We had the pleasure of speaking with Emmy-nominated composer David Ari Leon whose work can be heard on many super hero cartoons and specials such as Spider-Man Unlimited (1999-2001), Ultimate Avengers (2006), Planet Hulk (2010), and The Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes (2011). He most recently scored for a new ABC show with Sea World called Sea Rescue that is a part of Litton’s Weekend Adventure Block premiering Saturday morning, April 7. We also talked about all of the video game composing he’s done and how that’s given him a large variety of work to create.
David, what musically is different in the two seasons of The Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes?
David Ari Leon: Musically they’re very consistent, there wasn’t a change from seasons other than it was just an evolution of the story. So it was continued forward from what was done already. For me it...

A while, ago we spoke about the recent motion comics superhero movement. Now, Marvel is making a stronger push with this Astonishing X-Men Motion Comic Music Video. The video was unveiled on Oct. 28 as part of MarvelFest NYC 2009. The first thing I thought when I saw it was, "Damn, Cyclops is really cool."

Like many things in life these days, a music video about a rather famous group of mutants and the comic chronicling their adventures is probably something that’s inevitable. So, its with almost no surprise at all, really, that we bring you this brand new music video about the Astonishing X-Men.

Anyway, as with videos of this sort provided by our friends at Marvel, we’ve got to include the following bit to explain the video and satisfy the legal department. So, here you go and enjoy the video after the jump.
