If Only the Presidential Campaign Was Like This
Posted on 03.30.08 by Widge @ 9:07 pm

I think this is a matchup I'd love to see, wouldn't you?

Nick Fury for President
Found at Beaucoup Kevin

VS.

Cobra Commander/Destro for President
Found at The ISB

Just think of the debates. The mind reels at the prospect.

Gutsville: In the Belly of the Beast

Gutsville #1

Okay, I meant to post this back when Uncle Warren first posted it. I hadn't checked out Gutsville prior to the first issue being put up for free over on Newsarama. But having given it a read, I'm going to get the rest of it. Because it's basically what would happened if you crossed The Crucible with Goliath Awaits and got Guillermo Del Toro to direct it. It's seriously fucked up. I'm in.

Another Skrull--Revealed!

Who Do You Trust in Riverdale?

Couldn't care less about the Secret Invasion at Marvel? I know exactly what you mean.

But Brian Hughes at Again With the Comics has divulged a shocking revelation that, if true, would be about the only thing that could get me reading.

Philip Pullman Writing "John Blake" Comic
Posted on 02.22.08 by Widge @ 1:27 am
Philip Pullman

David Fickling Books, an imprint of Random House, has announced the "DFC," a new weekly comic for youngsters that's beginning in May of this year. We're going to go way out on a limb and postulate that "DFC" might stand for "David Fickling Comics." Call us crazy.

"For today's children it is almost a brand new form of entertainment. Only completely original material will be published in the DFC. No advertising, just 100% storytelling delight. Joy in an envelope," says Fickling. And yes, if you were around to hear David Lloyd at DragonCon last year, there's a very good reason that for British children comics are "brand new."

Anyway, the first writer to be announced to be participating in this is Philip Pullman, author of The Golden Compass, which had the working title of The Father, The Thing-That-Could-Be-a-Watch and the Very Big Bear. He's writing "The Adventures of John Blake," of which nothing else is known other than it will rock balls, until the final issue, which will make you so angry you'll want to punch kittens.

The DFC's website is here, and it looks like it will open in less than seventeen days from the time I write this.
