"All I've been able to gather is that for some bizarre reason, Wizard has targeted Super-Fly for attendance at this show and is prepared to do what it takes to get us there… except offer reasonable price points or to stop harassing us when asked directly to stop harassing us."

Monday Runaround – Blistering BarnaclesLogoWatch: Which Lantern ring does Quicksilver use?

NYCCWatch: ComicsBeat looks at the layout of this, and past New York Comic Cons and speculates as to the future look of the show, and consideres security issues;

"Pre-registered badges were mailed.  Neither I or my co-worker received those badges.  Were they swiped in the mailroom?  Were they lost in the mail?  Scalped on eBay?

"Unknown.  But it was quite easy to visit Javits on Wednesday to pick up my badge.  Registration just notated my barcode printout and gave me a badge."

SatireWatch: Today's cartoon for Guido Fawkes. Terribly satirical if you're European.

Monday Runaround – Blistering BarnaclesThis is Computo the Comic Link Conqueror speaking. I come for your women. But for now I merely collate comic-related bits and pieces online. One day I will rule. Until that day, read on.

They say I am a work in progress. The fools.

The Hero Initiative: Tom Ziuko reminds us: ANY time is a good time

In terms of credits, well…Tom Ziuko has a raft of them as a comic colorist: Crisis on Infinite Earths, Action Comics, Superman, some Hellblazer stuff I remember very well, and the beat goes on. Dude has a resumé to die for. Alas…he almost did. Tom has been laid low by kidney problems of late, but always soldiers on. Hero Initiative has helped him in that soldiering of late, and…maybe it's best just to let Tom take it from here:

Comic book legend Stan Lee inspired by Newcastle-born wife – Sunday Sun

"I was born in Gosforth, and grew up there and in Fawdon," she said. "It was about a mile out of town on one of the blue buses. They called us Geordies, or Fighting Northumbrians, because we were the hardest fighters in the war."

Neal McDonough talks 'Captain America', staying in shape – Page 2 – ESPN

"Listen, I'm in better shape than all those guys!" said the 45-year-old McDonough, who must not have remembered that buff Chris Evans was the lead. "I could bench a house. I looked like a behemoth."

Retcon This! The Deaths of Ralph & Sue Dibny : Panels on Pages

The New 52 is a perfect opportunity to bring them back. With no need to explain exactly how they returned due to the reboot (especially with the exact canonicity of events like Blackest Night and it's ilk in question), they're free to just show up like none of the preceding events have ever happened. They could return as the fun-loving, mystery solving couple we all know and love.

AIGA National Conference's Top Four Moments of "Self-indulgence" — Imprint-The Online Community for Graphic Designers

And speaking of "idiot," Michele Bachmann's most recent utterance had so outraged Chip Kidd that he decided at the last minute to preface his talk with a frontal assault on the Minnesota congresswoman and her ilk, labeling them "DoucheBoobs."

Should Michigan Taxpayers Have Been Forced to Spend $30 Million on 'Iron Man 3'? [Michigan Capitol Confidential]

"We will have learned from the Iron Man lesson," Richardville said. "That's one thing about this administration — you can't be perfect with everything you do. … The governor would be the first to admit that he made mistakes. … They learned from that and now are out negotiating on a Steven Spielberg movie, and I can't really get into a whole lot of detail now. You could be hearing something very, very exciting over the next couple of weeks."
