Iron Can is your favourite superhero now
The hero you didn’t think you needed, in the trailer you never knew you wanted. Fresh from Youtube’s MovieDex comes a new kind of hero: ironing out evil, one wrinkle at a time.
Nifty New Trailer for Pixar’s Next Film, Inside Out
That was a pretty funny trailer, but I’m still not sold on Inside Out. I love the voice cast, but the premise kind of bugs me. This very much seems like a ‘wacky characters’ type of kids movie. Not saying those are always bad, but I expected more from Pixar.
Granted, I thought Brave would be more, but that was a huge let down. Bears? Come on!
Here’s an Official Final Trailer to The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies
For some reason, this doesn’t really feel like a goodbye to me. I bet it’s going to be a fun movie to watch in theaters. And I doubt they’ll ever make anymore. But something tells me The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, is just going to be too big and bombastic to be a very good bye. But maybe I’m wrong! At least they always make good trailers!
Gamer Girl & Vixen – Designing the Characters
Superhero costumes are a big deal, and rarely have they been so artistically beautiful. From Spider-Gwen to the new Batgirl, comic book artists these days are producing some truly stellar new costumes. I hope I’ll be that creative some day.
My competition!
So what the heck was I supposed to do in designing my own superhero for my upcoming indie comic, Gamer Girl & Vixen? I’ll be the first to admit that I don’t have much of an artistic eye. The most I can do is doodle, and even that is pretty haphazard at best. Still, a lack of insight is not a reason to give up. You can’t be afraid to just go ahead and create, so that’s what I did!
Fortunately for me, I’ve had a lot of help thanks to some very talented artists. As part of the ongoing blog series into the making of my new comic, join me after the jump for a behind-the-scenes look at how Kristi and I came up with the characters and the costumes of Gamer Girl and Vixen!

6 Things I Want to See in the Suicide Squad Movie
Apparently, by all accounts, the Suicide Squad movie is really happening. Even though big names like Will Smith and Jared Leto have been cast, I’m still having a hard time believing that DC Comics and Warner Bros. have chosen the Suicide Squad over the entire rest of their future lineup to make a movie about. Suicide Squad is the direct follow-up to Dawn of Justice. It boggles the mind!
But hey, I’m not one to turn down a good superhero movie, and maybe this will be a really good superhero movie!
Why isn’t the giant shark man in the movie?!
The Suicide Squad is one of those great comic book concepts. It’s about a team of super-villains put together by the government to run dangerous black-ops missions, and in exchange they get time knocked off their prison sentences. It’s a pretty ingenious way to take a bunch of classic villain characters and turn them into protagonists without erasing their menace. And quite honestly, the concept makes for a pretty awesome and original superhero movie. This won’t be an origin story, this won’t be a hero’s journey; this is an action film starring comic book badasses…so maybe that’s why they’re making it next!
Filming is scheduled to begin next year, so there’s plenty of time for producers to check out the six things I want in the Suicide Squad movie! You can check them out after the jump, and feel free to add some of your own ideas in the comments!
