As in the comics, Matt Murdock is a blind lawyer who is secretly Daredevil. (Unlike the comics, he has dark black hair, at least if the presentation drawing is anything to go by.) By day, he pals around with his teenaged niece and his seeing-eye-dog. But when evil strikes, he becomes Daredevil, his dog becomes Lightning, the Super Dog ( I love teh way, in teh production drawing, Lightning affects a pose of mild-manneredness in his civilian guise as Matt’s seeing-eye dog…), and the three of them take to the streets in Daredevil’s specially-equipped van.

Now, stop and think about this for a minute: who’s driving the van? Is it the blind guy, the underage girl, or the seeing-eye dog?

Anyway, once they find a crime in progress among the rooftops—which is where most of the crime in New York City typically takes place—Matt moves to the back of the van to the giant cannon, which unfolds from the top. And then, his niece launches him skyward…like a Daredevil…

These are pretty badass.

Trailer News: Watchmen Poster Comparison - Trailer Addict

Below is a poster comparison between the Watchmen posters released at 2008 San Diego Comic Con and the same character posters released by DC Comics back in 1986. Just place your mouse over each image to see the comparison.

Ok, the hype was reasonable. I dug it. It was probably the best plotted and executed movie of the summer for me. I still enjoyed Iron Man more.

Go get the HD version on IGN.

This guy has done some great stuff.

IGN: Behind the Cover: Thor & Daredevil

In many ways, Djurdjevic set a new standard for Marvel, stunning fans with his spectacular eye for realism. We remember when the first covers for Blade and X-Men: First Class were shown - our jaws dropped.

From there the digital painter has moved to Daredevil, Thunderbolts and numerous other franchises (be sure to check out the “collection” of his covers below - it’s already missing a few due to the volume of work he produces). However one character in particular is setting a bit of a milestone for Djurdjevic - Thor.

So there is a Batman Anime styled animated movie coming.  Its done like the Animatrix, with several stories done by different groups with diffeent styles.  It looks kinda badass.

Iron Fist is one of the best comics out there, and Iron Man can be a great character (look at the first Ultimate run).  This could be cool.

EXCLUSIVE: Fraction & Larroca on Iron Man - Marvel.com News

“Iron Man” will make its way into theaters everywhere on May 2, but writer Matt Fraction (IMMORTAL IRON FIST) and artist Salvador Larroca (AMAZING SPIDER-MAN) will launch Tony Stark into INVINCIBLE IRON MAN later that month.

I’d watch that.

The Big Picture with Colin Boyd

“I talked with Neil Gaiman…I said, that’s an interesting character because you can definitely make him more in the pulpy occult detective/magician mould and formula than was done in the Weird Tales, for example…the idea of a character that really dabbles in the occult in a way that’s not X-Filey, where the supernatural is taken for granted. That’s interesting…But I wouldn’t use the suit!”
