PeeWee Herman Rises

Boy howdy. Of course my first vacation of the year coincides with the San Diego Comic-Con, so I’ve missed out on giving you people all manner of cool updates and news. Though I also have to consider that there are plenty of more professional websites doing just that and probably doing a better job.

Someday Henchman-4-Hire will be at San Diego…though probably as a janitor or something.

At any rate, I need to gather up all of the good comic-con news and put up a big post later tonight or tomorrow. Until then, enjoy some funny Dark Knight Rises humor.

Y: The Last Movie

This needs to be made by a real studio, right now.

For those of you who aren’t familiar with Y: The Last Man, I’ll give you a synopsis:

A mysterious plague has wiped out every human male on the planet, except for one. How does the hero cope as the last of his kind, in a world ruled by women? It’s smart, well-written, genuinely funny at times, and now it has its own fan-film.

Peter Parker vs. The World

I wish I could draw as well as ~the-madman. Then I could cast off this silly existence based on writing!

Robin the Boy Wonder Rises

I love Robin, but man that guy takes a lot of flak. But what if the Burt Ward Robin of the 1960s was in the Dark Knight Rises?

The above video was by the sketch comedy troupe Paulilu Mixtape, and it’s pretty darn funny. Poor Robin. He’s never going to live down Burt Ward.

I hope to write up an essay on why I think Robin would fit nicely in the Nolanverse. But then I’ve been planning this essay for years and have never started it. So how will I get it down within the two weeks we have until Dark Knight Rises? I have no idea…but keep your fingers crossed!

Super Golden Friends

Starting today with a bit of comedy, we have someone drawing old superheroes over the top of the Golden Girls theme song. Kevinbappdotcom thought of it, and I’m posting it. That’s how Internet fun is made!
