Spider Man to the Rescue
"It was reportedly his first day at the special needs school.
Efforts by the teachers to convince the pupil back inside had failed.
But a remark by his mother about his passion for comic superheroes prompted fireman Somchai Yoosabai to rush back to the station, where he kept a Spider-Man costume in his locker.
The sight of Mr Yoosabai dressed as Spider-Man and holding a glass of juice for him, brought a big smile to the boy's face, and he promptly threw himself into the arms of his "superhero", police said"

The Art of Wolverine
Marvel is celebrating "Wolverine Appreciation Month" (the 35th Anniversary of Wolvie as well as the upcoming release of Wolverine: Origins) with sweet variant covers depicting Wolverine a la Fine Art!
"'This is a huge year for Wolverine as he proves why he’s arguably one of the most popular characters in the world,” explained Joe Quesada, Marvel Comics Editor-in-Chief. “He’s not just popular with fans but also with artists, as evidenced by how many of today’s top comic artists jockey for a chance to draw him. This got us thinking: what if Wolverine had been around for hundreds, if not thousands, of years? What great, classic artists would want a crack at drawing a Wolverine cover?'"

R.I.P Jose “Pepe” Gonzalez
"Gonzalez is best known for his work on Vampirella. Starting with Vampirella #12 in 1971 and together with Archive Goodwin, Gonzalez created horror classics that have stood the test of time as some of the finest examples of the comics medium. His work was thrilling, sensuous and beautiful. He brought the character to life, elevated her to an icon and, most deservedly, won over a legion of fans who have never forgotten him. To this day, many would say his was the definitive rendition of the character."
I loved Vampirella, it was one of the first comic book characters I remember really liking and drawing myself. Thank you for your beautiful art, Mr. Gonzalez! More here.

Alan Moore refuses Watchmen Money
Not that I'm surprised, but Alan Moore is refusing the royalties for the Watchmen movie.
"The 55-year-old author says he wants nothing to do with the film because his story, published in 1986, is not suited to the big screen. He said: ‘It was designed to exploit all the things that comic books can do and no other medium can.’"
