Posted on by

New viewers and long-time comic readers alike were shocked by the tremendous battle between Invincible and his father Omni-Man, from the Season 1 finale of the hit Prime Video animated series Invincible, based on the eponymous comic book series by Robert Kirkman, Cory Walker, and Ryan Ottley. A battle for the ages, it spanned the globe and ended with both characters beaten, bloodied and bruised. Now, that battle is captured in a new box set of action figures from Diamond Select Toys!

Exclusively available through Entertainment Earth, this two-pack features bloody, 1/10 scale action figures of the father and son, including newly sculpted battle-damaged parts. Each 7-inch figure features multiple points of articulation and is directly based on their animated counterpart. Both figures come packaged in a full-color window box with a fifth-panel door, and were digitally sculpted by acclaimed artist Chris Dahlberg.

The “Think, Mark!” box set, named for Omni-Man’s memorable line of dialogue, is up for pre-order now at Entertainment Earth, and will ship in Fall of 2024. Reserve yours today!

Criminal #1

Will the beloved comic series Criminal be the next hit? Prime Video has given a series order to Criminal. It’s based on the award winning comic series by Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips. Brubaker penned the pilot script. The series will be showrun by Jordan Harper.

Criminal is being produced by Amazon MGM Studios and has been fast tracked for development which began in 2023. Things were delayed due to the WGA strike.

Criminal is an amazing series of comics which each stand on their own but also connect in some ways too. While you can pick up and enjoy any volume, if you’ve read them all, you appreciate it all more. It’s described by Brubaker as an “interweaving saga of several generations of families tied together by crimes and murders of the past.”

Brubaker and Harper will executive produce along with Phillips, Sarah Carbiener, Phillip Barnett, and Legendary Television.

Batman: Caped Crusader moves to Amazon with a two-season order

Posted on by

Previously developed for HBO Max, Batman: Caped Crusader has found a new home at Amazon. The animated series from J.J. Abrams, Matt Reeves, and Bruce Timm has been given a two season order.

The show was put on hold by Warner Bros. Discovery in August, about a year after it was ordered straight to series. At that time, they stated it was looking for a new home. After a series of cost cutting, Warner Bros. Discovery has pivoted in recent months selling projects to “rival” streaming services.

Batman: Caped Crusader was said to be a follow up in spirit to the classic 1990s Batman: The Animated Series which Timm worked on. Ed Brubaker was announced Timm’s right hand for the 10-episode first season. It was spotlighted at the 2021 DC Fandome which featured some of the individuals behind it discussing what we can expect.

The series joins other high profile animated series at Amazon including Invincible, The Legend of Vox Machina, and The Boys Presents: Diabolical.
