  1. You are right. Did some research and found out he has made arrangements for his body of work (Cerebus, Judenhass, Glamourpuss) to fall into the public domain following his death.

     

    Absolutely crazy. :facepalm:

     

    Waitacottonpickinminute. I can write a Cerebus comic after he dies?? Cerebus 301, here I come! Cerebus: Really Latter Days. Cerebus Meets Frankenstein. A Cerebus Christmas Carol. Romeo & Cerebus.

     

    I know. :o I double checked and then triple checked. Its true.

     

    Actually, Judenhass is already public domain as of November 2014. I am amazed that no one has captalized on it yet.

     

  2. I have said this before. Stan Sakai will sell the rights to Usagi Yojimbo, it is only a matter of time. Unfortunately, with the passing of his wife the odds are even better now. Hopefully he will sell to Nickelodeon so Usagi Yojimbo can join the TMNTs. :wishluck:

     

    I would not be surprised if Nickelodeon is actively searching for its next property to purchase especailly with the success of TMNT.

     

    Why do you think this?

     

    IMO

     

    Stan Sakai is getting older and over the last 2 years he has been setting things up to sell the property. Starting with a short animated film, theatre production, new website, returning back to the Usagi Yojimbo comic series, etc... and all this was done while his wife was sick. I feel he was rebranding Usagi Yojimbo to sell.

     

    There are many creators like Dave Sim (Cerebus)

     

     

    I think Dave'll die poor before he lets a studio basturdize cerebus. I just can't see that one happening.

  3.  

    TMNT has been a hit for Nickeldeon. TMNT film (2014) alone paid for entire TMNT property. Nickelodeon paid 60 million for TMNT. The TMNT film made a profit of 80 million after expenses and that is not including DVD sales & merchandise.

     

     

    wow, that's wild. The one movie paid for the rights :ohnoez:

     

    I said the same thing. One movie paid for the rights and if TMNT wasn't competing with GOTG at the same time it would have made more money.

     

    When the rights were sold, we all thought it was to low. We were right.

  4. I have said this before. Stan Sakai will sell the rights to Usagi Yojimbo, it is only a matter of time. Unfortunately, with the passing of his wife the odds are even better now. Hopefully he will sell to Nickelodeon so Usagi Yojimbo can join the TMNTs. :wishluck:

     

    I would not be surprised if Nickelodeon is actively searching for its next property to purchase especailly with the success of TMNT.

    There are many creators like Dave Sim (Cerebus), Jeff Smith (Bone), Sergio Aragones (Groo), Matt Wagner (Mage & Grendel), Neal Adams (Bucky O'Hare), Stan Sakai (Usagi Yojimbo) from the 1980s that really need to sell thier properties.

I haven't even talked about the cartoons, comics, video games & the TMNT 2 film yet.

     

    If I had to guess, Nickelodeon is probably looking at Bone as their next purchase. Nickelodeon has wanted to purchase Bone and/or distribute movies since the 1990s.

  6. I hit up 8 or 9 shops this week and found no copies of AF 15 Vol 2. It wasn't like the stores were all picked clean because I found loads of other good stuff in the hunt. The lack of copies on ebay is unreal

     

    The store I usually find stuff like that had none either. But I found 4 Marvel now point ones for cover there.

     

    You won't find any because people already hyped this book a year or 2 ago in this thread.

  7. I don't know how to add a spoiler tag, but since it says spoiler in the title...

    Mega Buzz: The Flash to Introduce Multiple Universes

    On The Flash's Tuesday finale, Barry (Grant Gustin) travels back in time to try and save his mother's life, and thus also save his father from a life in prison. That seems like a fairly noble mission, until you take into account all the repercussions traveling that far back in time could have on the world.

     

    Gustin admits Barry's trip to the past "doesn't necessarily go as planned," and that everything we knew about his future -- including his future marriage to Iris (Candice Patton) -- is now up in the air. But that might not be the biggest news. "What's fun about this show is that there's going to be multiple timelines as we move forward," Gustin says. "I think we're going to start showing Earth-One and Earth-Two in the near future. There will be kind of different dimensions going on."

     

    Why we need the Arrow-Flash spin-off

     

    In DC Comics, Earth-One and Earth-Two are only a few of the parallel universes that make up the elaborate multiverse. Having an Earth-One and Earth-Two within The Flash would open up radical new possibilities for the show, including alternate versions of characters we already know or even new versions of the same superheroes, such as Jay Garrick's The Flash or perhaps the superhero or villain sides of Cisco Ramon (Carlos Valdes) and Caitlin Snow (Danielle Panabaker).

     

    However, having parallel universes could make the future cross-overs with Arrow and Legends of Tomorrow that much trickier. "It gets a little Rubik's Cube-y in terms of keeping consistency between all these timelines and whatnot," Valdes says. "But the writers have their stuff together. If I were to trust anyone, it would be them."

     

    The Flash's first season finale airs Tuesday at 8/7c on The CW.

     

    (Full disclosure: TVGuide.com is owned by CBS, one of The CW's parent companies.)

     

    Crisis of Infinite Earths hm

  8. about 11 days and 21 hours until the season finale, in which there's allegedly some mind blowing stuff in the last 10 minutes

    Two people I talked too about Flash says this is the best show on TV.

