Ben Affleck is in talks to co-write & possibly direct a stand alone Batman film. The catch? He'll be writing it with Geoff Johns. 😳😰😁😢😭 get ready for a Batman with more nods to the 80s than you care for

Powers is renewed a for a new season

So far not a lot of comic related news

I need to look at summaries for each of those, but so far the 12 Vertigo titles has been the most enjoyable news yet.

EDIT: Or I'll have to wait for solicits or another news piece on it. The CBR piece just had the release dates, covers, and creators. No plot summaries.

The entire creative team from THE MASSIVE is returning to do a smaller series called NINTH WAVE, which I'm assuming is set before the crash.

A non-Carey Lucifer book... that's like a non-Gaiman Sandman.
