I recently found out on Facebook that Chris Ryall of IDW has been doing some work together with the amazing Sal Buscema. They had done some work on Mars Attacks when Sal did this for Ryall as a bonus. How cool is that?
Wanted to add a Saturday update to this posting thanks to what showed up in the mail today. I now have my very own copy of Bill Mantlo: A Life Time In Comics so I decided to do a video review of it for those of you who unfortunately may not have a copy of your own:

As I was reviewing my own video on Youtube this other one came up in the preview column. In this one the dude is reviewing a bunch of back issues he's found at the flea market which included some Jack of Hearts and Rom issues. Aside from that this guy is a Bill Mantlo fan and throws in some other cool elements into this video which include some stuff he picked up from this blog. Be warned he drops the
"F" bomb a lot : )

I'd buy that for way more than a dollar. Way too cool for words.
ReplyDeletenice little Robocop reference. by the way i sent you something on Facebook from Cal Berkeley today you'll enjoy.
DeleteDoes this imply that Martians are dire wraiths?
ReplyDeletei'm sure there's a parallel universe in which they are. but it's also possible he's just fighting a non dire wraith alien threat to the people of Earth, it wouldn't be the first time.
DeleteYou where right Bub this is Awesome I was hoping more would come up out of the whole Mars attack Rom mash-up I showed you Ha! That's what I'm talkin about Wow!!!
