A petition asking Marvel Entertainment and Disney to make things right with Jack Kirby's family. If you do, I'll have a special treat for you.

Joss Whedon script with lots of twists and turns. 72 on Metacritic!

Ooops

Worst comic book coloring error ever.

I've Ordered My Copy

Pick yours up here.  Also, just on a housekeeping note, someone's been overfeeding Munchie.

More Books For The Discerning Bastard

Enjoying the journey here -- a passage in the Jobs biography about calligraphy and fonts got me Jonesing for the above book. Surprisingly awesome read. You comic enthusiasts all need a copy.

FLTANNG!

And I quote:

Sixty-five episodes of three seven-minute segments were produced, for a total of 195 segments that ran initially in broadcast syndication from September 1, 1966 to December 1, 1966. The series, produced in color, had extremely limited animation produced by xerography, consisting of photocopied images taken directly from the comics and manipulated to minimize the need for animation production.

Iron Man appeared in the 1966 series The Marvel Super Heroes where he was one of the five featured superheroes and was voiced by John Vernon.

That means Iron Man was ... Dean Wormer! Anyway, enjoy this week's episode, "The Other Iron Man."

Eww

This Looks Good

Let's see: Spielberg, Jamie Bell, Andy Serkis and Daniel Craig, effects by Weta. (This may come as a complete surprise, but I read The Adventures of Tintin in elementary school ...)

Hmm, Maybe I Won't See It After All

Avengers Assemble

A promo poster for Marvel's The Avengers was spotted at the Licensing International Expo in Las Vegas. (Whatever the hell that is.) The Avengers comes out next May.

Here's Conan's list of shitty DC superheroes.

Ha Ha Ha

Shit

Harvey Pekar, dead at 70.

Wedon Directing The Avengers?

Not the British Avengers, you understand, with the prissy dude and the smokin' hot Emma Peel in the body suit, but the Marvel Avengers. Interesting pick, if it becomes official. Joss excels at building chemistry and tension between characters, the action is sometimes incidental to the human elements. Can he control a cast of heavyweights? Will this film be his or will he be handcuffed by the money and expectations involved? More

I can relate ...
