From ‘the Walking Dead’ To ‘saga,’ Image Comics Remains A Comic-book Force After 25 Years

... celebrating their 25 th anniversary with issue no. 163 of “The Walking Dead” selling for 25 cents. (Courtesy of Image Comics). More comic-to-live-action adaptations will eventually hit the movie screen. “ Wytches ” by Scott Snyder and Jock was picked up by Plan B Entertainment, Brad Pitt’s production company. “ Descender ” by Jeff Lemire and Dustin Nguyen was optioned by Sony. “Every time an option on something is announced, there’s a spike in sales, so if there’s a ‘Descender’ film or a ‘Wytches’ movie, if ‘ East of West ‘ becomes a TV show, or ‘ Plutona ,’ or ‘ Reborn ,’ then that’s very good news for everyone,” Stephenson said. Many of the original comic book series that came out of Image’s ’90 s debut were dubbed the next generation of superheroes. Mc Farlane’s “ Spawn ,” Larsen’s “ Savage Dragon ,” Liefeld’s “ Youngblood ,” all took advantage of the large ...

What Else Is On Super Bowl Sunday? Puppy Bowl, Walking Dead And More

... Starz Encore. Réne Zellweger may be from Katy, Texas, a suburb of the Super Bowl host-city Houston, but she’s the queen of romantic comedies, typically a true escape from any football game. Not one, but two movies will be air around the time of the Super Bowl that showcase Réne’s whispy smile and whispery voice for those in need of a fix. One of the movies, “Jerry Maguire,” is all about the business behind football and features some of the most memorable movie lines in recent history. With that in mind, if you’re watching it in another room while the football fans in your house are tuned into the game, they may come join you during the pregame rants or any bad commercials. The Naked Gun movie trilogy, The Sundance Channel. South Park marathon, Comedy Central. Tyler Perry’s Madea Goes to Jail, TNT. If you want more laughs and less romance, at least the sappy, serious kind, surely you’d want to watch one of these for some comedy relief. (No, I didn’t call you Shirley.). Each option brings its own kind of comedy to satisfy whatever mood you’re in. “Naked Gun” delivers complete ...

New Walking Dead Teaser Promises Something New

... some time: Hope. The Walking Dead's Biggest Changes From Comics to TV. "You see that hope that we maybe, just might, can," Danai Gurira explained. "You're seeing people in a whole new place of strategizing, but really against magnificent odds.". "They still don't have the weapons. They don't have the manpower," EP Gale Ann Hurd reminded. "But they've got the will.". They may have the will, but they've still got to find the way. "It is a very different fight," Sonequa Martin-Green—the newly-named star of CBS All Access' Star Trek: Discovery—teased. "It can't be won with just physical force.". The Walking Dead Is Getting Ready for War in First Season 7 B Photos. Of course, just because Rick and his crew have decided to put up a fight, that doesn't mean it'll be easy. "What we're building toward the end of seven is Rick trying to re-emerge and find himself again, and Negan is still there with a big smile on his face, waiting," Jeffrey Dean Morgan warned. "So, you know, we're getting to a breaking point.". EP Greg Nicotero, who directed the midseason premiere and promised EW a "stupendous" ...

Steven Yeun Goes From 'walking Dead' Zombies To Intergalactic Robots In 'voltron

... Yeun had already taken on the role of the mysterious Keith, the orphaned paladin (pilot) of the red lion, in Netflix's reboot of the '80 s cartoon series, aware of the brutal end that was going to befall Glenn Rhee, his “Walking Dead” character. "It's all a little bittersweet," says Yeun. "I feel great, though. It feels good to have completed something.". We caught up with Yeun to talk about "Voltron” —  which recently launched its second season —  and his role while seeing if we could draw any connections between Keith and Rhee. Did you join "Voltron" because you remembered playing with the lion toys as a kid. The way I became involved with it was because I had worked with  [“Voltron” executive producers] Joaquim [Dos Santos] and Lauren [Montgomery] on "The Legend of Korra,"  and it was a great experience. And for me, knowing Voltron, when they asked me to be involved, I said 'Yeah, sure!  How do I jump in?!'   I'm an ’80 s kid. I watched  different versions of it.  Growing up Korean, I had that version. There was also a Japanese version.  Yeah, it was just one of those formative things that happened when I was ...

