Good fannish news...

I haven't been paying enough attention. I discovered several things today that quite thrilled me.

1. Agent Coulson is going to be in the S.H.I.E.L.D. TV series - played by Gregg Clark. Didn't I say he was alive, hmm? And so he should be. I was fearing that Whedon's S.H.I.E.L.D. would be nothing but a comic romp, divorced from the movies, or the darker reality of the comics. Now I am much less afraid. I'd rather see Coulson in the show than Nick Fury, actually, though it would be great if Fury makes at least an appearance, and Maria Hill as well. Don't ask much, do I?
   
   
2. Seems that The Wasp will be in Iron Man 3 , which suits me fine. Played by Stephanie Szostak. This in to Janet Van Dyne's recent reappearance in the comic. Yup, I'm happy with this one - in both cases. I love it that both movies and books are using strong female superheroes, and not compromising on their powers.
   
   
3. Hawkeye #4 comes out next week. I can hardly wait.
