Neil deGrasse Tyson discovers KryptonToday’s issue of Action Comics #14 (entitled “Star Light, Star Bright”) features an appearance by world-renowned astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson who shows up to help Superman discover the true location of his home planet of Krypton. Applying real science to the character’s comic book legend Tyson discovered a “red dwarf star designated for having the ability to support a Krypton-like planet is located in the constellation Corvus 27.1 light years from Earth.”

This means, beginning today, and following the coordinates supplied by Tyson, any amateur astronomer can find the little spec of light in the sky known as Krypton. For more you can find the full press release inside.

We shared a teaser with you a few months back, but now John Dies at the End has a full-length trailer. Based on the novel of the same name written by Jason Pargin, the movie stars two college dropouts (Chase WilliamsonRob Mayes) who discover a new drug that allows the user to drift across time and dimensions. The problem is once they come back they aren’t always human. Can the pair of unlikely heroes stop an insidious alien invasion? With a title like John Dies at the End I’m guessing the chances aren’t great. Paul GiamattiClancy BrownGlynn TurmanAllison Weissman, and Doug Jones also star. Adapted and directed by Don Coscarelli (Bubba Ho-Tep, Phantasm) the movie will open in theaters on January 25th.
