Beginning on April 6, DC’s Green Lantern Corps are back in a new Green Lantern #1 by Geoffrey Thorne and Dexter Soy! Spinning out of Future State: Green Lantern and Infinite Frontier, John Stewart is at the center of the new series—plus Young Justice’s Teen Lantern and Far Sector star Sojourner “Jo” Mullein!

With the majority of Green Lanterns called back to Oa, John Stewart arrives alongside Teen Lantern Keli Quintela, whose homemade gauntlet could be one of the most powerful and unstable weapons in the universe. With the entire landscape of the universe in flux, is this the end of the Green Lantern Corps...or a new beginning?

As the new Green Lantern series progresses, Jo Mullein (Far Sector #10 arrives on February 2) joins the Corps to find out why the Central Power Battery exploded. Jo and Keli are on the case—are they the World’s Finest Lanterns?? What will this dynamic duo uncover as they investigate!?

This bold new story kicks off in DC’s Infinite Frontier #0 on March 2, where fans will see Dexter Soy’s incredible Green Lantern artwork for the first time.

* Spoiler if you haven't see the Wandavision Finale *

Of all the interesting reveals in the series finale of WandaVision, the one that threw people the most was the revelation of Fake Pietro’s real name. Discovered by Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris) from some mail and a head shot, it seems the character Evan Peters has actually been playing is named Ralph Bohner. And while the surname could be pronounced Bay-Ner as former Speaker of the House John Bohner used, the show called him Bow-Ner which Peters’ mind-controlled character even laughed at.

But it is possible that this was one last nod to the sitcom motif the show had been running with. The series director Matt Shakman was a child actor himself and worked on a series called Just the Ten of Us, which was basically a spin-off of the series Growing Pains. And while the series starred folks like Alan Thicke, Kirk Cameron and Tracey Gold, one of it’s stand out characters was Richard “Boner” Stabone played by Andrew Koenig, the son of Star Trek alum Walter Koenig.

Most of the focus involving Disney of late has been centered on their streaming platform, and that’s in part due to the fact that their Southern California amusement parks have been shut down. That’s about to change. On Friday, California Health and Human Services Secretary Mark Ghaly announced that Disneyland and other amusement parks would be allowed to reopen at limited capacity starting on April 1st.

Case of COVID-19 have been dropping recently following the holiday surge and as long as the trend continues, the parks will be allowed to remain open. The rate of infection must remain below 7 cases per 100,000 in a county.

Disneyland closed in March of 2020, but its sister park Disneyworld in Orlando, Florida, has been open since July in a limited capacity. The park is said to have stringent safety measures including a mask mandate and has had not reported outbreaks.

Elizabeth Olsen is getting rave reviews for her performance as Wanda Maximoff in the Disney+ series WandaVision, but some of the sweetest praise comes from an old family friend of sorts. Olsen grew up around the set of Full House as her sisters Mary=Kate and Ashley shared the role of Michelle Tanner. One of the adult stars of the series, John Stamos, remembers Elizabeth fondly and posted a photo from back in the day to Instragram with a note.

“One day she’s a little girl wandering the set, and next thing you know, she’s taking over a whole town, mind-controlling the citizens to play out her favorite TV sitcoms! They grow up so fast…”

Stamos will also be on Disney+ in a new show called Big Shots that debuts in April.

Steven Spielberg really liked the idea of the Stephen King and Peter Straub novel The Talisman that he acquired the rights two years prior to the book being published and in perpetuity back in 1982. And according to The Hollywood Reporter, his 35 years spent developing the property is over as things are finally moving forward.

Spielberg’s Amblin Television and Paramount Television Studios are teaming with Stranger Things creators the Duffer Brothers to adapt the novel for Netflix. They’ll be bringing in Curtis Gwinn, who also worked on Stranger Things, to act as writer and showrunner for the project.

Talisman is about Jack Sawyer, a 12-year-old boy, who sets out on an epic quest to save his dying mother. He searches for a talisman that can both save his mother and the world, but he must travel between the real world and a fantasy world called the Territories.

King and Straub released a sequel in 2001 called Black House that follows an adult Jack as a retired L.A. homicide detective trying to solve a series of murders in a small town in Wisconsin.

There seems to be a pattern forming on Disney+ where they show a series, then take a week off before starting a new series and in that week in between they show a behind-the-scenes episode of the last show and give us something to set up the new series. At least that’s what they did in the space between The Mandalorian and WandaVision. It was expected to be the same between WandaVision and the upcoming The Falco and the Winter Soldier. That seems to have slightly changed.

They released a Star Wars: Gallery for the Mandalorian and the week before WandaVision started they posted a new show called Marvel Legends with recap episode focused on Wanda Maximoff and The Vision. There is a look at the making of WandaVision scheduled for Friday March 12th and the new series starts the following Friday. But the Marvel Legends for The Falcon and The Winter Soldier have already been posted as of yesterday.

Each is a 7 to 8 minute recapping of the characters time in the MCU, in this case focusing on such films as Captain America: The First Avenger, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: End Game. Oh, and of course Falcon’s appearance in Ant-Man.

The Falcon and the Winter Soldier will be a six episode series running from March 19th to April 23rd and stars Anthony Mackie, Sebastian Stan, Emily VanCamp, Daniel Brühl, Wyatt Russell and Erin Kellyman and will feature the return of characters like Sharon Carter, Helmut Zemo and Batroc the Leaper.

After a teaser released yesterday and centering on the Dark Knight, today it's the Man of Steel.

