X-Tinction Agenda with a DC TV architect?

April is Howard the Duck variant cover month for Marvel and here are six more -- these covers could function as a mini-FAQ for "famous images to parody" : American Gothic, check, Washington Crossing the Delaware, check, Iwo Jima, check and so on. I don't think there's been a Janet Jackson Rolling Stone cover parody yet, but give them time.

90s nostalgia, baby! Faith No More, a seminal MTV band that had great success with the whole hip hop/metal thing before hip hop won, is back with their first album in 17 years, since 1997's Album of the Year. But a new studio album, Sol Invictus drops on May 19th, and the first single has just debuted on Marvel.com, because a) bassist Bill Gould is a big Kirby/Silver Surfer fan (chatted with in link by Ryan Penagos) and b) the debut single is called "Superhero" and Marvel publishes Superhero comics.

Marvel's ark adds more of everything to the Secret Wars boat.

As Marvel's "Secret Wars" re-something or other rolls on, and Battleworld become a crushed pizza of mashed up worlds, more fan favorite comics are ending....for NOW. If Ms Marvel doesn't come back after Secret Wars I think there would be rioting—or at the very least harsh shunning.

As I was drying my tears following the dramatic conclusion of this week's episode of Agent Carter, 'Snafu', all I could think about was that I wanted more. More Hayley Atwell as Peggy Carter, whose range and presence eats up every frame of this small-screen show that plays like a big-screen adventure. More of the fabulous, smart dialogue and fantastic supporting cast; more of the beautiful costumes and period lighting -- just more! More than just next week's season finale.
