He has posted the first few pages, and the first book will be available for free on free comic book day.

“The Astounding Wolf-Man” is the story of workaholic CEO Gary Hampton. While on a rare family vacation, he’s bitten by a werewolf. Cursed to live his nights as a werewolf, Gary works to use these evil powers for the greater good. Werewolves are evil by design and this book is about the struggle to do good when your body is meant for evil. It’s a horrible curse being a werewolf, but what Gary does have going for him is that he is incredibly wealthy. His alter-ego is therefore incredibly well-funded. “The Astounding Wolf-Man” is a full-on costume- wearin’, lair-havin’ superhero!

I don’t know if I will use this long term, but I’m trying it. I can’t spell, and I like word compeltion (without all the crazy T9 stuff).

Another interesting article on passwords, and how easy they are to guess or brute force.

Remember, these are just for an average computer, and these assume you aren’t using any word in the dictionary. If Google put their computer to work on it they’d finish about 1,000 times faster.

I really do love me some Venture Brothers.

Fashioned by the mysterious Doc Hammer deep within the labyrinthine bowels of the orbiting AstroBase, this “teaser” (so-called for its uncanny ability to tease money from your grubby paws) was constructed exclusively for the select audience who attended the Venture Bros. panel at this year’s New York Comic-Con

Man I am a Justice League dork this week. I just got my JLU season 3 DVD set in (and Batman Beyound season 3). I got in a a Justice League related argument with the guys at the comic book store yesterday, while I was picking up my weekly subs. And I have posted three times in the Cinimatical thread linked below.

Well, IESB is now reporting that, according to their super secret inside studio source, Batman will definitely be in the JLA movie … if it happens. In fact, Christian Bale even has a clause in his three-picture contract that allows him to star in one “ensemble” film as Batman.

Finally, a funny movie about magicians instead of all these super serious ones.

Suck my wand?  Its magic.

I liked a nice family friendly film occasional. Mind you I would rather watch Grindhouse, but this looks good too.

I love penny arcade anyway, but this is one of those ones that makes me keep going back to read it.

Part of it is probably the sheer scale of the events you are taking part in. Kratos is literally pruning the Greek pantheon as he prowls from game to game. Deactivating them omnipresent warheads or averting global conflict should motivate, and deeply, but God of War’s brutality has a spiritual dimension
that the stock metanarrative which runs through so many games doesn’t
have. You aren’t fighting with your best blood in order to simply
retain the status quo. Every time you swing a sword, you are shifting
an epoch.

I really,really liked series 1, and liked series 2, and series three looks like it could be fun.

High quality copy of the March Trailer.
