Stan Lee x Todd McFarlane X Yoshiki With 'Blood Red Dragon'
Posted 6/29/11 10:05 am EST by Charles Webb in Announcements, Comic Book Conventions, Comic Books, San Diego Comic-Con
An American comic legend, a big-time independent Canadian comic creator, and a Japanese musician/humanitarian team up.
Three very distinctive creators -- Stan Lee, Todd McFarlane, and Japanese music star Yoshiki -- are working on what sounds like an interesting (but still a little hazy) comic project that they'll be announcing officially during a panel at SDCC. Titled Blood Red Dragon, with writing by Jonathan Goff (Adventures of Spawn), the book is a supernatural fantasy with a lead character based on Yoshiki, a musician and record producer, formerly of the group X Japan known for his humanitarian work. According the press release, the book "features a surprise and first-of-its-kind publishing innovation that combines the unique skills of [the] three world-renowned artists." To me, this translates as some kind of transmedia tie-in, possibly with an album linked to the book from Yoshiki.

'Ghostbusters' Goes Monthly at IDW

A Google search for the cartoon made me realize that J. Michael Straczynski created my second favorite villain from the series.
Samhain, if you're asking. With the Boogeyman as the distant first choice.
Anyway, after a bunch of minis culminating in the success of the Infestation crossover, Ray, Winston, Ray, and Egon are getting a regular gig starting in September under Infestation writer Erik Burham, with interiors by Dan Schoening and covers by Nick Runge.

FUNimation Brings Benny Chan's 'City Under Siege' To the U.S.
Posted 6/23/11 11:23 am EST by Charles Webb in Announcements, Movies
It's mutant circus performers gone wild as FUNimation brings Benny Chan's sci-fi action movie City Under Siege to DVD and Blu Ray later this year. The film stars Hong Kong stars Aaron Kwok (The Storm Riders, the fairly badass Throw Down), Jacky Wu (Kung Fu Dunk, Invisible Target), and Shu Qi (Gorgeous, Three Times), and is written by Kan-Cheung Tsang. The movie appears to be a mix of wirework martial arts given the big-budget CG superhero treatment courtesy of Chan, who's directed Gen X Cops, New Police Story, and Who Am I. Read More...
