I can’t believe another Comic-Con is almost upon us. That whole, odd, everything goes faster when you are older thing really is rather annoying. Not that I don’t like Cc… it’s a fairly mind boggling event when you think about it… it’s just that I could have sworn I was just there.
This year is going to be different for two reasons. One, for the first part of the festival, I’ll get to show the insanity off to Timo Descamps and Danny De Jong. It’s going to be their last look at America for the year; they wing their way home to Belgium from San Diego. They already think we Americans are a bit… unique. It will be interesting to hear their opinions after they see throngs of armored, light-saber weilding, Pikachu’s dancing with thong-clad Skeletors and leather-bra wearing Conans.

Today I found out that Shakira — she of the big booty, funny voice, and nonsensical English lyrics — did a quite rubbish, dance cover of the moody, minimalist “Islands” by The xx but renamed it “Explore.” Now, I have no problem with covers, but goddamn, that song’s less than a year old, and Shakira is much richer than The xx. Can’t she pay some wannabe Bacharach to pen a club hit for her? It’s the same as Rod Stewart covering Tom Waits’ “Downtown Train” four years after the original — that’s not covering, that’s Pillaging.
So welcome to This Week in Comics, where every day is a comic book and yes I know that record labels pay money to the originators to record cover songs but that doesn’t make it less terrible.

Whether fans were swept off their feet with the direction NBC's "Heroes" took in its second season or left hanging in the wind, the third volume will do better. A lot better ... and it's all thanks to the writers strike. "If Season 2 hadn't been cut, we were going to focus [the second half of the season] on the villains," story editor Chuck Kim told TV Guide. Instead, Volume III, kicking off Sept. 22, will take a more in-depth look at the temptation of the dark side. "The great thing is we've made [that arc] much better than it would have been," Kim said. "We'll be seeing some new [villainous] characters, but we'll also be dealing with our series regulars and see how their abilities are 'tempting' them." The original plan for the second half of the second season was to focus ...
