Desperado
- Talented Folks & Exciting Projects

 Some
folks have been saying that the comic industry
is dying for longer than many of you have been around. I
first heard this in the mid-70's. I heard it again
in the early
80's and again in the mid-90's.
Joe Pruett's heard these grumblings too. Funny thing,
though. Last year Joe went out and rounded up some
of the best writers and artists and brought them
together to create comics for his Deperado
Publishing company.
You say you haven't heard of Deperado Publishing?
You will.
Just look at some of the people Joe's already signed
up: Brian Bolland,
P. Craig Russell, Tony
Harris, Cully
Hamner, Bernie
Wrightson, Andrew
Robinson, Amanda
Conner, Phil
Hester...
And look at some of the projects that are in the
wings:
So the next time someone says comics are dying, send 'em
over to
Desperado's
site. They'll see that comics are still kickin'.

Every Time
I Talk to Liston

 Amos
“Scrap Iron” Fletcher is a fighter
on the decline. Most of his earnings come from work as a
sparring partner. So when he loses the biggest
fight of his career [in Vegas!], and his boxing
license is suspended because of lies, Scrap Iron
is left with a choice... walk away in disgrace or figure
out a plan to gain back his reputation and career.
Every
Time
I Talk to Liston, Brian
DeVido's first novel is a winner. DeVideo,
a former Golden Gloves heavyweight champion,
knows the boxing world. More importantly, he's an excellent
writer. I hated to see Every
Time
I Talk to Liston end.
If "Scrap Iron" and crew come back for
a rematch, I'll be ringside!

Sin City
Website Goes Live

The Sin City website went live today.
It's got a lot of cool areas with more to come.
I'd tell you more, but why not just go have
a look around?
You never know who you might bump into in
Sin City. If you see a guy in a StalloneZone
shirt, odds are, it's me.

Is This
the Next Pulp Fiction?

"Sin City". "Is this
the next Pulp
Fiction?"
That's the question asked by Entertainment
Weekly in their Spring Movie Preview [on
stands this week]. I, of course, hope that the answer
is a resounding "YES!"
Everything is pointing to a potential
break-out and even blockbuster hit for Robert
Rodriguez and Frank
Miller. Every step from Rodriguez's idea
to "translate not adapt" Sin
City has seemed the exact right move. With
potentially the most exciting ensemble cast in
any movie this year, and with Rodriguez and [Sin
City creator] Frank
Miller as co-directors, how can it miss?
The trailers and photos released so far
say that it won't.
But, and this is a B I G but, will
the general movie-going audience get it?
Some, maybe even many, would argue that
they won't. Still, "Pulp Fiction" was
different and people ate it up. It was just hip enough
and the buzz was strong enough that a lot of people
were willing to give it a chance.
So, yeah, I'm hoping that "Sin
City" is the next "Pulp Fiction."

 Did
you happen to catch the "War
of the Worlds" teaser that premiered during
the Superbowl last night?
If you missed it , then waste no time and click HERE.
Ok, now that everybody's seen it, what do you think?
I thought it was awesome. Cruise teaming
with Spielberg for "War of the Worlds"...
you just know it's going to be huge. And Dakota
Fanning is one impressive little actress.
Anyone doubt where they'll be on June 29th?
