- Every once in a while we get some artwork here that’s SO cool that we just hafta share it – This has to be one of the coolest original pieces from the Askewniverse we’ve seen in a while. Page Branson created this amazing piece, which features pretty much every character to ever exist in View Askew films, and presented it to Kevin at Megacon. She was kind enough to save a scan though, so look above to see what way cool artwork is now in Kev’s posession! This took her over 30 hours to create, and it shows. Click above for a better look.
- A new interview with Bob Schreck has been posted over at the Comic Book Resources website. We recommend you give it a read, as Kevin does come up a few times, but here’s a very interesting bit:
BS: Yes. We’re not exactly sure at this point. Kevin still has two more issues of “Green Arrow” to get out and then he’s going to take a break. We’re keeping everybody on “Green Arrow” except for Kevin, even Matt Wagner on the covers for the entire Brad Metzler run. Which should keep everybody happy and keep the book looking the same. Kevin’s got “Black Cat” at Marvel and just because of the nature of [his schedule], he’s a busy guy. Every time you turn around, he’s doing Roadside Attractions for Jay Leno or a benefit thing or a college speaking tour or he’s writing his next screenplay or shooting his next movie. He’s got a lot going on. It’s still on track. When it’s going to hit those tracks, we’re not sure. It could be 7 months from now, it could be longer.
- Just a followup: The Chasing Amy poster (the couch imagine) we mentioned recently has been available for several years. Many stores order it but very few order it more than once, as the image itself is fairly blurry. We recommend you check it out in person before purchasing. College campus poster sales sometimes carry it.
- The official site for Affleck’s “Changing Lanes” is now open with new stills and more.
- The results to WiggyWorld’s poll on your favorite Kevin Smith film are now online, as well as a review for the Jay & Silent Bob Strke Back DVD. Check them all out HERE.
- From Cinescape comes information on 2 Saturn award recipients for this year that are Askew type folks: Lee of course for his Mallrats appearance, and Struzan for his design of the excellent Mallrats poster. Struzan won the “Life Career Award” and Lee took home the “Life Career Award”. Great stuff, and congrats to both!
- The Twisted Kaju Theater is an award-winning web comic, and we hear they’ve got some View Askew references in their archived strips. Check out #111 and #71. Enjoy.
- Another bad review for a non-region one DVD, this one the Australian Chasing Amy DVD.
- Finally today, check these guys out — Yep, they’re for real! They’ve got nothing on Buddy Christ, but perhaps a good example of life imitating art. You can actually purchase ‘em too!
