Paul Levitz: Remembering Will Elder and E.C. Comics

MAD magazineEditor’s note: DC Comics President Paul Levitz returns to Blog@ once again to post memories of meeting Will Elder and E.C. Comics. by Paul Levitz The passing of Will Elder has me thinking of the amazing moment in time that was E.C. Comics. I think we met at 1972’s legendary E.C. Fan-Addict Convention, but that [...]

Acts of kindness: charity auction updates

by Paul SalviThere are several initiatives going on right now in the comics industry to hold auctions and raise money for charity, ailing professionals and a retailer, so I thought I’d give an update on the various activities going on. If I missed something, feel free to drop me an email and I’ll either [...]

Winstead to play Ramona Flowers in Scott Pilgrim

Mary Elizabeth WinsteadIt looks like Scott Pilgrim has found his Ramona Flowers.

Apathy only ruined me, lying around waiting for calamity….

Millarworld - Apparently not the place to go and hype product if you’re not working for Marvel. It all started when a fan called Brian Kippenberg posted the following for his friend: Thought I’d pass this along as a sign of support… HELP SELL-OUT SUPERMAN # 676 Vito Delsante needs your help! On May 14, SUPERMAN #676 is [...]

Weekend reviews: Ayre Force

Ayre ForceAyre Force Written by Adam Slutsky and Joseph Phillip Illidge Art by Shawn Martinbrough Bodog Entertainment $19.95 Ayre Force is one of the silliest and most blatant examples of “comics as ego-boosting pr tool” I’ve ever seen. It’s an absolutely horrible, incomprehensible book, awash in tiresome cliches and abysmal dialogue, but at the same time I found myself admiring [...]

Just Past the Horizon: Questionable Tools

Every human being has a set of strategies in their social toolkit designed to protect themselves from the unpleasant rigors of empathy, self-examination, and the dreaded realization of their true place in the universe. There’s nothing wrong with this, provided you take inventory of these tendencies so that they don’t pop up unrecognized, use [...]

Most Excellent Superbat

Most Excellent Superbat DC’s Final Crisis sketchbook isn’t something I’d typically buy, but it was interesting to see the above page, posted on Managblog, which features “Most Excellent Superbat.” He’s a member of “Super Young Team” … which, of course, is from the mind of Grant Morrison, which also gave us The Great Ten’s Accomplished Perfect [...]

Screen Bites

FringeI’m a little behind on the fall schedules … while I was dealing with a broken dishwasher, car problems and a blackout, FOX, CBS and The CW went and released their fall schedules over the past couple days; (NBC and ABC released theirs earlier).
