Beware The Bat Chin
The folks at DC Entertainment snuck an exclusive image of Ben Affleck's Batman into the world by hiding it in plain sight at this year's San Diego Comic-Con.
The Dark (And Sometimes Silly) Art Of The ‘Batman: Arkham Knight’ Cape/Cowl/Create Exhibition
What if Batman had a fur-lined cape? Or had Scribblenauts on his cowl? Or was Rorschach?
All those questions and more were answered at the Cape/Cowl/Create Exhibition hosted by DC Entertainment, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and Vice magazine at Comic-Con International in San Diego. The whole thing was a promotion for the new Batman: Arkham Knight game, and used the cape and cowl designs from the game as a basis for the artwork. The concept resulted in some pretty cool stuff, and the opulence of the event was a vivid expression of just how big the Arkham games have become -- often, installations like these are reserved for big tech franchise announcements.
Angela Stars In New Ongoing Series From Gillen, Bennett, Jimenez And Hans

Al Ewing Talks Sam Wilson And “Season 2″ With ‘Captain America & The Mighty Avengers’
Mighty Avengers is getting a new #1 and a new title this November. At the Avengers NOW panel at San Diego Comic-Con on Friday, Marvel announced that the series will relaunch as Captain America & The Mighty Avengers -- with former Falcon Sam Wilson taking point as the new Captain America. That means a second title series for Wilson's Cap, and a second chance for readers to discover the book.
Al Ewing continues as writer, with former Captain America artist Luke Ross taking over as regular series artist. ComicsAlliance spoke to Ewing to find out why the book is relaunching, how he plans to handle Sam's promotion, and what it means to write the only Avengers book with a predominantly non-white team.

Watch The Ridiculous (In A Good Way) Trailer For Larime Taylor’s ‘A Voice In The Dark’
Larime Taylor is an extraordinary talent. He has a condition, Arthrogryposis , that requires him to hold a Cintiq pen in his mouth in order to draw. Working in this way he's managed to produce seven monthly issues of his Top Cow series A Voice In The Dark, and now the first collected volume of the series is available for purchase. In order to promote the collection, Taylor has released this enjoyably bombastic trailer, complete with a Don LaFontaine soundalike.
A Voice In The Dark is the story of Zoey Aarons, a college freshman who killed once and fears she'll kill again. Unfortunately for Zoe, she's picked a college in a town with the highest population of serial killers in America.
New Captain America’s First Adventure Will Drop As Digital Comic, ‘Captain America: Fear Him’

Sam gets his own book in All-New Captain America #1 in November, by Remender and Stuart Immonen.
