I'm going to blow my own horn very shortly, so please indulge me. I've been on a prolonged hiatus from the board, and something major happened during this period: I had a short story published in the Philippine Speculative Fiction IV anthology. I'm about to go over the terms of the contract...

This is the first page of a 4 page strip that I wrote and drew, back in 2004 for a local Free Comic Book Day compilation. The remaining pages contain one instance of graphic sexual content that wouldn't be appropriate for general viewing on the board. I'm linking to the pages, for you to...

Welcome to DreamMovie#11, folks. I'm gonna shake things up a little with this round. But first... THE RULES 1. The winner of this round becomes the moderator of the next round and gets to choose the subject for the next round. Winner may also declare whether it is animated or a live-action...

THE RULES 1) The winner of the last round becomes the moderator of the round, and thus gets to choose the property or story in question to be adapted. Winner may also declare whether this property is an animated film, or a live-action one. He must also name the core characters to be cast, which...

This will serve as a multipurpose thread for all the remaining Vertigo titles that don't have enough readers at UC (yet) to merit their own discussion thread. (Which, incidentally, is half my pull list, at the moment.) Namely: Vinyl Underground by Si Spencer and Simon Gane American Virgin by...

Rules 1. The winner of the last round becomes the moderator of the round, and thus gets to choose the property or story in question to be adapted. Winner may also declare whether this property is an animated film, or a live-action one. He must also name the core characters to be cast, which...

This was inspired by the speculation in the recent "DC to Marvel" thread... Which DC writers and artists have never done major ongoing work for Marvel? Among them, which ones would you most want to jump ship to the "House of Ideas"? And what would you like them to do? Personally, I'm...

Reposting this from a group blog that I write for, in case anybody might be interested... The Mutancy Meme, Part 1: The (Not-So) Secret Origin of the Species What makes you think you can cure our disease? Maybe its just our biology Maybe its time to make room for another species...

This has been mentioned before, in other threads, but I don't think i've seen it being discussed for a while now... Do you think Marvel will eventually need to address how the other heroes would regard a threat like The Pride, from Runaways -- especially a grouping as influential as The...

THUNDERCATS HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Same rules as last time. 1) The winner of the last round becomes the moderator of the round, and thus gets to choose the property or story in question to be adapted. Winner may also declare whether this property is an animated film, or a...

I have a concept for a TV series based on an also-ran superhero series published by defunct mid-90s line Ultraverse (released by Malibu). The original series was called The Strangers, and created by Steve Englehart. (My version drops the "The" from the title.) Here is a basic desciription...

Okay, let's try this again. This is a continuation of ONE sub-topic I brought up, in the "Women In Comics" thread, which has since been locked. Please note the title of this thread. I created it to discuss a very particular, specific topic: Which comics do you think will appeal to women...

I have mod permission to initiate this thread -- Please move it to the Games forum, as necessary. RULES ARE SIMPLE: * The first person to give the right answer will decide the next question. * Disputed results may be open to healthy debate, until it's resolved in a satisfactory way. *...

At last, I have made my triumphant return to UC! And what better way to celebrate than by starting my own thread, dedicated to fantasy Hollywood ideas? Mods: If you feel this can be happily merged with the similar one, created by my alleged "alter-ego", Ourchair. So without further ado, I give...

Does anybody else here use Twitter? http://www.twitter.com It's yet *another* personal communications and social networking service. Consider it "short message blogging" or "micro-blogging". Basically, you make posts with a 140-character limit (no HTML formatting allowed). These are...

I'm probably really late to the party with this but I couldn't find any dedicated thread about it so... Has anybody else here attempted that Celebrity Biometrics Look-Alike feature at MyHeritage.com? (Free registration needed.) I just tried it out, and I got some relatively surprising...

This is related to a possible future podcast series that Ourchair and I have in mind... What are some of your favorite cities from comic books? And why? They can be totally made-up. They can be analogs, counterparts, or fictionalized versions of real-life urban centers. I don't care. I...

A while back, I was reading a feature article about CNN news anchor Anderson Cooper, and I suddenly thought to myself, "What if a guy like that had superpowers?" So I ran with that concept, and threw in a few other ideas I had while reading Bendis' run on Daredevil, as well as BKV's Ex...

I was originally going to post this in the "Is this workable?" thread, but I realized it was quickly getting large and well-developed enough to merit a thread of its own. I just wanted to share the idea, more than anything else. I have absolutely no intention of posting any related stories...

Did anybody pick up Heaven's War by Micah Harris and Michael Gaydos (published by Image), when it was released last year or so? Here's the description from the original Previews solicit:1938: As the world moves toward global war, a secret angelic battle is waged in the heavenly realms to...
