Meanwhile in Web World…

Then just as all hope seemed lost…

A new hope was found, and it is powered by… BACON!

Unfortunately, we are still waiting for the conclusion, but we have a felling it will be worth it.

Oh what a bright and satirical future they paint.

Pre-Apocalyptic Blues is a darkly humorous web-comic series that takes place in the near-future of our modern world. Its a world where incredible progress has been made in science and technology: life extension treatments, cybernetics, and more. Its just a shame that the human race hasn’t progressed equally well. Welcome to the future, where the more things change, they more they keep sucking.

Pre-apocalyptic Blues is written by Chris Tihor, illustrated by Kevin Macintyre, and updated every Monday whether or not it needs it.

Cyborg Villains for Hire

Undead Villains for Hire

Vampire Villains for Hire

by: Barton Taylor

From an illustration project in 2006 for an upstart production company: a series of villains for hire, in a graphic comic book style. Not related to the DC Comis Titans Villains for Hire but equally cool. These were once destined for classy t-shirts and hoodies like this..

.. but at present are still just comics on the drawing board.

Marvel Publishing, Inc., commonly referred to as Marvel Comics, is an American company that publishes comic books and related media. Marvel Entertainment, Inc., a subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company, owns Marvel Publishing.

Marvel Mystery Comics (first issue titled simply Marvel Comics) is an American comic book series published during the 1930s-1940s period known to fans and historians as the Golden Age of Comic Books. It was the first publication of Marvel Comics’ predecessor, Timely Comics.

Marvel counts among its characters such well-known properties as Spider-Man, Iron Man, the X-Men, Wolverine, the Hulk, the Fantastic Four, Captain America, Daredevil, Thor, Namor the Submariner, the Punisher, Ghost Rider, Doctor Strange, the Silver Surfer; villains such as Dr. Doom, the Green Goblin, Dr. Octopus, Venom, Magneto, Sabretooth, Galactus, Red Skull, Kingpin, Bullseye; and others. Most of Marvel’s fictional characters operate in a single reality known as the Marvel Universe, with locales set in real-life cities such as New York, Los Angeles and Chicago.

The comic-book arm of the company started in 1939 as Timely Publications, and by the 1950s had generally become known as Atlas Comics. Marvel’s modern incarnation dates from 1961, with the launching of Fantastic Four and other superhero titles created by Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, Steve Ditko, and others. Marvel has since become the largest American comic-book publisher, surpassing its longtime competitor DC Comics.

On December 31, 2009, The Walt Disney Company acquired Marvel Entertainment for $4.24 billion.

The Marvel Universe is the shared fictional universe where most comic book titles published by Marvel Comics take place, including those featuring Marvel’s most familiar characters, such as Spider-Man, the Hulk, the X-Men, and Captain America.

The Marvel Universe is further depicted as existing within a “multiverse” consisting of thousands of separate universes, all of which are the creations of Marvel Comics and all of which are, in a sense, “Marvel universes”. In this context, “Marvel Universe” is taken to refer to the mainstream Marvel continuity, which is known as Earth-616.

Though the concept of a shared universe was not new or unique to comics in 1961, writer/editor Stan Lee , together with several artists including Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko, created a series of titles where events in one book would have repercussions in another title and serialized stories would show characters’ growth and change. Headline characters in one title would make cameo or guest appearances in other books. Eventually many of the leading heroes assembled into a team known as the Avengers. This was not the first time that Marvel’s characters had interacted with one another—Namor the Sub-Mariner and the Original Human Torch had been rivals in Marvel’s “Golden Age”—but it was the first time that the comic book publisher’s characters seemed to share a world. The Marvel Universe was also notable for setting its central titles in New York City (by contrast DC heroes each live in a different fictional city). Care was taken to portray the city and the world as realistically as possible with the presence of superhumans affecting the common citizens in various ways.

Over time, a few Marvel Comics writers lobbied Marvel editors to incorporate the idea of a Multiverse; this plot device allows one to create several fictional universes which normally do not overlap (see below or Multiverse for more information). What happens on Earth in the main Marvel Universe would normally have no effect on what happens on a parallel Earth in another Marvel-created universe. However, storywriters would have the creative ability to write stories in which people from one such universe would visit this alternate universe.

In 1982, Marvel published the mini-series Contest of Champions, in which all of the major heroes in existence at the time were gathered together to deal with one threat. This was Marvel’s first miniseries. Each issue contained biographical information on many major costumed characters; these biographies were a precursor to Marvel’s series of reference material, The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe, which followed shortly on the heels of Contest of Champions.

Like all hero’s Captain American’t starts off like many of us normal citizens…

Hygiene is of course very important to a modern super hero…

Like in an endless run of TV scenes, it’s crime fighting time!

Except, due to the recession and ‘this economy’ super villains are out of work too…

After a long hard day of waiting for something to do, Captain American’t returns to the lair

Until the next episode…

Title: Parents of Earth

Description: This poster from the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare and the Centers for Disease Control appeals directly to parents by speaking through the characters of the popular film Star Wars. These widely recognizable figures from popular culture are particularly suitable for promoting immunization because they are familiar to both parents and children, and as a result they are likely to capture the interest of many viewers. By combining image and textual message, the poster gently but effectively recommends that children be fully immunized. [via: nlm.nih.gov]
