WATCH: First « Iron Fist » Teaser Trailer – After its debut at Comic-Con International in San Diego, the first teaser trailer for Marvel and Netflix’s « Iron Fist » series has arrived online.

Clearly a teaser meant to raise questions more than answer them, this first look at « Iron Fist » gives glimpses of Danny Rand’s childhood, what appears to be his arrival in the mystical city of K’un Lun, the lead character struggle with restraints and subsequently using his power — the titular iron fist — to punch through a wall.

A release date hasn’t yet been announced for « Iron Fist, » but like « Daredevil, » « Jessica Jones » and the September-debuting « Luke Cage, » it will lead to the « Defenders » miniseries, teaming up each of the street-level heroes. « Iron Fist » stars Finn Jones in the title role, and has « Six Feet Under » veteran Scott Buck on board as showrunner.

Cyclops

It’s easy to rag on Cyclops. After all, he’s the leader of the team and his nearly uncontrollable optic blasts force him to live a life of restraint. He’s the guy that characters like Wolverine rebel against. For much of the X-Men’s history, Cyclops has led mutantkind in the fight against persecution, making personal sacrifices along the way.

The mystery of what happened to the X-Men after Secret Wars will be revealed in a new series from Jeff Lemire, Charles Soule and Aaron Kuder.

Continuing its steady stream of new series reveals, Marvel Comics has announced a new X-Men series — « Death of X. »

Announced via EW, the four-issue series comes from writers Charles Soule and Jeff Lemire and artist Aaron Kuder and will answer a question X-Fans have been asking for months: What happened during the 8-month gap after « Secret Wars »? All that’s known so far is that Cyclops was involved in a massive war with the Inhumans — a war that cost him his life and reputation.

« We’ll definitely see some characters who have been missing in action since the series launch,” Lemire told EW. « We’ll answer the question of where certain mutants have been, and what’s happened to them. Cyclops is the big one, he’s the one we’ve said was dead and that’s all we’ve really said. His death was very controversial, so obviously that’ll be a big part of the story we’re telling here »

« Death of X » was first announced in March, when Marvel debuted an enigmatic teaser image with a Fall 2016 date. The new artwork, featuring a screaming Cyclops against a background of mutants and Inhumans, incorporates the original’s « Death of X » logo into its design.

« Death of X » arrives in October.

Avis Pimpf :

EN  : Stan Lee is one of the major personality in the comics industry that is still alive, he ‘s the creator of most iconic Marvel Characters and At 93  he’s still around and we’re lucky to have him , I can imagine that from now on he will have to take things easily and that is normal. When he’ll disappear he will sure leave a big mark in the industry and among fans, even though there has been controversy about how much he was involved in developping all the characters he designed , those last years he always gave credit to the artists he worked with like Jack Kirby Steve Dikto, Gene Colan and so on that collaborated with him bringing us the  classic  Marvel universe as we know nowadays.

FR : C’est assez marrant car j’avais cette réfléxion avec mon épouse récemment, après avoir vu son caméo dans Captain America 3 : Civil War , Stan Lee est toujours la , il est une des grande figures du monde des comics et un des représentants , une icone du monde Marvel. A 93 ans il est toujours parmi nous et je lui souhaite de rester le plus longtemps possible, mais j’imagine très bien que le jour ou il nous quittera il aura droit à toute une série d’hommage de par l’empreinte qu’il va laisser dans l’industrie des comics et des super héros. Même s’il y a pu avoir à une époque des controverses sur son implication réel des héros de l’unviers marvel , je pense qu’il est à la base de leur créations et ces dernières années il a mis de lui même en avant l’ensemble des artistes/ dessinateurs avec qui il a pu collaborer pour créer cet univers classique de Marvel Comics que ce soit le grand Jack Kirby , Steve Dikto, Gene Colan, John Romita Sr, ou bien d’autres , il est à l’origine des idées  des personnages qui aujourd’hui font remplir les salles de cinéma des héros Marvel. Il a donc tout à fait le droit de lever le pied et d’en profiter un peu !

20160519 – Comics News : Geoff Johns Wants DC to Include More ‘Hope & Optimism’ | Comic Book Resources

Geoff Johns Wants DC to Include More ‘Hope & Optimism’ – Though he wouldn’t confirm reports that he is now in charge of DC Films, the DC Entertainment CCO was clear that the brand needs hope and optimism.

« There’s a lot of emotional underpinning of the characters and the stories, » he shared. « It’s not that people take it for granted. They’re just not as aware of it. But when it’s not there, you really feel that emptiness.”

« I think people make a mistake when they say, ‘Superman’s not relatable because he’s so powerful, » he added. « I’m like, ‘Are you kidding me? He’s a farmboy from Kansas who moves to the city and just wants to do the best he can with what he’s got.’ That’s the most relatable character in the world. »

The reported creative shuffle at DC Films comes after the lukewarm reception of « Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, » which may have resulted in the appointing of Ben Affleck as a producer on « Justice League » and the firing of director Seth Grahame-Smith from « The Flash » film. Additionally, some reshoots were done on « Suicide Squad » to, it’s said, « smooth out the third act. »

« Suicide Squad, » the next DC Films movie, hits theaters on August 5.

20160517 – ‘Rogue One: A Star Wars Story’ Visual Guide Reveals Names, New Characters | Spinoff Online | TV & Film News Daily

A few CG aliens will join Jyn Erso’s team of Rebel soldiers in the upcoming anthology film.

We now know the names of the Rebel officers responsible for stealing the Death Star plans. Thanks to early pages from “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story’s” visual story guide, posted by edelweiss, the film’s cast has been revealed — along with a few new characters as well. There’s still a slight possibility that this information isn’t totally accurate as the pages themselves aren’t the final versions, but we’ll post a spoiler warning just in case.

As revealed in the “Rogue One” trailer, Felicity Jones is playing Jyn Erso (“a highly skilled soldier and warrior”). Joining her are:

– Captain Cassian Andor (Diego Luna), an officer in the Rebel Alliance
– Baze (Jiang Wen), a freelance assassin
– Bodhi (Riz Ahmed), a rebel soldier
– Pao, a “fierce warrior” alien that’s a CG character
– Chirrut (Donnie Yen), a spiritual warrior
– Bistan, another “fierce warrior” CG alien
– K-250 (Alan Tudyk), a CG Imperial Enforcer Droid that’s defected to the Rebellion
– Director Krennec (Ben Mendelsohn), an Imperial military director

It’s worth pointing out that a lot of the character description text is either vague or placeholder text from previous “Star Wars” companion books; the text accompanying the Imperial officers’ page, for instance, looks like it was pulled from a “The Force Awakens’” costume guide. Similarly, much of the descriptive text for the Rebel team is a variation on the same information. Each characters’ name and role, though, is unique.

The visual story guide arrives in stores on January 24, 2017; “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” debuts in theaters on December 16.
