Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* so Frank Miller's Holy Terror, a project that started out as a Batman Vs. Osama Bin Laden story, will see publication this Fall at the Bob Schreck-led imprint Legendary. This would put it squarely in the 9/11 10-year anniversary remembrances.

* not comics: in what is good news for no one not receiving residuals of some sort, they're apparently doing a re-release of the Matt Salinger Captain America film around the same time Marvel's new version reaches the world's multiplexes. The two things I remember from that movie is that Captain America seemed compelled to steal cars, and there was a strange environmental message tacked onto the end. Also, that I watched it on Christmas while eating cold ravioli from a thermos like the Fonz.

* over at The Panelists, a quote from Michael Ramirez about the Seattle Times stop on his potential employment tour.

* the writers at Savage Critics begins a three-part exploration of this summer's mainstream comics event series, including pulling out a great photo of Marvel creators.

* over at Irrelevant Comics, Yan Basque talks about not buying any new serialized comics when DC makes good on their their same-day digital relaunch this September. It's an interesting reason: Basque feels that the companies do too poor a job in meeting basic obligations creative teams and storylines, and buying trades or even old comics is a way to negotiate being screwed over on a regular basis.

* finally, Bob Temuka writes on why he's positive about the changes at DC Comics, even though he plans on buying exactly one of their 52 new series.
