Well, that was really quick:
Thursday July 19 midnight shows for The Dark Knight Rises: The IMAX Experience have already sold out at New York’s AMC Loews Lincoln Square theater. The AMC Loews Universal City cineplex in Los Angeles has sold out all seats and all but two wheelchair slots, according to seating charts for advance sales via Fandango. No additional screenings have been scheduled yet.

I don’t think we’ve ever had movies sell out over six months in advance, have we? This film could be a MONSTER– and that’s saying a lot for the Batman franchise.

On January 6th, 2012, for the first time EVER, the Green Lama came to life in an epic aerial performance at New York’s Rubin Museum of Art. Written by Adam Lance Garcia, author of the award-winning Green Lama Unbound novel, and based on his short story, “Case of the Final Column.” The stage play was performed by the amazing Cirquetacular.
The aerial artists of Cirquetacular have already interpreted tantric legends and C.G. Jung’s Mysterium from The Red Book in the 90-foot spiral of the Rubin Museum. Now they enact an episode from the Green Lama comics in midair during the museum’s popular Friday night K2 Lounge.
Well, this is an interesting way to support comic shops in the face of a digital onslaught. If you purchase* a comic on the Marvel Comics app on January 7th, between 12:01am EST and 11:59pm EST, you will be e-mailed a coupon (on January 8th)** valued at five dollars to be used for any Marvel comics purchase at your local comic store.

At the end of the day, our goals in the print and digital mediums are the same—bring more fans to comics.”
Of course, Marvel will also get a LOT of demographic information out of this offer, which hopefully will get them a much better snapshot on the comics industry as a whole.

Pro Se Productions, Publisher of the monthly New Pulp Magazine PRO SE PRESENTS, announced today its magazine lineup for the first quarter of 2012! This lineup includes not only works from multiple writers, both new and familiar to New Pulp fans, but also features the first collaboration between Pro Se and noted New Pulp Publisher, White Rocket Books!
“I couldn’t be happier,” said Van Allen Plexico, creator of HAWK and Publisher of White Rocket Books, “to see HAWK getting to make his mark for the first time in the pages of PRO SE PRESENTS, before he appears anywhere else.
