DC COMICS FOR MAY

DC Comics will release its solicitations for May on Monday at 5 p.m.

For a complete rundown, with cover images, check back here then.



PAINKILLER JANE UPDATE

The Continuum has obtained the first two images from Painkiller Jane, the television pilot movie for Sci Fi Channel.

The images show Emmanuelle Vaugier in the title role.

Here's how the network describes the film:

"Based on the Event Comics series, Painkiller Jane is a super-heroine for the new millennium. When Jane Browning is exposed to a biochemical weapon that alters her genes, she becomes endowed with incredible self-healing powers and extraordinary physical and mental abilities. Now, on the run from a sinister organization determined to replicate her powers - or destroy them - Jane joins forces with some unlikely allies to become an ultra-covert crime-fighting agent."

The movie also stars Tate Donovan as Graham Knight, a Ph.D. professor who tries to help Jane figure out her new abilities, and Richard Roundtree as Colonel Watts, her commanding officer and mentor.

Production on the film is expected to wrap this week in Vancouver, British Columbia.
