I forgot to mention last week's GRD column that covered the Moonstone panel at C2E2. Lots of good Pulp stuff coming out from them in the near future, like the clunky robots and sorority girls vs aliens comic Zeroids.
I also got a press release from them today with some cover art for some of the projects mentioned on the panel. I love both of these Honey West covers.
More Pulp, Mignola gets a website, and Bone gets a cartoon after the break.
Can I just say that I'm about twelve times more excited about seeing Scarlett Johansson play an Amazon than I am to see someone besides Arnold Schwarzenegger play Conan?
Middleman RIP?
It could be too early to pronounce it dead, but I guess Middleman isn't doing very well and we should be prepared for the possibility that it won't be renewed. Which is really too bad because I started off being fond of the show and ended up falling in love with it. My fingers are crossed that - if it's not picked up again by ABC Family (which was always a weird fit anyway) - it'll find a home somewhere else with the exact same cast. Of course, I hoped that about Firefly too, but I'd rather be optimistic.
Bookgasm reviews the book and says, "The highest praise one could give it would be to say it’d make a terrific episode. And it would. The worst thing is that’s not already an episode, but hey, it’s the next best thing."
I respectfully think Rod achieves even higher praise though when he says, "You can hear the actor (Jeffrey Donovan) speaking every word in your head, and Goldberg doesn’t miss a beat. The turns of phrase, the sarcasm, the devil-may-care attitude — he has it all nailed. Someone needs to put him on the writing staff, unless it means he wouldn’t have the time to crank out a couple more of these."
ELA
I have to end with this because I sure can't top it.
