Paul Williams is Alive!
This surprised me and I was glad to hear it. He’s a talented guy and he looks great.
Aquila is Coming
Strip Magazine in the UK, which is reprinting the Age of Heroes in color is relaunching their book for the news stands in June and in that relaunched issue my first new character in over a decade will have his debut.
Aquila is a Roman Scout in the year zero AD. He is tasked with finding out whats going on in the fringes of the Empire. And what he finds is usually disturbing. Here’s a panel from the upcoming story.
The story will be released digitally later as a stand alone issue with additional material.
REVIEW: The Avengers
Awesome. One of the best superhero movies yet and it captures the spirit of early Marvel and marries it to modern sensibilities. Best fight scenes yet. This will disappoint very few fans of comics. Joss Whedon does a great job of giving each hero enough time to come off as a full fledged character and it ties in nicely with the earlier Marvel films. Nuff said.
The Amazing Spiderman Extended Trailer
Marvel’s got quite a year this time
Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter (trailer 2)
A much better trailer that gives you a better sense of the film.
REVIEW: Lockout
Can’t believe I went so long without posting something. It’s been a busy week.
Anyway. I saw Lockout last night and I enjoyed it. It’s a very entertaining film, not very deep but it’s very fun and fast paced. One big problem is one of the major villains has an almost indecipherable Scots accent. The bad guys are mostly two dimensional. Aside from that, its the story of a CIA agent framed and sent to an orbital prison, but he gets to make a deal to rescue the President’s daughter who is stuck up there during a breakout/riot. It’s simple and direct but its crammed with action and suspense. Snow (Pearce) is a barrel of one liners that are often pretty funny. He’s sort of like a futuristic John McClane (Die Hard).
Guy Pearce is great as usual. Its good to see him in a starring role. The guy is really underused and underrated.
There’s also a couple of jokes at the expense of Democrats which is something you don’t see too often.
New Comics Project
I’ve been working on an entirely new comics project which I have an interested publisher for. The art looks amazing and its coming along very nicely. I hope to be sharing a peek soon.
In the mean time, the color Age of Heroes trade is coming this fall in the UK and im working to finish 2 to the Chest this year. I’m planning a Kickstarter campaign to hasten it along. Stay tuned.
I was informed by the publisher of my comics in digital form, Devils Due, that 2 to the Chest is the hardest thing of mine to find issues of. Im looking forward to finishing it and having it made available digitally.
Total Recall Trailer
A remake of Total Recall that looks interesting. Poor Colin Farrell can’t carry a movie though, so I wonder if it will do any business. I liked his Fright Night remake but it didn’t do any business.
