Warner Bros. Developing Booster Gold, Blue Beetle Feature Film!

by Bigyanks

The Tracking Board is reporting that Warner Bros. Are planning to develop a feature film using Booster Gold and Blue Beetle as the leads. They are confirming that Greg Berlanti, will be helming the project and executive producing. Greg Berlanti is the man behind the Arrow and The Flash TV shows on The CW. Heroic Hollywood also added to the breaking news by reporting that Marvel super writer Zak Penn, is being lured away from Marvel Studios to pen the script for the team up film.

Developing a Booster Gold and Blue Beetle film seems like WB is trying to take a step away from its usual serious tones. To me I could see maybe the studio going for a more family friendly light hearted film like Guardians of the Galaxy.

When Legends of Tomorrow was first announced to involve Rip Hunter I was excited at the prospect of Booster Gold and Blue Beetle joing the cast. This is one of the few I’m actually excited about and hopefully it comes to fruition.

Could Ted Kord Be Making An Appearance On The CW’s ‘Arrow’?

by Shawn Madden

Executive producer Marc Guggenheim has teased what could be the biggest cameo/easter egg yet to appear on The CW’s hit series Arrow.  Just a short while ago Guggenheim tweeted the following:

 

We don’t know for sure that Ted Kord himself will be making an appearance in the show or if we will just be seeing Kord Industries appear but there’s a number of exciting possibilities. Could The Blue Beetle work in the world of Arrow? Definitely. We’re going to have to wait and see if he does appear though when the series returns on the 24th.

Geekscape Comics: Grant Morrison Reintroducing The Multiverse To DC

by Shawn Madden

This weekend at MorrisonCon in Las Vegas, writer Grant Morrison announced that he will be reintroducing the Multiverse to DC Comics with an eight-part miniseries entitled Multiversity.

The following was said about the series on DC Comics’ blog:

“DC Entertainment is proud to confirm that Grant Morrison’s love letter to superhero comics, MULTIVERSITY, will be hitting stores in late 2013.

MULTIVERSITY is an 8-issue series comprising 6 one-shots and a two-part conclusion with each issue featuring a 38-page lead story followed by an 8-page backup. Each issue takes place on a different parallel world from the main DC Earth and functions as a number one issue. Each world in the Multiverse publishes comic books about the heroes on the OTHER worlds. Once the characters realize this, they then unite to respond to the villains!

Additionally, each universe (which have been brewing in Morrison’s mind for years) will open up an endless series of worlds and realities for future writers and creators to use, expand upon and enjoy.”

Also, each issue will be drawn by a different artist, and while DC is keeping most names under wraps, it is confirmed that Frank Quitely will be handling the art duties for the fourth book, Pax Americana. Below is a preview of PAX AMERICANA #1, eaturing The Question and what appears to be Ted Kord aka Blue Beetle. The Pax story revolves around the assassination of a president and how the Charleston characters failed him.
