Batman in the Real World

Unlike Superman, Batman never professes to be doing what he does for truth, justice, and the American Way. I’m not sure Batman believes in any of those things—except his truth and his justice.

And, oddly enough, that makes him the most American of all the superheroes. And the most terrifying.

It's a tough life being a superhero. Sometimes keeping the facade of the work a day life separate from your costumed self can be too much. A secret not shared is a heavy burden. Some superheroes break under the pressure...

Jack Kirby’s Heroes in Waiting

http://i44.tinypic.com/148k5jt.jpg
{Jack Kirby working in 1971. Photo: Bill Bridges (c) The New York Times Company}

The characteristics of a Jack Kirby illustration are easily distinguished: extravagantly costumed heroes and nefarious villains locked in titanic struggles; foreshortened fists, feet and muscles that seem to pop off the page; intricately detailed settings meant to conjure the ancient past or suggest the distant future.

His style made Mr. Kirby a sought-after talent at DC Comics, now a piece of the Time Warner empire, and at Marvel Comics, a recent acquisition of the Walt Disney Company. At Marvel in particular he played a crucial role in creating superheroes like the Fantastic Four, the Hulk and the X-Men — work that is now at the center of a property dispute between the heirs of Mr. Kirby, who died in 1994, and Marvel and Disney.

Those same signature design elements are also vividly on display in hundreds of illustrations for never-produced cartoon shows and toy lines that Mr. Kirby created in the 1980s for the animation studio Ruby-Spears Productions — work that thus far does not belong to any of the media conglomerates and that has been seen by few people.

Now, a partnership between that studio’s founders, Joe Ruby and Ken Spears, and Sid and Marty Krofft, the longtime children’s entertainment producers (“H. R. Pufnstuf,” “Land of the Lost”), is planning to revive these unseen Kirby characters in as many forms as possible. It’s a proposition that faces challenges as the studios scour the landscape for the next comic book or cartoon character they can transform into a franchise, but also one that has piqued the interest of some powerful Hollywood players.

“I love comic books, but this is a treasure,” said Ariel Z. Emanuel, the co-chief executive of the William Morris Endeavor Entertainment agency, who is representing these Kirby works for Ruby-Spears and the Kroffts. “It’s like a boat sank at the bottom of the ocean, and all of a sudden you’ve uncovered it.”

Spider-Man Will Wash Your Windows... FOR A PRICE - ComicsAlliance

Spider Style, a 'Specialist Cleaning Services Entity and Rope Access' facility company recently opened an office in the UAE. With offices based in France and Qatar, Spider Style is not your ordinary large-scale cleaning company. They send a dedicated team of abseiling 'superheroes' to inspect, fix, and clean building facades from the top down and they'll even do it "Spidey" - style by donning Spiderman suits... Visitors to the area were noticeably amused by the aerial acrobatics of Spider-Style's cleaning technician, who used his 'spider-sense' to abseil with grace along the hotel's exterior while occasionally waving to admiring spectators.

The 5 Best (and 5 Worst) Marvel Characters at What They Do | Topless Robot

quick synposis:
Many Marvel heroes aren't just defined by their superhero status or their powers; they've also got other interests and aspects of their personality that define them far more than their costumes. For instance, Nightcrawler is a teleporting mutant and member of the X-Men, but he is also a priest. Maybe. Actually, that's kind of a confusing subject. But the point is, many of the Marvel superheroes have jobs outside of their duties as superhumans -- some of whom are good at them, some of whom aren't. So this list is a look at who you might want to hire and who you should stay away from if you suddenly ended up running a temp agency in the Marvel Universe.

Not for nothing, Charlie, and I don't mean to insult you in any way, because I do appreciate having at least one contributor/commentator on this topic, (though I am waiting/hoping for more to join in, perhaps foolishly) but do you think you could try to at least find the respective authors to the works, illustrations, photographs that you are posting?

I mean, it's not hard to find, as, for instance, I uncovered the creator to the above canvas painting's in less than ten seconds, and I do find it fortuitous, if not altogether serendipitous, to be able to have the opportunity to give nearly every artist within my threads their due recognition. But, I really can't do it alone (even though up until this point I have, but it is exhausting "tidying" up after others after a while). If you need any pointers or hints about how to actually find all the relevant details, or just the right "in this direction" credits, I'd be happy to help. Ecstatic, really.

