Three covers for Hush have been revealed.

Gail Simone (of Birds of Prey) discusses her Rose and Thorn six issue mini-series. It sounds like she’ll be seriously delving into a character that hasn’t been more than an interesting side-note for the entire run of her existence, and I’m glad to see that DC is still willing to put out books about their…

This isn’t really a news item. If anything, it’s a bleg prompted by the earlier post about Super Friends. (That’s using your “weblog” to “beg” = “bleg”) For years, Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Pops have been putting out great albums for us lovers of soundtracks, like The Big Picture, The Great Fantasy Adventure Album…

I didn’t know that all the issues between now and then would ALSO be about politics. Don McPherson reviews the latest JLA over at Fourth Rail, and I’m wondering what…

That same page announces that there will be preview clips of the Teen Titans TV show on Cartoon Network May 3rd! (We’ll try to post a reminder.)

Geoff Johns talks about Hawkman over at Newsarama. It’s a great interview, IMHO. Johns discusses continuity, revamps, and whether it’s better to deal with or ignore the horrible Hawkman history mess.
