DVD REVIEW- "White Scripts and Black Supermen" directed by Jonathan Gayes, PhD

White Scripts and Black Supermen cover art by John Jennings.

In college I minored in Social Science, a combination of Sociology and Psychology. This facilitated lots of ruminating on race, and the the many ways we talk about it as individuals and as a society. Also being a card-carrying comicbook nerd enthusiast, I jumped for joy at the thought of White Scripts and Black Supermen, a documentary featuring scholarly discourse focused on the genesis of black superheroes at all-white companies like Marvel and DC...

Multiple Warheads (Whale Restaurant) by Brandon Graham

That dude Brandon Graham dropped a new blog post this week, including a link to the Prophet #28 preview I posted yesterday. Anytime Brandon links to my blog, traffic spikes dramatically. I'll show my gratitude by stealing some of his art and posting it here, 'cause that's how the eff I roll...

Comicbook World #66 - Cougar's son goes Wolverine on roommate!

In comics, a hero's greatest enemy is often a friend gone bad. From the looks of it, life is imitating art again in Vernal, Utah where 19 year old Kristofer Ryan Huff allegedly attacked his roommate with Wolverine claws for giving his moms the ole fastball special...

(DOOM x Jneiro Jarel) + (Moredcai x Rigby) = GUV'NOR #doTheMath

"Sullivan's Sluggers" Wraparound cover, Baseball Cards, and more preview art

 If you're one of the three or four people in the universe that didn't back Mark Andrew Smith and James Stokoe's limited-edition baseball horror graphic novel Sullivan's Sluggers, you probably don't care about the front and back cover art (above) or any of the other preview art I posted below. But I'm showing it anyways, because I'm excited and stuff...

#IFWT- "Soda Girl and the Sugar Scouts" by Whitney Gardner

This is some black James Bond type shit... DAMN YOU, RON WIMBERLY!!! (not really)

I'm so mad at myself right now for not being more like Ron Wimberly... I mean, not in a "Damn, he fly, I'ma dress like/ draw like/ talk like him" kinda way... more of a "Fuck! He draws comics all the time and I don't" kinda way. Here's a short story of his called Africa? that I shamelessly snatched off'a Behance...

Official Video to "Grown Up" plus a few words about that dude Danny Brown

Is it possible? A Darius Davidson cartoon?

I already posted this drawing of my teenage adventurer Darius Davidson on Facebook, but I haven't said much about why.

(Romeo & Juliet) + Samurai sword warfare + hip hop = Ron Wimberly's "Prince of Cats"

I should really be drawing right now. So of course, I am sitting here sweating Prince of Cats, the upcoming hip hop remix of a that hoary olde Shakesperean classic Romeo & Juliet by the bard of the bristol boards Ron Wimberly (known the world over as D-Pi). Since I am not quite important enough to get DC/Vertigo's press releases sent to me directly, I just ripped some art off Wimberly's Tumblr, cuz that's how the eff I roll...

#nowPlaying "WHOOP ASS" by Oh No f/Sticky Fingaz

If you can look at the cover to Oh No's new plate OhNomite and not want to buy it on sight, well... I can't be your friend anymore. Don't take it too hard, but if this cover art by Charles Munka (art direction by the mighty Jeff Jank) doesn't make you wanna buy this record... you know, put ACTUAL MONEY down for it... then we have nothing in common. This relationship's not going anywhere, so it's best that we part ways now. No hard feelings...

VIDEO: BLACK DYNAMITE PANEL from SDCC

Feast your eyes on the people that get paid to make folks mad on the large and small screens with their blaxploitation sensation Black Dynamite. There's 22 and a half minutes of panel, about 6 minutes of which is the introductions. But they're pretty funny too, so peep...
