After a weekend at WonderCon, I’m desperately in need of some sleep. But I did manage to get all my photos online, not just the ones taken with the phone. Check out my WonderCon 2014 Flickr album!
Update: I finally got around to writing up the con at K2R.
The “DC Entertainment” YouTube channel just uploaded an interview at WonderCon with upcoming FLASH writer Robert Venditti. The questions are the usual fare you’ve heard a alot lately…but take a look at what they put up on screen while they talk about Wally. This should answer a lot of questions (and possibly confirm some rumors). The question starts at 0:58 on the video…and the pics begin around 1:13, with a FACE showing up around 1:26. There is something else about those pics, but we’ll let you comment on that. The video can be seen just after the jump…so, what are YOUR thoughts???
Robert Venditti, the incoming co-writer of the Flash series, appeared at DC’s New 52 panel today at WonderCon. CBR was there to provide coverage of the event, and here are some of the Flash-related highlights. There are possible spoilers revealed here, although nothing major. The creators seem to be keeping most details close to the vest for now.
DC/WB has just announced an upcoming animated film called Batman: Assault On Arkham, which will co-star the original Captain Boomerang as part of the Suicide Squad. The film will apparently be set in the same universe as the Batman: Arkham video games, which did hint at Boomerang and the appearance of the Squad. It will be out on DVD and Blu-Ray, although the only release date that’s been given so far is a vague “mid-2014”.
Check out the trailer and let us know what you think.
DC Comics has announced a new Earth 2 weekly series over at Nerdist: World’s End. Set in the present-day DC Universe (or multiverse, more precisely), it will also relate to the five-years-later events of Future’s End. The series will be written by Daniel H. Wilson, Tom Taylor, Paul Levitz, Marguerite Bennet, and Mike Johnson, with art by Eddy Barrows, Jorge Jimenez, Stephen Segovia, Paulo Siqeira, and Tyler Kirkham.
As Earth 2 burns under the fires and fury of Apokolips, the planet’s few heroes unite to wage a futile war for survival against a dark god of unimaginable and unmatched power.
No word yet on whether the monthly Earth 2 series will end to make way for World’s End, but it seems likely.
Head over to Nerdist for a more detailed view of the preview art by Ben Oliver. Even if a certain modern-day Mercury seems to be missing…
Quick note: Danielle Panabaker and Carlos Valdes will appear as Caitlin Snow and Cisco Ramon on tonight’s episode of Arrow. The characters, based on Killer Frost and Vibe, are members of the Flash supporting cast and will appear as regulars on that show if the CW picks it up as a series.
