badficwriterBeen meaning to post this for a while. Felt inspired by ComicsAlliance essay on 'Grounded.' About 5 pages from a 17 page story.

That's all she got this month, but it is more than enough for me. A full mugshot on the first page that officially welcomes her into Marvel history as a member of the Avengers?
Yes please.
(Full page from New Avengers #8 after the cut.)

Your Moment Of Narm

( Aw, all right, here's the rest of the page for context )
I'm working now on a Dark Empire post. Dark Empire II doesn't interest me as much, but I just had to share that.

Chances are you already knew about this (it's on the noscans community at least) but for those who don't...the identity of the new host for Venom has been revealed, and it's none other than...

Unstable Molecules
Jan. 30th, 2011 08:34 pmstubbleupdateFollowing on from Fantastic Four #587, I had a hankering for reading some of my old Fantastic Four stuff. But not any of 616 stuff, I wanted to read an alternate take.
This is from Unstable Molecules, a take on the Four as early 60s suburbanites. The novel Peyton Place is important both thematically and to the plot as they both deal with what's behind the facade of happy suburbia and the problems within and between families.
Apparently it won the 2004 Eisner for Best Finite/Limited Series (putting it up there with Marvels, 300, The New Frontier, Watchmen and Whiteout: Melt), but I've heard surprisingly little chat about it.
It's written by indie creator and cartoonist James Sturm.
In the 1970s, James saw an interview with Stan Lee on Wonderama, a show on WPIX-TV, and the next day he went out and bought a Fantastic Four Marvel comic book. In 2003, James got the chance to write Fantastic Four: Unstable Molecules, a four-issue series (later released as a trade paperback) featuring characters based on the Fantastic Four and published by Marvel Comics. Unstable Molecules went on to win an Eisner Award for “Best Limited Series.”
He describes it as being based on the inspiration behind the Fantastic Four and the authors notes paint a story of the "real-life" astronauts, which is all bolos.
I might post more later on in the week, but here's two pages from the beginning of Part 1.
Sue is a housewife, Johnny is a kid.

Sunday Subtext for Bat fans

The new Superman
Jan. 30th, 2011 10:56 pmsherkahnOn a previous post this past week I put up some beef cake that seemed to have the best word-of-mouth in the Hollywood community of portraying Clark Kent/Superman in film.
Looks like I was wrong, and the rumors untrue. And I am willing to admit it.
The man has been cast.
( Big Blue 2012 now has a face and a voice. )
