All-Star Superman on HBO Family Tonight

I have yet to watch All-Star Superman so I'm hoping to catch it on HBO Family at 6:10 pm Central (7:10 pm Western) tonight. The animated movie will replay throughout the month. We finally got a sound bar for our new television yesterday since we have been having problems hearing movies on the HBO channels for some reason. So far, I missed watching The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey and Jack The Giant Slayer.

No Preacher For HBO

Comics Continuum reports MARK STEVEN JOHNSON: NO PREACHER ON HBO, which is a shame for I believe that the Vertigo comic series would make an interesting tv series. He refused to water down the content for the network. There is a rumor that someone is trying to get the rights to make a movie.

I have only read a few issues of Preacher and I liked it. My favorite character is Cassidy the vampire.
