Justice League: the Flashpoint Paradox

This new animated movie is based on the graphic novel Flashpoint. It will feature Justin Chambers as the Flash, Micheal B. Jordan as Cyborg, and Kevin McKidd as Thamos Wayne/Batman. They say that the movie will stay true to the comic, but "they" say a lot of things. Peace out and, yes, I think that the Micheal Jordan doing the voice of Cyborg does also play basketball for the NBA

DC Comics Unlimited Figures

I have a couple of these figures and they look really nice. I want to find some of the Injustice ones though because those are my favorite. Here are two pictures of a bunch of these figures that you can blow up by clicking on them.

New Man of Steel LEGO Sets

Along with the Iron Man 3 sets, LEGO has made three new sets for the Man of Steel movie as well. These sets include Superman, General Zod, Faora-Ul,  Tor-An, Colonel Hardy, and Lois Lane mini figures. I just wish they had had a Jor-El mini figure too.

No One Likes Robin #4 (Finale?) Is Here!

It is here! The maybe finale for the great No One Likes Robin saga is finally here! You can watch this brilliant masterpiece of Robin-Hating if you promise to stop by YouTube to like, comment, and/or subscribe! Watch and learn people, videos like the aren't made everyday... without the help of my sister ComicHeart of course!

New Iron Man 3 LEGO Sets

I have recently found that LEGO has made three new sets to go with the Iron Man 3 movie. These sets include Iron Man Mark 42 armor, Aldrich Killian, Pepper Potts, Tony Stark, The Manarin, and an Extremis soldier. They also had War Machine Mark 2 (Iron Patriot without the paint job) instead of Iron Patriot himself. Later I will make a post about the new Man of Steel LEGO sets!
Iron Man Mark 42 and War Machine Mark 2

Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

 This new TV show airs on July 6, but the cast and crew will be at San Diego Comic Con for an epic panel! The show also has Agent Coulson, who died in the Avengers. This tells us that the show will either not be a part of the movie franchise, or the show takes place in the past. Go to marvel.com/news for more information.

News on Comix 2.0 has a whole new look with a new background and two sidebars. There is also a new feature to my awesome new blog- "Recommended Material ".

Sidekick To: The Incredible Hulk
Rick has been with Bruce Banner ever since the accident that turned Bruce into the Hulk!

3. Kid Flash

The Kid Flash was even willing to take up the mantle of his former mentor after the original Flash died.

2. Bucky

I'm Sorry, Aquaman!

Most of this week I've been fishing up in Alaska with my Grandpa and some friends. We did pretty good with 9 King Salmon, 7 Coho Salmon, and 5 assorted Rock Fish in four days! Because of this I just wanted to tell Aquaman I'm sorry if I caught any of his friends. Whoops.

The Wolverine 2013

As you may know from the earlier post, "Movies of Summer 2013", there is a new Wolverine movie coming out this summer. This movie will come out on July 26 and is based on the graphic novel below. In this graphic novel, Wolverine goes to Japan to see why an old lover has not responded to his letters. After finding out the answer, Wolverine must fight various enemies including the Silver Samurai to marry his old lover. That's as much as I can tell you without revealing to much of the plot to both the movie and the graphic novel.

 
 
 
This is a picture of the Silver Samurai from the comics. I suspect that the costume in the movie will be similar to this.

 

New Characters in the New 52 6/19/13

Hello, comic fans! I'm happy to tell you that there will be some new characters in the New 52! These characters are Giganta and, drum role please, Vandal Savage! To learn more visit www.dccomics.com/blog! I'll be adding some pictures of DC's newest additions as soon as possible.

Far Side Gallery #6



Dinosaurs vs. Aliens Review

Dinosaurs vs. Aliens is a graphic novel about an alien race that comes to Earth about 60 million years ago. This race wanted to make the Earth their own by wiping out the dinosaurs. Now the two sides will go to war over the planet Earth. Dinosaurs vs. Aliens is an amazing graphic novel by Grant Morrison (the creator of many awesome Batman graphic novels) that is one of the most original pieces I've ever read! I mean, seriously Disney, are you really just going to make a bunch of prequels, sequels, and 3D versions for your older movies? Dinosaurs vs. Aliens is something completely new and entertaining, and their only on their first volume! It's a short read but I'd still recommend it to all my friends- you hear that Blooperman? I'm telling you to read this!

