Always being about geek media in general and not just comics, some new info and pics were shown at San Deigo Comicon for the second season of the Avatar: The Last Airbender sequel-series, The Legend of Korra! Scans_Daily patron Espanolbot was good enough to gather some precious info regarding the future of the series, which was recently announced to have been greenlit for 50 additional episodes by Nickelodeon.

Among a slew of new concept art regarding the characters both established and new that are set to appear in Season 2, Mr. Bot was able to grab informational tidbits set to happen in the new seaon, such as the Southern Water Tribe being the main location of the new season, a look at Korra’s extended family, and further development of Tenzin’s older siblings Bumi and Kya. There is also to be a a look back on the origins of the Avatar and a large focus on the Spirit World.

The whole list of official reveals can be found at Espanolbot’s blog, as well as the character art and some setting design. Season 2 of Legend of Korra has no set air date as of yet, but it rumored to be early 2013.

Transformers Fall of Cybertron is only a month away from being released. Hasbro is putting out five Transformers action figures that combine to form a larger figure called Bruticus, featured in the game. Many fans are excited about an exclusive release of the 5 figures in one set repainted in the Generation 2 scheme of the same combiner group. That set has gone up for pre-order on Amazon.com. If any of you are going to be purchasing the set, we ask you use one of the links below to help us out while you help yourself!

Here is the synposis from Halo Waypoint

Set against the backdrop of a UNSC military academy, a group of highborn cadets are training to be the next generation of soldiers in the UNSC’s ongoing war with insurrectionists in the outer colonial planets. Among these cadets, Thomas Lasky struggles with his doubts about this war, and with the burden of expectations he may not be able to carry. As Lasky comes to terms with his potential as a military leader, the terrifying alien alliance known as the Covenant arrives and turns his world upside down. Inspired by the Master Chief, he must decide what it means to be a hero.

News is already starting to trickle in from SDCC 2012. As booths start to be set up by various companies, people are snapping photos and posting them online. We’ve already gotten our very first look at Masters of the Universe Classics Granamyr, the largest figure to be released in 2012. We heard about the helmeted dragon first at last year’s convention, where the fan poll determined his coloration; Red as in the Filmation cartoon or Green as in the mini-comics. Clearly the Red vote has won out. He looks very well articulated, but it is not clear if the figure is rotocasted or not. He is going to be available in December and will be priced at approximately US$80.
