Hero Under Consideration At Showtime - Your Help Needed!

hero-300px.jpg

We've talked before about Perry Moore's novel Hero, his novel about a gay teen superhero coming to terms with his identity and powers. Well you may also know that he is developing it for an ongoing series with the help of comics legend Stan Lee!

Our friend Jody over at DoorQ (who hung out with us at comic-con last year) nabbed an exclusive interview with Perry on the prospects for the show and an interesting tidbit revealed itself. Showtime is apparently highly interested in the show and thinking about picking up the pilot and developing it.

It's not the only show on the line, however, the decision is between several shows. So if you liked Hero and want to see it turn into a regular series, contact Showtime, because it's supposed to be decided this week!

Can we use the same contact to keep Showtime from turning this steaming pile of a 'book' into an even worse ongoing series?

Northstar's Boyfriend Coming In January! You guys may recall I was a bit cranky about Northstar and his lack of lovin' about a year and a half ago. In fact, at the time, I issued a challenge to Marvel to get him a kiss by June 2009 or I would declare him not really gay. I have not forgotten about this. However, when the X-men moved to San Francisco this year, we were teased with the existence of what looked to be Northstar's boyfriend (and manager), so I delayed judgment until we could see more. Since then, Northstar hasn't had a lot of major appearances, as there have been about a thousand major crossover events in the Marvel universe in the last six months, and each one tends to disrupt the normal storyline for most books, including the many X-books. So I waited. Our patience seems to have been rewarded! Artist Tim Fish revealed on his blog that his upcoming story in Nation X #2 (which comes out in Jan.) is a story about Northstar, and will feature Kyle, his boyfriend in an 8-page story. I'm not sure if an actual kiss is in it, but it's implied that there is some lovin' going on. Check out some sketches of Northstar, Kyle, and Aurora below, and we'll keep you up to date when we get closer to Jan. NATION X #2 1/6/10 [TimFishWorks]...
