Soapbox Sunday: Sour Grapes – Club Infinite Earths Doomsday was too Big

The Club Infinite Earths subscription was declared officially dead last week. So what? – the club exclusive Doomsday, if he had gotten enough subscribers to get him made, was too damn big anyways.

For this edition of Soapbox Sunday, let’s take a look at how Doomsday was portrayed with Superman in the comics that led to their mutual destruction – spoiler!

Free Shipping at NECA’s Kick Ass 2 3D Store this Weekend

If you are looking to customize your own Kick Ass 2 gear, now’s the time to do it. NECA is offering free shipping this weekend for their Kick Ass 2 3D Store – it’s basically a front end to Spreadshirt, one of the online print-on-demand stores – they happen to be my favorite of the bunch. The main difference here is that instead of creating your own bootleg t-shirts and such, this will all be above board and licensed.

I haven’t seen the movie, and was a little discouraged by what I saw online – I’d rather rely on word of mouth than reviews, but I can’t help what happens to pop up in the browser. Anyways, you guys can help – if you saw it, please let me know if it’s worth it to see while it’s still on the big screen. Thanks!

FREE SHIPPING on all purchases from the new Kick Ass 2 3D Store with promo code “KA2FREESHIP” !! Use the 3D features to design shirts, hats, and more with your favorite characters!

Offer valid through Sunday, August 25 (midnight PST) so head over to http://kickass2.mock.com and start designing today!

The Dark Knight Returns: Stone Cold – BillsComics.com

Bill has shared his latest comic, The Dark Knight Returns: Stone Cold. It’s Batman versus Mr. Freeze, set during the Dark Knight Returns era. (I guess “Old Man Bruce” doesn’t quite have the same ring to it.) Be sure to check out more of his comics at Bill’s Comics.