Old Toys: Stroy w/ a Moral

About 7 years ago, I started buying this small action figures of heroes and villains in the DC Universe. I even had two of some. One of these was the Flash. A year ago I found that the Flash I played with as a kid was worth $25 in-package. Go figure.

Deadshot Figure: Story w/ a Moral

This isn't really a big deal or anything, I just wanted to show you guys what I got last week for free because his arm was broken! Poor little Deadshot would have died in a land fill with only his left arm if it hadn't been for me! This just goes to show that you should respect your collectables and not take them out of the packaging! Anyway, this is what I got. He's the Deadshot from the Arkham City video game, which is an awesome game I might add.

Amazing Spider-Man 2

If you enjoyed the Spider-Man movie that came out in 2012 that featured the lizard, you'll love the next one that comes out in 2014. This next movie will have Electro, the Rhino, and Norman Osborn! This movie may also answer the question many were asking after the movie: Who was that in the cell with Curt Connors? Being my amazing self, I knew it was probably Norman Osborn being his usual megalomaniac self within an hour. Don't question me! Here's  a picture of the new Spider-Man costume that will be in the movie. If you want to see the costume designs for the villains, either wait a week for me to post or look them up on Google Images!

Man of Steel Review

An over all awesome movie, the Man of Steel had a great backstory to where Superman came from, powerful villains, and even some LexCorp trucks and Wayne Industries satellites being smashed! Though some think that the action scenes went a little too long, I think the extra excitement is what made the movie great!

Far Side Gallery Comeback

I just finished reading an old Far Side Gallery book (which is a bunch of funny pictures that sometimes have captions) and I thought about posting a funny Far Side Gallery picture for an entire week! Here's todays:

DC Villains Month

In September 2013, DC will be sending out additional issues next to their usual ones. These issues have been hijacked by villains! These titles will be (hopefully) a once in a year type thing! Below is a list of titles I have found.

My New Video!

I have recently created a YouTube video will my friend Curly Fries called What Would Hulk Do? The video doesn't feature the Hulk, or even me in a hulk mask or green make-up. It features me with boxing gloves on. What? I have a budget! Anyway, skip the the end for some slow motion poundage!

No One Likes Robin Finale!


Hey everyone! My YouTube channel will be going through some serious changes, most importantly the loss of the No One Likes Robin videos. To end off the videos, I will create a grand finale! Maybe I will continue the series if the finale video gets at least 10 likes, or if I get 10 subscribers! I mean how hard is it to push button? And 10! Thats a puny number! You guys are better than that... anyway, here's No One Likes Robin #1 as a sampler! Remember, my YouTube username is Ray Awesomepants!

Marvel's Avengers Assemble Review

Marvel Universe has recently released new TV show called Marvel's Avengers Assemble. The show has a great story line, but isn't animated very well. On the other hand, they added the Falcon!

June Issues 2013

If you were wondering why I haven't been posting for a while, it's because Ive been in the Galapogos and Peru on vacation. I was still able to tell my dad to get some issues for me and get some my self when I got back!
-Aquaman #20: Return of a King Interlude:The Return of the Others [7/10] (Didn't seem relevant to the rest of the Aquaman story line.)
-Justice League 20: Despero's Revenge [10/10] (This issue reveals secrets that I had no ideas existed!)
-Justice League of America #4: The Secret Society Strikes! [9/10] (Catwoman died?! No way!)
-The Savage Hawkman #20: Blockbusted! [8/10] (I like it when the hero fights a ridiculously powerful monster-villian!)
-Injustice Gods Among Us #2 [10/10] (I never thought Joker would die.)
-Deadpool #9 [10/10] (He's just plain awesome.)
-Morbius the Living Vampire #5 [7/10] (Not enough ripping throats out for my taste.)
