A surprise visit to an alien world on the set from Thor: Ragnarok may have fan speculation at light speed.

Director Taika Watiti, Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson greeted fans via Marvel Studios Facebook Live for the final day of shooting.

The director showed how they created a “sci-fi space wasteland” and “scrapers” aka actors dressed in robes plus a variety of alien weaponry on set of the sequel on the Gold Coast of Australia.

Mark Ruffalo (as the Hulk) will appear in the third Thor solo film.

Jeff Goldblum is playing the Grandmaster, a cosmic villain who pit heroes against each other in “Contests of Champions” for his amusement. In the comics the Grandmaster and Collector (Benicio Del Toro from Guardians of the Galaxy) are Elders of the Universe.

This was our first look at Thompson (sporting white streaks of face paint) playing Valkyrie. Karl Urban is playing Skurge and Cate Blanchett is portraying Hela, Goddess of the Underworld.

But a moment on the Facebook live set tour could mean an all-new version of “Hulk SMASH puny God!”

Batman’s search to build his own Suicide Squad in DC’s Batman #9 leads to a double shocker from featuring two very different DC iconic women.

The Dark Knight isn’t going it alone for his latest adventure but who will join him on an insane mission to invade Bane’s homeland?

I Am Suicide is the second Batman arc by Tom King. Mikel Janin joins King for the follow-up to I Am Gotham.

Only Psycho-Pirate can cure Gotham Girl of her madness. Bane is holding the mind-controlling villain in his prison on his island. The Dark Knight is working with Amanda Waller to go on a mission that can only be described as “suicide.”

This week’s issue sees the return of a major Batman rogue, some we haven’t seen a while and cameo connected to a greater mystery within the DC Universe. Continue reading BATMAN’S SUICIDE SQUAD Surprises
