Runaways from Marvel coming to TV?

Runaways, the Brian K. Vaughn Marvel Mutant series, was a fan favorite for BKV before he was BKV. At one point it was being looked at for a film. That went away. It appears Marvel is looking at it for a TV show. (BKV did state he had big news for Image Expo in January, but I doubt he would announce a Marvel tv show here.)

Larry's Comics Pick of the week for delivery 11/5/14

IMG_0083
Speculation: investment involving high risk but also the possibility of high
profits.
I have always believed that the icing on the cake of comics is the fact that sometimes they are worth money. They’re entertaining and potentially valuable. I’m a reader first, but have always played the market a bit.
I love investing in modern comics, It’s an endeavor I began in 1988 & enjoyed incredible success along with horrific losses. It’s an exciting emotional roller coaster that starts a new ride every Wednesday. It’s one of my favorite things in this world.
Here are my speculator-y picks of the week: Continue reading “Larry's Comics Pick of the week for delivery 11/5/14”

Jeremy Dale creator of Skyward passed away

Jeremy Dale, creator of the Action Labs Comic Skyward has passed away. This book is a fantastic read and had great spec on it when it first came out. I spoke to Jeremy numerous times at conventions (just this year he signed the Baltimore Comic Con Yearbook for me (it was a Grendel Themed book for which he provided a piece). Jeremy was a very nice guy and am sad to hear of his passing. Continue reading “Jeremy Dale creator of Skyward passed away”

SOLD OUT New #1 Comics for October 29 2014

Article by comic book historian Terry Hoknes of www.HoknesComics.com – hoknes@hotmail.com
This article is immensely useful in determining what retailers have under ordered and what is going to sell out fast.
This column is here to help promote every new comic book series debuting this week.
Pictured are the 3 new series that are selling out the fastest at Diamond !
This weekly article shows how popular the titles are and how close they are to selling out at Diamond.
This will give retailers and collectors a heads up with a reminder of books you want to make sure you get immediately!!
Sometimes books don’t sell out immediately so its worth taking a look back at series that came out in the past few months !
Comics can sell out very quickly so some titles on this list will be more valuable instantly the day of release !
Keep in mind that with 1500 comic stores if even just 20% of stores re-ordered just 1 copy each that would be 300 more copies sold instantly so a book can easily sell out within minutes if the book gets some buzz and/or good response from readers!
So many comics on the list that still have copies left are going to eventually all sell out.
Diamond data of copies still available listed below compiled the week BEFORE release date! Continue reading “SOLD OUT New #1 Comics for October 29 2014”

Gambit Movie in the works

Hope everyone had a good Halloween. I am finally rested from taking my kids trick-or-treating and dressing up as a spooky scarecrow and sitting in the graveyard scene in my front yard and scaring the older kids. But I digress, Marvel is back with more movie news. Deadline is reporting that Fox is set to start writing a Gambit movie. Continue reading “Gambit Movie in the works”

Ales Kot Zero Makes the Blood List

From the Wrap.

Genre guru Kailey Marsh has unveiled the 2014 Blood List, which names the 13 most liked, unproduced dark genre scripts of the year every Halloween, as voted on by Hollywood executives.

Number 2 on the Pilot list is Ales Kot’s Zero. We had mentioned previously that Ales Kot was talking about the book being shopped around for a TV show.
Zero from Image Comics can still be had very cheaply, under $2 in some cases. Besides the TV spec, it is a good read.
Ironically, the book that beat it out is called Monster which is described as “What if a killer like Michael Myers from “Halloween” had been shot, fell into a coma, and survived? He wakes up with no memory, is incarcerated in a mental institution, and twelve years later, is pronounced cured and released back into the community that hates and vilifies him.” Which sounds exactly like Bedlam.

Avengers VS. X-Men coming in 2015

Marvel keeps firing these images off of different event storylines with no information on what they are. I figured out the other day that these could be the “worlds” characters are going to be pulled from for the upcoming Secret War (and now bleeding cool is buying into that theory too). Here is Marvel’s latest teaser. Continue reading “Avengers VS. X-Men coming in 2015”
