Comic Con

So there I was at the 2008 Heroes Comic Con Panel in San Diego, running off stage after giving away a few HEROES dvds and explaining away the fact that Jeph Loeb wasn’t on stage yet.  Needless to say, the fans were in an uproar of glee and excitement when he arrived onstage, and even [...]

During our crazy trip at Comic Con, we attended the DEXTER panel and learned quite a few things about the coming season. - There is going to be a huge shocking reveal in the first episode. Dexter sets something in motion that will change his life forever. - Dexter will become more of his own man this [...]

Haven't been home lately to update. No, this blog has not suffered the same fate as 90% of new blogs and died a fast death and no, I don't plan on letting that happen. Just got back from a long week of gambling at Mohegan Sun and then Camping upstate (didn't win any money and did get bitten by bugs, in case you were wondering) and I was greeted with tons of interesting and exciting news and upda

Creative Director Jens Andersen shares a preview of DC Universe Online out at Comic Con earlier today. This is the same walkthrough of SOE’s MMO that you would get if you attended the event. Here are the latest screenshots: DC Universe Online: Comic Con preview

JoBlo.com has a breakdown of the teaser trailer for X-Men Origins: Wolverine that was shown at Comic Con. It starts off with Logan and Victor Creed in a POW camp. Enter a young William Stryker (Danny Huston) who asks how it was that they were both set to be killed by firing squad yet they're both still alive. "How'd that feel?," he asks. "It tickled," says Logan. From t

Movie geeks and fans who had the chance to go to Comic Con today got a surprise at the end of 20th Century Fox’s presentation, Hugh Jackman! Apparently he had just finished filming and flew over from Australia to show a trailer. It was not complete and the scenes needed more work in post-production, however [...]

This is for all you SUPERNATURAL fans who will be at Comic Con next week. We have been informed by the nice people at Warner Bros that there is a scheduling change. The autograph signing will now take place on Saturday, July 26, while the panel will take place on Sunday, July 27. So if you [...]

You ever play that game where you strategically place pants into lines of Star Wars dialogue? Lines like,” I find your lack of pants disturbing” are something that only a true Star Wars fan can know. Anyway, Here’s a picture of Hasbro’s 2008 Star Wars Comic Con Exclusive entitled: Disturbance in the Force (Click the link [...]

NECA recently released their list of San Diego Comic Con Exclusives for 2008 and Gears of War and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle fans rejoiced. For Gears of War NECA’s figure of choice is Carmine. He’s the “innocent kid” team member that gets his head blown off, which is coincidental since he’s the only one with [...]

[An imperial Biker Scout points his Freudian metaphor at my face.] By Quincey Tran I arrive at the Javits Center Saturday morning and I’m immediately greeted by a patrol of Stormtroopers who usher me and other fans into the convention center. We soon find ourselves corralled into a line that snakes through acres of the center’s cavernous [...]

McFarlane Toys has revealed their exclusives for the 2008 San Diego Comic Con and I’ve got them here. Hurray! or something. SPARTAN SOLDIER EVA “HELLSPARTAN” This is the figure that both Halo fans and Spawn geeks are going to need as this version of a Spartan soldier is painted to look like McFarlane’s money making machine.

by Teresa Jusino I was all about keeping it low-key on Sunday. After two straight days of comic-conning, I was looking forward to a leisurely day. I didn't even get to the convention center until my first panel...

by Teresa Jusino Saturday at New York Comic Con means two things. First, it means an increase in the number of young children and teenagers in attendance. As soon as I got out of the subway to walk the five blocks to the convention center, I found myself swallowed up by a gaggle of teenagers. While waiting for the exhibition hall to open, I had a lovely chat with a grandfather taking his 7 year old granddaughter to her first comic con. The grandfather was a huge comic fan who was loyal to Golden Age comics and a bit disappointed by the comic industry's current offerings. The granddaughter's favorite superhero was Spider-Man. I made some recommendations for her of which the grandfather was a bit suspicious, but as she seemed interested in the stories I was telling her (Ultimate Spider-Man,

by Teresa Jusino OK, I'm just going to say it. Screw San Diego. You heard me. Screw San Diego and its "premiere comics and popular arts convention." New York Comic Con might only be three years old, but it's already attracting the likes of Stan Lee, Grant Morrison, Neil Gaiman and Frank Miller. Film and television stars are flocking as well, with Kal Penn and John Cho (Harold and Kumar Go to....well, everywhere), Grace Park (Battlestar Galactica), Seth Green (for both Robot Chicken and his Top Cow comic, Freshmen), Eva Mendes (for The Spirit), and Selma Blair (for Hellboy II). We've got Chris Carter (creator of The X-Files) and Guillermo del Toro (Pan's Labyrinth and Hellboy II). More importantly, New York Comic Con takes place in the city that inspired, and continues to inspire, comic bo

