I say we get Toby to give his money back, eh?

A little bit of Spidey

So I'm in Virginia, visiting friends and family and, we were wandering down a street and found this cute little second-hand shop that had stuff piled on a table out front. While pawing through the toys on the table, I found this little Lego-like Spidey, and, well, had to have it.


Fun, eh?

Meanwhile, back at 7-eleven!

OK, I went back to 7-eleven and managed to score not only the four Iron Man Slurpee cups, but I also managed to score an IM bottle (like the War Machine bottle I grabbed last week).

When we were there I discovered that the Slurpee cups have Iron Man & War Machine lids that the previous shop didn't seem to have, so I asked, and the very nice woman behind the counter allowed me to grab a set of four to cap off my four IM Slurpee cups.

How cool is that?


So I now seem to have all of the 7-eleven Iron Man stuff, now I just have to wait for Burger King to get their toys in, which I believe will be May 1.

Free Comic Book Day is almost here!

That's right kids! Free Comic Book day is almost upon us!

Do you already have your route to the nearest comic shop mapped out? Do you know what free comic you're planning to read first, and which one you're saving for last? Better get ready, because Free Comic Book Day 10 (FCBD10), is only a month away!

We already know where we are going to be, at the Bronx Heroes Convention, at Hostos College in the Bronx. Yep, it promises to be a happening event. We will be there representing Atlas Unleashed (and rumor has it that we will have new product on us; how cool is that?).

However, if (like me) you can hardly contain yourself, you might want to check out these special PDF previews of the Gold Level comics that are going to be passed out at participating comic shops (and the Bronx Heroes Con), on FCBD 2010!

How cool is that, eh?

Iron Man 2 Slurpee cups!

As I previously mentioned, there are Iron Man 2 cups at 7-eleven, as part of the ramp-up to the film (due out on May 7). I already grabbed up the Big Gulp cups, a War Machine bottle, the the three straws.

Well, just yesterday I snagged the four Slurpee cups as well. Now I just need to get my hands on the Iron Man bottle.


The Iron Man 2 toys at BK won't appear for a couple of weeks still, but I'm looking!

MoCCA Magic

So, Atlas Unleashed spent the weekend at MoCCA Fest 2010 this past weekend, and well, we dd pretty well, Company bossman, Mark Mazz, Badgirl Shawnti Therrien, and yours truly were joined by friends and fans as we celebrated the Sundance Film Festival of the Indie Comic Art world.

We moved some of our product, (I sold a couple of three-packs of Agent Unknown, thanks to a wicked-cool cover art from Springload & Renegade artist Chris Torres, and superior production by Mr. Mazz).

We are now looking forward to our next event witch will be the Bronx Heroes Convention on Free Comic Book Day over at Hostos College in the Bronx. Hope to see you all there!

We'll have all of our backstock, as well as some brand spaknin'-new material that will be unveiled for the very first time.

How cool is that? eh?

Before I was “famous”

As I toil away on the Captain America entries for Volume #2 of The Official Index to the Marvel Universe (or Avengers, Thor & Captain America: Official Index To The Marvel Universe — as Vol 2 is officially called), I suddenly recalled that I had a letter of mine published in Captain America issue # 208.

That issue was cited in an on-line essay (interestingly enough) entitled NOTES ON THE GILL-MAN OF THE UPPER AMAZON,which talks about some lizard creature that apparently wandered through that particular issue of Cap.

The quote from below is from the article cited.

1976- While in a running battle with South American prison warden Hector "the Swine" Santiago, Steve Rogers, aka Captain America, runs afoul of the Gill-Man. The amphibious being eventually slays Santiago and his guards. ("The River of Death!" by Jack Kirby, Captain America #208, April, 1977.) In an attempt to make the Gill-Man look like a "new" monster, Kirby draws him with bulbous eyes and bright red scales. [The Marvel Universe is not the same as the Wold-Newton Universe, so presumably a mainstream Marvel title like Cap should be excluded. However, artist/writer Kirby has known Cap/Rogers since 1941, and in the Newtoniverse Cap sometimes opens his files to comic book legend Kirby. In fact, a letter from Robert Sodaro in this very issue states: "Since Jack started writing for Marvel again, the plotlines of CAPTAIN AMERICA. . . have had little if anything to do with the rest of the Marvel Universe."]

The body of letter itself appears here:


It is really just one of numerous LOCs I got into print during those days, and well, I just thought I’d share.
