picfor1000 signup post has gone up. In keeping with the perfect 10 idea, people will be assigned a photograph of something the photographer considered "perfection". That obviously covers a wide range of possibilities. I've signed up again. I've been lousy with the deadline in years past. We'll see.

This has not been a good day to be a Clark/Lois fan. The comics websites have been slowly revealing the new status quo in the DCNU and why it makes Superman more "accessible". Lots of spoilers in those links. Say goodbye to the Clark & Lois marriage and pretty much everything I liked about Superman. Fortunately there is dcu-freeforall with a 2011 DCU Free For ( Read more... )

comicsbigbang has opened. The challenge is to write 10,000 or more words of comics fanfic. They are accepting animated and movieverse. If you're successful, you get a shiny piece of artwork. Signups for writers and artists are through the end of the month.

And yes, I'm thinking about it. After the disaster that was thelittlebang, I'll have to plan a little better. Or ( Read more... )

The comm ( Read more... )

Fantastic Fangirls offered up the two best responses to the Disney/Marvel thing: Two Fairy Tale Characters Walk into a Diner and asked the obvious question Which Disney character would ( Read more... )

The calendar may say August and the weather may be hazy hot and humid, but the Halloween candy is already making appearances in the grocery aisles. You know what that means. bradygirl_12 has opened up her annual DCU Halloween challenge with a ton of useful prompts. One year I will actually write something for this. I have an old bunny, but given the Blackest ( Read more... )

Happy Canada Day to all those it applies to. For my part, I finished off the first season of "Intelligence". I was thinking that for a show that involves organized crime, it's fairly low on sex and violence. That changed somewhat by the middle of the season, although it was still mild. Haddock seems to feel "less is more" and what's implied is ( Read more... )

For Terry Dodson fans, he's showing at the Galerie de 9eme art in France. This is the second time he's done a show with them. For those of us who can't afford the ticket, they've posted galleries of both shows online. I can't guarantee it's all completely worksafe especially since he includes his Coraline: Songes work. He also has a blog where he's ( Read more... )
