Robotech creators seek to kickstart "Robotech Academy"



Those who grew up in the 80's will know about Harmony Gold's popular mecha science-fiction series "Robotech", and the legacy it carved out for a generation of fans and viewers. Combining three very different anime shows and weaving together a continuity that is fondly remembered, the show expanded beyond borders and went on to broach other mediums, which include books, role-playing games, and even video games where much of the focus was on the popular first generation, otherwise known as the "Macross Saga".



Now, the people behind the show and a new generation of talents are pooling their efforts together to see a new chapter in the series unfold, as originally conceived by the creator of the show, the late Carl Macek. Through Kickstarter, the team is seeking to get  a new Robotech series running called "Robotech Academy", and it's set near the end of the second generation and around the time of The Sentinels era.



With Tommy Yune doing new mecha designs and featuring a tale exploring new characters, this may be the best thing Robotech fans could ask for, and will only see the light of day with a successful Kickstarter campaign!

Arrow: Devon Aoki as Katana, Peter Stormare as Vertigo, and "Big Things" teased to come on SDCC '14


Big things are coming for the upcoming third season of Arrow, and it involves two DC Comics Characters, a hero and a villain, who will be well-known to fans of a certain Dark Knight hero and the emerald archer himself, as well as star Stephen Amell teasing away for the upcoming San Diego Comic-Con 2014.


After introducing a ton of characters in the show and opening the floodgates for what can very well be a DC TV Universe that interconnects with future shows (like that of The Flash), Season 3 of Arrow plans to introduce a well-known heroic face in the form of Katana, who will be played by Devon Aoki. Those who've read the comics know she is associated with Batman, and has served as a member of The Outsiders as well as the Birds of Prey. Aoki previously had roles in the likes of Frank Miller's Sin City, as well as playing Kasumi for the live-action film adaptation of the popular Tecmo fighting game franchise, Dead or Alive. For more information, visit the source post at Coming Soon.



The next bit of interesting casting news is that actor Peter Stormare, who played Lucifer in Keanu Reeve's 2005 film Constantine, has been cast as Werner Zytle, aka THE Count Vertigo. This is not to be confused with "The Count", whom Oliver eliminated in Season 2 and who was played by Seth Gabel. This version of Vertigo will be closely associated with his comic book counterpart, and should be an interesting new enemy for The Arrow to face in the new season. For more information, visit the source post at Comic Book.com.




Finally, Stephen Amell has promised that "Big Things" will come in SDCC '14, but teased nothing more than that he will be there for the Arrow Panel discussion on Friday via his official Facebook page. For more info, visit the source post at Comic Book.com.

Arrow is slated to return with Season 3 on October 8 on The CW.

All Things Batman: New DC Bat-Titles, Batman: Eternal Recap, and Batman Day


July has arrived, and the 4th is just around the corner for the US to celebrate Independence Day. But the month also belongs to a certain Dark Knight, who celebrates 75 years of his existence and DC Entertainment has a long list of things to do and commemorate the Caped Crusader within this year!


First up, Two New Batman titles for The New 52 have been announced for October - Arkham Manor and Gotham Academy. The former of course sounds like it'll spiral right out of the events of the ongoing Batman: Eternal, which already has brought in some significant changes to the world of The Dark Knight, and it isn't even finished yet. The cover alone to Batman #28 before and now issue #1 of the new series is something that already hints on what "Arkham Manor" truly means, while Gotham Academy will focus on familiar characters and the past of the infamous city. More info can be read on the source post at Newsarama and Entertainment Weekly.

For those who have yet to catch up on Batman: Eternal, DC All Access has released a video on
