Marvel’s Dan Slott Continues Blasting Batman Vs. Superman On Twitter

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23081:]]

A couple of hours ago saw Marvel Comics writer Dan Slott voice his thoughts on the new Batman Vs. Superman footage that debuted earlier on Gotham.

Dan isn’t too happy by what he is seeing regarding Superman, and he also wasn’t a big fan of Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel.

Following Cosmic Book News having made note of what Slott had to say (where he deleted his “I dunno. Do you really think Superman would snap one of his enemy’s necks?” comment), Slott has continued blasting both Batman Vs. Superman and Man of Steel on Twitter as well as having to defend himself against accusations of being a Marvel shill, which sees DC Comics Batman writer Scott Snyder brought into the conversation.

Check out the latest tweets (we’re guessing this may go on all night long):

Check out Twitter reactions below, with probably the biggest controversy being the way Superman acted.

Is this a Batman nightmare sequence? Superman being mind-controlled? Bizarro? Is Batman actually scared?!

Superman Lives Brainiac Concept Art & Designs

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:22945:]]

Check out Superman Lives concept art and designs of Brainiac, who was to be the villain of the film, which was to be directed by Tim Burton and set to star Nicholas Cage as the Man of Steel.

In the Kevin Smith version of the script, Brainiac blocks out the sun to make Superman powerless and sends Doomsday to kill Big Blue, in which he succeeds. Brainiac also teams up with Lex Luthor in the film, but Superman is brought back to life by the Krytonian robot known as The Eradicator. The casting for the movie was said to have wanted: Ben Affleck as Clark Kent / Superman, Linda Fiorentino as Lois Lane, Jack Nicholson as Lex Luthor, Famke Janssen as Mercy, John Mahoney as Perry White, David Hyde Pierce as the Eradicator, Jason Lee as Brainiac and Jason Mewes as Jimmy Olsen.

The art comes from propstore.com who recently auctioned off a Superman Lives lot.

Advanced Review: Superman: American Alien #1 (of 7)

The last few years have been tough on the overall character of Superman. He has been lacking a true form of identity, shifting between a depowered “everyman,” an infected Doomsday clone, as well as the most recent, “god of power” incarnation — while the character of Clark Kent has been left by the wayside to fall into his own obscure oblivion until further called upon.

Well, look no further for a glimmer of hope to bring Clark Kent back to the forefront! Max Landis has crafted a tale of pure joy and wonderment in his Superman: American Alien book, and it will invigorate even the most skeptical of readers, I should know, I am one!

Going into this book, I was dreading what may yet defile DC’s “Golden Boy” even more than what he has endured in the recent past. But from page one, Landis encapsulated the sheer amazement that those tales all lacked and by page two, I wasn’t believing that a boy could fly, but I was damn sure rooting for him to! Landis has woven a tale that brings the heart and soul back to the Superman mythos, and no one should pass it by!

We follow a young Clark Kent that is both frightened of himself and by what may be done to him if anyone learns his secret. His journey is laced with nostalgia and overpowering in youthful invigoration. Readers will find themselves grinning emphatically over Clark’s exuberance and innocent wonder and will feel connected to the character more than they have in years. But this tale is not purely about young Clark, it is about the Kent’s as a family dealing with extraordinary things while trying to teach their adopted son how to act like a man regardless of what his DNA may say. 

Landis couldn’t tell this story alone, and Nick Dragotta is the perfect artistic compliment to his tale of a prepubescent Clark. Dragotta’s bold, clean lines accentuate that youthful vigor ever present in the tale while creating crisp action sequences that will make your heart soar!

Max Landis has stated that each issue will revolve around completely different parts of Clark’s life with a different artist for each part as well. If each issue is as complete and thrilling as this first one, fans will not only clamor to get back into the Superman fold but they will bring as many readers with them as they can!

Batman Vs. Superman Merchandise References Joker & Robin Costume

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:22859:]]

Following the earlier Batman promo image, additional Batman Vs. Superman merchandise images have hit the net featuring Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman.

We also see what looks to be a Joker car with the packing reading: “Guthams Dark Protector.” Batman’s horns are circled (or it’s a halo), Gotham City Police Department is crossed out,  and “HERO” is written over Batman, with the Bat symbol behind the vehicle.

