Marvel Zombie's Hostess Ad - Spoof

Getting Better

I have to say that I dug the new Animated Iron Man DVD that came out last week. The animation could still use a little help, but it's getting better. The story kept me going even though it would have been fun to see him fight a more high-tech villain. No real complaints though. It exceeded my expectations. These Marvel DVDs are getting better.

Take Note George Lucas...

One Of A Kind Spider-Man 100 Covers

80+ great artists were tapped to sketch on a blank cover of Ultimate Spider-Man #100. The Hero Initative, who set this up, is a not-for-profit corporation that helps creators in need. I hope all 100 covers are published sometime.

Two interesting images have been released lately. Harry Osborn as the new Green Goblin and Optimus Prime from Transformers.

Cool Covers For April

Ivan Drago

I'll take one of these too, but I don't know what the hell I'd do with it.

Someday

Someday when I start buying these kinds of things, I want this one too.

Oh Yeah!

Art Asylum has kicked it into high gear. New Marvel, DC, Speed Racer and Battlestar Galactica Minimates are all out or on their way. Now they have introduced these.

Holy Splash Screens!

Here is a fun way to waste some time. This page as a ton of expressions spashed across the screen when Batman or Robon slugged it out with the goons.

Ash vs. Marvel Zombies Covers 1 & 2

Ghostbusters Video Game Trailer

Ashley Wood Doing Tank Girl

Moon Knight & Spidey

Here is a great upcoming Finch cover and inside art for Moon Knight.

Thursday Eye Candy

R2-D2 DVD Player and Projector

Nikko has announced an R2D2-shaped one-third-scale LCD projector that includes a DVD player, firmware that supports MP3s and JPEGs, USB input, an iPod dock, wireless FM audio, and a Millennium Falcon remote-control. The head spins around, too. They also have an R2D2 base-station for a light-saber-shaped Skype phone.

Art School Batman Project

Some place called Dave School gets commissioned to do movies for Art Asylum's Minimate line. I watched X-Men Dark Tide and it was just OK but I really liked Batman New Times. The best part is that they got Adam West and Mark Mamill.

Pathfinder

Totally up my alley.....Vikings vs indians....way cool.

Stan Lee: Still got it?

Might be cool....

Jackie Chan The Street Fighter

Super Hero Squad

I can't pass by a cool little figure and not buy it. These two from Hasbro's new Marvel Super Hero Squad are awesome. Series One includes Captain America & Hawkeye, Wolverine & Sabertooth, Cyclops & Magneto, Angel & Colossus. I just know I'll end up getting them all. My compulsive collecting personality will make me. (Referring to Galactic Heroes, Heroclix & Minimates...) Series 2 comes out in a few months.



There is also a set coming out with the new Fantastic Four movie.

TMNT Screen Shots

This site has a bunch more. I think some were taken down...

Spider-Man 2 Extended Cut

FX aired Spider-Man 2 last week that featured approximately five minutes of extra content. Unfortunately, I heard it was mostly dialog between Peter and MJ. It's coming out on DVD soon.

File Under: What If?

Bubblegum Fink has posted a ficticious set of Star Wars cards for the Star Wars Christmas Special. They're great. Look around the blog and you will see tons of other movie cards sets he has made.
