I posted the “Snarf about to tear Mumm-Ra a new one” picture in case my old RU colleague The Blockbuster Chick sees this. 😀
Speaking of people I know, BW Virtual Mentor Jerzy Drozd recently posted a talk he did at his favorite stomping grounds, the Ann Arbor District Library, discussing how 80s shows can demonstrate how to tell stories to kids (and maybe even adults), whether they were about selling toys or not!

I don’t know how many younger readers know who Atari is, but they were part of my gaming history. I still have my Atari 800 computer. Someone at Dynamite seems to want to tap into that nostalgia. Bleeding Cool is announcing that Dynamite will be partnering with Atari’s current rights holder to release a series of comics based on Atari games…as well as reprinting DC’s Atari Force comic. I hope that includes the mini-comics that were released with Atari games. Once ConnectiCon is over I’m going to have to make that the next Free Comic Inside.

“Rebellion” part 1 WRITER: Ryder Windham ARTIST: Ian Gibson COLORIST: Perry McNamee COVER ART: Kilian Plunkett LETTERER: Ellie DeVille BOOK DESIGN: Scott Tice EDITOR: Peet JanesTell others about the Spotlight:
As DC and Warner Brothers continue to ruin the Man Of Steel I am on the search for others who see Superman the way I do and create stories with THAT Superman. Superman Classic is real short (so I’m including the follow-up, Bizzaro Classic) but still shows more love for the Superman that became a cultural icon than the people who currently own the character.
