We are happy to say we knew director Gareth Edwards before he was picked to direct Legendary’s reboot of Godzilla. But now that he’s a big time director, he doesn’t seem to have lost his sense of humor and still has time for the fans.

In fact, he took time out of what must be a very busy schedule to record a video teaser for Godzilla’s appearance at Comic-Con in San Diego this week. There’s also a new poster to commemorate the event as well.

Check out both after the break. We can’t wait to see what Edwards does with this classic monster. If you’ve seen his previous movie, aptly titled Monsters, you shouldn’t have any doubt his take on Godzilla will be very cool indeed.

For the longest time, I was good. I am a geek who likes collecting but I know my weakness. All I had to do was not buy the first one and there wouldn’t be a snowball effect. It’s like Lays potato chips. As long as you don’t eat that first chip, you don’t end up eating the whole bag.

And then I moved to the west coast and The Flickcast’s WallE and the Internet’s Matt Raub ruined it for me. I was surrounded on all sides by people with these little bodies with big heads and beady eyes and before I knew it, it was too late. On a Saturday afternoon Comic Book Pub Crawl, I made my first purchase. An Alien and a Predator. And I thought I could leave it with just those two on my desk. But I was wrong.

The next week, I went into my comic book store to pick up my weekly stack and see they released a He-Man set so I figure the other half of my desk needs a Skeletor and Hordak. Fast forward a few more weeks and I am in the process of a TMNT set, Game of Thrones set and the first group of Power Rangers. I even downloaded the Toy Collector app to my iPhone to help me keep track of figures I want just in case I somehow forgot.

No, we can’t believe it either. Nevertheless, it’s almost San Diego Comic-Con time again. So, that means everyone who’s anyone will be heading to beautiful, downtown San Diego for several days of fun and geek/nerd overload.

Of course, one company that will be in attendance is DC, who have just announced their full slate of events, creators and more. Check out the full press release that follows for all the scoop.
