Image Announces Blind Boxes For 25th Anniversary
By Dustin Cabeal
Ah man... I should have been consulted on this. I would have done used pairs of Kirkman's underwear. Dick pics from the Sex Criminal creators. A picture of someone's Savage Dragon tattoo, with permission to copy the tattoo on your body as long as you put a "limited 2/2" somewhere near it. A signed original copy of one of Eric Stephenson's "comics, you're all at fault" speeches. A lawsuit settlement check for $1.00 from Todd McFarlane preventing you from suing him in the future. The ideas are endless, but you can see what Image decided upon for their 1,992 blind boxes... which are more of mystery polybags, but I guess that was harder to market or something.

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Co-Creator Reimagines "Jane Eyre" at BOOM!
By Dustin Cabeal
Don't get me wrong, I'm curious about this graphic novel. Here's the but, BOOM! has been announcing a lot of Hollywood writers on their comics and that's disheartening. Even when I didn't love something the publisher published I always respected the fact that they were still heavy on the comic book development side of the business. The broke in new writers and artists yearly, but now... from the writer of Legally Blonde, from the co-creator of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. It's like they're patrolling the back lots of Fox looking for writers. I'm not excited by this because it's starting to look like a trend. We'll see, ECCC is just around the corner.

Two Words: Tradd Moore - Preview Venom #150
By Dustin Cabeal
It might just be a page, but fucking hell is it a good looking page. I would read all kinds of Venom with Tradd Moore on the series. Too bad there wouldn't be a story worthy of his talent, but we'll see what Costa's got. Also remember when Brook had cancer and the symbiote could only do one more bond and Spider-Man tricked it into bonding with Brock and sentenced both of them to death? Yeah, me neither I guess.
