Super Beer?


Action Comics 869

Are Jonathan and Clark Kent drinking beer?

Rich Johnston burps, "Yes."


Tom Toles


Back in biblical times, when I loitered around SUNY Buffalo, Tom Toles was the editorial cartoonist at the
Spectrum, the university newspaper. (I was music editor of ethos, the school magazine. Among the editors I tortured was Stuart Berger [RIP], who later became a famous diet doctor. He was large AND in charge when I knew him and a real trip. We got along great, since I always seemed to make him laugh.)

But I digress. Toles went on to be the editorial cartoonist at the Buffalo News and is now the guy at the Washington Post.

Here's his latest.

Fr@#k Miller




Drops the F-Bob, but had no idea. Want 3 copies for himself, of course. Bagged and boarded, too?

I'm a fan, but...



...these folks are FANS. (Thanks to the irrepressible, incomparable Kelson the Mighty and his buddy, The Captain!)

Coming next week!

And Grant Morrison sits for an interview (apparently by e-mail) with Newsarama; though fanboys are still complaining that Final Crisis is too hard! Wahhhhh!!!

Jack Kirby invented the iPhone!



At least according to the pulse-pounding, senses-stunning Fake Stan Lee blog he did.

Excelsior!

Brad Meltzer loves Superman

Yeah, well, my three kids each had birth announcements drawn by the artist who was currently penciling Superman. (And no, I'm not going to post 'em online.) But props to Brad.

In the meantime, I have some thoughts about the notion of a darker reboot of the Superman movies... coming soon.
