I’m still amazed sometimes at the power of the Internet. If it wasn’t for this great invention that I use every day, how could I now bring you more, brand new, Iron Man photos that, thanks to tipster Rene over at SuperHeroHype, we know have just surfaced.  

These new pics look like either production stills or screen-captures from the film itself and depict verious scenes such as Tony Stark and Pepper Potts in a somewhat intimate moment, Stark being led by his captors in the desert carrying a mysterious box and Stark working his magic with two scantily-clad young ladies.

You can find the new pics here, here, here, here, and here. Enjoy!

 In today’s full-color, brand new episode of Simone & Ajax, our heroes try to protect the jungle village from monstrous dinosaurs.  

Will they fight?  Will they run?  Will they find allies in the giant Tiki heads?  

Andrew Pepoy is your party planner, and Jason Millet chooses the theme colors.

After 29 years of For Better or For Worse, Lynn Johnston is ending her long-running newspaper comic strip… and then she’s starting it over again.

Say what?

In the same week that Nicholas Gurewitch announced that he’ll be moving Perry Bible Fellowship into semi-retirement, Johnston recently announced that she’ll be doing the same — albeit with a different definition of "semi-retirement" — to her long-running series.

According to ChicagoTribune.com, Johnston plans to tie up the series’ current plot threads by September, then relaunch it from the beginning, running strips from the start of series and "augmenting" them for present-day presentation. She also plans to redraw strips for which the original art is missing.

The semi-retirement has been long in the making, as Johnston has been peppering the series with "flashback" strips since September 2007 in preparation for her retirement. This move to the "hybrid" strips has caused some confusion among regular readers, and has led to at least one newspaper announcing that it will drop the series once the current run is completed and before the relaunch kicks off.

As of now, readers are seeing present-day strips on some days, and old strips — some from as far back as 28 years ago — on other days. Some readers have expressed confusion because they don’t realize some of the strips are old. They think someone else is drawing it on the days when old strips appear, because Johnston’s earlier drawing style is significantly different from her current one.

According to Johnston, returning to the early years of Better or For Worse creates a new set of challenges for her as an artist:

"The work that I’m doing now is very structured," she says. "The characters are much more realistic. I draw every brick on a building. The way I used to draw was much more fluid and easygoing and big expressions and lots of slapstick. … I would like to go back to that, and I think I can."

Nicholas Gurewitch, creator of the weekly comic Perry Bible Fellowship, announced plans this week to move his phenomenally successful web- and print-based comic strip into semi-retirement.

After the first print collection of his PBF strips, The Trial of Colonel Sweeto and Other Stories, sold more than $300,000 in pre-orders alone, Gurewitch announced on Monday to both the newspapers carrying his strip and the general public that he now plans to move the strip into semi-regular production.

"I feel I owe it to myself and the Perry Bible Fellowship not to turn a joyful diversion into a long career," wrote Gurewitch of the decision.

According to Gurewitch, several of the newspapers carrying his strip will continue to do so, despite its irregular production. The creator now plans to devote his time to other projects.

This announcement came on the heels of what could possibly be one of the strangest interviews ever conducted on FOX News, in which Gurewitch and the FOX interviewer, Greg Gutfeld, attempted to perform a live-action reenactment of a PBF strip.

Blorgable.com spoke with Gurewitch about the experience:

"Visiting Fox News in New York felt like journeying into Mordor," Gurewitch confided later. "Pretty exciting. And a lot more pleasant, probably."

According to Gurewitch, who plans to live off sales of the collection and PBF prints for the immediate future, a second print collection could be in the works, too.

"At this point we’re selling off what remains of the second printing," Nicholas says. But what lies in the future? "I think we’re looking at something larger for the next book. Dark Horse Publishing said they were down for doing a 256-pager, which is great by me. Maybe something to the effect of the Perry Bible Fellowship Almanac.""

If you’ve ever said something happens once in a blue moon, well, today’s the day.

According to the Farmer’s Almanac definition of the third full moon in a quarter of the year when there are four full moons, today is a blue moon.

So now you need a new excuse.
