You know, very few cartoons that we loved as kids hold up when we try to watch them as adults. Sure, there’s still charm to shows like G.I. Joe and Transformers, but even then, the animation is so dated, you feel a little ashamed for liking them in the first place. Especially when it comes […]
In our Funnybooks podcast, we focus on current events, and usually large events. Most times, the conversations are constrained so that we can fit everything into an hour or so, but here at Funnybooks After Hours the discussion continues to topics not covered, greater questions of events in comic past or whatever else strikes our […]
I know that, technically, Superman isn’t really American. But, seriously, what’s more American than the concept of Superman? After all, we’re talking about what’s been referred to by creators as “the ultimate immigrant story.” An immigrant child brought to America, where he is raised as an American, and ultimately ends up fighting for…the American Way.

You know…I love the character of the Green Hornet, I love the concept of the Green Hornet, and I absolutely love the TV series that starred Bruce Lee as Kato. Unfortunately, I’m not entirely sure what the hell the folks at Universal have been trying to do with the property. First they hired Kevin Smith […]

Source: Superhero Hype! I hesitated to post anything about this because, really…it’s just the friggin’ Green Lantern symbol. It really isn’t all that special, in the grand scheme of things. I’m excited that we’re a year away from a GL movie, and I really can’t wait to see it. What made me decide to post […]
Hot on the heels of the Captain America Costume Leak from yesterday the concept art for Thor has now been released as well. We have already seen the production still to the left so there is really nothing new here other than a glimpse at Mjolnir. What is interesting is comparing the concept art to […]
It seems that designs for the costume to be using in the new Captain America movie have begun leaking online. A special thanks to my friend Sari for pointing this out to me. This design has been confirmed by numerous sources, but like all internet rumors should be taken with a grain of salt. Time […]
Source: AICN Okay, so apparently one superhero show isn’t enough to fill the void left by Heroes being canceled (not that any of us watched it anymore anyway). In addition to The Cape (check out the trailer for that one here), ABC is throwing their hat in the ring with No Ordinary Family, which kind […]
