If you need a movie or two or ten to play on your PS3 to prove it does Blu-ray movies well, this is a great day to buy a few.

The Warner Bros. online store has a Cyber Monday sale going on right now that feels more like a Clearing House than a Holiday sale.

Today (Monday, November 29, 2010) only you can get many DVDs and Blu-rays for about 60% off…

This year, Hallmark’s main video game themed ornament is Prince Dastan from Disney’s Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. Measuring 4 in. tall and retailing for $14.95 (ornament # QXD2152), it features the likeness of a leaping Jake Gyllenhaal as “The Prince.” The film is also being released on DVD, Blu-ray and Digital Download September 14, 2010.

The other ornament, which I have yet to see in a store, is the Tron Lightcycle ornament (#QXD1153), also based on a upcoming Disney film (Tron: Legacy, December 17, 2010). This one is priced $16.95, is 4.5 in. wide and lights up (so it requires batteries, which are often included in Hallmark’s fancier ornaments). This definitely looks to be the more impressive of this year’s two game-related ornaments.

Sony Online Entertainment has announced that Mark Hamill and Kevin Conroy will once again lend their voices to the Joker and Batman, this time in the upcoming MMO DC Universe Online. They’re the frontliners of an all-star voice cast, which includes Adam Baldwin and Gina Torres from Firefly.

It’s your friendly annual reminder to go out and visit your friendly neighborhood comic shop and pick up some free comics.

Free Comic Book Day is an annual event that takes place the first Saturday in May (May 1, 2010) to help generate – or regenerate – interest in comic books.

A lot of the big comic companies release titles for the day and, depending on your shop, you can often find a few decent indies as well. Some even dump out those quarter boxes simply to get them out of the store.

Art has always been a subjective thing. Some paintings may stir strong feelings on certain people while others squint their eyes and tilt their heads trying to make out what’s on the canvas. While to some these paintings are totally bizarre, others pay amazing sums of money for them.

When we hear of art auctions where hundreds of thousands of dollars, or even millions are offered we tend to think of paintings or sculptures but now there is another form of art that has reached these amazing sums. Once considered cheap entertainment for children, comic books have now reached the status of works of art, and now can compete with Picasso or Van Gogh for real estate in a gallery or the living room of some millionaire.

A couple of vintage comic books were sold for one million USD this week. Oh, and I mean one million each. A copy of Action Comics No. 1 from 1938 – Superman’s first appearance – was sold for one million on Monday, and then on Thursday a copy of Detective Comics No. 27 from 1939 – Batman’s first appearance – was sold for $1,075,500 USD…

Celebrating Supe’s 50th anniversary, Ruby-Spears Productions miraculously got the rights to create Superman the animated TV series.

It exists in an awkward gap between the kitche-y late-1970s-to-early-1980s Super Friends cartoons and the slick 1990s Superman: The Animated series. It’s a series that only those who could bear the live-action Superboy TV series recall.

Superman goes far to embrace elements from print, film and even previous animated series, sometimes seeming disjointed but, by the time you get through all 13 episodes, becomes appropriate.

Reviews for Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe have been largely positive (apparently the idea of sending Scorpion out there to duel with Superman was a successful one) as sites including from Giant Bomb to IGN have largely praised the franchise’s resurrected offering.

This praise also translated to decent sales, as 1UP reports, the game sold 2 million copies worldwide upon release. While those figures are not expected to set the world on fire, they are enough to consider a follow-up effort…

While dashing through my nearest Target store, I passed a rack stacked with tins in the underwear, er, pajamas section.

The tins, priced at $9.99 each, include a set of colorful men’s boxers that reflect the packaging: a Wii (as in the console), a red Guitar Hero guitar, black Guitar Hero speaker, an Xbox 360 controller, Super Mario Bros. 3 with Mario, the Superman logo and the Batman logo.

I did find a few listed on the Kohl’s and Sears web sites…

Ed Boon, the creator of Mortal Kombat, and Jimmy Palmiotti, a DC Comics’ writer, held a panel discussion July 26, 2008, at Comic-Con 2008, where they discussed Mortal Kombat Vs. DC Universe and revealed more about the game.

At the con they said that this game will be a very unique experience for fans of both DC and Mortal Kombat which will allow you to see just what it would be like to fight Sub-Zero as Batman.

“For every [Mortal Kombat] game we do, we like to add something dramatic, something fresh,” Boon said about the new game. The elements he is most excited about are the new “kombat” modes added to the game: close combat and free fall…

In what can best be describe as, a event that can only take place in a video game, Midway released the surprising video of a game that very few people could have ever thought possible, that being, DC comics vs Mortal Kombat.

In a teaser trailer released by Midway Games, which states that the fighting game will be out sometime this fall, we get to see two of DC and Mortal Kombat’s iconic anti-heroes battling one another in a graveyard – those heroes being Batman and Subzero.

There is no clear advantage seen between the two heroes, as both give as well as they take, much like in the 1990’s arcade classic Marvel vs Capcom, fans will get the chance to pit their favorite DC and Mortal Kombat characters in a battle to the death.
