Kick-Ass Trailer!

by on Nov.12, 2009, under Marvel, Movies, News

I may be indifferent to most of Mark Millar’s works, but Kick-Ass is one of my favorite comics. I just find it funny how the movie gets finished first before the graphic novel. I’m pretty sure all of us comic book nerds have dreamed of going out in a costume and fighting crime. In fact, you can all place bets on which Comicgasm writer will snap first and do a Kick-Ass! (My money’s on Fiel)

Speaking of the Kick-Ass movie, here’s the trailer. Relish it. It’s fucking awesome.

Kick-Ass, directed by Matthew Vaughn and starring Aaron Johnson, Nicolas Cage, Chloe Moretz and Christopher Mintz-Plasse, opens in April 2010.

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: The Graphic Novel

by on Aug.06, 2009, under Indie, News, WTF

Pride and Prejudice and ZombiesKnow what makes everything better? Zombies. Just look at Blackest Night. It’s the best event that DC has ever come up with (and we’re just past issue #1, folks!), and that’s saying a lot, since DC just finished Infinite Crisis, Sinestro Corps War, and Final Crisis (YES I LOVED FINAL CRISIS FUCK YOU HATERS).

You know what other things zombies can turn into something awesome? Jane Austen. I swear, if it wasn’t for Keira Knightley I would’ve dozed off to that Pride and Prejudice movie. What. It was a date.

Anyway, there was this little book called Pride and Prejudice and Zombies that came out a while back. I haven’t read it yet, but Lauren said that it was pretty fucking awesome. The thing is, it’s been ages since I’ve read something without pretty pictures in it (fuck you, comics!) so I haven’t picked up any book in ages.

Guess what: there’s Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: The Graphic Novel being developed right now. It’s going to be written by Tony Lee (X-Men, Spider-Man) and drawn by Cliff Richards (Buffy the Vampire Slayer). So I really can’t wait for this so I can get my Victorian-era zombie-killing action. Seriously, zombies and ninjas and women in weird puffy dresses. You can’t go wrong with that.

Come on, tell me you’re not excited. Really now.
