News You Already Know

* DC made the announcement that the following series, "Robin", "Nightwing", & "Birds of Prey" were all being cancelled in December. What they have not told us yet is that the books are being replaced by the new series, "Red Robin", "Batman & Robin", and "Gotham's Bad Girls". The last one is suppose to following the adventures of Harley Quinn and Catwoman.

* While we are still waiting for the official word on Thor, Marvel Studios announced today the director for "The Fist Avenger: Captain America." Joe Johnston will be the director that brings the star-spangled avenger to the silver screen in May of 2011. Johnston is known for directing "The Rocketeer". For the record fanboys are rejoicing.

* In a recent interview with the Los Angels Times, singer/actress Beyonce talked about her plans to play Wonder Woman in the upcoming Warner Brothers film. It should be noted that there is no official announcement on a Wonder Woman project from the studio at the time. I idea of Beyonce playing Wonder Woman is a big of a long shot. Warner Brothers is very protective of the franchise players and are never to keen on making drastic changes like the color of Wonder Woman's skin.

DC Trinity

I hate when people take clips of movies and make trailers for movies that don't exist. It's annoying, poorly done, and a huge waste of space on the Internet. A new trend in comics books is for the publisher to make a trailer for their next big comic book event. Marvel's been doing them since Civil War and have already started doing them for this summer's Secret Invasion. DC has finally jumped on the trailer wagon with their trailer for Trinity
