Superman and Marvelman



I was really hoping that when Marvel acquired the Marvelman rights that we would finally see his Miracleman adventures reprinted.  Alas, that still has not happened so I suppose I will have to be a bit more patient while whatever legalities that still need addressing are worked out.

I am hoping for good things with the upcoming Man of Steel.  The teaser trailer definitely gave the vibe that it will be different from any other Superman movies - which is a good thing as Superman Returns suffered from being too reverential to the Reeve films, which gave it a "been there, done that" feeling.  I loved the quick glimpse of Superman flying and I hope we get lots of in-costume action, as opposed to him only suiting up in the final scenes.  We should see a full trailer soon enough, which will give us a better idea of what to expect.

  1. Another very nice cover. These two characters have both similar powers and similar costumes, so it seems like a very natural fit.

    For some reason, though, it makes me want to see X-Men vs. DNAgents.

  2. Now *I* want to see X-Men vs. DNAgents. We got the New Teen Titans vs. the DNAgents after all, so it's only fair.
