Amidst all the news coming from DC over the past month or – and worries for the future of some of our favorite characters – it's been easy to forget that there's still the present. Issue #22 of Batgirl is entitled "Five Minutes Fast" and opens at the home of Stephanie Brown and her mother. People who are interested in illustration and design may be interested in learning about an online university degree. Extra art training is helpful to people who want to illustrate for a…

  The issue opens up with pirate Deathstroke on board a ship along with a small crew, one of whom is Clayface (that's not important but seeing as this is the Batman Universe…). It turns out the group are in Paris and they realize they've gone too far inland when they see a shipwreck but before they can turn the ship around, they are hit by a massive wave and Aquaman appears on board with Ocean…

We heard before that Alan Aboutboul would be playing a role in the film, but for the most part that was considered a rumor. Well, until now. It appears that Aboutboul has been spotted near the area that Chris Nolan is currently filming the film. Photo via ComicBookMovie.com     Posted by Dustin Fritschel

So despite all the rumors floating around yesterday about a possible large action sequence occurring, there is nothing to report about that. However, there are a couple of other things to go over.   First up, over at ComicBookMovie.com, they have posted a video from someone that taped some footage from the location that filming is happening. While nothing is shown, we do hear the person filming refer to a lady in a pink dress. While there is nothing really to take from this at this point, it is worth mentioning.

With filming occurring in London as we speak there are a ton of new developments.   First off, let's knock out a false one. There is a picture floating around online of Anne Hathaway sporting brown hair with blonde highlights. This is a picture from March and not recent.   HollywoodChicago.com has a source that is reporting the following:   Security has told me if we want to see something we should come after 2 p.m. tomorrow (Wednesday). They said we would most likely see something. I reckon the big action sequence will be tomorrow (Wednesday) afternoon.

Chris Nolan came out on Monday…

So even though there is a question mark in the title, we know that these are from London. But what kind of rumor mill would this be if we didn't make you question it?   Filming has begun in London and as expected, most of the focus will be on the Gotham Police Department based on these images.

Batman-News.com received some information from a local near London stating that they saw Chris Nolan and team scouting a place called Osterley Park. Here is what they had to say.   Yesterday (22nd March 2011) whilst jogging in Osterley Park, (West London) I bumped into a large group of Production Personnel on a recce. I recognized Wally Pfister and Chris Nolan along with Charles Roven amongst several production heads scouting Osterley House. Wally was using a viewfinder and taking pics whilst Roven was on the phone most of the time. When I asked what the production was a crew member…

Knight and Squire #1 is a comic I did not care about five weeks ago. I had read them in the Batman: The Black Glove hardcover, and didn’t care, I had read them in issues 7-9 of Batman and Robin, I still did not care, and then I saw a preview at the end of one of my comics last month, I started to care.   Knight and Squire #1 takes place in a London pub, where all the superheroes and supervillians hang…
