Here’s what else is going on in nerd news around the Web:
Is Nathan Fillion Ant-Man? Not yet, but it looks like it could happen. Marvel Studios has an Ant-Man film in the works, likely to debut sometime after The Avengers hits screens sometime in 2012. With Joss Whedon set to direct The Avegners, where some say Ant-Man would make his debut, Fillion, as a Whedon favorite, could be a top pick.

“Just because you are an adult does not mean you should stop playing with things like a child or even like a puppy does. Poke something with a stick, TRY things, experiment. Run around and wave your arms. (Just not right now.)
A lot of people just aren’t so persistent about asking such questions — and find themselves someplace they never wanted to be. Others can’t wait to see what is around the next corner, on the top of the next hill. Those are the people that are curious, people who are asking questions and who are actually GOING someplace.
And of course there is the word — should — as in should I be doing this? Ethical behavior, taking self responsibility — admirable traits that you can only maintain by constantly questioning yourself and your world.”
