in a smooth transition from all of last week's "Dick Hunt" jokes (Dick Cheney shooting his lawyer buddy while quail hunting) to everyday pop culture pointlessness, check out LEGOd Video Games - a photoset on Flickr

if you happen to be going to the Todd McFarlane retrospective at MoCCA for the next two months, it might (very possibly not) be interesting to you to download Todd's audio commentaries on each of the pieces.
some might say i'll be "missing" the exhibit because of school. i can't say i'm all that upset. i'm still kinda annoyed by the horrendous pin-up he did for Sandman #50 (especially compared to the rather breathtaking ones by Scott McCloud and Craig Hamilton and Tony Harris). you know they only included him because Spawn was the most popular comic in the US right then. does that mean Ed McGuiness should do a pinup for Local now?

also, my favorite weekly article, Comics 101, returned yesterday after a two-week hiatus of moving from Moviepoopshoot.com to its own domain. this week's installment is part 16 (!!!) of the history of the Justice League of America (you know, the superhero team with Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman and others), a topic that didn't really interest me all that much when Scott published part one over a year ago (he's been covering various other topics in between the occasional month of JLA history) but has genuinely drawn my interest. right now he's wrapped up in the 90's run by Grant Morrison, which I actally read a lot of and enjoyed when it first came out. the topic seems much more interesting now, especially considering DC is about to relaunch the Justice League of American with Brad Meltzer writing. that cat can WRITE (and he's down with Chip Kidd, which is A+ in my book).
