There’s a second Daredevil trailer out, and Alistair Reid on the Tagline blog explains why it sucks.

Oh yeah, there’s also a Matrix Superbowl trailer. Less exciting. Show the movie already.

I should really go off and vote already, but I got distracted by the The Hulk Superbowl Trailer. They even set up Andrew Rilstone’s weak joke.

The latest issue of Uncanny X-Men I got (I should drop it, I don’t really read it, but whatever) has a new Japanese artist, who draws in a “Manga” style. I think Marvel are making a big deal out of it and using it to give the comic a bit of a push. The funny thing is that he draws everyone in the comic with great big fucking noses. I mean huge honkers. And the reason he does that, I suspect, is that he’s drawing Europeans (i.e, Caucasians, non-Japanese, white folk), and that’s how westerners look like, to Japanese.

Warren Ellis’ Die Puny Humans blog is where he practices his photo-captioning skills, among other things. One I really liked was this alternative Christmas Card, featuring a well-known comics writer…
