Post Comic-Con Glee

So what Comic-Con announcement brought you the most joy?  The Fables' spin-off Fairest.  The Legion of Superheroes/Star Trek crossover?  The new Defenders?  The return of Ryan Choi?  Aaron and Silvestri on Incredible Hulk?  Loeb and McGuinness on Cable?  Or something else?

  • Oh, I thought this thread was specifically about the Glee-related news that came out of Comic-Con... :-/
  • The Legion/Star Trek book is a big one for me. Though Brian K. Vaughn and Fiona Staples' new Saga ongoing from Image sounds like a winner, too.
  • Alan, I suppose that comes under the "anything else" category. 

     

    As for the show Glee, I'm a little skeptical.  Different people involved with the show are saying different things.  A couple of weeks ago, Ryan Murphy said that they wouldn't follow the characters after they graduated and now someone else says the exact opposite.  I'm just hoping for a great Season Three.  I'll try to ignore Season Four casting and story rumors until next summer.

  • I'm hoping for a better Season Three, myself. Glee can be wonderful and infuriating from one episode to the next, and even from one scene to the next. I'd like some consistency.

     

    One positive step is that they've given Sue Sylvester something to do other than play Wicked Witch of the West to Mr. Schuester.

    That's been a problem all along.

  • One blinding example: The season finale. We had buildup all season that the kids were going to compete in Nationals in New York. It always seemed odd that New Directions is presented as just another class, with weekly assignments, rather than a group working toward a goal -- that is, one that should develop its set list for the competition and rehearse it until they've got it down. But in this episode, we saw that they chose to present an original song at Nationals -- a bad idea, for any number of reasons -- and, incredibly, didn't even write it until the morning of the competition!

  • I read up on the Fables news. I'm behind on the series but the new stuff, including the new ongoing sounds interesting.

     

    I am looking forward to the DCnU and how the current ongoing series are wrapped up.

     

    I liked the concept art posters for the Avengers movie, that can't get here soon enough.

  • I thought the season finale set up pretty well that we WOULD follow some of these kids post high school...especially Rachel and Kurt. 

     

    Clark, sure the "write something that AM" was dumb...but the show makes me too happy to get upset by those things.  As a former drama-kid from Indiana (and current board member of a Shakespeare education non-profit), that interaction in the Wicked theater with the usher punched me in the guts...in a good way.

     

    Anyway...comics and stuff.  Any info about Joss Whedon's Avengers is welcome...can't wait.  The Fables spin-off looks to be great.  "Smile" winning the Eisner made me...uh...smile.  The DC panels actually made me a lot less interested in the new directions (see what I just did there?). 

  • Whoa, I didn't realize Ryan Choi was coming back! Well, it is the least they could do... that's more of a "tail between our legs, head lowered, and whimpering a half-hearted apology for being racist" move than anything. Sorry, that death ticked me off.

     

    The DC books I'm more interested in are the war books, the dark books, and the western. Anything that's not just more super-heroes.

    From Newsarama today, this image made me extremely happy.
