Around the Tubes – Off to Gen Con!

It feels like San Diego Comic-Con was just a few days ago, but already another convention is upon us, Gen Con!  It’ll be days of gaming and hanging out with friends. Wee!  While I do my happy dance, here’s the news you might have missed.

Around the Blogs:

Bleeding Cool – The Flash Movie Has “A Solid Script”, Warners Still Want A Justice League Film – Pretty sure the Green Lantern script was “solid” as well.

Bleeding Cool – Plans For The Future Of The Green Lantern Film Franchise – Mhmm, fool me twice.

Bleeding Cool – Fear Of A Black Spider-Man – Rich, it’s “Fear of a Black Planet,” which was a fantastic album. But seriously, good to know it’s just not comic retailers who make racist comments.
