It’s that time loyal Spoilerites! The Comic Casting Couch is live, and this week we take a look at a hero who was introduced around the Infinite Crisis, has had his own series, and can be seen all over the DC Universe, The Blue Beetle!
We’ve scoured our brains and have come up with a list of our Top Ten Time Traveling movies that end up teaching us a thing or two about our desire to change past events.
In this issue: A popcorn comic reviewed, Superman owes for damages, and Darkwing Duck is back!?
Stephanie Brown has really come into her own as the new Batgirl, but when her old flame shows up, things can either go oh so wrong, or so, so right.
Ahh, the '70's. A time of Afros, bell-bottoms, and in the case of CBS television, attempts at superhero TV shows. This week, we're going to take a look at one of these TV movies, loosely based on WWII hero Captain America. So grab your clear Cap shield and motorcycle helmet and read on!
Batman: Streets of Gotham artist Dustin Nguyen has brought to life characters of the DCU with his unique and striking art style. Dustin’s art work can also be found in the pages of Wildstorm, Supernatural, and the Friday the 13th books. A favorite among comic fans, I had the pleasure to speak with him about his career, comics and the return of Bruce Wayne.
What happens when Alice runs away from a marriage proposal? You can check out some of the action for the upcoming Tim Burton Alice in Wonderland movie with this newly released trailer for the film that arrives in March 2010.

Well, it looks suitably Burtony and the pig made me chuckle. Didn’t know that it wasn’t going to be a retread of the original though. Granted every Alice adaptation ends up as a weird pastiche anyway, but they’re looking at an own goal if the marketing doesn’t absolutely hammer home that it’s meant to be a sequel. Imagine if Return to Oz had been released as The Wizard of Oz!
They could have called it something different so everyone would know it was a sequel and not a retelling of the original story. Other then that the movie looks….bleh. Is there ever going to be a moment when film makers realize what to much CGI is?
I love how the US version doesn’t have the Marriage portion of the trailer… As if Americans wouldn’t find Alice running away from a marriage proposal too demeaning on the British type.
@Ray – No… there will never be a moment when they realize what too much CGI is. Ask the guys at Dreamworks and Pixar.. lol. Besides, I love the look of the film. Depp doesn’t even need CG with his makeup, but I’m sure it’s a long wait while his face gets put on.
As with most Burton films…its my opinion that you either LOVE it or DON’T. Certain movies of his just seem to bite at your ankles with anticipation…this one however doesn’t…at least not for me anyway.
wow. Looks like a real expensive telemovie.