So, first things first. This poster for Hellboy, drawn by the legendary Drew Struzan, was made exclusively for the New York Comic Con. So it’s a “for the geeks only” kind of thing, and the final poster is probably going to be very different. Which is too bad, because this is pretty great and I [...]

Hey Comic Lovers O’ Doom, We’re on our way over to the New York Comic Con now. If you love comics, and you’re not tied to a desk, chillin’ with the Pope, or living under a rock, this is where you should be this weekend too. It’s gonna be a geek-filled blast!

Thanks to a nifty and well versed press release, today we learn that this year's Comic Con (which will go down April 18th through the 20th) will get an additional injection of video game content with Gears of War 2 taking center stage.Scheduled to take the floor at this month's New York Comic Con, Epic's Michael Capps and GoW2 script writer Joshua Ortega will talk about Gears' origin, its success and give attendees a "glimpse into this year's upcoming Gears of War 2". Whether or not that means actual in-game GoW2 footage or just talking bits, we aren't sure. But our fingers are crossed in hopes that we get a GoW2 video tease come April 18th. We're sure Capps won't let us down.

Our seventh and final giveaway this week is from HEROES. We have one Heroes Box for Season 1 from Comic Con 2007 to give away (Note that this is just a box, it doesn’t include DVDs). Want to win one? It’s easy, all you have to do is email us at contest@daemonstv.com and tell us you are [...]

Tras 70 años de publicación de las novelas de Agatha Christie, sus personajes nos sorprenden con su aparición en un nuevo medio tras pasar por el cine y la televisión siendo encarnados por ejemplo por Peter Ustinov. Hace 30 años que nos dejó Agatha Christie pero tuvo una prolífica carrera con casi un centenar de novelas, muchos relatos y obras de teatro, la celebre autora de misterio en ventas solo se ve ensombrecida por la Biblia y Shakespeare.La salida está prevista para Septiembre en un evento anual dedicado a la escritora, con la primera de las novelas gráficas dibujada por Bruno Lachard, y está previsto que los títulos vayan incrementando en los próximos meses con títulos como The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, The Mystery of the Blue Train, Death on the Nile, The Murder on the Links, Murder on the Orient Express, The Secret of Chimneys. Pero al parecer el plan es ambicioso y los comics saldrán este mes que viene, en un número de 12 títulos de 83, y los 71 restantes lo h

It’s finally here! The video I took from the JERICHO Panel at Comic Con 2007. I hope you enjoy it! I cannot wait for Jericho to return. If you want more information about our Comic Con 2007 trip, listen to our podcast. (I apologize for some of the shakiness but I was filming with my camera (not my video camera) and since it’s so light, it was hard to keep it steady.)

It’s finally here! The very first episode of Daemon’s TV Podcast. Since we had just gotten back from Comic Con 2007, my friend Eric and I decided to talk about our experience there. Episode #1: Comic Con 2007: Includes an overview of each panel attended at Comic Con 2007, including Lost, Bionic Woman, Heroes, Battlestar Galactica, The 4400, and Jericho. We also give some tips for people who plan to attend next year based on our experience. You can listen to the podcast here: Daemon’s TV #1: Comic Con 2007 Or subscribe to one of these services: (should work in the next few hours, it was just added to iTunes) We hope you enjoy it and feel free to e-mail us with any comments or suggestions at info@daemonstv.com.

