Blastr (formally Sci-Fi Wire) is putting up a lot of good bits and pieces at the moment. The latest little thing that’s bought a smile to my face is this link to an drawing of real planets compared to fictional ones.

Be sure to pay proper attention to the final couple in the “far, far away region”- a good little joke. But while we’re at it; in this world of new Star Trek, should Vulcan also be listed as “recently destroyed”?

DC Comics, I’ve got one word for you…

NO!

Leave it alone. Put it down. Stop messing… AHH.. put it down! Thats better.

I hope this story isn’t true. Do you?

Hey Guys,

Latest trailers are out for Kick Ass and it’s definitely looking like it will be a lot of fun. For those not in the comic world Kick Ass has been a very new (not even finished yet) and exciting comic series by Scottish writing maestro Mark Millar.

He was also the guy behind Wanted although, in my opinion the film adaptation was a bit hollow. Enjoyable but empty. Kick Ass is looking like a much more faithful adaptation however of a simple, yet brilliant idea.

Standard high school nerd Dave is fed up of being nothing, he decides to trade in his boring life for something worth while, becoming the first “real” superhero. He has no powers, no advanced skills he’s just a teenager with some ambition. As usual Millar’s world doesn’t show any mercy and Kick Ass is soon full of stabbing, blood and torrents of swearing, all of it of course, entirely enjoyable.

Check out the trailers below to see if they wet you appetite for the movie, plus five straight away for using Bad Reputation in the soundtrack. (more…)

What would Watchmen have been like if it had been made into an animated series for kids in the 1980s? This rather amazing video hazards a guess…
