What’s SHOOT THE MESSENGER?

Well, AICN COMICS: SHOOT THE MESSENGER is your weekly one stop shop for comic book news that’s dropped in the previous week. Thanks to Newsarama, CBR, Wizard, etc. for reporting it as it breaks. Click on the links for the original stories. This column cuts the crap to run down all the vital information for those of you who don’t follow it as it comes in, and serves it all up with that special ingredient of @$$y goodness. It’s also the place for interviews, previews, and special reports.

Hey folks, Ambush Bug here. I got an email this weekend that claims that this image is a still from the new HULK DVD that shows what looks like Captain America frozen in the ice. Haven’t seen this anywhere on the net, so I decided to put it here. Check it out.

The guy who sent me this said that if you play the Alternate Opening Scene and pause it at 2:25 into it, you’ll see the above image. Pretty damn cool. If it’s real, it’s a hell of an Easter Egg for the DVD.

Well, on with the previews.

Hey folks, short column this week. We’ve got a pair of previews for you to enjoy.

First up is a peek at issue six of THE DARKNESS. This book is written by Phil Hester with art from Michael Broussard. Check it out.

DARKNESS #6 is in stores this Wednesday.

Next we have a preview of JUSTICE SOCIETY OF AMERICA #19. We’re up to our eyeballs in Gog and Magog these days in JSA. This arc has been a slow burner, but big things are happening to the JSA and soon the rest of the DCU. Check out this preview if you don’t believe me.

Get your Gog on this Wednesday.

Finally, we have a preview of this week's issue of Brian Wood's DMZ from Vertigo. After the recent multipart storyline regarding an attempt at a free election in the demilitarized zone, the book is taking a brief jaunt out to Staten Island for the first time since the series started. Wood is using the two-parter to introduce us to yet another new aspect of life in the DMZ, and naturally it's every bit as cheery as you'd expect from this title. I continue to be impressed by how well thought out the political and military scenarios in this title are. Check out these pages...

Be sure to check out DMZ #35, bombing the comic book racks this Wednesday.

Since we saw the first image of the new Cap this week from the HULK DVD, it’s got me thinking again about casting. Who do you think should play Cap in CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER?
