Prophet #21 was awesome. Prophet #22 comes out today. A bit further down the line, Prophet #26 will not just be written by Brandon Graham. Oh no! Oh no no no. It’s also going to be drawn by the magnificent bastard.

Video: Batman Screams At Strangers In Toronto. Wayne Needs Help.
Some dude dressed as Batman skulked around Toronto busting out requisite Batman-isms like “Where are they?!” both amusing and scaring the shit out of passersby. It’s fucking awesome. Also worth noting: if this site ever becomes a viable life option (it won’t), expect me doing this all the fucking time.

New Pics From ‘The Avengers’ Feature Total Doofus Mode, and CASUAL FLEXING.
Did you know that Thor was the master of the casual flex? You can see all of the hotness in a new picture from The Avengers. What is he doing? Oh nothing. Looking at something on a computer screen. While his fucking triceps go goddamn insane. Also featured: slow rollin’.

…I mean c’mon he’s dressing up as a flying rodent and socking druggies in their gullets. Clearly he’s got other things going on.
Video: First Clip From ‘The Amazing Spider-Man’ Is More Like ‘Blasé Peter Parker’
Rendar alerted me to the existence of this clip and told me it was good. I watched it, and asked him why it was good. He then said “well, it wasn’t bad”, to which I agreed. This raised the question, why would The Powers That Be use this clip from The Amazing Spider-Man? Eh!?

Sam Humphries To Co-Write ‘Ultimate Comics Ultimates’ With Hickman. Wuttt. Yeahhh!
Fucking shit, man. We should just call it Sam Humphries Wank Week here at OL. Dude is going cosmic-big on the blow-up scale. The latest news? He’s co-writing (and eventually ascending to single writer) Ultimate Comics Ultimates with Jonathan Hickman. This should answer what happens when two of my favorites collide. This is Brubaker/Fraction on Iron Fist levels of bonery.

Funny Books We Snagged This Week: Bruce Wayne Is Like All F**ked.
Here at OL, the regular lead regular lives. Sometimes that sheezy gets in the way of timely column posting, and for that I hope you forgive us. Tuesday is the typical day I churn this pig out. As is evident, I did not. After getting home from a day on campus at 10:00 pm, I lived the life of a winner. Which is to say I ate a burrito, an entire bag of Sweethearts, and went to bed. A caloric nightmare.
Let’s party anyways. This is Funny Books We Snagged This Week, the column where we gather together and share our choice choices in the comic book world for a given week. Don’t know what is coming out (I suppose came out)? Visit ComicList.

Digital Comics Market *Triples* To $25 Million. Intangible High-Five!
The comics market is withering. Maybe! Biggest January in the direct market since 2008, and now there’s news that the digital market has tripled. I find this news to be, as some are wont to say, ballin’ out of control.
