If you’ve read Superman #1, you might have noticed a big change to a huge part of Superman history: the Fortress of Solitude has a new home. The events of the recent Man of Steel miniseries saw a number of world-shattering changes to Clark Kent’s legacy. Lois Lane and Jon Kent went off with Jor-El on an adventure to explore the universe, the last bastion of Krypton, Kandor, was destroyed, the hero’s arctic hideaway was razed to the ground — and these are just part of the big changes Superman experienced. RELATED INTERVIEW: Bendis Talks Superman’s [SPOILER], Batman’s Big Mystery & His DC Imprint It’s only fitting, then, that Brian Michael Bendis’ and Ivan Reis’ Superman #1 would “reboot” the Fortress in a sense, moving it from its sub-zero birthplace to the middle of the Bermuda Triangle. But why the change? “We wanted something that was even more like wh

Oftentimes when superheroes quarrel, words simply won’t do. Such would appear to be the case in an art teaser revealed by the series’ writer, Tom King.

Celebrated writer and creator of iconic characters for Marvel and DC Comics, David Michelinie, clarified what it actually means to create a comic character, and why certain writers and artists receive the “co-credit” distinction. One character he is credited with creating, or co-creating, is Scott Lang. One character fans are quick to question Michelinie about are the creative rights for Scott Lang. The dual identity of Ant-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Scott Lang’s first appearance came in Tales to Astonish #35 in 1962.

Canadian players of the Magic: The Gathering trading card game will soon have to face a hike in prices, consequence of an ongoing trade dispute with the United States, reports the CBC. A retaliatory tariff, introduced on July 1, imposes a 10-percent fee on playing cards, including collectible card games such as Magic, Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh!. RELATED: Magic: The Gathering Bans Felidar Guardian from Standard Play Although the tariff is primarily targeting major suppliers of poker decks — those used for ordinary card games and consumed in vast quantities at casinos — it also applies to other types of cards published for trading and gaming. Because the market for Magic cards operates differently than that of standard playing cards, the effects may be felt on a more personal level for Magic players and stores that  specialize in trading card games. Magic: The Gathering has been produced by the Seattle-based company Wi

Comics legend Stan Lee has broken his silence on the death of revered Marvel Comics artist and Spider-Man co-creator Steve Ditko, who died June 29 at 90 years old. Lee posted a video to his Twitter page expounding on Ditko and the impact he made in the comic book industry and the entertainment industry as a whole.

Steve was certainly one of the most important creators in the comic book business and his talent was indescribable,” Lee said. Lee said that in his many years of working with Ditko, he was “always impressed” with how he worked and utilized pictures, scenes, and movement. “He told a story like a fine movie director would,” he said, adding that Ditko will be “very greately missed by the public, by his fans.” “I’m sure there will be a lot

I’m particularly excited that you’re collaborating with artist Pepe Larraz who did fantastic work on another recent big team event, Avengers No Surrender. What’s it like working with Pepe? Oh, man. Pepe is great. Just an amazing collaborator. I’ve been a fan of his work for some time now, so getting the chance to work with him is incredibly exciting for me. This series demands some pretty big action pieces; tender emotional scenes; horrific moments; and scenes that may seem to be initially mundane and Pepe handles them all with equal verve. I never thought a page of someone shopping for milk could look so beautiful, but it does. Similarly, there’s a scene with one of our Original Five being tortured that Pepe finds a way to sell without having to cheap out on making it grotesque. It’s an oddly meditative page.

Instead, writer Dan Slott plans to introduce a new headquarters for Marvel’s First Family. “There will be a new place where the FF will setup shop,” Slott told Entertainment Weekly. “It’s something you haven’t seen before in an FF comic, but the minute you see it, it’s gonna feel the most FF-ish thing in the world.” RELATED: First Fantastic Four #1 Preview Teases Reed & Sue’s Big Return One major reason for the location change has to do with Spider-Man’s alter ego, Peter Parker, purchasing the Baxter Building in Amazing Spider-Man.
