I really like Genesis and think he has a great potential as a hero sometime in the future, maybe keeping a clone of another worlds Apocalypse dosent mean he wont try to ressurect himself anyway, it would be cool to see him do battle with his evil side. Of course i can see the Phoenix Force killing him before then, strange that a being of such potential should only appear a few months before one of the other most powerful beings in the Galaxy is due to make a return. Wouldnt suprise me to see Wolverine have to send this kid to his death to save everyone else after his fallout with Cyclops.

Good for them, i know its all about image and i know its probably not the deep and meaningfull version of events gay readers are craving, but its a start right? Im happy to see DC and Marvel embrace a bigger world and hope they will continue to make their characters more diverse as they go on.

im just.. i do want to see a BP movie, but lets be real

a black superhero, that is not as popular in mainstream like thor, hulk, captain america are.... i just don't see it bringing in big box office numbers

Hancock happened to get big numbers, but that is because of Will Smith.. who has a giant fanbase...

im just worried if it will be able to bring in sufficient numbers

cause lets be honest

there is a good amount of racist whites that will not want to see a black superhero.....

Get Will Smith to play him, problem solved ^_^

Right now the book i enjoy most is Scott Snyders Batman, ive never read an incarnation closer to my vision of Batman since the animated series in the 90s. In these books Batman isnt invinceable, he isnt unbeatable, but against all odds, when his backs against the wall he always pulls through. I love how Snyder plays up just how smart Bruce is, he has a plan for everything and he will never stop, not ever.

Its kind of hard to tell from a 2 min clip, but it dosent look all that great, that said ill still be watching it anyway. I really want a good super hero live action show on tv but the new 52 comic is really boring so i hope its better.

A Boba Fett movie could be pretty awesome, he already is one of the most recognisable characters in the whole Star Wars Universe and there is a weatlh of background they could pull from comics, books, games or even new stuff to explain what he did off screen. That said, id be interested in anything Star Wars related providing Lucas takes a back seat and just produces, the Clone Wars series has been fantastic and he has had only minimal input into that so i think that would be the best way to go.

Pandora's secret that is that DCnU flops month after month. Over 20 of The New 52 now do cancellations numbers already! DCnU's top books lose thousands of readers month after month. Lots of others do worse than before the reboot! Time to fix this mess and bring back the real DCU!

Well Pre 52 DCU was not doing great. At least DC can now point to dominating Top 10 Sales Lists. What is your solution to DC's sales and lack or retention?

I never read a Dc comic before the new universe except the Red Robin, and now I enjoy at least 10 comics a month so what's the problem. The old stuff was rubbish and the editors knew it. As for cutting books it makes sense... from the sales and marketing point of view. I liked the New world finest issue, and if some weren't canceled this would not see the light of day... Just sayin'

I agree with Planwalker, before the new 52s i used to download the odd comic via Sonys now defunct comic book store but i never really got into any of the DC stuff and for the most part id read Marvel or Image. Since the new 52s i am now collecting 25 of the books a month which is pretty huge for me, the history and legacy of the the existing characters had become so confusing for new readers that outside of graphic novels i had no real way of getting in.

DC have had most of the top 10 comic books tied down since the re-launch, i remember a couple of times where it was only DC books in there so even if some of the older fans are disgruntled, you cant argue with the results. Clearly the universe needed a reboot or it would have kept going the way it was, if the old universe stuff was still doing great numbers there is no way they would have gone ahead with it.

I was pretty pissed when i found out they had droppped Norton from the Hulk role and i wasnt sure how id react to seeing a totally new Banner in Avengers but Rufalo blew me away. He was indredible in the role and very believable, id definetly go see a movie with him as Banner/Hulk.

I agree, Loki was a fantastic choice for the role and did a great job of setting being both menacing and a little likeable too. It will be very interesting to see what they do with the new bad guy (youll have to watch through the end credits) and if s/he will be in any of the other movies before Avengers 2.

Awesome, congratulations Sara, well deserved!
