not going out today, brb

I hate this day. No, I mean it, I really, really do. If I'm not made to feel like an ass, I'm disappointed because certain jokes just aren't true.

Harlan Ellison forms COMIC BOOK LEGAL OFFENSE FUND. I would be giddy with terror over the alliance of Harlan and Dave Sim, let me tell you.

Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev to adapt WAITING FOR GODOT. Bendis desperately needs to be kicked out of comics so he can become a playwright. In all seriousness, he has the ability to become the next Mamet. For better or worse.

Geoff Johns and Ethan Van Scriver's latest character resurrection: VIBE: REBIRTH. Hell, I'd happily take that over WIZARD's April Fool's joke article a number years ago about Paul Dini and Alex Ross doing an tabloid-sized fully-painted WONDER TWINS epic. My favorite part:

"There is a downside, though. Just as Ethan Van Sciver had to scale back his involvement with Blackest Night in order to do Flash: Rebirth, Geoff Johns won’t be available immediately for the post-Rebirth relaunch of The Flash. “I’m sure the fans will be happy to know,” Didio said, “that for the first six months of the ongoing, the Flash will be in Judd Winick’s capable hands.”

Winick himself was unavailable for comment."

As someone else already remarked on noscans_daily, man, that's cold.

You didn't happen to watch adult swim last night did you? They showed Tommy Wiseau's "The Room" at Midnight and 2:30am as their april fools joke. After alot of "wtf"-ing I finally found out via wikipedia and other sources that this movie has a huge cult following and is likely to become the next Rocky Horror. It is known as "The Citizen Kane of bad movies," making Tommy Wiseau the "Orson Welles of crap." He made it as a dramatic vanity piece "with the passion of Tennessee Williams," (he literally used this phrase on all the film's promotional material) but now calls it a black comedy because he can't screen the film without audiences laughing so hard they cry. Highly recommended.

I wanted to! I saw your post yesterday and I went to check, but for whatever reason, Cartoon Network was down on my cable yesterday! Just white noise! I dunno if it's back yet, but I am VERY sad to have missed it.

If this reaches you before 10:00-ish, could you please call Techie and make sure she's hiding in the laundry room? Ze Captain is worried, and would be greatly in your debt.

It's done, and she's fine! All is well!
