The Minutemen photo (the original 1940s superhero team) will, of course, be in the movie, and that link's your first look at it (I...don't THINK there's anying spoilerish about it...). I love how they all look like characters from bad sci-fi movies.

And I CAN'T be the only one who was wondering about how they were going to incorporate the pirate comic book ("Black Freighter") into the movie. Well...they aren't. Not in the theatrical release. BUT there will be two different DVDs that will include it (it will be animated), including one that integrates it into the movie (like in the series). The other one, apparently, is JUST an animated release of the Black Freighter story (and will be released days after the movie's theatrical release).

All told...this is...an intriguing way of doing things. The amount of detail and work they're putting into this is staggering. I just hope it pays off.
 
Heh, the Minutemen look so comical and goofy. Which is the way it's supposed to be.

There's no way I'm going to buy the Tales of the Black Freighter DVD by itself, but I'm definetly going to get the "ultimate edition".
