Scott Eastwood is returning to the world of
Fast and Furious, THR reports.
The actor is set to reprise his role as Little Nobody in
Fast X, the latest installment of Universal’s hard-driving multi-billion-dollar franchise that is currently shooting in London.
The high-wattage cast already has luminaries such as Jason Momoa, Charlize Theron and Brie Larson, along with franchise vets Michelle Rodriguez and Tyrese Gibson and star Vin Diesel, who is also one of the producers. Alan Ritchson, star of the Amazon series
Reacher, joined the production last week as one of the villains.
Eastwood appeared in
Fate of the Furious, the eighth installment released in 2017. His character was a rule-following government agent who is frequently seen with his boss, Mr. Nobody, a shady manipulator played by Kurt Russell. It is unclear if Russell is returning to the franchise.
Louis Leterrier is directing
Fast X, having replaced Justin Lin days after shooting had started.
DYNAMITE'S BIGGEST CHARACTERS STAR IN FAIRY TALE SPECIALS THIS SUMMER05/19/22 @ 1:24 pm EST
Source: Dynamite | Categories: Dynamite | Comments (0) | E-mail Article | Add a CommentOnce upon a time... every hero has journeys that you wouldn't expect, in far away lands, facing fearsome monsters, being manipulated by envious queens, or stalked through the woods by hungry wolves. This August Dynamite debuts three special one-shots, as their three biggest characters are put in the shoes of classic fables.
Red Sonja stumbles upon a mysterious giant bean stalk, suddenly sprouted from the Earth via magical beans. Atop the imposing climb resides some captivating treasure - oh, and also a giant craving human flesh and bones. The She-Devil With a Sword has never turned down a battle like this before, so readers shouldn't expect anything less than thrilling action as she overcomes her latest foe. Writer Jordan Clark (
Samurai Sonja, Aquaman) spins this yarn.

Mirror, mirror, who is the fairest of them all? On the planet Barsoom, that would be the one and only Dejah Thoris. Which means the envious queen has struck the Princess of Mars out into the wilderness. Only to make countless friends and allies in her exile, unlike any she'd seen before. Her time will come to return to the queen and lay claim to her rightful throne. Ron Marz (
Silver Surfer, Green Lantern) returns to the Warlord of Mars mythos following his celebrated 2014 take.

Last but certainly not least, Vampirella gets an extra accessory for her iconic costume, as she rocks a famous red hooded cape. With story by Soo Lee, Vampirella is off to deliver wine and cake to her beloved grandmother. A horrid, fanged beast stalks the woods, hunting easy prey. Little do they know their prospective victim has her very own fangs!

To depict these beloved characters in these classic fairy tale scenarios, editor Nate Cosby has called on three spectacular artists for three covers on each special issue, respectively. Soo Lee, also writing Vampirella, brings her signature style. Lesley "Leirix" Li's contributions will have fans dropping their jaws. And they're rounded out with fan-favorite Sebastian Piriz.
Dynamite's Red Sonja, Vampirella, and Dejah Thoris Fairy Tale one-shots are solicited in Diamond Comic Distributors’ June 2022 Previews catalog, the premier source of merchandise for the comic book specialty market, and slated for release in August 2022. Comic book fans are encouraged to preorder copies of the issues with their local comic book retailers. They will also be available for individual customer purchase through digital platforms courtesy of Comixology, Kindle, iBooks, Google Play, Dynamite Digital, ComicsPlus, and more!
LADY HEL RISES FOR HER NEW DYNAMITE SERIES05/19/22 @ 10:40 am EST

Lady Hel rises in her first solo series spotlight this summer to heat up comic store shelves and collector's hands in a thrilling story from the world of Chaos!
The mysterious Lady Hel is the ultimate personification of death itself. Or well... she was. After messing with the half demon, half vampiress Purgatori, her authority and powers were stripped away by Purgi. Now deposed, Lady Hel must find a way to claw her way back to her rightful throne, by any means necessary.
While Lady Hel attempts to conquer this quest, with barely a scratch of her former powerful abilities, her enigmatic opposite in Lady Demon can't be far behind. In this tale of horrific gods and monsters, there is bound to be plenty of clashes between them, and fans won't want to miss this ripping and tearing action!

Fan-favorite writer Erik Burnham, beloved for his work on franchises like
Ghostbusters,
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and more, returns to Chaos! following his contributions in the bestselling
Red Sonja: Age of Chaos!. He's joined by rising star Kazakhstani artist Zhengis Tasbolatov. Their story also follows loosely in the threads of
Vampirella vs. Purgatori, one of the last major chapters in the Chaos! crew's history, but fans can jump right into this first issue!
"I was intrigued by Lady Hel during the little bit I got to use her in the
Red Sonja: Age of Chaos mini, she seemed like a character that would fit well into a story with tropes from across mythology, which is one of the kinds of stories I love to tell," said writer Erik Burnham (
Ghostbusters, Red Sonja). "Turns out that that was exactly the case, and between that and the place her character was left after the
Vampirella vs. Purgatori miniseries, I got to have a lot of fun playing with different kinds of underworld lore. It's been a blast!"
For her first major time rocking on covers with her own logo and all, Dynamite had to call in some big guns for the covers. Lucio Parrillo leads the pack, with his masterful painting featuring Lady Demon as well. Daniel Maine, Mike Mahle, and Geebo Vigonte round out the band. While the creative and talented cosplayer Rachel Hollon marks a first with what we believe is the first major cosplay of the character. Well, at least officially spotlighted on a cover!
LADY HEL #1 is solicited in Diamond Comic Distributors’ June 2022 Previews catalog, the premier source of merchandise for the comic book specialty market, and slated for release in August 2022. Comic book fans are encouraged to preorder copies of the issue with their local comic book retailers. It will also be available for individual customer purchase through digital platforms courtesy of Comixology, Kindle, iBooks, Google Play, Dynamite Digital, ComicsPlus, and more!
JAMES BOND TANGLED IN CONSPIRACY IN NEW COMIC SERIES '007'05/19/22 @ 10:32 am EST
Source: Dynamite | Categories: James Bond 007 | Comments (0) | E-mail Article | Add a CommentDynamite announces
007, a brand new James Bond comic series by critically acclaimed writer Phillip Kennedy Johnson (
Action Comics, Alien, The Last God) and artist Marco Finnegan, debuting this August.
The most famous spy in fiction returns to heat up the summer comics season with a thrilling tale of double agents, assassins, old flames, and heaps of intrigue. James Bond finds himself outplayed with a metaphorical bad hand on a Russian excursion, forced to eliminate an asset he was meant to extract. A shootout with his enemy counterparts leaves Bond with more questions than answers... questions about their American accents, their bleeding-edge technology, and most importantly, how they seem to know so much about him.