Superman (Henry Cavill) sports his black costume and silver glyph in a new image and short clip released via social media. Cavill was the first member of the Justice League to be cast or appear onscreen, originating his version of Clark Kent in 2013's The Man of Steel -- a movie that enjoyed a virtual screening that proved to be the setting for the Zack Snyder's Justice League announcement last year. The black costume, of course, also debuted in that film -- but only in a dream sequence, first appearing "for real" in the forthcoming release.

The film will spotlight a number of things that were originally planned for Snyder's two Justice League movies, including Darkseid, Granny Goodness, and other characters from Jack Kirby's The New Gods. Those characters would have interacted quite a bit more with Superman, had Snyder's multi-movie arc for the character played out as expected. (via ComicBook)

Steve Rogers. John Walker. Bucky Barnes. Sam Wilson. In honor of the iconic hero’s 80th anniversary, these four heroes who have taken up the mantle of Captain America will team up this June in a brand-new limited series THE UNITED STATES OF CAPTAIN AMERICA.

Written by Christopher Cantwell (Iron Man) with art by Dale Eaglesham (Fantastic Four), THE UNITED STATES OF CAPTAIN AMERICA will celebrate the character’s incredible legacy by bringing together various Captains America from throughout the years for a grand adventure to find Captain America’s missing shield and solve the mystery of his masked thief’s plan. Along the way, fans will be introduced to fascinating new heroes who have been inspired to follow in Steve Roger’s footsteps. Joining Cantwell and Eaglesham will be an all-star lineup of diverse and extraordinary creative teams who will dive even deeper into the origins and motivations of these new shield-bearers in special backup stories, starting with a revolutionary tale by writer Josh Trujillo and artist Jan Balzadua. This intriguing examination of the very concepts that define Captain America will explore the powerful impact the hero has had on the world outside your window.

The incredible saga kicks off when Captain America’s shield is stolen. No one understands the value of the shield like those who’ve wielded it, so Steve Rogers and Sam Wilson set out on a road trip across America to chase down the thief. But instead, they find the Captains, everyday people from all walks of life who’ve taken up the mantle of Captain America to defend their communities. And for some reason, the shield thief wants them all dead. Can Sam and Steve get to them first?

“It’s an incredible gift and definitely a creative challenge to take on the character of Captain America, especially during these unprecedented times in our country’s history. With this miniseries we're hoping to explore what the idea of Captain America means at this precise moment—not just on the grand stage of the world—but to everyday and often overlooked communities throughout the United States,” Cantwell explained. “This story is ultimately structured like a “road movie,” harkening back in ways to old Bob Rafelson and Hal Ashby films, with Steve Rogers (and soon Sam Wilson, and later… other key members in Steve’s life) getting to directly interact with those he represents as a symbol and has sworn to protect, but in an up close and personal way he hasn’t experienced in a while. I’m extremely excited to show how the idea of Captain America has been conceptualized and translated by various groups in the country, and for me the juice of the story is Cap reconciling so many interpretations OF himself WITH himself, both as a person and as an icon. This kind of cross-country epic is uniquely American and seems like a fantastic way to celebrate the character’s legacy right now."

Eighty years ago, industry pioneers Jack Kirby and Joe Simon introduced the world to Captain America and Marvel Comics is proud to commemorate this legendary character’s anniversary with this bold new series. Stay tuned for more talent announcements and story details, and don’t miss this exciting new chapter in the Captain America mythos when THE UNITED STATES OF CAPTAIN AMERICA hits stands on June 2nd.

New York City, the nation’s leading movie market along with still-shuttered Los Angeles, springs back to life Friday after being flattened by Covid-19 for nearly a year.

A pulse was detected in advance ticket sales with a handful of shows selling out at AMC Entertainment’s flagship Empire 25 theater in Times Square including a 4:30 p.m. Tom & Jerry and evening screenings of Boogie, Nomadland, Promising Young Woman, Wonder Woman 1984 and Tenet — as the Christopher Nolan pic released August 12 bends the laws of time. New releases Raya and the Last Dragon and Chaos Walking were big sellers on Day One uptown at the AMC Magic Johnson.

One excited customer is NYC mayoral candidate Andrew Yang — he’ll will be heading out for a date night to celebrate. “That dinky, and let’s be honest, tacky, sign in LA can’t mask the fact NYC is the real entertainment capital. So get your popcorn ready, folks, because movie theaters are back in action and it’s date night at the Yang household,” the former Democratic presidential hopeful said in a press advisory. He’ll be hitting the AMC Empire but didn’t say which film.

But at 25% capacity — the limit set by Gov. Andrew Cuomo — sold-out shows don’t mean what they used to. When Cuomo announced the reopening on February 22, he limited theaters to one out of every four available seats and no more than 50 people. That’s a lot of X’s on the seating chart. If you reserve at an AMC, the system automatically blocks out the seats on either side.

As vaccines roll out with increasing efficiency and Covid-19 cases fall in New York (and nationally), some in the industry think New York City could raise the 25% capacity to 50% relatively soon – maybe May or June. Theaters in the rest of New York State are already open at 50% capacity. (via Deadline)

"The new Squadron Supreme of America have been a big part of my Avengers run almost since the beginning, and that has all been leading to this," Aaron said. "As militantly-nationalist, government-sponsored heroes operating out of Washington D.C., they've been calling themselves 'America's Mightiest Heroes' for a while now. In Heroes Reborn, they become much more. In this world where the Avengers never formed, the Squadron are now and have forever been Earth's Mightiest Heroes."
