First art from Frank Miller's XERXES (it's a prequel to 300)

Frank Miller is one of the most frustrating comic book artists that one can watch the career of. There's his classic stuff like The Dark Knight Returns and Sin City.

This is exactly the kind of story we need...

Gerard Butler plays King Leonidas of the Spartans and...

CONFIRMED: Rorschach is REALLY gazing back in new 300 trailer!

It's probably gonna be the biggest geek story of the week and Ain't It Cool News is verifying it this morning: 1 minute and 52 seconds into this extended trailer for 300, the following image appears VERY briefly (this pic is from a cap I took and it took a bit to nail it down)...After all these years of saying it couldn't be done... and even that it shouldn't be done...I guess...
