Comics,

ON OUR RADAR - Man of Steel gets a full trailer - All the updates & Images, Posters, Trailers and news

Superman Man of Steel will be in UK cinemas in under 2 months and as Spring sets in the marketing campaign for the Summer blockbuster releases is ramping up, with the first signs of life coming via a Viral campaign wherein General Zod (Michael Shannon) has contacted earth via a static transmission looking for one of his citizens Kal-El. This led us to a site (http://www.iwillfindhim.com/) which was counting down to something.

Using the glyph clues on http://www.dsrwproject.com/ we have worked out that the deadline in line with General Zod's warning will end at around 1:15am British time. We are hoping that this was the reveal of the first full Man of Steel Trailer after its debut at Cinema Con - well see for yourself below. I will be doing a full analysis of the trailer shortly. can be found here: http://www.theestablishingshot.com/2013/05/man-of-steel-trailer-analysis-its-epic.html

We can expect to see Zack Snyder's Man of Steel in UK cinemas from 14 June, 2013. In the meantime below I'll be updating this post with all the official news you need to know about Man of Steel.

Superman may be the most recognisable and famous comic character of all time - but this works against him when trying to bring him to screen as everyone knows bits of the story already. He is also the most powerful character in comics making him unstoppable so how do create the dramatic tension of a threat when you are invulnerable?

Hopefully Zack Snyder and David S. Goyer have turned this weakness into a strength in updating Superman and Producer Christopher Nolan has learnt a thing or two to contribute from across The Dark Knight Trilogy and using our expectations to their advantage to bring Superman back into popular culture and placing him where he needs to front and centre.

From Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures comes Man of Steel, starring Henry Cavill  in the role of Clark Kent/Superman, under the direction of Zack Snyder.

A young boy learns that he has extraordinary powers and is not of this Earth.  As a young man, he journeys to discover where he came from and what he was sent here to do.  But the hero in him must emerge if he is to save the world from annihilation and become the symbol of hope for all mankind.
