OMG: Super Best Friends Forever Exclusive Merchandise At SDCC This Year

by Jill Pantozzi | 12:10 pm, May 20th, 2013

If you love the Lauren Faust created DC Nation short, Super Best Friends Forever, you’re in luck. Although we won’t be seeing any more animated shorts (at least anytime soon), DC has made the wise decision to create a San Diego Comic-Con exclusive statue set. USA Today has the rest of the DC con exclusives but we have tunnel vision right now. Take our money. Take it now. The three together will run $49.95 and of course, you’ll have to physically be at SDCC or know someone going to get one. Or risk scary Ebay prices after the fact.

Things We Saw Today: Tiny Chocolate Benedict Cumberbatch’s Backside

by Susana Polo | 4:53 pm, April 29th, 2013

Rebecca told me it was okay to make that the title of this post, so blame her. This was apparently left in the hotel room of Simon Pegg by the hotel’s services, and yes, it is entirely chocolate. (That’s Nerdalicious!)

Sounds Like We’re Getting a Peggy Carter Short This Comic Con

by Susana Polo | 11:29 am, April 19th, 2013

There’s been an online campaign for Peggy to be featured. People really liked her. So Marvel have made sure that as part of Comicon there will be a little kind of snapshot as to what Peggy’s actually really capable of, which was finished here and which was great fun. Hopefully, it will lead to other things. — Peggy Carter actress Hayley Atwell to The Age.

Marvel Entertainment has shown an interest in giving short films to secondary characters, and have already dedicated one to a fan favorite. Peggy Carter is a character who has yet to be given a kind of closure by either Captain America: The First Avenger or The Avengers (even considering deleted scenes), so it makes sense that they might give her some in a short. In the Age article the actress also confirms that she’d be totally down to play Lara Croft in a Tomb Raider movie, so that’s awesome.

2013 San Diego Comic-Con Sells Out in 96 Minutes, But Not Without Some Technical Glitches Along the Way

by Rebecca Pahle | 12:55 pm, February 17th, 2013

It was never a question that badges for this year’s San Diego Comic-Con would sell out. The unknown factor was exactly how long it would take. Not long, as it happens: Tickets went on sale this morning at 9AM PST, and by 10:36 they were all gone.

Syfy’s Face Off Pairs DC Comic Artists With Contestants This Season

by Jill Pantozzi | 2:44 pm, January 16th, 2013

Syfy’s Face Off is one of my favorite shows. I’ve always been interested in movie makeup but didn’t have the skill to make it a career plus, the show isn’t overly dramatized like most reality TV these days. They premiered the fourth season last night and while I’ve yet to watch the episode, we’ve just found out some people we’re very familiar with will be making a guest appearance in a few weeks – employees of DC Comics. Find out if your favorite creator will be giving their artistic input to the contestants after the cut.

The Mary Sue’s 10 Most Popular Posts of 2012

by The Mary Sue Staff | 12:33 pm, December 28th, 2012

Yesterday we gave you our most commented on posts of 2012, but most commented on is not the same as most popular. And by popular we mean looked at. The number of time a specific URL was visited. And what holds true on the internet holds true here: people like galleries (as long as they’re not too annoying). So without further ado, here’s the ten most viewed posts we wrote this year. We would have had to go to twelve to reach a post that didn’t have a gallery of some kind in it (although that post would have been the announcement of The Casual Vacany, J.K. Rowling‘s first post-Harry Potter novel).

What A Boob! Comic-Con Fans Think Total Recall Actress Really Has Three Breasts

by Jill Pantozzi | 2:49 pm, July 24th, 2012

One thing on the minds of Total Recall fans when they first heard about the Len Wiseman reboot was, “Is there going to be a three-breasted woman?” I’ll admit, I was curious myself as to whether or not they would include that unusual detail from the original but we found out the answer was yes. Then the marketing geniuses behind the Colin Farrell-starring feature decided to bring her to Comic-Con International in San Diego and actress Kaitlyn Leeb got more than she bargained for. Fans thought her tripple-breasted prosthetic was real. Picture of Ms. Leeb after the jump.

The Avengers To Team Up With Phineas and Ferb

by Kellie Foxx-Gonzalez | 2:01 pm, July 24th, 2012

After fighting off hordes of Chitauri and nearly destroying the entirety of New York City, you’d think The Avengers might sneak in a little downtime notwithstanding their post-battle shawarma run.  But as you’d probably guess, Disney wouldn’t dream of temporarily putting this $1 billion cash cow out to pasture — so, in a new crossover announced at Comic-Con, our favorite Marvel heroes will come swinging, smashing, and hammer-flying into the universe of Phineas and Ferb in the summer of 2013.
