Illustration by Agata MarszałekMatt Singer at The Dissolve takes a look at Sly Stallone in Sylvester Stallone’s Career Tells a Story of Going the Distance. Here are just a couple of quotes that stuck out…
… no matter how badly the odds are stacked against him, Rocky just won’t quit. For him, survival is just as good a victory as a knockout.
The same goes for Stallone.
And if THIS next quote doesn’t get you to want to read the full piece, I’m surprised you read this far.
(Sly)’s the only man alive who’s had a No. 1 box-office hit in each of five consecutive decades. It hasn’t always been easy; after his remarkable early success and a long run as one of the most bankable stars in Hollywood, he bottomed out in the dregs of direct-to-video thrillers. But years after his action-hero peak, Stallone returned to his roots and sparked one of the most remarkable comebacks in movie history. When things looked their bleakest, he rallied for one more climb up the Art Museum steps. This is the story of how Sylvester Stallone went the distance.
Last week I shared Andy Bennett’s riff on a Jack Carter and Lono from 100 Bullets. I liked Andy’s work on it so much, I’ve ordered a Jack Carter & John Wick piece for pick-up at HeroesCon this year. Although Heroes is still a couple weeks away, Andy shared with me the piece that will be waiting for pick-up. Yowzers! (And don’t you just love the nod to Tango & Cash?)

Last year at HeroesCon, Andy Bennett created his take on a Jack Carter and Lono from 100 Bullets team-up. Sure wish there was a real series coming with these two. I liked Andy’s work on this so much, I’ve ordered a Jack Carter & John Wick piece for pick-up at HeroesCon this year.
