The Batman v. Superman Train is Rumbling Down the Tracks!
Rumors are still swirling that Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice is going to have a huge, blowout appearance at Comic-Con next week. To get us even more excited for that moment, Entertainment Weekly has released a new set of images of the movie, including our first really good look at Wonder Woman!
Apparently print issues are still a thing!
Looks pretty good! I never for a moment thought she was only going to wear brown, based on those early pics. But this looks fine to me.
Here’s another picture of Diana with Bruce Wayne, so it looks like she’ll be stepping out out of costume at some point in the film.
If only this movie was called ‘Batman v. Superman v. Wonder Woman’
And hey, here’s a shot of Batman facing off against Superman, nifty!
They’re both gonna catch their deaths of cold in that rain
A couple more pics are at EW’s website, so swing on by. Maybe this movie won’t be so bad after all. And somebody get me some news on Robin, gosh darn it!

Ingvard the Tumblr Redesigns Female Superheroes
Welcome to Monday, everybody! It appears to be a somewhat quiet Monday so far, not a lot going on. So I thought I’d share this cool artwork I stumbled upon in my Internet surfing. An artist named Invgard the Terrible has redesigned a bunch of female superhero costumes, with explanations for his ideas. They look darn cool.
You can check out a bunch more at his Tumblr, just follow the link. I need to start featuring more art.

Those Other Two Justice League: Gods and Monsters Clips!
I posted the first Gods and Monsters clip when it came out, and I figure today’s a good day to fill you all in on the rest. We’ve got one starring the new Superman and one starring the new Wonder Woman. Enjoy!
I’m still not all that impressed. But it’s a lazy Monday, and we could all use a little entertainment!

New Bruce Timm DC Cartoon Is Alright, I Suppose
I dunno. Everybody’s making a big deal out of this Bruce Timm-designed new cartoon series, but I don’t think it looks all that interesting. It’s called Justice League: Gods and Monsters, and it’s a dark re-imagining that’s going to focus on evil versions of Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman. Along with the DVD movie, they’ve also produced a few mini-webisodes, and here’s the first one now. It’s the new Batman vs. a very scantily dressed Harley Quinn. Somehow, Timm came up with a way to make Harley’s outfit even skimpier than it has been in recent years.
Maybe the movie will be better, but then I haven’t been impressed by one of DC’s animated movies in a long time. Here’s an interview with Timm if you’re interested, but for me, I think this whole thing is going to be a pass. Adding heads in jars and skimpy underwear on Harley Quinn does not a good show make.

Wonder Woman is Going to Wear Pants After All!
Starting in June, Wonder Woman is getting a very conservative costume redesign. Not only will she get pants and sleeves, but she’s getting a pretty high collar as well. I am completely in favor of this change! The new costume is designed by current Wonder Woman artist David Finch.
Pants and arm stabby thingies
It’s just a shame that I stopped reading Finch’s Wonder Woman…
I definitely like the new costume. And in today’s world, with the push for treating female supeheroes equally, there was no excuse to keep Wonder Woman in that one-piece bathing suit. It just didn’t work anymore. This new outfit is pretty cool. Maybe I’ll pick up an issue or two. It’s not as modern as what Spider-Woman got, but it’s still a nifty new outfit for Wonder Woman.
Oh, and apparently Superman is getting a haircut and Batman is becoming a robot. So there’s a lot going on at DC, it would seem!
