DC has announced a new Justice League title which will spin out of Final Crisis.  The new book, Justice League, will be led by Green Lantern (Hal Jordan) and Green Arrow, and include Ray Palmer (but not necessarily as the Atom), Supergirl, Batwoman, Starman (Mikaal Tomas), the new Shazam! (Freddy Freeman), and Congorilla.  Written by James Robinson the team’s mission statement will be different from other incarnations of the league in it’s proactive response – “They’re going to be like hunting down the DCU equivalent of the FBI’s Most Wanted list.  They have a reason to exist as a team, and really, can go on forever.”  Check out the members of the team inside the Full Diagnosis.  You’ll know more when we do!

PTI’s April Fools

April Fools jokes aren’t exactly new, but I thought this intro segement from Tuesday’s Pardon the Interruption was worth sharing.  I’m a long time fan of the sports commentary/debate show (and of that bear on the trampoline).  In this clip their straight-faced take on the Kansas/Davidson result goes all the way to sell the joke.  Nicely done.  PTI airs 5:30/4:30 on ESPN, Monday through Friday.  You can check out a larger version inside the Full Diagnosis.
