Preacher Movie Still Alive?

Trust me, I'm as surprised as any of you but according to this item, the film's not dead, merely resting. I know I'm not the first to say that a multi-season TV series like Deadwood or The Walking Dead would be a better format for it but if it gets made in whatever way, I'll go and see it.

Mention was made in the article about Chris Pine playing Jesse Custer - I think he's a little too Hollywood leading man myself, though I did chuckle at the line:

Transformers star Shia LaBeouf reportedly interested in playing "Arseface."

Far be it from me to imply poetic justice for both the Transformers rubbish and the last Indiana Jones film.

Monday Memories #33 - Ghost/Batgirl #3

Each Monday this year I'll be taking a look back at a random comic, prestige format issue, graphic novel or collection of reprints from amongst my 3,000 or so comics that date from 1962 to 2003 - I figured anything in the last ten years would be too recent to hark back to.

The comics are chosen completely at random and apart from a four week lead-in period, even I don't know what I'll be looking at in the weeks to come!

DC's November Solicitations

FOREVER EVIL #3

So looks like my guess of the Crime Syndicate's involvement in Forever Evil was right.

Perusing Previews - August 2013

Oh sure, DC will bring their animated universe in line with the New 52 with the release of the Flashpoint Paradox but when it comes to coffee mugs, they're firmly stuck in the 70's.

Not saying that's a bad thing...
