Marvel

OK, so it's supposed to be the Iron Man 3 panel. And it is, but they started out by confirming a few thing for the second phase of the MCU. MCU? Marvel Cinematic Universe. What is there to be confirmed? Here's a handy list:

By Todd Allen As you might have guessed, there wasn't a lot of new news at the Avengers Vs. X-Men panel.  Nobody wants to spoil...

Lotsa headlines from Google's finest news sources!

The Cup o' Joe panel had a few announcements and has taken the first step to solving some of the solitication mysteries spinning out of "Marvel Now." A lot of it seems to be spun out of AVX.

Two primary announcements are coming out of the "Ultimate Marvel" Panel. (That really does sound goofy if you say it out loud, doesn't it?) First off, there's a new Ultimate Comics Iron Man mini-series coming out. Secondly, there's going to be an Event in the Ultimates line called "Divided We Fall."

Six new books from Marvel in October? BUT HOW CAN WE EVER HOPE TO UNRAVEL THEM?!

Some linkage from today's Google News feed! So much stuff, I had to split it in twain! Here's the media stuff, along with some pictures and video!

A few items from Marvel's Next Big Thing panel. Something of a round-up of recent events with some art.

So, what did I find while I waited for Comic-Con to gather up steam for warp speed? LEGOs! Star Trek! Walking Dead! Margaret Atwood!

Fine. You heard about some cancellations. You heard about Marvel Now. There's a few more interesting things in today's Marvel October solicitations. For my money, the most significant non-trumpeted news is the debut of the Dexter comic. Yes, Dexter the serial killer from the long-running Showtime series. And it's written by the novelist who created the character.

Say goodbye to nine of Marvel's titles! Marvel Now! ushers in a new world without the Fantastic Four, Iron Man, or... Rogue/Gambit.

The AVENGERS VS X-MEN crossover continued in May, while NEW MUTANTS and JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY had their own little private event with "Exiled". There's also the launch of the new FURY MAX title, the weekly mini HULK SMASH AVENGERS, more flogging of the undead horse with MARVEL ZOMBIES DESTROY!, and the return of Icon's TAKIO. As usual, Marvel had the largest share of the North American direct market, though by a smaller than usual margin - they led DC by 39% to 37% in unit share, and 35% to 33% in dollar terms.
