Looking at that list, Lee Pace sounds pretty perfect to me.

What has he been in besides Lincoln? Anything I might have actually seen?

The Fall? Did you ever see that?

He was also in that Pushing Daisies show that I saw the first 6 or 7 episodes of. It was fun.

He's going to be in The Hobbit, too.

Nope, nope and not yet.

Rumor: JUSTICE LEAGUE Villain Revealed | Collider

well, it's on Orph...the battle of who's better will take place on movie screens, Darkseid vs Thanos...sort of.

 

[Dr. Naysay]

Darkseid.

 

[adgy-san]

Regardless of where you stand on that battle, I bet the movie version of Thanos will be better than the movie version of Darkseid.

 

[jerseydevil]

Said it before, I will say it again. Neck vs no-neck=No Brainer. Want to defeat Darkseid, come up behind him.

 

[orpheus]

Not having a neck doesn't prevent someone from being awesome.

mhihi:

Karen Berger Steps Down From DC Comics | Bleeding Cool Comic Book, Movies and TV News and Rumors

And the bell tolls for Vertigo. Sad news.

It is likely that any such departure will have involved a very large payoff indeed. Some have speculated that if Karen Berger did leave DC Comics, she has so much warmth owed to her by so many that she could with very little effort, set up a New York based publishing boutique of her very own, filed with very bankable writers and artists.

Wouldn't that be great?

Said it before, I will say it again. Neck vs no-neck=No Brainer. Want to defeat Darkseid, come up behind him.

You don't need a neck when you've got the power of the Omega beams mother humper. Now pardon me while I go give myself a wedgie.

 

[jerseydevil]

Please...make it a double.

I'm unfamiliar with most of the stuff on everyone's list (lots of indie), but seeing so many people mention Prophet is nice. It's the best sci-fi comic you'll read anytime soon!
