Nerdy News for Wednesday, May 4, 2005

This preview of the new Fantastic Four team has confirmed what I originally thought: the artwork by Mike Mckone is going to be gorgeous, while the script by JMS will be really talky. Personally I am hoping for martial problems and an orgasmic sex scene between Sue and Namor later in JMS' run. DC's Villians United series looks to be an awful lot of fun, as seen in this interview with Gail Simone. One of my favorite series in the DC Implosion days was Secret Society of Super-Villains, which this title is trying to update for the modern era. Looks like hell has frozen, because they really are making a DOOM movie and Gamespy has some pics and details of the Rock gunning down monsters. TIVO alert: Will Ferrell returns to Saturday Night Live this weekend, and Queens of the Stone Age will be there, too. If you go to the game store this week you can pick up three titles: Forza Motorsport (XBox), Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, and PSP Hot Shots Golf Open Tee. Nuff said.
