I can’t wait to get a look at this: Here are some details on IDW’s upcoming comics adaption of Peter S. Beagle’s fantasy novel The Last Unicorn, which was the basis of one of Young Caleb’s favorite childhood movie-going experiences.

I hope they’re better than the Anita Blake comics: Here’s Heidi MacDonald on Charlaine Harris, the author whose popular novels about Sookie Stackhouse was the basis for the True Blood television series, joining Dynamite in a comics-making endeavor. All successful prose authors are currently required by law to sign some sort of licensing agreement with comics companies to produce comics based on their work.

I would have guessed some sort of moonshine: The contents of Drinky Crow’s dook-dook-dook jug….revealed! (Via Flog!)

“It’s a little-known real-world scientific fact that massively traumatic injuries actually leave you stronger and more physically capable than you were before!”: Writing for Comics Alliance, Chris Sims counts down the “The Six Realest Moments in ‘Kick-Ass,’” the comic that writer Mark Millar recently told The Independent was the first superhero comic set in the real world.

I thought it would be smaller: “World’s First Commercial Jetpack To Be Sold For $75,000″

“Unfortunately, being a woman in society means that sometimes you have to sort of quell what is instinctually broad and magnificent and magical about you”: Wait, women are magic? Aha, I knew it! That explains so much! Er, anyway, here’s Gina Torres talking to Wired about playing Superwoman in the latest direct-to-DVD DC cartoon.
