Basement X

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

DC announced 12 new titles for Vertigo coming out towards the end of the year:

OCTOBER
THE TWILIGHT CHILDREN #1 (Gilbert Hernandez, Darwyn Cooke)
SURVIVORS’ CLUB #1 (Lauren Beukes, Dale Halvorsen, Ryan Kelly)
CLEAN ROOM #1 (Gail Simone, Jon Davis-Hunt)
ART OPS #1 (Shaun Simon, Michael Allred)

NOVEMBER
UNFOLLOW #1 (Rob Williams, Mike Dowling)
SLASH & BURN #1 (Si Spencer, Max Dunbar, Ande Parks)
RED THORN #1 (David Baillie, Meghan Hetrick)
JACKED #1 (Eric Kripke, John Higgins)

DECEMBER
SHERIFF OF BAGHDAD #1 (Tom King, Mitch Gerads)
NEW ROMANCER #1 (Peter Milligan, Brett Parson)
LUCIFER #1 (Holly Black, Lee Garbett)
LAST GANG IN TOWN #1 (Simon Oliver, Rufus Dayglo)

Sadly it's not Mike Carey on Lucifer, so I'm already out.

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.

Darwyn Cooke!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also, Batman Eternal is coming back for a second season focused on Robin.

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.
