'The Wolverine' Has A New Teaser Poster PLUS Live Chat With Hugh Jackman From The Set

Check out this very cool back-to-basics teaser one-sheet that has been released by 20th Century Fox for The Wolverine. Care to compare this image to the disappointing photoshopped final poster for the billion dollar grossing The Avengers? Please keep your train on thought 20th Century Fox!

As reported here last week, The Wolverine will in fact be a sequel (and NOT a prequel as previously thought), set after all of the previous X-Men films. 

Directed by James Mangold (3:10 To Yuma), and with Hugh Jackman reprising his signature role as the popular Marvel Mutant, the future setting (in Japan) will allow the film to stand on its own and focus more on Logan's raw animal instincts and immortality.

You can also check out the live online chat below that both Hugh Jackman and James Mangold participated in earlier today from the film's set in Sydney, Australia.

The Wolverine is set to hit the big screen, apparently now in 3D, on July 26th, 2013.

NEW YORK COMIC CON 2012: Hasbro KRE-O's Classic G.I. Joe Flashback

The good folks at Hasbro have provided NerdyRottenScoundrel with a sneak peek image for their 2013 G.I. Joe KRE-O toy line, which will be unveiled next week exclusively at New York Comic Con.

For the NYCC debut, KRE-O chose a varient that is unmistakably reminiscent of Marvel Comics' June 1982 first issue of G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero, which featured some of the original 13 members, including Grunt, Flash, Scarlett, and Stalker.

Check back here next week for a preview of what is set to hit shelves in 2013, I will be attending an exclusive event on the eve of NYCC for a first hand sneak peek at Hasbro's latest in their Transformers, G.I. Joe, Star Wars, and Marvel toy lines.
