More of your entertainment buck...

Jeff Matsuda announced on his web site that he is the art director of The Batman. Matsuda, who worked as a comic-book artist at all of the major publishers, recently worked on The Jackie Chan Adventures for Sony Television. He's listed in the opening credits for his character designs. (I /knew/ I knew that art.)

According to Variety, X2 screenwriters Dan Harris and Michael Dougherty and X-Men franchise director Bryan Singer will be writing a year's worth of Ultimate X-Men comics.

Early reviews on Hidalgo are a mixed bag. People are saying that Viggo seems to be kind of stuck in Aragorn mode and that the script is not the best. That and it isn't actually based on a true story at all. Seems like it is based on one of the stories of one of the greatest con men of all time. Interesting stuff.

Oh dear. Are you afraid of the Constantine movie? This will definately make you even less happy. Wheeeee, Preacher script review. There is good news for other stuff at the end, though.

I might have to start picking up JSA. Or maybe reading Jeff's copies. And a few Green Lantern things. Man. Well, thank goodness for TPBs.

Comcrap Offers To Buy Disney

If they get rid of Eisner or minimize the damage he can do, I can't see it as a bad thing.

Actually, Eisner's two main rivals seem to be currently uniting to DESTROY him*... so that's also a good thing.

*according to a blurb I overheard today on NPR

Oh, I know. You should go visit www.savedisney.com and look at the things there.

That's why this bid has been forwarded now. Eisner and Disney look weak right now.
