Oh, it's Tony hosting this week. For a moment, I thought she did something drastic with her hair.

I'm not watching any more IRON MAN 3 or MAN OF STEEL trailers. Trailers spoil way too much as release dates get closer.

I don't think Marvel is getting their money's worth from Madhouse on those anime. From the clips I've seen. The quality looks closer to what they were doing 10 years ago.

A new STAR WARS movie "every year"? Oh, lord. I'm worried now.

Batarang injuries isn't as interesting as would Wayne Enterprise be liable for damage to public property that involves Batman chasing someone down? That could wind up being more expensive. Why should public taxes be spent on damage he causes while in pursuit of criminals?

It's going to have to be a pretty incredible guest to fill in for Sara, but I still look for it. Hope she enjoys Europe.

It'll alternate between primary and solo films each summer.

Doomsday and Supes have grown on me a good deal, Bane and Deathstroke are tied for 3rd.

@k4tzm4n: I haven't tried to learn to play as Supes yet, but I would like too.

Bane has some awesome grabs and combos, and his super has to be my favorite.

Superman is really easy to use and highly effective. Simple and efficient combos in close range, variety of distance attacks (has three heat vision moves).

He sure does, but I find Doomsday to be more practical. Better variety of moves that are easier to pull off, and IMHO, a better power.

That RIPD movie looks terrible in my opinion but Jeff Bridges with a revolver is awesome anytime anywhere.

Why haven't you guys posted anything on the newly leaked "Batman: Arkham Origins"? It's in Game Informer, and they have leaked quite a few things about it. I'm not getting my hopes up for it, but it is somewhat comic related and I figured most people on the site would like to hear about it if they haven't already... Also, they are releasing news on the "Deadpool" game all the time and I haven't seen much, again, just something I figured some might want to hear about, since most people don't really search for the news on stuff, they just wait for it to come to them.

Because none of us saw it and no one from the community brought it to our attention (which we more than welcome, of course). The only Origins update I saw was the promo poster, and I'd rather wait for something bigger before reaching out to Tony to see if I can post it.

As for Deadpool, all I saw earlier was the pre-order bonuses, and an extra two challenge maps/wallpapers/etc really didn't seem pressing, especially weighed next to the other stuff we're constantly writing.

Long story short, I didn't see anything "big" from either game this week (again, all I saw from Origin was a standee), thus why I never bugged Tony to let me write it. But if you see something, we're more than happy to hear from you about it via Twitter or our CV walls.

@t84nightfall: Also, we deal more with actual released info. I did post the first announcement and image from Game Informer. You'll notice we covered Injustice quite a bit. They officially released a lot of information directly to us. You also have to consider it's mainly me and Gregg posting news. AND there's the fact that we are not a video game site. Obviously we will cover comic book video games but it's not and can't be our main focus. But as more information is released, we will indeed be covering it when we can.

Ironman three starts showing here in Japan next Friday... excited for that.

New Superman trailer to celebrate the 75th anniversary. Sadly, that won't start here until August.

No Superman's 75th anniversary coverage? For shame! :P I stopped watching Heroes after Season 3. And where's Pinchuk on the Vine? He hasn't written an article in years!

Please, DC, just give this man his Lois Lane fix.

And first I heard DDP will be at C2E2, and now Tony? I really should get my ticket and make the 15 minute drive.

@lvenger: I don't know how it slipped my mind. I knew it was coming. Would've been nice if a certain publisher reminded us. Tom doesn't write for CV anymore. He's focused his other ventures but we do still talk. I saw him a bit at WonderCon.
