughts? Reactions? I know that DC and WB are wanting to really compete with Marvel in the multiplex, and only the Batman films have been able to do that. With Green Lantern, Green Arrow, and various other DC/Vertigo properties in the works, is this a step in the right direction, or is this box office kryptonite?

Robin Flew the Coop
Chuck Dixon is "no longer employed by DC Comics in any capacity."
Oh, snap. What happened? TechnoGreek's got the hookup at DC...maybe he can find out?

Catwoman Whipped
Catwoman ending with issue #82.
One of my favorite titles...a casualty of low sales, or Final Crisis?

Justice League Limited
Following up on a comment John made in an earlier post, it does seem that the Justice League movie has been ported to the Phantom Zone.
The Wonder Woman movie, put on the back burner to focus on the JLA flick, is still in limbo as well.
This is all well and good for me. I may not read Marvel's comics, but they sure as hell make better movies than DC does. In fact, they're only a Captain America movie away from being able to assemble the Avengers (and they'd probably be able to get most if not all of the stars involved).
DC Comics and Warner Bros. can do a lot better, and until they prove that they can handle their individual characters correctly when they put them on the big screen I'm okay with them letting the ensemble piece go.

Holy Trailer Trash, Batman!
Here is the first trailer for the Mortal Kombat vs. DC game coming this fall.
I am going on record as saying that I will not buy this game (although I might rent it). There is quite a bit of "meh" around the webs, as gamers think that the crossover won't be able keep the spirit and mood of Mortal Kombat, mainly because of DC Comics' policies that prevent their properties to engage in Mortal Kombat-style gameplay (read: fatalities). Midway has nixed the fatalities due to said policy.
Which is so unfair! Everyone else gets to kill off The Flash...why can't I?
