COMIC-CON: Alex Proyas and The Silver Surfer

Dr. Cyborg here, checking in from the con.  I just wanted to drop a quick line and let you all know I’ll be back in a few days with complete coverage of everything these optical receptors have seen and with pictures.

First, I saw Alex Proyas’ panel for Knowing.  I’ll write up something about it later, but I wanted to set the record straight since EVERYONE else is reporting on my journalistic handiwork and I haven’t had a chance to yet.

Proyas is NOT directing Silver Surfer.  “Unfortunately that is just a rumor. I don’t know where that came from,” he told me and, by default, everyone else. “I do like Silver Surfer, but I’m not going to be doing it.”

So, bad times there.

I’m glad I got him to bring home the bacon for front page news on every other site.

Stuff to look forward to? I attended panels with Robert Kirkman, Grant Morrison, Mike Mignola, Jim Lee and a couple of other people whose names slip my mind.  I’ll be writing it up soon.

(Seriously though, that was indeed Dr. Cyborgs beautiful visage up there on the Big Screen of Hall H. Don’t you forget it.)
