Fox recently announced that in 2013, Malachai and Ethan Nicolle’s popular webcomic “Axe Cop” will become a TV series for the network’s upcoming late night Saturday night animation block. Nick Weidenfeld, who’s the head of Animation Domination HD, stated:
“It’s rare that you find something that feels both so new in its tone and content but also so fully formed,” he told the Hollywood Reporter, adding “To me it was very clear that ‘Axe Cop’ has potential to be a larger franchise.”
Fox is in the process of seeking a writer to adapt the series into six 15-minute pilot episodes, and hopes to launch the Saturday night Animation Domination block in the first quarter of 2013.

We only have to wait a few more weeks to see the Second Wave of the DC New 52, but if the wait is killing you, then here’s something to tide you over. DC has given fans these ”leaked” images of the six new series: Batman Incorporated, Dial H, Earth 2, G.I. Combat, The Ravagers and Worlds’ Finest. I don’t know about you, but I’ll be lining up to buy these when they finally hit stores.
Check out more images after the jump….

BuzzFeed visited the DC Comics offices recently and received an early look at pages of art from the upcoming Before Watchmen series in a fancy three ring binder. It looks like the binder includes the script, but they only shared images showcasing character designs.
Regardless of how you feel about these Before Watchmen prequels, it’s hard to deny that the art is worth taking a second look at. I mean, the likes of Darwyn Cooke, Amanda Conner, Jae Lee, Joe Kubert and more fill out the talented roster pencilling the pages. Cooke and Conner in particular are in my top ten favorite comic book artists, and I’ll probably pick up at least the first issue of anything they work on including Watchmen.
See more character art after the break.

I remember the days when Shia LaBeouf was just the cute and obnoxious brother on Even Stevens. Those were good times. Besides starring in films, it appears he’s also making comics. In fact, he made a surprise appearance at C2E2 in Chicago last weekend signing his work. Yeah, you read that right.

Mario thinks it would be hilarious to jump into Luigi’s pile of neatly raked leaves for fun. However, he apparently forgets what leaves do to him…
