Behold! The ‘Doctor Who’ Meets ‘Chrono Trigger’ With A Hint Of ‘Bill & Ted’ Crossover Posted: 17 Nov 2011 06:06 PM PST I've not seen one minute of Doctor Who. I've not played one second of Chrono Trigger, the hit 1995 Super Nintendo game. But I do know that both have a passionate fanbase, and I do also know that this crossover video of the two worlds meeting made me chuckle with gusto. Oh, right...and I love Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure. The video is brief---only a little over a minute long---but will be well worth the time of anyone who's fond of these titles. [...]

Word came down Tuesday that Marvel was canceling X-23, the story of the young, female clone of Wolverine, as written by Marjorie Liu. That same day, word came down that Jason Aaron's PunisherMax would be coming to an end, with the rumor originally being that the series was canceled with issue #22. However, Aaron revealed via Twitter that the series was coming to the ending he had planned for the book, and that it was just coming to an end, not actually canceled [...]

Paolo Rivera Reunites With The Man Without Fear In ‘Daredevil #7′ Posted: 17 Nov 2011 03:00 PM PST Paolo Rivera is one of those Marvel artists that just seems to pop up on every book the company publishes. His stay is just usually short consisting of mostly one-shots. He's previously done one-shots for Captain America, Spectacular Spider-Man, and X-Men. He has previously worked on Daredevil and did a brief run on Amazing Spider-Man. Now he's back on Daredevil teaming with writer Mark Waid to start a new story arc for the blind superhero. Marvel says in their press release for this book that issue #7 featuring Rivera/Waid is "a perfect jumping on point in the life of Matt Murdock." Just in case you didn't know Matt Murdock is the man behind the mask [...]

Salvatore and Geno Salvatore Art by Agustin Padilla Colors by Leonard O'Grady Letters by Chris Mowry Covers by Gonzalo Flores, Tim Seeley, Leonard O'Grady, Eric Deschamps IDW Publishing Release Date: November 9, 2011 Cover Price: $3.99 It seems that R.A. Salvatore is everywhere these days. And I love it! He and his son, Geno Salvatore, are writing all-new adventures for Drizzt in The Legend Of Drizzt: Neverwinter Tales #3. I'm always a sucker for new dark elf adventures. I miss his old allies but, as with all stories, things change. As always he has Guenhwyvar with him, plus his unique unicorn steed. Dahlia, his dark-hearted elven companion, accompanies him as well. Unfortunately, I didn't read the first two issues, so I'm playing catch up with this one...luckily, it wasn't difficult [...]

The marketing campaign for The Muppets has come with a great deal of hilarious parody, and today is no different. The three new posters are a twist on the three main characters of The Twilight Saga, Edward Cullen, Bella Swan, and Jacob Black (I knew these names off the top of my head---pardon me while I take a scorching hot shower and have a good cry). [...]