We see the writing on the Joker packaging is similar to the Robin costume from the Batman Vs. Supreman trailer (pictured above), which seemingly confirms Joker’s involvement one way or another.

David Goyer Defends Man Of Steel & Talks Christopher Nolan Batman

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:22675:]]

David Goyer recently appeared on a Nerdist podcast where he talked about creating the Christopher Nolan Batman movies, mentioned how studios want to emulate Disney and Star Wars, and he also defended Man of Steel.

Below you can check out the podcast and text (via indiewire):

Nolan Batman:

“We got lucky in that ‘Batman and Robin’ had not done well. And there had been a lot of who people who had attempted to do Batman films in the interim. Mark Protosevichhad written another one, and there was going to be an R-rated [Darren] Aronofsky one, and Boaz Yakin was going to do ‘Batman Beyond,’ and[Andrew] Kevin Walker did a ‘Batman [and] Superman, there were all these stillborn things that had not happened in the intervening period. So by time Chris and I came along they knew they had to do something radical. And they were kind of desperate. I just remember when I got the job, everyone was saying, both online and amongst my friends, ‘Oh, that’ll never get made.’ “

“We knew that we were coming in from a deficit. There was negative connotation with the character, so we had to get past that, much less it even being a good movie. We were aware that it had to be radically different, but that said, it wasn’t the guiding principle. I don’t think you can create something just as a reaction to something. The guiding principle was, ‘What if we play it straight?’ And then reverse engineer it down to everything, the utility belt, the Batmobile…the previous Batmobiles that had been in the [Tim] Burton films, that was not a practical car. You could barely turn a corner. So we just said, ‘What if it’s real?’ ”

Shared movie universes:

“I think [audiences] are savvy to do the idea that, ‘Oh, this isn’t a film, this is a piece of commerce now, in this ongoing franchise.’ If you go to the studios now, everyone wants story universes because they’ve seen what Marvel or what Lucasfilm has done. Not to say that what Marvel and Lucasfilm have done isn’t amazing, but all the other studios want to do the exact same thing. And so you’ve got, whether they’re successful or not, all these different studios saying, ‘How do we keep up with our own elite universe?’ Now it’s not just enough to say, ‘Oh, I hope this is a three movie franchise,’ it’s ‘Oh, I hope this is a nine movie…’ — it’s a ten year plan.”

“You’ve got all these projects — and I won’t name them — that are going out there that’s like, ‘This is going to be the first in a projected eight movie thing.’ And you’re like, ‘How about starting with just making a good movie?.’ There have been a lot of good sequels, and it’s really hard to do a third film. It’s incredibly hard to do it the third time out, especially if you’re not designing them to be one long story. In the Batman films, we weren’t. When we finished ‘The Dark Knight,’ we didn’t say, ‘We’ve set these seeds to do x, y and z.’ We had no idea what we were going to do. Chris always felt like, each movie has to have its own integrity, and if you have a great idea, use it, and don’t think about a sequel. And if you do that really well, it becomes harder to do a sequel. But at the same time, if you’re trying to do a presumptive trilogy, I think audiences are starting to catch on to this, and be a little weary of it.”

Man of Steel:

“The way I work, the way Chris works, is you do what’s right for the story. That exists entirely separately from what fans should or shouldn’t think of that character. You have to do what’s right for the story. In that instance, this was a Superman who had only been Superman for like, a week. He wasn’t Superman as we think of him in the DC Comics…or even in a world that conceived of Superman existing. He’d only flown for the first time a few days before that. He’d never fought anyone that had super powers before. And so he’s going up against a guy who’s not only super-powered, but has been training since birth to use those super powers, who exists as a superhuman killing machine, who has stated, ‘I will never stop until I destroy all of humanity.’ “

“If you take Superman out of it, what’s the right way to tell that story? I think the right way to tell that story is if you take this powered alien who says, ‘You can have your race back, but you have to kill your adopted race,’ the moral, horrible situation to be in is to actually be forced to kill, not wanting to, the only other person from your race. Take Superman aside, I think that’s the right way to tell that story.”

Watch: Anthony Mackie Doesn’t Like Man of Steel

“What was the last good DC movie you saw?” Mackie asks in the above video before he proceeds to argue against Man of Steel being a good movie.

