Warner Bros. Pictures has announced their next DC Comics related film on the slate, and it just happens to be Shazam. This will NOT be the previously announced Black Adam film, and at this time, there is no involvement of Dwayne Johnson with the Shazam picture.  In fact, the Black Adam project will be a spinoff of this newly […]

ATTENTION IN THE REALM, HBO’s Game Of Thrones returns tonight for the premiere of long awaited and anticipated Season 7. So many things could happen this season; so many things could happen TONIGHT, during the return to Westeros.

It is with a heavy heart we report on the passing of Joan Lee, the exceptional woman who had been married to comics legend Stan Lee for almost 70 years.  Joan was 93 years young, and still had that bright spark that caught Stan’s eye.  He’d routinely *still* introduce her at events as his “trophy wife” with […]

Even as events continue to try to dial in better dates for their respective regions, the convention calendar continues to get more crowded by the day.
