Monday Runaround – DNA, Mohammed Ali And DumplingsBoomWatch: Looks like Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning's Hypernaturals series at Boom! is being played out in a rather Marvel-tweaking fashion…

BoomWatch2: Iron Muslim gets its first review. They won't all be as good as this, but I'm glad I read this one first.

"If you feel no guilt spending your grownup money on fictional adventures of men in costumes beating the tar out of each other while absurdly diatribing on whatever sociopolitical issues the scripter was otherwise reading up on while taking nightclasses for a better job, then you know you want this."

Former Preston College art lecturer Bryan Talbot is back in the city with his wife for a discussion session on their work in comics.

SingaporeWatch: Magic finds a comic book comparison to make.

ShirtWatch: Brad Meltzer and Chris Eliopolous celebrate American heroes with cartoon T-shirts, in USA Today.

The website OrdinaryPeopleChangeTheWorld.com is the newest — and most fashionable — brainchild of the best-selling author, comic-book writer and host of History channel's Decoded.

Inspired by two books Meltzer wrote for his children, Heroes for My Son and Heroes for My Daughter (out Tuesday), the site will sell T-shirts designed by Meltzer and comic-book artist Chris Eliopoulos to celebrate six icons: Lucille Ball, Amelia Earhart, Eleanor Roosevelt, Muhammad Ali, Abraham Lincoln and George Washington.

Each will have an inspirational message on the back. Earhart's shirt reads, "I know no bounds," and on Ali's is "I will never apologize for who I am."

StripWatch: Thomas Alsop: The Case Of Dead Uncle by Chris Miskiewicz and Palle Schmidt begins on Trip City today.

"Thomas Alsop is an occult investigator who's been charged with the task of protecting Manhattan from supernatural events. He also has a popular cable TV show, and a love for dumplings."
