aekaWhile there were some moments in this book I found a bit silly, all in all I actually liked this issue. Especially the scenes between Gretel and Barbara.

JLA/Avengers
Feb. 8th, 2012 09:49 amar_feinielIn my experience, most crossovers don't live up to their ambitions. JLA/Avengers is an exception. Also, it's got a sense of humor.
Here are some snippets of the JLA in Marvel's 616 and the Avengers on Earth One. I loved seeing how the two teams react to each other's worlds.

Dudes in Distress Week - Oh come on, you MUST have known I'd be doing something like this (Pt2)
Feb. 5th, 2012 04:10 pmicon_ukAs promised, this is the second mega-posting to celebrate the end of "Dude(s) in Distress Week", dealing with published images... (This is sort of a "Greatest Hits", as much of it has been posted before)
The history of the "Dude in Distress" in graphical literature is a long and noble one... there are probably medieval woodcuts showing that sort of thing, but as that slightly predates most of the usual area of scans_daily, we'll skip to something vaguely more recent... well, relatively speaking.
LOTS of scans under the cut, but I've used smallish thumbnails so as not to kill your broadband completely! Just stun it slightly...

Dudes in Distress Week - Oh come on, you MUST have known I'd be doing something like this (Pt1)
Feb. 5th, 2012 12:45 pmicon_ukAs the sun sets (or rises depending on time difference) on scans_daily's "Dude in Distress Week" (and thank you to the mods for it and to everyone who contributed such great issues), I thought I'd make a couple of posts featuring my favourites... First post will be some commissions, the second post will be some classic moments from the past, and the third will be my nomination for perfect "Dude in Distress" issue. And yes, I should probably apologise in advance for the sheer Robin-centricity of them, but frankly you should know me better by now! :D If cute guys in pixie boots aren't you're thing, please feel free to skip them all.

ficticonsYoung Justice is coming back to TV screens in less than a month! The airdate for the new episode is March 3, 2012.
The episode title and synopsis have been released by World's Finest Online (at the link above) and ( that information's reproduced here too ).
For legality here's ( the cover image and solicit for the cartoon's companion comic, the latest issue of which comes out on Feb. 15 )
Also, it looks like The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes is getting a new comic series. Still no word on an airdate for Season Two, although since those comics are set for an April release and the movie comes out in May I'm guessing it'll probably be around then.
( Again from World's Finest Online, we have solicits for the series ).

silverzeoI know I maybe late for the week, but my scanner is not working and Dad broke the computer that works the other scanner, and that this guy's distress is about one or two pages long, BUT, considering his situation, it more than worth it. Here is something from Golden Age Batman!

Feb. 3rd, 2012 11:37 pmatom_punkHello scans_daily! Recently joined and I'm making this tentative first post about various fanmade character redesigns I've encountered.
I'm interested in hearing the community's feedback on these alternative designs. Apologies if there are repeats from other fanart postings.

zapbiffpowFirst shot at a post, sorry if there's any problem!
We've seen it from Dick Grayson in Batman and Robin's first run: if these pages from Detective Comics #815 are any indication, stepping into the boots of Batman entails losing a certain skill. Can you guess what it is?
( Punctuality? Conversationalism? The ability to look silly in a pointy cape? )

icon_ukDefinitely a contender for the loveliest art on a deathtrap (outside of my own commissions of course ;) )

aekaPaul Levitz gave another interview for Worlds Finest on CBR today, and let me just say I think they may have given me something to actually be upset about. It's enough to say, icon says all. And yes, that is saying a bloody lot.

icon_ukSadly, not every example of a dude in distress is a great one... and even the Dynamic Duo have their... less memorable experiences.

Jan. 30th, 2012 01:40 pmsherkahnIt was the 60s. It was a ... stranger time... and experimentation was going on in this crazy medium we love. io9.com has some of the trading card art from yesteryear.
Two of my personal choices behind the cut that meet this week's theme.
