Three from Pronto

OK Kids, here is my latest comic from Pronto Comics, it is a B&W short entitled Perceptions, with art from David Quiles!


It joins my other two Pronto Comics, Hot Girl & Totally Hot Girl, and First In Flight (the story of Gustave Whitehead). I’m really very excited about this comic especially as it has now joined my other two books (alongside the rest of the Pronto line) up on IndyPlanet.com.

Guardians of the Galaxy

Well here it is kids, the full-length Guardians of the Galaxy trailer. To be sure, it really isn't the incarnation that I remember (from 1969) but I do recognize all of the characters.



Well, from this trailer, it looks like the film is not do much going to be the straight-up action flick that was the Avengers, but more of a tongue-in cheek fun romp — not that there is anything wrong with that.

Personally, we are really looking forward to seeing it.

JLA & General Mills: Round two!

Back in 2011 we were all excited about the teaming up of DC Comic’s Justice League of America and General Mills in that they combined forces to produce four mini comics that were inserted in cereal boxes.

Well, it seems that they have gone and done it again, producing five more comics with the JLA. We’ve already acquired one (well, two, as we got a duplicate). But we are now on the hunt to acquire the rest of this new set. Needless to say, we’ll probably hunt them up on ebay rather than keep buying cereal as we really don.t eat that much cereal any more.

Still we think that this is a very cool idea, and glad that they are choosing to keep the series going (the original four were numbered 1–4, and this new series is keeping the numbering going with 5–9).  Each issue is a stand-alone story with the last couple of pages appearing in an online mini-site

The five books in the free-with-purchase cereal series are:
  • #5 - Escape from Monster Island
  • #6 - Lost on Mars!
  • #7 - To Catch a Thief
  • #8 - Walking on Fire
  • #9 - Swap Meet
The stories being told in each of the five comic books will once again be continued online on a microsite located at BiggCerealHeroes.com.

The New Captain America Trailer

This is the new Captain America trailer that was supposed to air during the Superbowl. I didn't see it did I just miss it or did it not air?



Here is the longer version.



Very cool

The reviews are in for Owlgirls

Well, we are extremely pleased to announce that a couple of reviewers have weighed in on Owlgirls, and the response is overwhelmingly positive (three reviews, to of them loved it and we are discounting the third as being from the Russian Judge).

First up, is a review from Comics Bulletin where the Reviewer totally got what I as the writer was attempting to do in the comic's first issue.


Then there is one from Fanboy Comics where the reviewer also understood what we were going for witht he book.


If you are a reviewer and would like a review copy, please reach out to us and let us know so that we can get you a copy.

Non “Funny” Funnybooks on the Rise

We’ve been reading comics since around 1961. It is — as we’ve often said — our preferred form of entertainment. In fact, the guy we’ve been ...