The Walking Dead' Showrunner Promises 'you Will See Rick Grimes Smile

... of survivors. Showrunner Scott M. Gimple confirms that TWD’s second half of the season (which kicks off Feb. 12) will indeed feel very different from the episodes that preceded it, and that includes what may be the biggest Walking Dead twist of all. “It propels us into a very different half season from the one before it,” says Gimple of the midseason premiere, while adding the following promise: “Before the end of that very first episode back, you will see Rick Grimes smile.”. Smile?! Like, are we talking about an almost indecipherable smirk or a big toothy grin? Either way… WE’LL TAKE IT! Exec producer Greg Nicotero already explained to EW how they “had to burn the place down” before having the group rise up to fight the menace that is Negan, and Gimple is now echoing Andrew Lincoln’s comments to EW that “the thrill of the fight is back.”. With Rick, Daryl, Maggie, and others all now reunited at the Hilltop, the rest of season will likely be a walk-up to the “All Out War” arc from the comic on which the show is based. It means the days of silent subjugation are over, and that march towards war begins with a Feb. 12 episode that team ...

Danai Gurira Previews The 'riveting' Return

... I would try to do. There’s no way. These are not the people you can do that with. So, it was, but at the same time, I just told him I’m going to try to do this. So, it was a very interesting and fine line she had to walk. RELATED: Listen below for the latest in TV news this week. Now that Rick’s back to being Rick, what does that mean going forward for the group. I think it’s great because it means that we can return to ourselves. We are who we have lost through trying to figure how to deal with this very, very unquestionably daunting force that’s working against us, but our spirit is reignited through that community and that union. So it really is seeing that come to pass in the second half and seeing them re-congeal almost as who they are, returning to who they are, and Rick returning to who he is allows everybody to do the same. What does that mean in terms of what we should expect tonally in the second half. It’s really, really riveting, and it goes through various rich chapters of being responsive to a very daunting force, that new force that is a part of our new normal. It’s the ...

Did Santa Clarita Diet Just Take A Swing Pun Intended At The Walking Dead

... asking how he would kill her if given no other choice. Joel: "Fine. I'd bash your brains in with a baseball bat.". Sheila: "Oh my GOD, are you serious?! You'd kill me with a bat?". Joel: "I didn't want to play!". Sheila: "And bash my brains in? That is SO angry, where is that coming from?". Joel: "I don't know! That's how they kill the undead in movies!". Sheila: "But I'm your wife, you love me!". It may be kind of a stretch, but as an avid fan of TWD, I couldn't help but have vivid and horrifying flashbacks to last Fall's season premiere, when Negan brutally beats Glenn to death with a barbed-wire-wrapped baseball bat. Not only does Joel bring up the very same weapon, but it also seems like Sheila's strong reaction mirrors the abject horror and disgust fans expressed back in October after Glenn's graphic murder. It's so small, it's like a sympathy card to those that happen to notice it. And hey, while we're in the business of extremely subtle references, you may also have missed the Broad City moment from earlier in the season. Oh, and for the record, Sheila's right: the ones you love most do deserve better than a bashed-in head from a baseball ...

The Walking Dead's Clementine From The Telltale Games Might Be Coming To The Tv Show

... And with the new season (A New Frontier) seeing Clementine meet Jesus, it's more clear than ever that the games are tied to the comics – which the TV show is based on. One Walking Dead comics reader asked editor Sean Mackiewicz whether Clem could cross over to the comics or TV show. ©  Gene Page/AMC. "Telltale's latest instalment of their TWD game series 'The New Frontier' occurs during the time jump after TWD #126. So a lot could happen before she ever appeared," Sean replied (via Comic __link__ ). "And that's not me being coy. I have no idea. yet. It takes time to write those things.". That's not a no. And he confirms beyond doubt that the events of the games take place within the comics universe. We would love to see Clem square off against Negan. ©  AMC. The TV show's season 7 A may have been hugely divisive, but TV star Andrew Lincoln (who plays Rick Grimes) recently stood by the writers and directors, praising the ...
