Watch Ghost Rider Spew Fire From Every Orifice


The first trailer for Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance has emerged and is full of flaming skulls, vomit, and urine. Nice to see they decided to class things up for the 2012 Nic Cage helmed Ghost Rider sequel / reboot. Still, looks like it could be fun.

Crisis of Infinite Episodes - The Iron Eater


When an orange chameleon alien hatched from a meteorite and started eating train tracks, I knew it was going to be a bad day. Even though the Iron Eater later impersonated the Man of Steel, Superman reigned triumphant and went to his old standby of hauling the creature back into space.

Ghost Rider Sequel Marketing Heats Up with New Poster


With the first trailer for the Ghost Rider sequel, subtitled Spirit of Vengeance, just hours away, we have been treated with a new teaser poster thanks to ComingSoon.net.I thinks its odd that this is getting made. The first did fair but was panned which means that it is unlikely that this second attempt, call it a reboot or a sequel, will do any better. Having said that, the first film did offer some amazing visuals and I expect that to be true for this one as well. Anyways, with 2012 delivering The Avengers and Batman, expect this one to be quickly forgotten,

Crisis of Infinite Episodes - The Return of Brainiac


Despite the title of this segment, this was in fact Brainiac's first onscreen appearance. Something wacky must have happened with the production / airing order of the episodes. Anyway, Brainiac didn't really do much except shrink Superman and Co and then turn invisible. Then Lois got antnapped. Then Brainiac came back and the gang got enlarged.

Aquaman's Rousing Song of Heroism


In one of the final episodes of Batman:The Brave and the Bold, titled Powerless! Aquaman was tasked with inspired a Captain Atom who without his powers felt useless.
