Rebecca Keegan of the LA Times recaps some of the big stories coming out of this year's Comic-Con, and tells us about the weekend's movie disappointment, R.I.P.D.

The L.A. Times' Rebecca Keegan is still trying to emerge from the stupor created by a full week of long days at nights at the annual Comic-Con in San Diego. She says perhaps the biggest news was the announcement that Warner Bros. will pair two superheros, Batman and Superman, in an upcoming film.

Rebecca gives us the latest on Joss Whedon's new TV series, "The Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."

Proving that just having periods in the title is no guarantee of success, she tells us about what might be the biggest box office disaster of the summer, "R.I.P.D."
