It’s 1998 again!
It sucks when a favorite comic book is cancelled. Back in 98, mine was Danger Girl. Yes, I loved the skimpy costumes and the overt sexual innuendo but mostly, I loved the art. J. Scott Campbell was a comic god to me (still is actually) so imagine my delight when I got a load of this cover.
Now imagine my annoyance that Mr. Campbell is only doing the cover art… Anyway, it turns out Abbey Chase will be making another foray back into my local comic book store in a little mash up with Army of Darkness. Now I admit, I have no idea what Army of Darkness is. But you can bet your mint edition copy of Batman #66 that I will be buying this comic.
Check out CBR‘s article.

Hela rockin’ the baddest headdress in comics by Arthur Adams.
Today’s freak show is Mandrill from Marvel Comics. This guy gives us Rogues the squicks. Even with R2’s strange attraction to Sabretooth, she wouldn’t touch this one with a 10 ft. pole. Jerome Beechman was born to parents that were exposed to radiation. At age ten, his father drove him out into the desert and abandoned him due to his ghastly appearance. There he finds Nekra and the two take each other in as siblings and begin their life of crime. Mandrill is currently in Hood’s Gang and imprisoned in the Raft. Now for what makes him creepy (other than his face). Mandrill possesses the chemically-based ability to attract and enslave most adult women to his will. Like many animals, Mandrill continually emits pheromones of great potency. Once a woman gets a hit of Mandrill’s pheromone emissions, her hormonal balance is altered, causing her to feel extreme physical attraction. The Mandrill’s mutant pheromones are released at a rate of 2,000 parts per million, several thousand times that of a normal human. Consequently, any woman within range (about 250 feet downwind, or in the direct path of the emission) is severely affected. Within seconds, most women become submissive and open to manipulation by Mandrill, similar to that of hypnosis. The mutagenically-altered structure of Mandrill’s sex pheromones is practically addictive. Subsequent exposure to Mandrill’s pheromones over a few months is enough to keep most women in his power permanently. However, if the woman is removed from his presence after initial contact, she will go through a mild period of withdrawal and be free after a few months. So ladies (if there are any out there?), just imagine pining over this face and we think you’ll understand why we’re so grossed out.

HOLY $#!T!
According to ReelChicago, The Dark Knight Rises will film in the UK, New Orleans, and….. DETROIT!!! As R2 and I live in the subs of D-Town we promise our readers that we will find out all we can until we are kicked out of the city and Christian Bale is done with us professionally. Now to go tell work I’m taking a leave of absence in May….
