  • A fun article on appears on Comicon.com’s “Newsarama”, detailing why DC should introduce a superbaby, and even includes a reference to Mallrats:
“The idea still can give prepubescent male readers giggling fits, and, at least when he was writing Mallrats, was something Kevin Smith wondered about, given the discussion between the characters of Brodie and T.S.”

Check that one out HERE.

  • We’ve now got some cover and article scans on article from Catholic magazine “Commonweal” we mentioned the other day (the one with Buddy Christ on the cover). Sorry the scans can’t be better, it’s the best we’ve got, but feel free to zoom in on the article and check it out…
