V for Vendetta trailer
The V for Vendetta trailer is up. Natalie Portman, back from stinking up the screen in the Star Wars prequels, stars as a young woman taken under the wing of a masked anarchist fighting a fascistic British government. It’s based on an early work by Alan Moore, though oddly enough his name isn’t even mentioned…

What the Comic-Con Saw
I say it again, the movie Stealth is probably fluff, but it sure does look good! If you’re still doubtful, you can check out the STEALTH COMIC-CON SIZZLE PIECE. But be warned, this is one of those trailers that pretty much gives away the whole movie except for the ending.

Names for wars
This is off-topic, granted, but I’m a writer and every now and then I’m struck by the peculiar usage of words and phrases. That’s why, as soon as I saw this AP article entitled “Poll: Americans Say World War III Likely”, I was baffled by the title. They think World War III is likely? We’re…

Metro Med #0 is on time, on budget ($0) and contains surprise
I think I have my evenings back, for a short while. My next comic book, “Metro Med Summer Special #0”, is done, turned in to Shooting Star Comics, ready to print. PHEW! I know I haven’t really been talking much about this, aside from generally hyping it, but I guess it’s time to share a…

Remembering Jim Aparo
As I read more and more memorials to Jim Aparo, I’m reminded of some of my favorite stories that featured his art. That cover of Batman hanging from Elongated Man’s neck? That was his! He also did one of the greatest Metal Men stories ever, the immortal “Whatever Happened to Whatsername?”

P.S. 238 THE MOVIE???
In light of our recent talk about “The Island” being a ripoff of “Parts: The Clonus Horror”, I’ve been meaning to follow that up with a similar discussion. A kid is the progeny of the world’s two most powerful superheroes, so he is sent to a superhero school even though he doesn’t have any powers…
