The Long Halloween is still widely considered one of the greatest Batman stories ever told, and almost 30 years after the seminal comic book first hit shelves, Jeph Loeb will conclude the iconic crime saga with a new 10-issue series.
Announced today at the McM London convention, Batman The Long Halloween: The Last Halloween will pick up after the events of 2021's The Long Halloween Special one-shot, which was originally intended to be the start of a new story, but was put on hold following the passing of artist Tim Sale in 2022.
The new series won't feature new artwork from Sale beyond the cover for each issue. Instead, a rotating team of illustrators will provide work on the comic in tribute to the late artist, including Eduardo Risso (Flashpoint: Batman - Knight of Vengeance), Klaus Janson (The Dark Knight Returns) and Mark Chiarello (Batman: Black and White).

When walking out of James Gunn's 2014 film "Guardians of the Galaxy," the 10th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, this author heard several other audiences members talking about the film's post-credits stinger. In the epilogue, the vaguely villainous Collector (Benicio Del Toro) sat destitute among the ruins of his collection or rare cosmic antiquities. Only a few of his beloved baubles has survived a cosmic blast, including a dog from Earth. The dog, wearing a Soviet space suit, was clearly salvaged from the 1960s Russian space program wherein canines were sent up in rockets to test their safety. The dog in "Guardians" is not Laika, but a fictional dog named Cosmo. The Collector had been keeping it in a cage on a distant planet for decades.
As Cosmo gives the Collector a sympathetic lick, a voice from off-screen (Seth Green) immediately points out how gross the dog is. A...

Exclusive: eOne is developing a TV series based on the Paranormal Hitmen comic books from writer Brett Murphy and illustrator Wilson Gandolpho.
Billed as Ghostbusters meets Pulp Fiction, Paranormal Hitmen is an irreverent action-comedy that follows Gene Rizzo and Devon Grace, two mob hitmen whose lives are turned upside down when they’re accidentally recruited into a secret government agency tasked with hunting down paranormal threats. These low-down criminals then face threats from the living And the dead—determined to control the world of the paranormal, while literally confronting ghosts of their pasts.
The first edition of Paranormal Hitmen was released by Behemoth Entertainment (the company recently acquired by Sumerian Records and Films) in January. (Behemoth owns rights to all titles in the series.) eOne will produce the TV series under the late Hasbro CEO Brian Goldner’s Altar Rock label, with Goldner and Josh Feldman exec producing alongside Murphy and Gandolpho.

After two very good issues (despite the godawful Dan Didio story that opened #2), Batman: Black and White #3 is the first issue that doesn’t live up to expectations by serving up some really great looking comics with some very forgettable stories.
The opening story, Rule Number One, written and drawn by the brilliant Lee Bermejo is a head-scratcher if only in terms of figuring out the principal character (not Batman). We see a young man on a classic motorcycle as he drives into the bad part of Gotham (isn’t it all pretty much bad?) to score drugs. We know he’s working with Batman and that this is part of his plan but who is the young man? Dick Grayson, Jason Todd, Tim Drake or someone completely new? The problem is that all three Robins kinda look alike and because they’ve been drawn by hundreds of artists over the years,...
