Sarah Palin, Secret Agent Of The Left

2:06 am EST October 5th, 2008 | News | 7 Comments

For the second time in as many days, Sarah Palin has publicly expressed disagreement with the McCain campaign’s decision to pull out of Michigan (a decision the state party is lamenting in public as well). This gives McCain two options:

1) Stay the course: This makes his running mate look like more of a ninny and adds to the state party’s malaise

2) Flip flop: Wastes money in a state he’s going to lose anyway, and feeds into the erratic and desperate John McCain narrative

This discord also helps to show the public once again which campaign has its stuff together and which is just lurching from one minute to the next.

Excellent work, Agent Palin. Await further orders from HQ…

DC Killing Batman?

In light of the very stupid “deaths” of Superman and Captain America (as well as multiple deaths for the Flash), this would be incredibly stupid. It’s just the height of unimaginative thinking. It’s one thing to kill of Robin or Bucky (although that doesn’t quite work since both Bucky and Jason Todd came back to life), but a whole other to kill of a character that everyone knows is the center of a multi-billion dollar licensing machine.

I just hope she says “Mister J”, but interesting considering her role in the ongoing Countdown to Final Crisis.

Pretty impressive.

Twentieth Century Fox has officially announced six of Hugh Jackman’s co-stars, including Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool and Gambit, as played by “Friday Night Lights” star Taylor Kitsch!

What, you want even more? Well how about Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am as John Wraith, Danny Huston as Col. William Stryker and Lynn Collins as Kayla Silver Fox? Add in Liev Schreiber as Sabretooth and you’ve got a movie that even the big screen will have trouble holding in!

Batman: Dark Knight Trailer

Looks pretty good, but I remain disappointed with Heath Ledger’s “Joker” makeup. It’s a little too realistic for me. I understand that the aesthetic of the Christian Bale Batman is more realistic, but let’s not forget that this is a comic book world. I think I still prefer Jack Nicholson’s look.

She’s been cast in the new JLA movie. I really hope this thing doesn’t turn out to be Justice League: Dawson’s Creek Edition. Because then I’d have to stab out my eyes.

They say he isn’t Steve Rogers. It looks about as awful as electric blue Superman (one of Superman’s post-death costumes).

Detective #27 Found In An Attic

5:22 pm EST October 10th, 2007 | Uncategorized | 1 Comment

How come I never find stuff like this?

A near-mint copy of Detective Comics No. 27, a pre-World War II comic featuring Batman’s debut, was recently found in an attic and sold to a local collector.

The comic is considered to be the second-most valuable available and can fetch up to $500,000. The only comic considered more valuable is Action Comics No. 1, in which Superman makes his first appearance.

Collector Todd McDevitt said the Batman issue he bought is worth about $250,000, but he won’t say exactly how much he paid or who sold it to him.
