Parting Shot

This is an old story that just came to our attention over the weekend thanks to a retweet from musician Frank Ocean, who rightly observed that the image deserves "endless retweets." Last October, Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh worked with Allegheny Window Cleaning Inc...

ComicsAlliance's own Caleb Goellner was the first person to point out the similarities between Pendleton Ward's Adventure Time and Jack Kirby's Kamandi: The Last Boy on Earth to me. As such, he is solely responsible for the shame I now feel for having not picked up on the connection on my own...

Check out the new teaser poster for Iron Man 3, the new Shane Black film based on the Marvel Comics superhero created by Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, Larry Lieber and Don Heck. Said to be based loosely on Warren Ellis and Adi Granov's popular "Extremis" comic book, the film finds Tony Stark (Robert Downey, Jr...

Earlier this month, DC Nation fans were treated to two new shorts: One featuring Amethyst, and another starring Thunder and Lightning, the young (and kind of adorable) daughters of Black Lightning. They were both fantastic, and each got enough attention that they certainly warranted further installments...

Despite engaging in the occasional obnoxious emoji battle with friends on my phone, I was mostly ignorant of the artform's fuller potential... until today. Gizmodo scoured the #emojiart hashtag on Instagram and pointed out that the tiny digital symbols have a higher calling, principally being used to form a giant emoji version of Superman's "S" shield...

It's somewhat a tradition, for good or bad, that sequels to superhero movies feature multiple villains, so it should come as no surprise that the upcoming sequel to The Amazing Spider-Man may have more than one antagonist. With Jamie Foxx already on board to play Electro,Paul Giamatti is now in talks to play The Rhino in the 2014 film, according to The Hollywood Reporter...

These days, James Franco is a star, and a celebrated Hollywood actor. But you could certainly argue he wasn't a big name until he was cast to play Harry Osborn in Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy. Those films were a huge success, but that story is done, and 2012 saw the start of a new Spider-Man film franchise, from director Marc Webb...

Marvel's MAX line, the publisher's mature imprint, is making its digital debut. Previously absent from Comixology, it was announced today that the Marvel MAX titles will finally be made available exclusively on the digital comics platform...

I am not the least bit ashamed to say that this Powerpuff Girls Cake, made by Tourtes and based on a recipe from a cookbook on how to make cartoon cakes, would be more than welcome at my next birthday celebration (hint). If nothing else, it's surely more palatable than what I imagine a Rowdyruff Boys cake would taste like, as snails and puppy dog tails do not a delicious confection make... Read

Hockey fans all over North America spent the weekend celebrating the return of the NHL season after a lengthy lockout. And while I confess I'm not a hockey fan, I can certainly sympathize. So too could a group of cosplayers in Toronto, Canada who, led by Bane, took to the streets to play a game of street hockey in all their super hero (and super villain) sartorial splendor...
