QUENTIN TARANTINO COMES TO DYNAMITE! THE SEQUEL TO DJANGO UNCHAINED, AS DJANGO MEETS ZORRO!

Direct from Dynamite...

QUENTIN TARANTINO COMES TO DYNAMITE!

THE SEQUEL TO DJANGO UNCHAINED, AS DJANGO MEETS ZORRO!

The acclaimed filmmaker Quentin Tarantino comes to Dynamite for the first time with a sequel to his film Django Unchained, as Django meets the legendary Zorro!  Known for his incredible films that are uniquely "Quentin", such as Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill, Django/Zorro will stand-out from every comic book coming out this year.  Django/Zorro is co-plotted by Quentin Tarantino and will be co-plotted and written by comic book legend by Matt Wagner (Mage, Grendel, The Shadow, Zorro).  Reginald Hudlin, writer of the Eisner Award nominated Django Unchained screenplay adaptation and a producer of the Django Unchained film, will be working closely with Quentin and Matt as the editor of Django/Zorro! Stay tuned for information on Django/Zorro, set for release later this year from Dynamite Entertainment and DC Entertainment!

"I'm very very excited about both this story and the opportunity to work with Matt.  It was reading his Zorro stories that convinced me what a good idea it was to join these two icons together.  And the story idea we came up with is thrilling, and I think will be an exciting new chapter for both characters." - Quentin Tarantino

"This project is an absolute thrill," adds writer Matt Wagner!  "When Quentin and I first met, it felt like we'd known each other for years.  The give-and-take energy of our initial story sessions was just incredible!  It's a particular buzz to be writing Zorro once again…and especially to team him up with the magnetic lead character from Quentin's most straight-up heroic movie, Django Unchained!  The Wild West is never gonna be the same once these two come to town!"

"This series is the first time Quentin Tarantino explored the continuing adventures of one of the characters from his films," states Django Producer Reggie Hudlin.  "That he would do it in a comic book demonstrates his love and appreciation of the medium.  Quentin is not just a comic collector - he's got a spinner rack in his house!"

"First and foremost, this is a dream project to have both Quentin and Matt, both master storytellers, collaborate for the first time by bringing the scope of cinema to the comics medium," says Dynamite CEO/Publisher Nick Barrucci.  "I can't express how happy I am to co-publish this series with DC Entertainment, and release what is sure to be THE Cross-Over event of the year."

"We are excited to see that our Eisner-nominated Django Unchained movie adaptation has inspired Django's appearance with Zorro and are pleased to be part of what is sure to be a highly-anticipated crossover event," stated Hank Kanalz, Senior Vice President of Vertigo and Integrated Publishing, DC Entertainment.

"In previous adventures, Zorro's rich history has teamed him up with the Shadow and with the Lone Ranger, as well as many other iconic characters," said John Gertz, CEO of Zorro Productions, Inc., "But this will be his greatest meeting yet!  Django and Zorro are the perfect team, and so are Quentin Tarantino and Matt Wagner.  It is an honor for us to work with these two masters of their craft."

"Matt has worked hand-in-hand with Quentin to put together a meeting the likes of which comics have never seen." - Joseph Rybandt, Dynamite Senior Editor

"Django Unchained captures the same spirit as Zorro -- namely, that the bad guys get what's coming to them," says Keith Davidsen, Marketing Manager of Dynamite Entertainment.  "We're a culture that has thrilled to, and thrived on, the swift and brutal justice of the vigilante.  In the deft hands of mind-blowing filmmaker Quentin Tarantino and master storyteller Matt Wagner, the explosive comic book pairing of these two Western icons will surely satisfy that most guilty pleasure."

Man of Steel Panel at San Diego Comic Con 2012

Superman fans would finally have their time in Hall H during the Warner Brothers/ Legendary Pictures panel at San Diego Comic Con 2012. We would finally see the first footage in Man of Steel for the first time! The Man of Steel panel would follow Pacific Rim and Godzilla. 

This is what we would see on the big screen and the cheers were loud. 

Chris Hardwick would soon introduce Zack Snyder (300, Watchmen, Sucker Punch) to the stage, who is directing Man of Steel. 

Zack Snyder appeared to be very nervous by himself on the stage as he talked about Man of Steel. He was very quiet and kept his answers very quick. He would soon break out of his nervousness as his next guest would be introduced. 

Henry Cavill (Clark Kent/ Superman) would soon join the stage, and the man responsible for playing one of the greatest superheroes, would be welcomed by 6500 attendees. 

Zack Snyder would give us a synopsis on Man of Steel and for the first time, a World Premiere of footage from Man of Steel. 

Again, I wish we could record the footage, but under strict rules, we are not permitted.What we would see was awesome. It began with narrating and seeing a young boy. We would then see a clip of a young boy pulling up a bus in water and hearing a woman mentioning that she saw Clark pull that bus up. There would be quick clips, in between and we see Clark Kent in a full beard in what appears a small town in the winter. We would hear Kevin Costner (Jonathon Kent) as he is talking to Clark Kent about who he is. The audience would soon see what they hoped for, Superman. We finally got to see him in action with a scene of him flying straight in the air. We did not know what to expect in the footage, but we would see Superman in action fighting someone who has hit him and causing him to fly back into what appeared to be a bank vault and smashing it in during the impact. The footage shown looked very promising and I knew this would be much better than Superman Returns (2006). 

Following the footage, a quick Q&A would be open to the audience. Zack Snyder and Henry Cavill have to share with the audience how honored they were to be part of an iconic character in the DC Universe. Henry Cavill would share his excitement in knowing how incredible it was to be that person that holds that infamous symbol on his chest. A couple of guests would bring great laughter to the crowd with their questions. One gentleman would be so nervous up there and showed great emotion in tears in how excited he was. It even got Chris Hardwick to come running down to give him a hug. 

One young lady would even be so brave to ask for Henry Cavill's name tag. He did say yes and he met her at the stage where he delivered it to her. Of course, the audience was not pleased and actually booed her for asking, but I give her credit because she now owns his name tag from the panel. 

Overall, the footage and panel were terrific and has me ready to see Man of Steel next June 14, 2013.

This is the official Man of Steel teaser trailer that was released during Dark Knight Rises.
