NYCC 2024: Peacemaker Presents: The Vigilante/Eagly Double Feature from Tim Seeley, Mitch Gerads, Rex Ogle and Matteo Lolli, with James Gunn

Posted on by

At New York Comic Con, DC announced a new five-issue comic book series Peacemaker Presents: The Vigilante/Eagly Double Feature! by creators Tim Seeley and Mitch Gerads (on the Vigilante story), and Rex Ogle and Matteo Lolli (on the Eagly story), with James Gunn as story consultant. Set between seasons one and two of Max Original series Peacemaker, the comic will give fans and readers a taste of where the hit television show will go in 2025…with two of its fan-favorite characters!

In DC’s upcoming Peacemaker Presents: The Vigilante/Eagly Double Feature! comic book series, Peacemaker “stars” in two in-world stories with his two best friends—Eagly and Vigilante! Each storyline picks up right where the Max Original show ended…with Peacemaker missing!

In the Eagly story, we see exactly where Christopher has been: in the Alaska outdoors to get some fresh air, with his real best bird-friend, Eagly. On their small-plane trip, they and the other passengers are gassed and knocked out. When they wake up, they find themselves being hunted for sport by a dangerous group of Super-Villains…a far cry from the peaceful vacation Chris had in mind! But little do the hunters know they’ve bitten off more than they can chew…

In the Vigilante story, Adrian goes to Peacemaker’s house for beers and blowing things up, but finds Chris and Eagly gone. Immediately assuming they’ve been kidnapped or worse, Vigilante suits up for a vengeance-filled spree against the local criminal community. Meanwhile, Chris and Eagly are on their bromantic vacation to Alaska, with Chris having completely forgotten to ask Adrian to go…or even tell him he was gone!

Peacemaker Presents: The Vigilante/Eagly Double Feature!, featuring a Vigilante story by writer Tim Seeley, artist Mitch Gerads, and letterer Pat Brosseau, and an Eagly story by writer Rex Ogle, artist Matteo Lolli, colorist John Kalisz, and letterer Pat Brosseau, with overall story consultant James Gunn, will publish beginning in March with main covers by Gerads. Peacemaker Presents: The Vigilante/Eagly Double Feature! will carry DC’s Ages 17+ content descriptor (for mature readers).

SDCC 2024: A Classic DC Logo Returns

Posted on by

DC has returned to a classic logo for DC Studios, comics, toys, and more. The “bullet” logo for DC is back with a bit of an update. The logo originally designed by Milton Glaser, will be used across the board, debuting in October. The logo has replaced the previous one of social networks for DC as a whole but the most recent logo is still present on the DC website. The beloved logo was the seventh logo for the comic publisher and used from 1977 to 2005.

Co-head of DC Studios James Gunn looks to be a driver of the change. A motion graphic that will appear before movies was also debuted during at panel at San Diego Comic-Con.

Green Lantern

Chris Mundy and Damon Lindelof are join Lanterns, the Green Lantern project from DC Studios. They join Tom King and the trio have put together the pilot script and bible for the series.

What’s intriguing about the announcement, which was made on social media, was James Gunn‘s use of images from Green Lantern: Earth One. Gunn has been very particular on the images chosen so this may give hints as to what to expect. Then again, it could just be good art.

Chris Mundy is a producer and writer who has worked on series such as True Detective, Ozark, Hell on Wheels, Cold Case, Criminal Minds, and more.

Damon Lindelof is a writer and producer who is known for Watchmen, Stark Trek Into Darkness, Prometheus, Lost, 2009’s Star Trek, and more. He has also written comics.

James Gunn releases a tease of David Corenswet as Superman

Posted on by

We’ve gotten a better look at David Corenswet as Superman in James Gunn‘s upcoming reboot, Superman. The suit is a bit darker than previous iterations but moves away from the design from Zack Snyder’s take. One noticeable change is the lack of molded muscle, giving a more natural suit that’s much more reminiscent of Christopher Reeve’s suit.

Superman will be released on July 11, 2025.
