- Those of you reading Kevin’s Green Arrow “Quiver” series might have noticed a familar looking duo on page #15. Sure, it’s from the back, and, while it MIGHT not be intentional, they sure do look familiar. Check out the scan above and see for yourself. By the way, if you’re not reading the books, CHECK THEM OUT! The storyline, writing, and artwork have all been top notch. Another can’t miss series from Kevin and crew. Get the Green Arrow books while you can still find them.

Official Jay & Bob Soundtrack Site Online!
- A small site located at http://www.jayandsilentbobmusic.com has gone online to promote the soundtrack’s debut in stores next month. There’s not much there yet, but they promise updates and include a mailing list for you to join. The incredible radio popularity of Afroman’s “Because I Got High” track will likely give this soundtrack a big debut and, with the free movie cash inside, will also get awareness of the film’s release out there in a BIG way. So far, Kevin, Dimension and Universal are doing a fantastic job at getting the press out there for J&SBSB. It’s all falling into place!

- Here’s what Kevin said on the Planet of the Apes TV special: On the show, he said how he watches the original “Planet” all the time. He also talked about watching it with his daughter Harley who points at the screen and says “monkeys”, in which Kevin replies, “Yeah monkeys, and one day they’re gonna take over, so be good.”
- Here’s a quick listener summary of Kevin’s John & Frank show radio appearance from this week:
He called in and seemed really really tired. Some people asked him some questions that we all know the answer to, but this one guy asked about a Clerks:10th Anniversary special. And Kevin said it will happen. This time with the whole cast and the entire 4 hour documentary of Jay And Silent Bob Strike Back. I got through and asked about the Mallrats comic and he said he hasn’t even started writing it and it’s at least going to be a year or two before it even comes out.
- DVD supersite The Digital Bits is giving away a Kevin Smith signed Dogma: SE DVD as part of the Grand Prize for their current trivia contest. Get your entries in now!
- Thanks to David from The Breakfast Club radio show in Seattle for sending us this short clip of an interview they did with Jerry Cantrell last week to promote his new Degradation Trip EP. In it, he talks briefly about Kevin and having a song on the Clerks soundtrack. Check out the MP3 HERE!
- The release date continues to shuffle around – Upcomingmovies.com now lists Vulgar as having an OCTOBER release date. Well, at least we can say it’s coming this Fall. Hopefully we can have a solid date for you soon.
- George Carlin was on Imus’s morning show plugging his new HBO concert DVDs, and found time to mention J&SBSB (although he butchered the title). He noted that it was the new Kevin Smith film and referenced his appearance as being short, but funny.
- Seems our mention of those skins for the computer game “The Sims” last update stemmed some more interest. If you’d like to give your Sims some tasteful movie posters on their house’s walls (View Askew posters), check them out right HERE.
- E! Online featured the Jay & Bob trailer as their clip of the day yesterday.
- Finally today, on an amusing note, Chris Rock’s memorable line from the Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back trailer might have been a prophecy! Check out the story HERE.
