Sunday Links for February 12th

This week has been one filled with ups and downs.  While prepping for a week filled with awesome events, Wysefyre and I found out that Whitney Houston passed away.  We just want to thank Ms. Houston for her contributions to the music industry.  Our thoughts are with her family and friends.

Friends fight this week as Tony Moore filed lawsuit against Robert Kirkman over ownership of The Walking Dead.  This isn't the time they have fought in court, so it is especially sad to see them back here.

GeekGirlCon 2012 has dates!  The hit of 2011, GeekGirlCon 2012 will be August 11-12 in Seattle, WA.  Start planning to go now!

A call for help has been issued to geeks!  There is now an online petition asking for people to boycott Marvel until they recognize Jack Kirby's rights as a creator and make recompense to his heirs.  A few fans are supporting this, including one that will be boycotting Avengers in solidarity.  However, I doubt there will be enough boycotting to make a difference to Marvel.

Make sure that you enter our contest to win a Conan #1 and Conan poster, both signed by Brian Wood and Becky Cloonan!  It's a great issue from Dark Horse Comics!

Sunday Links for June 5

The comics world was rocked this week with the news that DC would be updating and restarting all of their superheros in the DCU.  Every site out there went crazed with coverage and opnions, including us.

Because of the DC boat-rocking, The Beat put together a comprehensive list of how DC crisis events have changed the universe and affected us all.  At the very least, it is a great way to catch up before it all changes again.

The gang in Riverdale becomes more and more with the times as they cover gays in the military in a very positive light.  Good for them!

In getting ready for X-Men: First Class (which is totally awesome even though they screwed up the timeline way too much), Mike Romo from iFanboy writes about how he never connected with the X-Men because they were a grown-up comic.  In other movie news, if you are totally behind on the new releases, Action Chick just released her top picks of June.