Click on the image for a bigger version. The BIONIC WOMAN Panel at Comic Con, was the first one on Saturday morning. The actual panel started at 10am. We go in line at 7am and there was already about 400 people before us. Most people at this point came early in order to get good seats for the Heroes panel which took place in the same room a few hours later at 12:45pm (we actually talk about this in the first episode of our podcast, yes we’ve finally done one which I will be posting at the latest tomorrow). I will also be posting an audio of the panel, sorry no video for this one. Before the panel started, we got to watch the pilot of Bionic Woman. Although this was not the final version of the pilot (they changed the actress who played the sister originally, but I guess they hadn’t shot the new scenes yet), I thought it was a really cool pilot. It definitely makes me want to tune in. One of the few new shows I am actually excited about (the other ones include Pushing Dai

I’ve been getting some requests for videos and audios from the panels at Comic Con 2007, and although I don’t really have any videos from panels, except for The 4400 and Jericho (which I will be posting soon), I do have audios from the panels I attended. I will be adding all of them as I go along. First up, the Lost Panel, which also happens to be the first one I attended. Enjoy! powered by ODEO

For those who haven’t seen it yet, here is the short video of part of the panel from THE 4400 at Comic Con. I apologize for some of the shakiness. I was actually filming with my camera (not video camera) and since it’s so light, it was really hard to keep it steady. I did the best I could . Don’t forget to check out my full review of The 4400 panel.

I found this video of the KYLE XY Comic Con 2007 panel where Matt Dallas shows his belly button to the crowd who starts screaming even louder. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to go to the panel due to the fact that it was during the Heroes Panel (and I had such good seats there was no way I was gonna give them up). Remember to take a look at my Kyle XY Contest in order to win the Kyle XY Comic that was given out at Comic Con 2007.

A video clip is now online showing Jon Favreau, Robert Downey Jr and Stan Winston unveiling the Iron Man Mark 1 armour on the show floor. You would not believe the amount of excitement that buzzed around Comic Con when the armour was unveiled. The Armour looks fierce and I can not wait for the movie! Check out the video below, the guys look like they had such a laugh - and Robert Downey Jr is looking hot! Written by Lucy for Product ReviewsIn Sections: News, Film News

Click on the image for a bigger version. Here it is, my long awaited recap of THE 4400 Panel at Comic Con 2007. I actually got there pretty early and got to be close to the stage. It’s just nice to be able to actually see everything that is going on with the panel. Moving on to the panel: First, the moderator introduced the panel: Craig Sweeny (Writer and Producer) Jeffrey Combs (Kevin Burkhoff) Jenni Baird (Meghan Doyle) Ira Behr (Executive Producer) Conchita Campbell (Maia Rutledge) Megalyn Echikunwoke (Isabelle Tyler) First they started talking about Promicin and the big campaign that came out of it with the famous tagline “Would you take the shot?” The moderator asks Jeffrey Combs if he would take the shot, he says “I already did.” During this season his character, Kevin, is working on improving the odds of taking the promicin shot. They actually showed a clip about it, but more about that later. Jenni Baird asks the audience who would take the sh

Here is the video that was shown during the LOST Panel at Comic Con. It is the Orchid Orientation film. To be honest, I have never been really excited for the orientation films. I just don’t feel they explain that much. So here is one more to add to the number of questions we have about Lost. Oh and February seems so far.

As promised, here is the first contest to win some Comic Con Swag. The prize is a KYLE XY Comic Book that was handed out at Comic Con 2007. Six winners will be picked at random. All you need to do is just answer the question below. Question: Who is the actor that portrays Kyle in “Kyle XY”? To enter the contest click here or email your answer at info[at]daemonstv[dot]com. Please put “Kyle XY Contest” as the subject. More info: The contest is open from July 31st to August 10th. Winners will be picked on August 12th. Only one entry per person. Make sure you provide the email with which to get in touch with you. Only residents of the United States can apply.

So I told you guys that I would have a surprise for you. Well here it is. As you know, another great thing about going to Comic Con apart from the panels, is the free Swag you get (I got my share of it as you can see on the picture above). Most of the Swag are Comic Con Exclusive, so you wouldn’t be able to get it anywhere else, except on Daemon’s TV! Because I love my readers, I decided to snatch extra Swag to give out to you guys who were not able to go to Comic Con this year. I will be giving away Comic Con Swag during the next few months through different Contests. So keep an eye out for them. The first one will be posted today or tomorrow and is related to a special guy named Kyle…

Here are some pictures I was able to take at the HEROES Comic Con 2007 Panel. I was lucky enough to have a seat in the fourth row on the right, so I was pretty close to the stage. I will have more info about the panel soon. For now enjoy some pictures from the Panel. More Pictures after the jump. (more…)

The news that Indiana Jones toys were coming out was first met with awe, then shock, then tears of joy, then a little bit of a moment where there was some sort of strange, unexplainable itch behind the eye, then utter bliss. Let me tell you, seeing the figures at Comic-Con was awesome and made me wish all the more that I could claim the new figures as my own. One of the coolest things in the Hasbro booth was a replica of the Ark of the Covenant, and man was it sweet looking: Sadly, many nerds either burst into flame or melted when their curiosity got the best of them.

