Grant Morrison tals with IGN’s Dan Phillips about a deadlier, creepier Joker (I thought he was already pretty deadly and creepy, but he’s one bad guy that can never be bad enough), the RIP tie-ins, Final Crisis, Libra and more. Read the full article at IGN.
Plus here’s some artwork from the article, including 5 beautiful Alex Ross Covers thumbnails for you to click on and view larger…

I just installed a new plugin that let you see any image links superimposed over the current Page!!!! No more extraneous back button usage! I’m always looking for ways to make this blog more user friendly so PLEASE offer any suggestions that come to mind.
Discovered YET ANOTHER gay porn clips sharing site! Lucky you! this one seems to have some good stuff. And complete scenes… Only drawback is the trampy ladies they show as the clip buffers. They should have a program smart enough to show trampy boys if you embed a gay video. Maybe if you all go to megarotic.com and say please?
Dudetube posted this great shot of an enthroned Spider Woman / Skrull Empress (or is she? Jessica Drew was already a double agent, wouldn’t put it past her to be a quadruple agent) from a variant cover for Secret Invasion 3.
And as usual Dudetube finds the hottest clips from xTube…

This goes out to the Muppet fans out there – you know who you are…
A grad student made this little short, splicing together some vintage Muppet Show footage with Peaches’ “Fuck the Pain Away” so that we can all appreciate a slightly more updated, bawdier Piggy telling us all how she really gets through the night when Kermit scorns her.

Perry Moore, author of Hero has been in talks to bring his gay superhero coming of age origin to the small screen. Moore claims to be 2 for 2 after pitching two networks and receiving two offers from which to choose. “We’ll announce any day, hopefully, who we’re going to do it with.”
Hero, is the story of high school basketball star Thom Creed, who happens to be the only child of a now infamous disgraced crime fighter. Not only does Thom have to deal with a missing mother and strange new powers he doesn’t understand, he also has to come to terms his attraction to the strange and mysterious Dark Hero. Will Thom save the world and find a boyfriend in the process? You bet!
Its kind of like Harry Potter if Harry was a gay superhero instead of a straight wizard. It’s a young adults book and although as a lifelong comic reader I found some parts a mite predictable, I still thoroughly enjoyed every moment of the read (well the basketball game opening scene didn’t do much for me, but it picked right up after that).
Kudos to Moore on the interest his project has garnered… He has Stan Lee in his corner, as Producer working to get Hero off the page and into our living rooms.

Finally after a loooong wait, DC Direct has announced the release date and line up for the third wave of action figures based on the recent relaunch of Justice League of America. After a craptastic throwaway line in Series 2, (Batman – has been done better, Hawkgirl – JSA is far superior, Amazo – who cares, and Dr. Impossible – only use is as a bade for Obsidian if you customize), this time they got it right.
Series 3 includes:GEO-FORCE!!!!!! (Yay my psychotic Tara Markov gets to hang near her big bro), Flash, Green Lantern – Hal, and Wonder Woman – I like the Dodson version, but this should appease those who didn’t like that Dodson’s was pre-posed). CHECK THESE OUT!
I couldn’t find a DDay linked up with that identifier. Giving up…
mySpace friend KirwanArts sent me this great image. Check out his erotic illustrations, cartoons, photos, and hot stories at kirwanarts.com
Maybe if we ask real nice he’ll send us some more!
If you are an gay artist and have some sexy comics themed erotica, don’t hesitate to send me something. Always on the lookout for talented gay artists. Keep watch for some of MY drawings of sexy superheros, coming soon!

Ka-zar strolls into the fray in New Avengers 41. Should have seen that coming, duh! it IS the Savage Land! If I hadn’t been so distracted by the skrullapalooza I’d have expected him to show up before this. Especially since I just read he had a fling with Mockingbird when she was plain old S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Barbara Morse! From the line up down the the Savage Land, Bendis loves confusing triangles.
I’ve always been partial to Ka-zar, and its not just because he is an English nobleman turned jungle lord with the recently waxed body of an underwear model, fabulous hair with no product for miles and his own giant prehistoric sabertooth tiger. OK, maybe it is, but that’s neither here nor there. Anyway he’s showing up in Secret Invasion next Thursday (DON’T FORGET MEMORIAL DAY DELAYS SHIPPING).
He’s looking fine as always. Oh yeah, he brought that woman he’s always with. His beard, Shanna the She-Devil (well in my version anyway).
Marvel Studios isn’t taking any time off to rest on their Iron laurels. In addition to their recent announcement of big screen adaptions of Captain America, Thor, Ant-Man and the Avengers, they’ve just told the Hollywood Reporter that the next Marvel property added to the production queue is Runaways (created by Brian K. Vaughan and Adrian Alphona). Recently promoted Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige will be reprising his role as producer.
Like Ant-Man, Runaways is only in the incubation stages with no release scheduled, but it is significant in that although critically acclaimed (winner of 2006 Harvey Award for best continuing/limited series), the Runaways are far from a tried and true Marvel legend. They are a band of ragtag superpowered teenagers who discover their parents are super villains known as “the Pride” (alien conquerers, time traveling thieves, dark mages and mad scientists etc) and then take them down. Also unusual is that none of these young heroes (or their parents) have preexisting ties to any other characters in the Marvel Universe prior to their debut in 2002 (though I’m sure some writer will retcon some history one of these days).