Of course Anthony Mackie is a Marvel man and will be appearing in Captain America: Civil War, which follows Batman Vs. Superman.

Interestingly enough, Marvel announced Captain America vs. Iron Man following WB’s announcement of Batman Vs. Superman. The two movies even originally shared the same release date prior to WB moving up BvS to March.

There has been an ongoing battle between Marvel and DC, with the most previous coming from Zack Snyder with mention that Ant-Man was a flavor of the week movie. 

Years ago also saw Robert Downey Jr. state f-ck DC Comics about Nolan’s The Dark Knight:

The Dark Knight. “My whole thing is that that I saw The Dark Knight. I feel like I’m dumb because I feel like I don’t get how many things that are so smart. It’s like a Ferrari engine of storytelling and script writing and I’m like, ‘That’s not my idea of what I want to see in a movie.’ I loved The Prestige but didn’t understand The Dark Knight. Didn’t get it, still can’t tell you what happened in the movie, what happened to the character and in the end they need him to be a bad guy. I’m like, ‘I get it. This is so high brow and so fucking smart, I clearly need a college education to understand this movie.’ You know what? Fuck DC comics. That’s all I have to say and that’s where I’m really coming from.”

The new Aquaman followed that up recently as a fan requested Jason Momoa write “F— Marvel” on a poster:

Hollywood screenwriter and Eisner Award nominee Max Landis (Chronicle, American Ultra, ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN) joins forces with top comics artists including Jock, Francis Manapul and Jae Lee to bring you SUPERMAN: AMERICAN ALIEN, a 7-issue miniseries chronicling the life of Clark Kent and his development into the archetypal hero he will eventually become. But these are not the stories of the iconic “Superman” as you know him, but of the soft-spoken, charming, often-funny Kansas farm-boy behind the Man of Steel. With the tone of each issue ranging from heartwarming and simple, to frighteningly gritty and violent, to sexy, sun-kissed and funny, SUPERMAN: AMERICAN ALIEN is unlike anything you’ve seen before. In this first issue, superstar artist Nick Dragotta (East of West, Fantastic Four) illustrates the story of Jonathan and Martha Kent as they struggle to deal with their 12-year-old son’s latest quirk—he’s been floating up into the air, sometimes hundreds of feet!

Bizarre! Visual Effects Mistake Spotted In Batman Vs. Superman?

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:22632:]]

We recently learned that the visual effects in Batman Vs. Superman have been completed (and whether or not Doomsday is in the film), but the VFX guys may want to go back and double check their work.

Cosmic Book News recently posted a new Superman image which sees Big Blue battling Batman.

TheHeroHangout Twitter replied to our tweet pointing out what looks to be a mistake with Superman’s cape, which is mostly done with CGI. The normal look of Superman has the cape attached to his neckline, but the image showcasing the Batman Vs. Superman fight has the cape attached to the shield. Bizarre, eh?

Batman Vs. Superman Trailer Should Be Coming Soon Says Zack Snyder

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:22613:]]

With the premiere of Batman Vs. Superman only being five months away, a new trailer should be dropping soon. As director Zack Snyder took part in the event for Bob Kane’s Hollywood Star recently, 411 Mania caught up with Snyder to get an update.

Snyder noted, “I think we got to have a trailer soon,” and seeing how he has a friendly rivarly with JJ Abrams, added he is “hoping to” up the ante (the new Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer saw over 100 million views in its first 24 hours of release).

Snyder also went on to explain that the focus of Batman Vs. Superman is to create the larger DC cinematic universe.

“Listen. I want to — we’re working toward Justice League, and I really want to create the — part of the thing I really want to create is the possibility of a world where they could exist together,” Snyder offered. “I think up to this point, it’s been difficult to suggest a world where Batman and Superman and Wonder Woman and others could exist in the same universe. That was one of the things I really wanted to try and get at. Not to mention, the amazing opportunity to bring those characters and have those characters tell an important story, their own story, within the confines of a film.”

Snyder are talks more about the Batmobile.

“It’s got this crazy gun [on the front part of the vehicle]. It’s super-fast. It’s electrified. It can do all the other Bat-car stuff. But the cool thing I liked about it is that it’s a purpose built Batmobile, right? Which is kind of fun to get back to that.”

“Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” has a March 25, 2016 release starring Ben Affleck as Batman, Henry Cavill as Superman, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Laurence Fishburne as Perry White, Diane Lane as Martha Kent, Jeremy Irons as Alfred, Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, Ray Fisher as Cyborg with Callan Mulvey, Holly Hunter as Senator Finch and Tao Okamoto as Mercy Graves. Justice League is to follow directed by Zack Snyder as well.

Synopsis:

Fearing the actions of a god-like Super Hero left unchecked, Gotham City’s own formidable, forceful vigilante takes on Metropolis’s most revered, modern-day savior, while the world wrestles with what sort of hero it really needs. And with Batman and Superman at war with one another, a new threat quickly arises, putting mankind in greater danger than it’s ever known before.

Batman Vs. Superman Timeframe Revealed & Prologue Scene

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:22603:]]

The latest issue of Total Film Magazine has a featured article on Batman Vs. Superman. Affleck has talked about directing a solo Batman movie; it’s revealed the script was changed to accomodate Jesse EisenbergGal Gadot, Henry Cavill and Zack Snyder have talked about Wonder Woman, and now we learn the timeframe of the movie compared to Man of Steel as well as a related prologue scene.

The magazine article reveals that Batman Vs. Superman takes place 18-24 months following Man of Steel. Cavill and Affleck both talk about the trailer scene which features Bruce Wayne running to save people admist the battle between Superman and Zod – described as being from “Wayne’s-eye-view perspective.”

Cavill offers: “What happens there is one of Bruce’s buildings gets destroyed and he’s trying to save all the people inside the building and he can’t. So he is this angry person who fears what Superman may do. Why are they just going to trust this super-powered alien? What if he does decide to turn against us?”

Ben Affleck adds: “One of the interesting things about Batman is he functions in some ways as an antagonist: you have to remember, this is Batman versus Superman. He’s found himself in a place of harboring a tremendous amount of rage for Superman. So it’s how he got there, and what that’s done to him, and what that’s done to people around him like Alfred, who are, I think, very scared and worried for him. It’s something that’s interesting and new.”

David Goyer Has Seen Batman Vs. Superman (Video)

In addition to letting it be known the SyFy Krypton TV series will connect to Man of Steel, David Goyer also offers his reaction to having seen Batman Vs. Superman.

“Yes, I’ve seen it,” Goyer confirmed, who helped write and is an executive producer on Batman Vs. Superman. “I think just a kind of giddiness at being a kid that grew up going to the comic book store every Saturday and reading comic books in which these two epic characters clash… Just the fact that I got to be involved in something like that is crazy. Much less I got to be involved in two cinematic iterations of Batman is also crazy.”

Goyer is also asked if Batman Vs. Superman exceeded his expectations more than Man of Steel, which he also wrote.

“There’s some cool stuff that happens in the film. Let’s just leave it at that.”

Description:

Hollywood screenwriter and Eisner Award nominee Max Landis (Chronicle, American Ultra, ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN) joins forces with top comics artists including Jock, Francis Manapul and Jae Lee to bring you SUPERMAN: AMERICAN ALIEN, a 7-issue miniseries chronicling the life of Clark Kent and his development into the archetypal hero he will eventually become. But these are not the stories of the iconic “Superman” as you know him, but of the soft-spoken, charming, often-funny Kansas farm-boy behind the Man of Steel. With the tone of each issue ranging from heartwarming and simple, to frighteningly gritty and violent, to sexy, sun-kissed and funny, SUPERMAN: AMERICAN ALIEN is unlike anything you’ve seen before. In this first issue, superstar artist Nick Dragotta (East of West, Fantastic Four) illustrates the story of Jonathan and Martha Kent as they struggle to deal with their 12-year-old son’s latest quirk—he’s been floating up into the air, sometimes hundreds of feet!

David Goyer Talks Defunct Green Arrow Movie; Won’t Be Directing DC Movies

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:22477:]]

Back around 2008, a Green Arrow movie was in development from David Goyer (writer on the Batman The Dark Knight movies and Man of Steel) and Justin Marks (writer on Top Gun 2 and The Jungle Book). The plot of the movie centered on Oliver Queen being framed for murder and sent to prison, with his subsequent escape. The movie was titled “Green Arrow: Escape From Super Max” and featured a host of villains including Joker, Riddler and Lex Luthor.