After two days of relative calm on Friday and Saturday, the Comic Con convention in San Diego exploded in violence on Sunday after what seemed a personal dispute spilled over into the crowd. Surveillance cameras captured the flash point: A man dressed in a Batman costume (Dark Knight #3 sans-cape, but with full utility belt) invited a young Jubilee-clad girl to his "batcave." The proposition didn't sit well her boyfriend who arrived at the convention as a semi-transformed Bruce Banner, and a scuffle ensued. The audible portion of the tape is presented below: "What do you want, DC punk," the boyfriend was overheard saying. "Why don't you go and fight for Truth and Justice, boy scout." "That's Superman, dickweed. Batman is DARK! He's not for little kids anymore. Even Superman, with the release of Birthright is way deeper. Superman must battle himself and he advocates veganism." Besides, in your semi-transformed state, you can do me no harm. "I'm getting angrier." Apparently, t

El carácter friki de la Comic Con ha hecho que poco a poco el mundo del cine, las series y los videojuegos haya utilizado la convención de San Diego para anunciar novedades y crear expectación. Este año, los creadores de series de TV como Lost, Heroes, The 4400 o The Sarah Connor Chronicles han aprovechado para ponernos los dientes largos a todos sus seguidores. Os resumo brevemente las novedades reveladas para cada una después del salto y ojo: ¡hay spoilers! (more…) Compártelo

Here are all the pictures on our Flickr account right now. I will be adding more during the week. I have hundreds of pictures and obviously can’t put all of them on the site, but I still wanted to share them with you. Enjoy!

Wow, this trip was exhausting, but really great. During my last day, I was able to attend THE 4400 panel and JERICHO panel. Both of them were fun and since they were in a smaller room, I was really close to the stage, AND I even got some footage from both panel, so keep your eye out for it. Starting tomorrow I will be doing big recaps of every panel I attended which include: Lost (already did that one, maybe I’ll add some pictures), Reaper, Bionic Woman, Heroes, Battlestar Galactica, The 4400, and Jericho. More pictures too. Since each panel was about an hour long, it might take some time to put everything together so bear with me and if there are any specific panel you would like me to talk about first, feel free to let me know. For now, enjoy some more pictures in the upcoming post. Oh and yeah, in the coming week I will have a surprise for you guys so stay tuned.

Tomorrow is the last day of Comic Con. I’m once again going to be attending panels. To follow me on my last day, join me on Twitter and for pictures taken at the Comic Con, don’t forget to visit our Flickr account. After Comic Con is done, I will be doing full recaps of everything that happened, so stay tuned!

The TV Guide Comic Con 2007 Panel was fun because it brought people from five different shows (The 4400, Bionic Woman, Jericho, Kyle XY, and Heroes) in the same room. Here are some pictures. (more…)

What a day… I am so exhausted. I will feel you guys in on all the information about all the panels I attended, but for now, I thought I would post some pictures from the BIONIC WOMAN Panel. (more…)

Still at Comic Con for the second day. I went to the REAPER panel today, which turned out to be mostly about Kevin Smith,/span>. Fine with me, I love the guy. More updates about that later, when I am able to sit down and write for a second You can always follow live updates on Twitter (I also put the Twitter badge on the sidebar temporarily). To get updates about the picture being put up on our Flickr account, check either the Flickr account or look at the Jaiku widget on the sidebar (just below Twitter). You should be all set to follow my exciting adventures at the Comic Con 2007. Again, more info on everything as soon as I can, but for now, all the scoops and updates will be through all the things that I mentioned above. Stay tuned!

