I’m sure everyone is getting really tired of San Diego Comic Con news, but the news continues to flow. As we scour the Intardwebz looking for bits and pieces of news to share, here’s a Rapid-Fire Roundup of news from Dynamite, Bongo, Top Cow, Devil’s Du, Archaia, and Boom! Studios.

Following the cancellation of the series by CBS, fans get their chance to read the further adventures of the post nuclear war community thanks to Devil’s Due Publishing.

“‘Jericho’ is alive and well, thanks to the amazing fans who’ve driven us to find new and fresh ways to tell the Jericho story,” said Dan Shotz, co-executive producer of the show. “Josh Blaylock and the DDP team are great partners and have shown a true love for our show. We are so thrilled about this comic book series and the endless possibilities for the future of ‘Jericho.’”

The original Jericho producing team will be involved in the comic series.

While Jericho is popular with television fans, are those same people going to head to the comic book shop to seek out the new series?  Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Eureaka, and others fit the demographic to make the jump to comics, but Jericho tends to skew toward the older audience.

No release date has been set, but hopefully the word of mouth will spread enough to get the fan base into picking up the series.

Gee golly, that’s a lot of blood

Tim Seely’s Hack/Slash hits issue 20 and through it all, Cassie Hack and her sidekick Vlad have literally hacked and slashed their way from one end of the country to the next as the duo (and friends) take down slashers in some really gruesome ways.  With the trouble Devil’s Due had with the Reanimator story arc, I’m glad the series was able to make it through the storm, but what of the beloved goth girl and her monster friend?

Oh boy, nothing beats a girl in a bikini fighting Nazis.

I really don’t know what to think about trailers for comic books that companies put out.   On the one hand, I dig what people are doing with After Effects and 3D packages – something I’m very familiar with – but on the other, it’s a trailer…for a comic book… without a lot (if any) animation.

Devil’s Due Publishing has released its trailer for the upcoming Dawn of the Dread Force for you to check out.

When it rains, it pours.  First DC had printing issues with All-Star Batman and Robn, and now Devil’s Due Publishing has issues with two upcoming issues of Hack/Slash featuring Herbert West: Re-Animator.  The company sent a press release, but to be honest, I’ve read it a couple of times and it still doesn’t make sense.  It appears Brian Yuzna, the producer and owner of the Re-Animator film franchise, has no problem with what DDP is doing, but some new company called Re-Animator LLC claims it has the rights to the Re-Animator logo and is putting the pressure on Devil’s Due to not release the two issues.

DDP says they aren’t going to distribute the two issues through Diamond Comic Distributors, but instead will solicate the issues themselves, which pretty much means it will be next to impossible to find the issues anywhere but at the online store.

Check the complete press release after the jump.

While there were a lot of companies that had news to share in their panel, there really wasn’t enough to justify a single article for each.  To make sure we try to get as much complete coverage as we can, here’s a summary of the tid-bits coming from the rest.

Hot on the heals of the Transformers movie, is the rumor Megan Fox is interested in the role of Cassie Hack in the Hask/Slash movie directed by Todd Lincoln.

In every slasher movie, there’s one girl who makes it all the way to the end. She’s the survivor…the last girl. Meet Cassie Hack, the lone survivor of an attack by a vicious slasher called The Lunch Lady. Now Cassie, along with her monstrous partner, Vlad, travel the country, hunting down other slashers before they can leave a trail of blood and terror.

Looks like a match made in heaven (so to speak). What are your thoughts? Does Megan have the acting chops to play in the movie?

And just because it is Friday, take the jump for a hot FHM picture of Megan and a cover from Hack/Slash (purely for comparison purposes).

Lost_Squad_01_fc.jpgVariety is reporting that Rogue Pictures have purchased the film rights to Chris Kirby’s Lost Squad.

“Lost Squad” chronicles the adventures of a ragtag unit of Allied soldiers who fight Hitler’s occult agents and other supernatural threats during WWII.

It sounds an awful like Hellboy meets The Dirty Dozen, but I do likes me my WWII/stop the Nazis/horror/sci-fi films.  I’ll have to order up this six issue mini series and check it out.
