The Goon Goes Big Time
What could be better than a poster of Frankie and the Goon killing zombies as a movie poster? How about a Goonzilla-sized version?

Cully Talks Up Red
My buddy, Cully Hamner talks about writing and drawing the prequel to Red, the comic that the movie is based on, but not the movie. If that seems confusing it’s really not… especially once you read the interview here.
The Batman Becomes The Fixer
If you’ve been holding your breath waiting for Frank (Dark Knight Returns; Sin City; 300) Miller to finish up his long awaited 120 page graphic novel where Batman fights Al Qaeda terrorists… well, here’s some good news and bad news. The good news: the novel is almost finished and will be published next some time next year. The bad news: it’s no longer a Batman story.
Instead Miller has decided to make the lead character his own. He’s called The Fixer and he’s an adventurer who just happens to be ex-special ops. So you can imagine what happens when terrorists attack and he’s around! You can find out more about the changes here.
30 Days of Night: Dark Days
Want to see the trailer to the 30 Days of Night sequel Dark Days? If so, then you’ve come to the right place.
Dave Stevens’ Rocketeer Returns!

Who Drew The Walking Dead?
Harry at AICN posted this wicked Drew Struzan poster for AMC’s adaptation of The Walking Dead series. Harry has a ZOMBIELAND-sized version that could truly be your wallpaper and you can see it here.
The Walking Dead Walk
This Walking Dead motion comic is the coolest thing on the internet right now. Oh, and you might also want to check out a new (and much larger version) of The Walking Dead character poster below!
Cully Returns to Red
It’s no secret that I’m a huge fan of Warren Ellis & Cully Hamner’s mini-series Red. I was excited to learn that Bruce Willis is staring in the big screen adaptation. I’m even more stoked to hear that Cully has written and drawn a prequel to the series.
Eric Powell’s “The Goon” Trailer
If you’re a fan of Eric Powell’s The Goon (or even if you’re not) you’ll want to check out this trailer of what we can expect when a big screen adaptation hits. And keep in mind that when The Goon hits, he hits HARD.
Behind-The-Scenes with The Walking Dead
MTV News scored a cool behind-the-scenes look at AMC TV’s The Walking Dead. Thanks to the good folks at CBR.com, the clip can be seen here.
James Mason Gets Carter
I met James Mason a few years ago at an OrlandoCon. I knew right away I’d want to get a piece from him for my Stallone art collection. James worked up this take on Sly as Jack Carter. Recently James held a contest on his site and I was one of the lucky winners. My prize — James colored the piece you see posted today.
Big thanks to James!!
Robert Kirkman and his Zombies
Newsarama has a nice interview with Walking Dead creator, Robert Kirkman, who talks about plans for the comic and what to expect from the AMC tv series adaptation.
Bruce Willis is Red
It’s hard to believe that I’ve been yapping about Red, the Warren Ellis / Cully Hamner mini-series, for over six years. Perhaps it’s even harder to believe that it’s been turned into a movie starring Bruce WIllis and Morgan Freeman that will premiere on October 16th. Perhaps by then you’ll have seen The Expendables enough times to give Red a try.
Chris DiBari: Sly from “Nighthawks”
Chris DiBari provides this week’s Stallone piece. It’s Chris’ take on Sly as Deke DaSilva in Nighthawks. (Excellent choice and an excellent job!) I met Chris, who is also a big Stallone fan, at Heroes Con this year. This was my first piece by Chris, but hopefully won’t be my last.