    The best man at my wedding who is in his forties, and my 22 year old nephew.

    So I guess it`s a hit for all ages.

    I liked it myself.

    I haven`t watched them all yet, but will do now with all the good buzz.

     

     

    Episode 15 "Out of Time" will blow your mind.

  9. Don't like it.

     

    1. Get rid of the tattoo on the forehead and metal teeth.

    2. Change the deck of cards tattoo to Jokers not Aces.

    3. Change 1 of the smile tattoos to a Harley Quinn related tattoo.

     

    If this is the new Joker, I can't even imagine what Harley Quinn would look like.

     

    I don't know what DC/WB is doing but you can't market this Joker to the general public especially children.

  10. Once again, Kamala Khan was purposely placed in Captain Marvel #14 for a reason. There is no debate for Captain Marvel #14 as 1st Appearance.

     

    Captain Marvel writer Kelly Sue DeConnick revealed that Khan actually made a brief appearance in Captain Marvel #14 (August 2013) saying, "Kamala is in the background of a scene in Captain Marvel 14... She is very deliberately placed in a position where she sees Carol protecting civilians from Yon-Rogg."

    So funny, I was just about to write that. This is as far as I got.

     

    Maybe I think differently but did anyone ever think that they might use more than 1 spider-man.

     

    Spider-Man (Peter Parker) gets hurt during Civil War. Spider-Man returns at the very end of the movie to reveal himself as Miles Morales or even Miguel O'hara :o

    I recall buying the VHS and it being Todd talking about how awesome he is, and it had a good amount of Spawn content. I didn't like the mini comic since at the time Pearson didn't compare to Todd. Regardless, this was literally years after Spawn #1.

     

    I don't think it was years as the facts and illusions set has a date of 1992 on it. The vhs comic set must have packaged after the August SDCC though because that's where the footage is from but I have no idea when the mini comic was published. It's something that definitely warrants further research for Spawn fans.

     

    Let me end this debate.

     

    Crusade of Comics Presents Spawn #1 (released 8/92 @ SDCC)

    1st Appearance of Lotus

     

     

     

    Origin of Spawn retold

    Sam, Twitch & Violator Appearance

     

    The mini-comic was then repackaged with "Facts and Illusions" & "Lotus" Package with Spawn #1 and given out at 1993 SDCC and sold through retailers like Wal-Mart.

     

    The mini-comic was given out at the 1992 SDCC and then again in 1993 packaged with VHS.

     

    This is always what I thought, but I could never prove it. Do you have any type of copyright info, or something that shows these dates?

     

    yea it would be nice to have definative proof, some internet resources claim a publication date of jan 1992 which has not been proven either. it would be nice to know the print run also.

     

    All those sites do that when there is no month indicated but the year is known.

     

    Also you can just email or call Gladstone Publishing about the comic.

    1. I bought several mini-comics a few years ago from a dealer who got them at the 1992 SDCC. Did some research on the net and thought they were packaged with VHS. See Spawn #1 Thread. Returned to dealer and asked about the package. Told the Crusade of Comics Presents Spawn #1 was an ashcan or mini-comic given out in 1992 and the package was 1993.

     

    2. Bought 2 cases of the "Lotus" package a few months back. 1 sealed case marked 1993 (in storage) and another case of 29 packages from Walmart marked 1993 & 1994. The Walmart case had some returns for defective VHS tapes with notes & price stickers. Walmart original price tag was $18.96 per package.

     

    Copyright dates indicated.

  17. LATINO REVIEW: The Fates Of Cap, Thor, Spidey

     

     

    -----------------------

    Which brings us to May 4th, 2018 - Avengers: Infinity Wars Part 1. Here's what I understand: Steve Rogers is not in this movie. He is dead. Thor is not in this movie, he is imprisoned. Spider-Man IS in this movie, the Sony deal went through.

     

    I don’t have the exact details nor a paper trail, but I’m told we’ll see an MCU Spider-Man in Infinity Wars Part 1, as that was the next logical place to insert him after they missed the window to logically include him in Civil War.

     

    It’s sounding like Infinity War Part 1 will be the first true test of our New Avengers team (line-up still pending, but here are the potentials: Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch, Vision, Black Panther, Dr. Strange, Ant-Man, Wasp, Captain Marvel, Luke Cage, Daredevil, Iron Fist, Jewel/Power Woman (Jessica Jones), ANY of the New Inhumans (Ms. Marvel - Kamala Khan, Reader, etc..), ANY of the classic Inhumans, ANY of the Guardians of the Galaxy (Starhawk, etc...) and ANY Cosmic (Adam Warlock, Korvac, Quasar, etc..) Marvel characters Guardians chooses to send to Earth...oh, and Spider-Man (Miles Morales)). However, Infinity Wars Part 1 won’t include any of our classic Phase 1 and 2 Avengers because…

     

    ...they’ll all return in Infinity Wars Part 2.

    -----------------------

     

    If this is true...

     

    :whee::whee::whee::whee::whee:

     

     

    Just a few hints. (see above) Took off spoiler tag as it is only speculation for now.