The Importance of Superman’s Cape

http://i50.tinypic.com/m1r3p.jpg
Illustration by Alex Ross

Quote:

My 2 1/2 year-old kid is obsessed with Superman. He’s walking around humming the theme song, going “Ta-ta-ta!” every time he removes his pajamas and changes to day clothes, and is running around yelling “I am Superman!” all day long. My wife, supporting his obsession, had sewn him a red cape (which I am SO envious of) and every day, after the ceremonious brushing of the teeth (“Just like Superman does..”) my son puts on the cape and “flies” to daycare.

One might think that it would be embarrassing, hanging around with a boy dressed as the man of steel, day in and day out, but surprisingly, it is not. People are smiling when he’s breezing by them, some are even lifting their hands in the air, imitating flight.

Two days ago, bringing Superboy to daycare, we were approached by one of his playmates, another 2 1/2 year old. That boy – let’s call him Clark for the sake of this story – is part of a family that’s having a very hard time dealing with a chronic sickness afflicting one of its kids. That takes a toll on the parents and certainly affects the amount of time they can spend with Clark (they are doing an amazing job, and we wish them all the best).

And so, that morning Clark approached Superboy and myself, and asked about the cape and superman. He was curious as to that piece of red cloth that my son wears to daycare, and clearly was very much enchanted by it. After consulting with his parents my wife had asked their permission to sow two more capes, one for Clark and the other for his brother. This morning, the capes have landed in the kids’ laps. 3 seconds later there were two Supermen running/flying around the yard, going “Ta ta ta!”, with glittering eyes and VERY wide smiles.

It made me wonder. What is it in that red cape that makes one’s heart leap? What is it in the redness of the color that blows such wind into one’s sails and lifts the spirit? Batman’s cape doesn’t have the same effect, nor does Thor’s. I don’t know the answer to that question. I do know that Superman’s cape is of no practical use in the Superman stories. I do know that capes are a hindrance to superheros – getting caught in propellers while flying, they are hard to conceal, etc. But after seeing the glitter in Clark’s eyes, and knowing that my son is willing to settle on the cape alone, not insisting on boots, over-the-tights underwear etc., I know that the cape is important. Hopefully, it will make Clark’s and his family’s life easier and bring them a little hope and joy as it does my son.

And just so you feel a little of that joy, hope, and elevation of the spirit, here’s the closest the movies bring us to having that feeling without actually wearing a cape.

Garth Ennis, Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti's 'The Pro' Animation
 
http://i32.tinypic.com/330hfg4.jpg

Prostitution has been explored pretty thoroughly in Hollywood, but I'm not sure anything's approached the superpowered depravity of an animated version of "The Pro." Based on Garth Ennis, Amanda Conner, Jimmy Palmiotti and Paul Mounts' 2002 one-shot from Image Comics, the animated trailer serves as something of a summary of the hooker heroine's adventures in a world of superhero parody.

There's been talk of a live action version of "The Pro" before (with creators calling for actresses such as Sarah Silverman and Ellen Muth for the leading role) along with a supposed movie "demo," but this past week's post by Palmiotti on YouTube marks the first time this particular animation's been made widely viewable.



Watch the animated short film HERE.

fanservice! Wednesday continues with a new, sleek feature of Character Captures; this week: Zatanna.

http://dcu.tumblr.com/photo/1280/861...byu1iSK1qzvnpd
Zatanna Zatara is a DC(comics) Universe stage-magician/superhero whose magical abilities derive from speaking backwards. She is the daughter of magician John Zatara, who passed these abilities down to her daughter.

Zatanna is a long time friend of Batman, who she met as a child. In later years, their relationship would lead to her joining the Justice League during the Satellite Era. It was in these years the infamous mind-wipe of Batman and Dr.Light took place (as seen in Identity Crisis). However, Batman and Zatanna would reconcile from these events and grow closer once more.

Currently, Zatanna is fighting evil magical underworld types in the streets of San Francisco in the pages of her solo series.

The best comic series you've (probably) never read and probably my favorite work by Alan Moore.

Miracleman aka Marvelman
http://image3.examiner.com/images/bl...racleman01.jpg

Normally I don't encourage downloading comics, since I love and want to support them, but I make an exception with Alan Moore's Miracleman series since it's out of print and the Graphic Novels are very, very expensive.
