Heading out to Seattle this weekend to attend Emerald City Comicon? Well, here’s Fletcher Chu-Fong, DC’s Director of Events, with the full rundown of DC’s panels.

Hello DC Nation!

DC’s Director of Events, Fletcher Chu-Fong, here. After a long off-season of snow shoveling and frigid cold weather here in New York, I am sooo eager to get back on the convention circuit! We kick off the 2011 circuit with Emerald City Comicon (March 4-6) in Seattle, WA.

Emerald City Comicon is one of my favorite shows to attend. Convention Director Jim Demonakos and his team run a fabulous con and are great to work with. They gear all their efforts to the ultimate goal: pleasing the fans. Whether it is getting A-List talent or attracting top publishers, they aim to keep everyone happy–quite successfully, in my opinion!

DC Comics plans to keep that happiness going with lots of freebies, great panels and in-booth portfolio reviews. Mark Chiarello, VP Art Direction & Design, will be on hand at the DC booth on Friday (4-6pm) and Saturday (3-5pm) to look at your portfolios and give you an honest assessment.

We’ll also have lots of panels off the show floor as well, including the first Bob Harras-run DC panel, DC NATION, on Friday. Here is a full list of panels that are not to be missed!

Superboy can’t seem to shake the feeling that something’s amiss in Smallville, and whether he may be the cause of it. Is it just teen angst, or is something deeper really going on? Conner’s got to stay focused though, if he hopes to beat Kid Flash in a race around the world. Who will win?

Find out in SUPERBOY #5, on sale March 9!

After a strange cloud of glowing white bats save them from a sudden attack by Man-Bat, Batman and Robin begin to unravel the mystery behind Gotham’s fallen angel. But how is Man-Bat involved, and what did he mean when he said “Stay away from the light?”

Answers begin to come to light in BATMAN AND ROBIN #21, the second part of “Dark Knight vs. White Knight” by Peter J. Tomasi and Patrick Gleason, in stores March 9.

DIANE LANE CAST AS MARTHA KENT IN WARNER BROS. PICTURES’
AND LEGENDARY PICTURES’ NEW SUPERMAN MOVIE

BURBANK, CA, March 2, 2011 – Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures announced today that Oscar®-nominated actress Diane Lane will play Martha Kent, the only mother Clark Kent has ever known, in the new Superman movie to be directed by Zack Snyder.

Snyder stated, “This was a very important piece of casting for me because Martha Kent is the woman whose values helped shape the man we know as Superman. We are thrilled to have Diane in the role because she can convey the wisdom and the wonder of a woman whose son has powers beyond her imagination.”
Lane will star with Henry Cavill, who was recently announced as the new Clark Kent/Superman.

Lane earned an Academy Award® nomination for her performance in the 2002 drama “Unfaithful.” She most recently starred in the family hit “Secretariat.” She next stars in the HBO feature “Cinema Verite,” opposite Tim Robbins and James Gandolfini. Lane’s long list of film credits also includes “Nights in Rodanthe,” “Hollywoodland,” “Must Love Dogs,” “Under the Tuscan Sun,” “Perfect Storm,” “My Dog Skip,” “Chaplin,” “The Cotton Club” and “A Little Romance,” to name only a portion.

Charles Roven, Emma Thomas, Christopher Nolan and Deborah Snyder are the producers of the film. The screenplay is being written by David S. Goyer based on a story by Goyer and Nolan. Thomas Tull and Lloyd Phillips are serving as executive producers.

Slated for release in December 2012, the new Superman movie will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.
