Straight (and Not) Out of the Comics

Filed under: HQ-Comics

But this year will be a banner one for diversity in the $500 million comic book business. At DC Comics, an effort is under way to introduce heroes who are not cut from the usual straight white male supercloth. A mix of new concepts, dusted-off code names and existing characters, the new heroes include Blue Beetle, a Mexican teenager powered by a mystical scarab; Batwoman, a lesbian socialite by night and a crime fighter by later in the night; and the Great Ten, a government-sponsored Chinese team.

MEET NEW ‘WITCHBLADE’ ARTIST ADRIANA MELO

Filed under: HQ-Comics

The witching hour is close at hand and change is in the air. As Top Cow Productions’ Witchblade reaches issue #100 in July, Mike Choi is passing his duties as penciler to Adriana Melo. The two will team up to pencil the milestone issue, with Melo taking over regular duties on the title starting with issue #101.[…]

Melo is part of Witchblade’s new all-female art team along with inker Mariah Benes (sister of Superman penciller Ed Benes) and colorist Sonia Oback. No newcomer to comics, Melo took the time to reflect with wizarduniverse.com on how she got started in comics and talk about her upcoming Witchblade work.

interessante o novo site de notícias da Wizard; ainda favorece muito Marvel e DC, tem poucas imagens, mas uma cara de serviço profisisonal de notícias, tão profissional quanto um site de HQ pode parecer…

Vibrant Leipzig defies dour image

Any World Cup fans who arrive early in Leipzig could be in for a big surprise.

Instead of the beer and bratwurst they may be expecting, the streets will be awash with mead, medieval markets, music - and extravagantly dressed Goths.

oil price increase affects comics

Filed under: HQ-Comics, Política

No one wants to be Batman anymore. The Batmobile is cool, but the darn thing runs on premium unleaded and gets horrible gas mileage.

OK, CBR can’t confirm the price of gas in Gotham City, but here in reality, gas prices have shot up from coast to coast. Americans are witnessing the highest gas prices on average they’ve ever seen. The AAA recently reported gas in the U.S. costing an average of $2.93 a gallon, a jump in price of 16 percent.

But does the price of ultimate unleaded matter to the Ultimates? Or, more specifically, does it have an affect on the people selling “The Ultimates” to make their living?

The answer is yes - gas prices are more dangerous than a back-stabbing Black Widow.

muito boa matéria de Seth Jones sobre como o aumento do barril de petróleo afeta os Quadrinhos.

Pupils perform ‘alarming’ feat

Filed under: Tech, Moda

A high-pitched alarm which cannot be heard by adults has been hijacked by schoolchildren to create ringtones so they can get away with using phones in class.

Techno-savvy pupils have adapted the Mosquito alarm, used to drive teenage gangs away from shopping centres.

They can receive calls and texts during lessons without teachers having the faintest idea what is going on

The alarm, which has been praised by police, is highly effective because its ultra-high sound can be heard only by youths but not by most people over 20.

Schoolchildren have recorded the sound, which they named Teen Buzz, and spread it from phone to phone via text messages and Bluetooth technology.

Now they can receive calls and texts during lessons without teachers having the faintest idea what is going on.

New World Record Established for Most People Dressed as Smurfs
26 May 2006

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) May 24, 2006 — 290 people from across the U.S. established the first world record for «Most People Dressed as Smurfs» this past Sunday during San Francisco’s famous «Bay to Breakers» foot race.

In establishing the record, participants donned traditional Smurf and Smurfette attire, complete with blue face paint, white pants or skirt, blue shirt and white hat. Organizers of the event aptly dressed as «Papa Smurf,» the 542 year-old village leader who wore red trousers and a red cap.

During the race, Smurfs took turns pushing a 12 foot tall «Magic Mushroom» (Smurf Cottage) outfitted with Smurf beverages, tunes and a DJ dressed as the notorious villain Gargamel.

vi outro dia um episódio de REBELDE e rolou uma jabazera fudida, mas de coisa boa: os 3 carinhas do RBD ouvindo o disco novo e entrevistando a banda “pela internet” prum trabalho da escola. e não acabava mais. o vídeo linkado tem 8 segundos mas na TV acho que durou uns 5 minutos hehe.

agora imagina a criançada que vê isso todo dia indo pra net agora baixar som da banda…

em tempo 1: CRIBS do Gorillaz.

em tempo 2: o ilustrador Jamie Hewlet, que é oficialmente 50% da banda [já o vi em entrevistas ao lado do Damon Albarn], ganhou prêmio de Designer do Ano do Design Museum. será que um dia ele volta a fazer HQ? hahahah

US releases 9/11 Pentagon video

Filed under: TV, Política

The US justice department has released the first video of the plane crashing into the Pentagon on 11 September 2001.

American Airlines Flight 77 slammed into the US military headquarters, killing 184 people, after it was hijacked as part of an al-Qaeda plot.

The release of the video, taken from a Pentagon security camera, comes after a Freedom of Information Act request by legal watchdog Judicial Watch.

The group said it hoped to dispel conspiracy theories about the crash.

The Master Speaks

Filed under: Música

Mötorhead singer Lemmy Kilmister explains what makes him irresistible to women.

Maxim: Você perdeu sua virgindade aos 18 anos. Como aconteceu?

Lemmy: Na praia, na chuva. Foi horroroso e tinha areia entrando em todos os
lugares. Sabe?

Maxim: E desde então você transou com duas mil mulheres…

Lemmy: Eu nunca falei “duas mil mulheres”. Eu falei que havia transado com
mil. Agora devem ser já umas mil e duzentas ou algo parecido. Faz muito
tempo que estou na estrada e nunca fui casado, então não tive folga.

Maxim: Um cara tem de ser bonito para impressionar as garotas?

Lemmy: Não é tanto ser bonito, é mais fazê-las rir. Garotas não se importam
muito com caras bonitos no final das contas. Isso ocorre porque elas todos
os dias colocam e tiram a maquiagem, e sabem o quanto beleza é superficial. (more…)