Se está realizando la Comic Con en USA y Damon Lindelof, Carlton Cuse y Harold Perrineau (Michael) se mostraron y participaron en el panel donde dieron confirmaciones sobre el merchandising, spoilers varios de la serie. Lo que sigue esta lleno de Spoiler sobre la Cuarta Temporada. - El videojuego de Lost se confirmó para cuando regrese LOST a la pantalla, o sea en febrero del 2008. (more…)

IDW vuelve a dar la campanada, se ha hecho con nada menos que con Doctor Who, la editorial lleva un año de anuncios espectacular, y ahora suma a su catalogo la serie de televisión más duradera de la historia de la ciencia ficción. El anuncio ha sido realizado por Gary Russell que está en el guión de la serie y será quien la guionize el comic que estará dibujado por Nick Roche encargado anteriormente de Transformers. IDW además va a reeditar los números de Dave Gibbons realizados a partir de los años 80 en Doctor Who Monthly, que originalmente eran en blanco y negro pero que han sido coloreados usando las nuevas técnicas.Según ha dicho Russell las historias implicaran al Doctor Who y a Martha Jones de modo que se ubicarán más o menos en la mitad de la tercera serie que cuenta con la décima encarnación del Doctor Who, la de David Tennant. Russell editó durante 4 años Doctor Who Magazine antes de ser productor del audio drama hasta el 2006 cuando empezó a trabajar en D

Wow, so the first day of Comic Con is over. I attended the LOST Panel and wished we had gotten more scoop about Season four. I didn’t feel like they gave us that much insight into what we can expect from Season Four, especially with the news about Michael (Harold Perrineau) coming back already announced yesterday at the TCA, there wasn’t much left. I think another part of it is the fact that Lost won’t be returning until February 2008. This means they haven’t started shooting yet, although they have started writing, so there isn’t much to say as of yet. Here are some of the things they did talk about and the videos they showed us: The panel started with a video of a bonus feature from the Season 3 Lost DVD (coming out December 11th). (People screamed a lot as some of our favorite actors appeared on screen…) Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse come on stage. They show us a clip of the Lost video game. I heard someone behind me say that they will bu

Tomorrow Comic Con starts in San Diego. I will be going and updating Twitter throughout the day as much as I can to let you guys know what’s going on. So keep watching that little badge bellow for news from Comic Con! You can also add me as your friend on Twitter to make it easier to follow my adventure. follow daemonstv at http://twitter.com

Being a comic book dork as well as video game geek is a hard thing, thanks to Microsoft, it just keeps getting easier. According to their official site up for the promotion, via the Marketplace you can “…watch the panel discussions, see the footage, and download exclusive themes and trailers, all for a limited time.” Awesome stuff, I am sure they will attempt to bring the focus on game related comic happenings (ie Halo comics, The Darkness, etc). Right now news is already posted that they will offer a DC Comics theme and a 300 theme, with the claim “More themes every day!” Xbox360Fanboy already has the scoop of a 300 themed Elite Xbox exclusive for the convention, with 10 being given away. I await the news of this sort of attention being brought over to the MegaCon next year. For now though, enjoy this news and check the official press release after the break.

Only two days until Comic Con! Can you tell I’m excited?!! Some of my favorite shows will be there, like Lost, Heroes, The 4400, Eureka, Battlestar Galactica, Smallville, Jericho, as well as some new shows like Bionic Woman, Pushing Daisies, Reaper, Chuck, The Sarah Connor Chronicles. While I wish I could attend all the panels, there is no way this is possible, unless I can split myself in two (note to self: start working on the splitting project), but I’ll definitely attend as many as I can. I’ll also update you guys on everything that is going on while I’m there. Probably some of it on Twitter (which I’ll link on the site) so you can follow my every move. Stay tuned!

Dynamite anuncia otra nueva licencia para su colección, otro Western que se va a hacer compañía a su Llanero solitario, se trata de la triología spaghetti western de El Hombre sin Nombre de Sergio Leone con Clint Eastwood como estrella. El personaje apareció en tres películas que en realidad no son una triología pero tienen al protagonista como nexo en común, y estas son Por un puñado de dolares, Por unos dolares más y El bueno, el feo y el malo. Aunque todavía no se conoce el dibujante, el guionista será Christos Gage (Stormwatch PHD, Annihilation Conquest: Quasar) y la serie empezará en Noviembre o Diciembre de este mismo año.En el primer arco que todavía no ha sido aprobado por MGM, la licenciataria de los derechos que debe aprobar todas las historias, por lo que no es definitivo, será la secuela de El bueno, el feo y el malo que durará 6 números. En la historia tiene una cantidad ingente de dinero confederado, pero los unionistas están tras el y también los conf
