Finally got around to buying the MP3 of this tonight as part of my "time to buy all the Glee songs I meant to buy when their respective episodes aired" buying spree on Amazon MP3. Definitely one of my favorites from the season. - Brian Chang

Back in the beginning of February Game Rant told you about DC Comics’ plan to release comic book mini-series tying together one of the best games of the past few years and one of the most anticipated games of this year. DC Comics will be releasing a special six-issue Batman mini-series to bridge the gap between Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City. Back in February we only got to see the cover art for the series, but now DC Comics has released the first five pages of issue #1. Warning: spoilers ahead. - CarlC from Bookmarklet

There are some specifics known about Batman: Arkham City’s story already. Arkham City will take place about one year after the events of Arkham Asylum. The game will take place mostly outdoors because Arkham Asylum has been moved to the new ‘Arkham City’ (by order of former Arkham warden, and newly elected mayor, Quincy Sharp). The ‘city’ allows all of the Arkham inmates to roam freely... more... - CarlC

"Warner Bros. Animation will follow Green Lantern: Emerald Knights and Batman: Year One with an animated feature “loosely inspired” by the 2000 JLA story arc “Tower of Babel.” Announced Friday at WonderCon in San Francisco by executive producer Bruce Timm, the tentatively titled Justice League: Doom is the last work of respected writer and producer Dwayne McDuffie, who passed away on Feb. 22. Written by Mark Waid and illustrated by Howard Porter, Drew Geraci and others, “Tower of Babel” centers on the perceived betrayal of the Justice League by Batman, whose secret files detailing the weaknesses of his colleagues fall into the hands of Ra’s al Ghul. He uses the information to incapacitate the League while distracting Batman with the theft of the bodies of Thomas and Martha Wayne. The revelation that the Dark Knight had devises contingency plans to defeat each of his teammates naturally creates friction, leading the JLA to consider expelling him from their ranks. Elements of “Tower of Babel” were incorporated into “Starcrossed,” the 2004 three-part series finale of the Justice League animated series." - RAPatton from Bookmarklet

A good story line and an interesting choice for DC's next animated movie feature - CarlC

I've been behind, I didn't even know about the GL and Batman titles. Looking forward to all three! - Brian Chang

"One of several slight disappointments at the box office last week was The Lincoln Lawyer, an adaptation of a Michael Connelly novel with Matthew McConaughey in the lead. We haven’t seen the film, but based on the poster, it appears to be about a lawyer who works from the hood of his car. Yeah, we’re gonna go with that. Anyway, it came in fourth for the weekend, so whoever approved McConaughey wearing a shirt in the poster is surely fired already. But the film met with warm reviews, garnering an 82% at Rotten Tomatoes and positive comparisons to the source material (even from the author himself)." - Shevonne from Bookmarklet

As much as I loved the book, I think Jaws was a better achievement than its source. I'd add Clear and Present Danger and Deliverance and Dead Calm to that list. - Guy

"As a guy whose biggest contribution to baking last year was popping open a tube of crescent roll dough, I find the efforts of the kitchen-inclined fairly heroic (super heroic if they use the secret ingredient of love). Heroic bakers now have stylish aprons to match their efforts, thanks to the custom works of Bethany Sew-and-Sew http://www.bethanysewandsew.com/p... , who offers designs based on Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Sailor Moon and scads more at her website. Check out a few of our favorite designs after the jump. Bethany Sew-and-Sew's creations run from $35-50+ based on each apron's design and materials and come in versatile sizes for men, women and children. BS&S also takes custom commissions, meaning your kitchen-themed cosplay dreams could easily become a reality if you book early enough in the convention season. " - RAPatton

"NBC gave its new superhero drama The Cape a boost with a pair of promo spots that aired during Sunday Night Football. They were particularly well-timed considering that earlier today the network announced it will premiere the series on Sunday, Jan. 9, with a two-hour episode before it slides into its regular time slot at 9 p.m. Monday beginning Jan. 17. In case you’ve forgotten, The Cape stars David Lyons (ER) as Vince Faraday, an honest cop on a corrupt police force, who is framed for a series of murders and presumed dead. Forced to leave his wife Dana (Life on Mars’ Jennifer Ferrin) and son Trip (FlashForward‘s Ryan Wynott) and go into hiding, Faraday assumes the identity of The Cape, his son’s favorite comic-book superhero, to take the law into his own hands. The series also stars: James Frain (True Blood) as billionaire Peter Fleming, who moonlights as the killer Chess; Keith David (Death at a Funeral) as Max Malini, the ringleader of a circus gang of bank robbers who mentors... more... - RAPatton from Bookmarklet

Well, for those of us who don't care to follow politics full-time, where is a good place to get REAL info before elections? Or can one of you just tell me whom I should vote for and why? :-) - Lisa L. Seifert | FHG™ from Android

The OS backup on USB drive is cool. I'm not sure why the Mac App Store would get the credit for steering software distribution away from optical discs, though, when others (Steam, Adobe, and Microsoft, to name a few) are already giving users the option to acquire their software by download. - Brian Chang

"Spider-Man is the walking party of the Marvel Universe -- or at least, he talks like it -- so leave it to him to invite fellow Marvel heroes Daredevil and Wolverine, over for a friendly game of poker. Unfortunately for them, Spidey also invited someone else that you won't normally find in the Marvel U, someone who isn't known for his love of anything that doesn't involve brutal fisticuffs and vigilante justice. That someone, as you might have guessed, is Batman. As we all know from his tragic origin story and continually grim pursuit of crime-fighting, Batman rarely has anything to smile about. He's a very serious, angry man who will take you down the second you throw on a second-rate Halloween costume, and judging by this fan comic, his real superpower may be his ability to bring a party to a grinding halt through sheer force of buzzkilll." - RAPatton from Bookmarklet
