A New Superhero Comic With A New Point Of View: Raising Dion (Trailer)
Super dope! A comic taking another angle on the superhero saga. Sure, we have seen coming of age stories for superheroes (usually comic/TV/movie creators backtracking their characters’ stories for new content)… but what about Black superheroes (much fewer)… Black kid superheroes (what, like Cyborg off Teen Titans)… How about a widowed Black mom raising her kid, who happens to be gifted with super powers???
Imagine Superman, but from Martha Kent’s point of view. Or imagine Spiderman, but from Aunt May’s point of view. This is a superhero story, but from the parent’s point of view. But unlike her son, she doesn’t have any powers.
Sounds incredible, right? Can’t wait for the first issue, right? Well… GO! Get a FREE downloadable copy (or even better, you can BUY a physical copy to support the production) at www.raisingdion.com.

What’s Coming When “Fantastic Four” Hits Theaters? DOOM! (Trailer)
Okay, so you saw us post on the heat DC has coming to blow up big screens in 2016 (like ‘Suicide Squad’ and ‘Batman vs Superman’ recently but… Marvel ain’t done killing this year yet – with “Ant Man” set for next and this blazing “Fantastic Four” reboot (first trailer here).
This comic-turned-movie war is a win-win for all action movie go-ers. And this version of Dr. Doom the Four has to face…RAW!!! Watch.
Suicide Squad (Comic-Con Trailer)
Dude! August 5, 2016 like whoa!! DC will have the theaters jumping with this “Suicide Squad” movie.
Say what? Sure it’s over a year from now, but time will fly; and it will be worth the wait. Just check out the trailer above. It starts with dark ops orchestrator, administrator and government nightmare-maker Amanda Waller (played by Viola Davis) talking with [gotta be] General Eiling about giving the worst of the worst super-villains one last shot at redemption… her way… going on her missions. It’s what she does (Google her DC character; she’s a BEAST and some other b-words hahaha). Of course, Batman and Superman wouldn’t be happy with her moves; but they never are (seriously, Google her).
Well… they have their own thing popping in 2016 though. Whew! DC is going HARD in the theaters next year, huh?
Then peep the cast (see Will Smith in there?) picked to play these degenerates-turned-sorta-heroes.

So fellas have you ever been chilling with a lady and it looks like she is giving the signal to get the bedroom gymnastics going on but you were completely wrong?

Adding some spice and eye candy to the video Laila Odom guest stars as the honey giving off the sexy signals.

When the signals get crossed, the script gets flipped.
APB: “Artists Against Police Brutality” Comic Book (Artwork)
A comic book titled APB: “Against Police Brutality” detailing Police Brutality is being put together by Rosarium Publishing. Â Submissions for the project are still being submitted but Artist Ashley A. Woods has been released and it is a telling much needed piece. Â The Artist/Illustrator hailing from Chicago created a touching memoriam piece that features Eric Garner, Michael Brown, Tamir Rice, Aiyana Stanley-Jones, Amadou Diallo, Cary Ball Jr, John Crawford, Miriam Carey, Rekia Boyd, Tanisha Anderson, and Yvette Smith. Â Sadly all of these Black men and women were killed by Police officers and with all of the unrest going on in Baltimore this looks like something that will continue.

President Obama Calls On ‘Luther’, The Anger Translator, During Speech at WHCA Dinner (Video)
“Hold on to your lily white butts!”– ‘Luther’ The Anger Translator
This is classic!! America’s media pretty much has carte blanche in matters of merrymaking at The President’s expense. But imagine a comedy schtick that the President is actually in on! President Obama makes humorous remarks at the annual dinner of the White House Correspondents’ Association (WHCA) every year, sure. But this year, he “borrows” Keegan Michael Key (of Comedy Central’s “Key and Peele”) to do his ‘Luther’ thing for some over-the-top hilarity. Journalists, politicians and celebrities at the dinner seemed to cheer as Key steps to the podium about as loud as you’d expect they would for The President. The routine the duo does is subdued (sorta) but what Key and President Obama pull off here… Well, this ought to show up in somebody’s history book! Enjoy.

Batman v. Superman: The Dawn Of Justice (Teaser Trailer)
It appears from the title alone that this upcoming Batman Vs. Superman: Dawn Of Justice film is just the beginning of DC Comics attempts to bring the ‘Justice League’ all together on the big screen. The title alone gives you the hint because “Dawn Of Justice”…. suggests…. “Dawn Of The Justice League’ with Aquaman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, Green Lantern, & more heroes. Right now DC Comics is celebrating their 75th anniversary & all these films are kicking off at the right time for them. The ‘Justice League’ movie is rumored to come in 2017. Maybe I’m just getting ahead of myself, but I don’t believe I’m too far off with that opinion. In the meantime, just sit patiently until April 20, 2016 for when this new blockbuster ‘Batman Vs. Superman: The Dawn Of Justice’ film hits theaters.
Fantastic Four (Teaser Trailer)
Marvel goes for another reboot. The Spiderman redux went pretty good. How about this? FANTASTIC FOUR!! No Jessica Alba in sight, but it still might be good. Haaaa!!
A contemporary re-imagining of Marvel’s original and longest-running superhero team, centers on four young outsiders who teleport to an alternate and dangerous universe, which alters their physical form in shocking ways. Their lives irrevocably upended, the team must learn to harness their daunting new abilities and work together to save Earth from a former friend turned enemy.
Actually, it looks interesting… And is… is that Michael B. Jordan… a member of the Four? FANTASTIC! Now you have to watch the trailer (above).
