‘PROPHET’ artist GIANNIS MILONOGIANNIS drops FREE 350-PAGE ART BOOK online for free
One of the captains of the Prophet-ship, the creator of Old City Blues, dude nice enough to give us an interview. Giannis Milonogiannis is many things. Now he’s adding “charitable as fuck creator” to his resume, after dropping a beastly 350-page art book online. For free.
Zack Snyder says BATMAN VS. SUPERMAN’ “literally explodes” the COMICS MYTHOLOGY
Zack Snyder’s back, having opinions, insights and such. The Poor Man’s Joss Whedon has recently opened up about the fan reactions to the casting of Ben Affleck, Jesse Eisenberg, and a whole litany of other things. Most interesting is his TOTALLY GNARLY TAKE on the DCU, noting that Batman vs. Superman LITERALLY (he loves that word) EXPLODES THE COMICS UNIVERSES. BOOM.
New ‘WINTER SOLDIER’ poster has Cap DUCKING THINGS; it’s sort of dumb
Hey it’s a new poster for The Winter Soldier. In case you missed the last podcast (hey! look at this!) I’m pretty excited for this movie. So I’m just going to gobble up the fecal-blasts from the brown-coated entertainment wind tunnel that is Marvel’s Marketing Arm. Yum, yum! A distended belly full of nonsense and whizbang!
If you actually care about this poster, hit the jump. Let’s laugh at it together.
Image Comics Publisher ERIC STEPHENSON talks some truth about comics gimmick bulls**t
Eric Stephenson came out to address ComicsPRO retailers today, and the Bro Who Ushers In A New Image Renaissance was lobbing bombs. Just giggling as he laced his right-hooks with truth serum. Burying his knuckles deep in the sloppy stomach of comic book excess. His remarks give me somewhat of a boner. But I’m a child.
Patrick Wilson Joins ‘ANT-MAN’, can’t possibly be worse than his other comic movie
Patrick Wilson was Owl-Guy in Zack Snyder’s fetishistic, slow-motion driven, intellectually challenged rendition of Watchermen. Now he’s back to the comic book stable, joining the cast of Ant-Man.
‘AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON’ SNEAK PEAK dropping in MARCH on ABC
Harumph! The sound I make when I’m unsure of something. It’s also the sound I make when I’ve just…you know what never mind I was going to mention something about masturbation, a bar of soap, and police sirens. Whatever. That’s not the story here. (Is it?) We’re talking Avengers: Age of Ultron.
Skottie Young helming NEW ‘ROCKET RACCOON’ series.
Deep, critical thinking: Skottie Young rules. Rocket Raccoon rules. Combining them together in an orgy of rabid violence and gorgeous artwork is the definition of ruling.
Hit the jump for some deets and look at the full artwork.
Marvel filming 60 HOUR-LONG NETFLIX EPISODES in New York
Talk about an endeavor! Marvel is intending to film sixty fucking hour-long episodes in the City of New York. That’s a lot of episodes smelling like homeless people grilling on the grates at Times Square and pizza. Naw — just kidding — snark power down! — this is a pretty impressive attempt.

WARREN ELLIS got new comic ‘TREES’ coming from IMAGE. Jason Howard on art.
Fuggity fuck yes! Warren Ellis is getting back into the creator-owned comics game. Ellis along with Jason Howard is bringing Trees to Image, and you can probably feel the Force-ripples from my cascading dong thunder from wherever you are. While I’m pretty “meh” about his latest novel, and really “ehhhh” about Moon Knight, the author diving back into the world of his own sequential-art-creations is fantastigasm.
