Prince of Persia Jake Gyllenhaal

Prince of Persia Jake Gyllenhaal

Movie Image with my caption Prince of Persia: Sands of Time will be a movie next year. And it’s star? None other then Jake Gyllenhaal. I laughed when I saw the first picture from the film, the one shown above. For me, it’s already lost all credibility and is a movie I will not...

Defending Bob Kane, Batman Co-Creator for swiping art

Batman Picture with my caption I had wrote a post before about Bob Kane and how he never gave Bill Finger credit for Batman. Much less the financial share Bill Finger should have got.

Spider-Man Had A Great Continuity until OMD / BND and other such events

Spider-Man picture with my caption One thing I’ve noticed is that until the 1990′s Spider-Man had a great, almost easy to follow continuity. His history was not really messed up, or had big gaps of reboots, timeline jumps, or continuity problems. I’ll qualify this by giving bad continuity examples. Over at DC Comics, Superman,...

Captain America Reborn Spoilers, and does the Red Skull have a gay fetish?

July 19, 2009

With Captain America Reborn, I just read Cap #600 and Reborn #1. And to me the details are still fuzzy about what exactly is going on. It appears that Steve Rodgers mind was sent time traveling to the past. While his body is in a time freeze type stasis. And that the Red Skull...

The New York-based company is suing Stacks for copyright and trademark infringement, false designation...

Is Comic Book Issue Collecting Becoming Extinct?

July 15, 2009

With the Internet, Cellphones, and other technologies in the last decade and a half, I wonder if comic book collecting is going to become a thing of the past? At least in terms of how we know it. I’ll qualify that statement in these factors: A. Comic book costs per issue vs trade paperbacks...

Creative Rights Mean NOTHING in Work-For-Hire Comics, Shatterstar Liefeld Example

Creative Rights Mean NOTHING in Work-For-Hire Comics, Shatterstar Liefeld Example

Kiel Phegley: Phase two of this controversy comes from Rob Liefeld, logged on to Twitter and “As the guy that created, designed and wrote his first dozen appearances, Shatterstar is not gay. Sorry. Can’t wait to someday undo this. Seems totally contrived.” As the Editor-in-Chief, how do you respond to that? It’s one thing...

G.I. Joe Snake Eyes A Good Original Character for Comic Books

I was thinking about comic books and while the G.I. Joe Universe really expanded as a comic book property. In truth, I really see the G.I. Joe Universe and characters as not comic book characters per say, but rather as the original idea of it being an action figure line and property. The fact...

July 7, 2009

I wrote the following blog post in another group on 4/19/08 but since I’m shutting that group down soon. I thought I’d post it here, because it’s a good post and I still want it out there. I was on a comic forum and posted this reply. Thought it was worth putting here. It...
