This month: The Comic-Book Preview issue!

CLICK HERE TO SUBSCRIBE TO TOTAL FILM MAGAZINE

In this month’s Total Film magazine issue 196, we scope out the biggest comic-book movies coming your way. Thought the panels had been exhausted after The Dark Knight Rises and The Avengers? Think again, as we profile the 63 (count ‘em!) sequels, prequels, reboots and original adaptations up next.

Inside this issue… The newly revitalised Dredd heads up our comic-book preview with his iconic hand-cannon-and-grimace combo. We chat to star Karl Urban about enforcing the law in Mega-City One, as well as meeting ‘the rookie’ Cassandra Anderson (Olivia Thirlby) and ‘the baddie’ Ma-Ma (Lena Headey).

If that gets you thirsty for more, there’s tons more comic-book content to sate your appetite, including Marvel Phase 2, which comprises Iron Man 3, Thor: The Dark World, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, The Avengers 2, Ant-Man, and intergalactic super-team Guardians Of The Galaxy.

And there’s more! Zack Snyder talks Man Of Steel, Godzilla roars again, Eva Green spills on 300: Battle Of Artemisia, and Mark Millar discusses Kick-Ass 2. Plus, Edgar Wright judges YOUR superhero designs.

You voted in your thousands for the Total Film Hotlist Awards, and inside this issue we hand over the trophies to all of the winners. Did your favourite make the cut?

If you like your movies tough, gritty and fully loaded with ammo, this just might be your month, with in-depth features on Lawless, Killing Them Softly and The Bourne Legacy, and a first look at Jake Gyllenhaal’s new cop movie.

Among the stars sitting down for a chat with Total Film this month, we count Michelle Rodriguez, Kylie Minogue, Michelle Williams and Alec Baldwin.

Plus, regular columns from Richard Ayoade and Alex Zane, all the latest reviews (in cinemas, and on your player at home), the best bits of Comic-Con and Liam Neeson getting mad, bad and even in Taken 2.

      Don't mean to be picky but I was expecting something a bit different from your last issue, the 'Massive Interactive Issue No. 191'. I thought that it would be an interactive issue for all readers to use (like a pop up book) not an issue that only readers who have Smartphone's could get the most out of. Not everyone owns a Smartphone, bit of a let down really. I would hope that you could even it out a bit and have an issue in the future where all the readers can interact with it. Just a thought. Love the mag!

      A 'pop up book'? You 10? To be interactive, you need a device such as, oh I don't know, a smartphone? Join the fad.

      Although I own a smartphone (and most people do have them) and I'm not ten years old (at least physically older anyway) I have to say a 'pop up book' sounds like a great idea. All that scanning was great but instead of scanning for more juicy info on the Avengers Assemble, you open the page and a Hulk fist smashes you in the face. Total Film if your're reading this the future of magazines is... POP UP BOOKS!

      For a moment i honestly thought i was looking at George Clooney on the cover ! Ive never really liked the batman helmet - he just doesnt look particularly scary - he looks more like an owl . Strange considering Christian Bale is a fairly intense looking actor ...
