New ‘Joker’ Comic Based On Heath Ledgers Joker

News taken from MTV’s Splashpage, this comic will be on shelves by October 29th.

The story — narrated through the voice of one of the Joker’s recently-hired goons — follows the just-released-from-Arkham Asylum villain as he seeks to reclaim his rightful spot at the top of Gotham criminal hierarchy by any means necessary. In order to get to that spot again, he’ll have to face the rest of Gotham’s top dogs — including Two-Face, The Riddler, Killer Croc and the Penguin (who shows up in the preview pages below).

This is definately going to be one to buy!

Batman 3 Rumors Laid To Rest

That’s right folks, Batman screenwriter David Goyer himself had 2 things to say; 1) Its ALL B.S. and 2) ALL OF IT! So there you have it, Batman will NOT start filming in early 2009, NO word of any villains yet, this means NO Johnny Depp as Riddler OR Phillip Seymour Hoffman as Penguin (yet), DEFINATELY NO CHER AS CATWOMAN and also NO CONFIRMATION on Nolan signing on to do the third film.

But there’s still gonna be loads of rumors flying around so I’m taking it upon myself to start another one…<clearing throat>…ready? Ok, George Clooney wants to come back and not only be Batman again but also Alfred, Robin and Batgirl…you heard it here first.

DCUC Wave 5…Wal-mart Exclusives?

This only sucks for us english folks as this means we can only get these through e-bay. This series includes: Amazo, The Atom, The Riddler (i need it!), Eradicator and Black Lightning. I cant find any news on who the collect a figure for this series is. These will be released in October/November time.

    

Will Batman 3 happen?

Will it happen? Should it happen? Can they top The Dark Knight? I think there’s no harm in giving it a try and Michael Caine thinks the same way. In a recent interview he asked how Heath Ledger can be topped and the reply was: ‘I’ll tell you how you top Heath — Johnny Depp as The Riddler and Philip Seymour Hoffman as The Penguin.’

This came from a Warner Brothers Executive so it has to mean something.  What do i think of all this? Johnny Deep as Ridder and Philip Seymour Hoffman as penguin…get ready for a better Batman film! I love the idea of A List celebrities doing all the superhero films now, it gives a lot of credit to the comic world and i personally think they make the best films…thats my opinion though, don’t question it.
