Steve McNiven’s Official Poster for NYCC.
The annual New York Comic Con is now less than 22 days away, and I will be there live and in person at the Javits Center for the entire convention weekend. I will be journaling my adventures for you here on Gamenomics & Comicology, but it’s already the perfect time to start following what has become one of the world’s biggest comic conventions. Yesterday afternoon, NYCC unveiled its full panel schedule. In anticipation, let’s take a look at some of the awesome main attractions that have been announced.
Meet Earth’s new Green Lantern, Simon Baz

The cover of Green Lantern #0 from DC Comics
As part of DC Comics’ much-publicized “Zero Month,” the publisher has recently released Green Lantern #0. The comic’s scribe, Geoff Johns, has been interviewed in numerous news outlets because this “zero issue” happens to introduce readers to an all new Green Lantern: an Arab-American from Dearborn, Michigan named Simon Baz. Thus far, Baz looks to be a worthy addition to the DC Universe.
The Man of Steel trailers are here!
Posted: July 23, 2012 by Joel Kost in Comicology - Comic Books, DC Comics, Movies & TelevisionTags: Clark Kent, DC, Superman, Zack Snyder
Shown at the San Diego Comic-Con, 2013’s Man of Steel trailers are now available for your viewing pleasure! Both trailers show the same thing, but the first is voiced by Kevin Costner (who plays Jonathan Kent) and the second is voiced by Russell Crowe (who plays Superman’s biological father, Jor-El). Based on both previews, it seems that this Superman film will focus heavily on who Clark is as an individual, as Costner says, “One day you’re gonna have to make a choice. You have to decide what kind of man you want to grow up to be. Who that man is, good character of bad, he is going to change the world.”
I’m looking forward to this new direction that director Zack Snyder is taking to the Superman film franchise. Making a movie about a super hero who can do anything is no easy task; it doesn’t leave room for many surprises. Focusing on what Superman stands for, rather than what he can do, will be a nice change of pace, and I truly hope that Snyder can deliver the experience that all fans of the man of steel have been dying for.
Teen Titans is Back!

“When there’s trouble you know who to call…Teen Titans!” That was until 2006, when the popular kids television show was canceled.
But wait! The Titans returned in chibi form several months ago! They only existed as a small part of the DC Nation shorts, but fans were encouraged by this sudden revival that included all of the original voice actors. Maybe they’d revive the entire series?!
Well, turns out that is actually going to happen.
In 2013, new TV show Teen Titans Go! will debut as a part of the DC Nation block with all of the original voice actors.

DC Enters ‘Third Wave’ of New 52 Comics

A the start of the blog, I posted about What is the ‘DC New 52’?. A Third Wave of DC New 52 comics was just announced, so I thought it would be good to give an overall listing of each Wave of comics, as well as all of the DC series that are being cut. To reiterate, DC will be keeping its comic reboot to 52 individual series. DC is cancelling and replacing the series that are not selling well, which is why the new replacements are coming in ‘waves’.

You will probably hear Jon and I mention ‘The New 52‘ and many of our reviews/discussions will be talking about New 52 series. I figured it would be a good idea to brief you on what the New 52 actually is.
