Something to watch for in 2013- "PART TIME SHUFFLE" by James Stanley aka @BeefyKunoichi (interview)

This is an interview I did a while back with James Stanley aka Beefy Kunoichi. Dude is part of the growing legions of black anime/ manga/ gaming fans out there constructing worlds in the privacy of their own homes, and a proud graduate of the Savannah College of Art and Design. I think he is bound to be a brand name in comics, and I think you'll agree. I did this interview for GhettoManga Quarterly, but since I'm feeling generous again, here it is in its entirety for free consumption...

Corey Lewis to release new anthology at Emerald City Comicon?!?!

Because I'm a big dork for his comix, I freaked out when Corey Lewis mentioned that he was planning to drop his first full-color self-published book -tentatively titled Sunbakery-in time for Emerald City Comicon in early March. He describes it as "a self-anthology of (at least 3) short comic stories, and another section of pure artwork." That sounds too dope for words... Anyways, I couldn't find any pics on his page identified as being in the book, so here's a bunch of pics I snatched on geepee...

Check out the latest trailer for DJANGO UNCHAINED!

I don't know how I'm gonna pull it off, but I definitely wanna try to catch Django Unchained on Christmas Day. With all the Wertham-like hysteria about violence in the media lately, I need to go see something where lotsa bad, bad people get kilt on screen (with the full knowledge that it's all just pretend)...

"Is it the end or for pretend? I can neither condemn nor defend..." -MF DOOM

Classic animated Madvillain video- "Strange Ways"

Album Review- "City Beautiful" by Adam WarRock

Like a lotta nerdcore rappers, there's something a little off about Adam WarRock. He strikes me as a dude that will never be popular with traditional hip hop fans, but I bet that's fine with him...

THISSSSS...

Glory #33 doesn't come out until February 27th, but I had to post this cover now, just in case the Mayan apocalypse does us in first.
