A student goes on a drug trip and cuts off…er…let’s just say “both things needed to please a woman” and leave it at that. Or, to paraphrase a quote from Born on the Fourth of July, “If you don’t have it in the hips, you’d better…oh, never mind.”

Just a reminder that Christopher Guest’s latest mockumentary, A Mighty Wind, debuts on DVD today! This follows on the heels of his riotous movie about dog shows, Best in Show, and his earlier film about a small town play that hopes to go to Broadway, Waiting for Guffman. Highlights of A Mighty Wind include all…
Marvel for December
Marvel solicitations for December are out. The big news is Ultimate Fantastic Four. But…Reed Richards is a “high school genius”? C’mon…are today’s kids totally unable to empathize with someone in his 20s or 30s?

Conventions really are like this!
Sketches at a convention. Scary!
Crimson Dynamo writer on Iron Man
The new Iron Man writer has some interesting ideas on both modernizing Iron Man and getting him back to his roots by exploring the arms manufacturer in the new age of smart weapons. I’ve never read Iron Man, but this sounds very intriguing, especially the complex political situations. Meanwhile, many of the Iron Man fans…
Berganza on Superman “relaunch
While this isn’t as significant as John Byrne’s true relaunch of Superman in 1986 (which is what I think about when I see the word), editor Eddie Berganza details the changes that will be seen in Superman #200 and the new creative teams coming on board.
Bruce Campbell on Spidey 2
Bruce Campbell, the ring announcer in the first Spider-Man film and a “snooty usher” in the second, is confirming that star Tobey Maguire is fit enough to play Spider-Man in the sequel.
