DC‘s two most iconic heroes team up in a brand new Batman/Superman series by Greg Pak and Jae Lee out Wednesday. This will be the definitive story of how Bruce and Clark first met in The New 52. Pak reveals the timing of the series:
“Our story takes place around the time of Grant Morrison’s Action Comics #1. So it takes place when both of these guys are very young and very new to the whole superhero thing,” Pak told MTV GEEK .
“We’re going to have this fantastic opportunity to see how these very young guys view each other. Imagine finding out for the first time about some guy who runs around in a bat costume fighting crime or some guy with these insane powers doing the same thing. Each hero’s reaction to the other is going to surprise folks a little bit, because they’re both so new. Their reactions to each other are going to be a lot more dangerous than you’re used to thinking about when you think about Batman and Superman.”
“There’s a hugely Continue reading BATMAN/SUPERMAN #1

The film and book are very different. When asked about sequels Pitt responded:
“There is enough to mine from the book. We could barely get a fraction of the book in. So we’ll see. We’ll see.”
Here’s the trailer: Continue reading WORLD WAR Z Sequels?
Kitty Pryde has come a long way from being the teenager scared of Wolverine, unsure of her powers and crushing on Russian hunk. Kitty is now central to the X-Men starring in multiple books. I want to share part of Brian Wood’s Marvel.com interview about Kitty’s role on the new, all-female X-Men series:
“Traditionally, Kitty’s the brains of the outfit, and has a tendency to be the smartest one in whatever room she happens to walk into. Her role in this team is the strategist, the fixer, the problem-solver and the deliverer-of-wise-cracks. I like writing her as hyper-capable—well, they all are, really, but each in their own way. Kitty’s way is to be clever as hell, able to read people really well, and [she] is most likely to be the one Continue reading Brian Wood on Kitty Pryde in X-MEN