Abandoned by his superiors, facing suspension at MI6, and questioning his waning sense of duty, 007 gets an urgent message from former 00 agent Gwendolyn Gann, a mentor and old flame from his earliest days. Gann's gotten back in the spy game, and needs Bond's help... but will Bond make it on time? And what are her ties to the mysteruous new player known only as Myrmidon?
“Contributing to the generations-long saga of James Bond is a great honor and a ton of fun,” said Phillip Kennedy Johnson. “Marco and I are going to give readers all the things that make them love Bond—the action and physicality, the tech, the sense of style, the inherent coolness in Bond’s every word and action—but we’re also bringing some things they haven’t seen before. We’ve seen plenty of Special Agent James Bond, but we don’t often see much SPYCRAFT in what he does. That’s an element that sometimes gets lost, and I want to bring it back without giving up the car chases or bone-crunching action. We’re also introducing some characters that I’m SUPER excited for readers to meet… characters who put some intriguing new spins on readers’ expectations.”
The new series, titled
007, takes readers on a rollercoaster ride through the high stakes world of intelligence and espionage, with a healthy dash of breakneck action. Johnson brings back fan-favorite characters while also introducing a whole new cast, keeping readers guessing about their motives and loyalties. Gwen Gann is a new "Bond girl," with a storied past, a quick wit, and skills to rival Bond's own. Of course there's a new big bad as well, but that would be a bit of a spoiler...
Phillip Kennedy Johnson is an Eisner Award-nominated bestselling writer renowned for his ongoing take on
Superman, the current core story of the
Alien(s) franchise in comics, and his fan-favorite fantasy epic
The Last God. Beyond writing, he serves as a Master Sergeant in the United States Army. Though separated by an ocean and occupational specialty, his military experience is influencing the exciting new take on 007.
Johnson and Finnegan are joined by a team of top tier agents... cover artists to depict the super spy. Tommy Lee Edwards, Marc Aspinall, Soo Lee, and returning 007 artist Marc Laming all contribute captivating takes on Bond that leap off the covers like all the classic posters.
007 #1 is solicited in Diamond Comic Distributors’ June 2022 Previews catalog, the premier source of merchandise for the comic book specialty market, and slated for release in August 2022. Comic book fans are encouraged to preorder copies of the issue with their local comic book retailers. It will also be available for individual customer purchase through digital platforms courtesy of Comixology, Kindle, iBooks, Google Play, Dynamite Digital, ComicsPlus, and more!

CREATORS TOM KING & ELSA CHARRETIER TO LAUNCH HORROR/ROMANCE SERIES 'LOVE EVERLASTING' THIS AUGUST 05/18/22 @ 5:03 pm EST
Source: Image Comics | Categories: Image | Comments (0) | E-mail Article | Add a CommentFrom superstar, award-winning creators Tom King (
Batman, The Vision, Mister Miracle) and Elsa Charretier (
November, The Infinite Loop), cast popular Romance genre tropes in an unsettling Horror light in their new series
Love Everlasting. This ongoing series will launch in August from Image Comics.
"
Love Everlasting is my dream project. It is a chance to create another
Vision or
Mister Miracle, to explore the themes of conformity and rebellion through the tale of one woman's journey through the fantastic and horrifying world of Romance,” said King. “After a decade in comics, this is my first creator-owned and the most ambitious project I've ever worked on. Elsa and I are trying to create another
Sandman, an epic exploration of the entire history of storytelling, of how myths and tales of love haunt us, enthrall us, imprison us, and perhaps, occasionally, free us."
In
Love Everlasting, Joan Peterson discovers that she is trapped in an endless, terrifying cycle of “romance”—a problem to be solved, a man to marry—and every time she falls in love she’s torn from her world and thrust into another teary saga. Her bloody journey to freedom and revelation starts in this breathtaking, groundbreaking first issue.
Charretier added: “Never before in my career have I had the opportunity to dig so deeply into all aspects of storytelling. Love Everlasting pushes me to explore world-building, to extrapolate designs from all eras and places and adapt them to comics, to come up with gestures and compositions that delight readers and terrify them all the same. We're really firing on all cylinders here.”
The series will feature a number of eye-popping variant covers showcasing the talents of such artists as: Cliff Chiang, Alison Sampson, Sean Phillips, Amanda Conner, Terry Dodson, Tula Lotay, Stjepan Šejić, Jenny Frison, Clay Mann, Leslie Hung, Matias Bergara, Mitch Gerads, and more!