While recently speaking to Den Of Geek, Goyer made note that with DC doing a villain-centric Suicide Squad movie, his Green Arrow film was ahead of its time.

“I think it absolutely was,” Goyer said about the project.. “I think if that script had come over the transom a couple of years later… It was completely ahead of its time. By the way, everything I see about Suicide Squad looks fantastic and it’s a different story. But it was absolutely ahead of its time. You know, Marvel was considering doing the Sinister Six and at the time, God, I think this was eight or nine years ago that we wrote a couple of drafts, but it certainly was like this oddball project at Warner Bros at the time, they were like – even though the script was good – ‘why would we make a movie about a bunch of villains? That makes no sense.’”

Goyer continues with mention that Warner Bros. at the time just wanted to focus on the more popular characters in their stable, but now with Marvel having success with Guardians of the Galaxy and Ant-Man, it was only a matter of time before a villains movie saw the light of day.

“The executive on it was really visionary,” Goyer said. “But the higher-ups, none of whom are at Warner Bros any more, just thought at the time, you know, we just want to make Batman and Superman movies. We don’t want to make any other characters. But this is before Marvel had really taken off, before more obscure projects like Guardians Of The Galaxy or Ant-Man or things like that had huge success, before the current gold rush I guess, if you will. It’s natural that eventually someone was going to make a villain movie, so that’s just what happened!”

The report also notes Goyer said he isn’t planning on directing any of the upcoming DC movies.

DC Announces New Green Lantern Corps, Swamp Thing, Wonder Woman & More For January

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:22472:]]

DC Comics announces new titles and creative changes for January 2016.

A new Swamp Thing series will debut written by legendary co-creator Len Wein, with art by comics icon Kelley Jones. In this ongoing series, Swamp Thing receives an ominous warning and finds himself under attack from the forces of dark magic. These are more than just your average monsters, however! And if that’s not enough, there’s something much worse looming on the horizon for Alec Holland!

Poison Ivy: Cycke Of Lfe and Death is also announced for January which will be written by Amy Chu with art by Clay Mann. In this six-issue miniseries, Dr. Pamela Isley joins the prestigious plant sciences department at Gotham Botanical Gardens. But when a fellow scientist is murdered and it looks like the work of Poison Ivy, what happens next?

Wonder Woman gets a new Digital First series with Wonder Woman! The Legend Of Wonder Woman, a nine-issue digital series written and illustrated by Renae De Liz, with inker/colorist Ray Dillon. In the beginning there was only chaos. But Hippolyta, Queen of the Amazons, sees a better future – and eventually her daughter is destined to bring that new world to life. But before her ultimate destiny is revealed, Diana of Themyscira must learn the important lessons of an Amazonian childhood!

Tom Taylor will also be filling in on January’s Batman/Superman #28 with guest artist Robson Rocha. This new three-part epic is an untold tale from Bruce and Clark’s early crime-fighting careers, as Batman and Superman are pitted against a menace that will not only test their partnership, but their friendship as well!

Tom Taylor also gets his chance to go cosmic with Green Lantern Corps: Edge Of Oblivion featuring art by fan-favorite Ethan Van Sciver. The series picks up where Green Lantern: Lost Army left off, with a John Stewart-led GL Corps still seeking a way home, but with the universe around them on the verge of total collapse! Along the way they’ll face dying gods, worlds torn asunder and a desperate group of survivors whose only hope is this band of ring-bearing cosmic heroes.

Watch: Neil deGrasse Tyson Explains Batman Vs Superman

Renowned astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson is back once again choosing Superman over Batman.

Tyson previously said “Batman is just a guy with a nice belt,” and now says more of the same in that Batman wouldn’t stand a chance in a cage fight versus Superman.

Tyson also goes on to make a point that we all know Batman is human while Superman is Superman.

“Superman would wipe his butt with Batman,” Tyson offers. “That’s basically what would happen there.”

Tyson then goes on to say a better fight would be Batman Vs. Iron Man as they are both human.

The astrophysicist does say that Batman does stand a chance against Superman, just not in a physical confrontation. Batman would need to go a different avenue, such as in the court of public opinion (or even one that of the government).

Watch the video above for more.
