Captain America’s Top 5 Partners In Crime Posted: 20 Jul 2011 08:33 PM PDT If you have been a huge fan of Captain America like I am, then you should be excited about Marvel's newest blockbuster Captain America: The First Avenger. The movie looks like it will be the best Marvel movie yet, but we here at Geeks of Doom don't want to neglect Cap's comic counterpart. I mean without the comic, there would be no movie. So, here to spread some comic love, we're proud to present Captain America's Top 5 Partners In crime. Continue on to check out the list! Diamondback So we all know the best partners in life are the ones that challenge you and no partner changed Cap more than Rachel Leighton, aka Diamondback. As a founding member of the villain super-group The Serpent Society, Diamondback was initially called upon by her group to take down the good Captain, but his crime fighting ways got the best of her. Maybe it was his earnest demeanor or maybe it is because women love a man who wears an American Flag as a costume but she was smitten the first time they met. Diamondback eventually switched sides for Cap and they went on several missions together, proving once again that when you are patriotic, blond, and pumped full of government sanction drugs, the ladies will turn over a new leaf for you in a heartbeat.

First Look: ‘The Amazing Spider-Man’ Teaser Trailer Posted: 20 Jul 2011 06:51 PM PDT After a poor quality copy leaked online several days ago, and with the San Diego Comic-Con gearing up this week, Columbia Pictures decided to release the first official teaser trailer for their major 2012 summer release The Amazing Spider-Man. The past week has seen the movie getting a lot of exposure after going into production late last year, and in addition to the new trailer, the new issue of Entertainment Weekly devoted the cover and lead story of its new Comic-Con-themed issue to the Marc Webb-directed reboot. You can watch the much clearer version of the teaser trailer for The Amazing Spider–Man here below. The new film was announced early last year after efforts to get a fourth film in the franchise with original director Sam Raimi and stars Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst into production failed. Raimi wanted the Vulture to be the lead villain and couldn't meet the studio's desired summer 2012 release date so Sony handed him and his stars their walking papers and went to work on the reboot.

It's a town that lives in fear. [...]

Bryan Lee O’Malley’s Next Book Is ‘Seconds’ Posted: 20 Jul 2011 02:36 PM PDT We can expect a lot of comics news later this week as San Diego Comic-Con International descends upon us, but the smart individual will get the word out early, as Bryan Lee O'Malley, creator of Scott Pilgrim, has.
