First Look At Michonne From The Walking Dead

Fans of The Walking Dead are excited for the debut of Michonne during the third season of the show with actress Danai Gurira portraying the sword wielding character. Well today Entertainment Weekly has released a first look of how Michonne will be looking in the show.

“The essence of the character — her personality, her motives, everything that makes Michonne Michonne — remains intact from the comics,” says The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman. “But like a lot of things on the show, there will be little tweaks and differences here and there. We saw that her introduction is slightly different from how it was in the comic, and her interaction with Andrea is really going to be a really cool addition to the character that I think will get television viewers up to speed, and they’ll get to know her a lot faster than comic book readers did.”

• The show will start with the movie line-up. Which means Iron-man, Cap, Hulk, Thor, Hawkeye and widow.
• The show will be sharing the same universe of the current Ultimate spider-man cartoon and the upcoming Hulk Agents of SMASH.
• Ant-man will join the team later on the series.
• The animation will be a big selling point for the show. and will be made by MAS (the newly formed Marvel animation studio) 
• The show will not be a continuation of the current Avengers Earth's Mightiest Heroes. 
• One of the big villains of the show will be Thanos, in order to promote the character for kids since he is rumored to feature in the second Avengers movie.

Matt Groening Finally Tells Where Springfield Is

For years and years everyone has wondered where Springfield is located on the globe, well now today Matt Groening has revealed that tidbit piece of information after all these years.

During an interview with Smithsonian magazine, Groening has revealed that Springfield takes place in his home state of Oregon. Yes, Springfield, Oregon.

“Springfield was named after Springfield, Oregon,” says Groening. “The only reason is that when I was a kid, the TV show Father Knows Best took place in the town of Springfield, and I was thrilled because I imagined that it was the town next to Portland, my hometown. When I grew up, I realized it was just a fictitious name. I also figured out that Springfield was one of the most common names for a city in the U.S. In anticipation of the success of the show, I thought, ‘This will be cool; everyone will think it’s their Springfield.’ And they do.”
