News: Green Arrow To Have His Own Show

Though this piece of news is dated days ago, I just found it online today and I want to share it with the DC Universe fans who visit theOtaku.com on a regular basis. According to Entertainment Weekly, DC Universe super-hero character Oliver Queen/Green Arrow will be getting his own live-action T.V. series.

News: Venom Vol. 2 To Launch in March 2011

For all you Venom fans out there, get ready as Marvel Comics will be launching the 2nd volume of issues of the comic book series "Venom". Unlike the first volume (which ran from 2003 to 2004 and starred Eddie Brock), this upcoming volume will focus on adventures of U.S. military soldier Flash Thompson as he's now the host of the Venom symbiote, which uses to take down bigger threats in the mainstream Marvel Universe.

The first issue of this new volume will be released on March 2, 2011, but make sure you first read "The Amazing Spider-Man" No. 654.1 (to be released on Feb. 16) as it will set the prelude stage towards "Venom" Vol. 2.
