^ A beauty of the series is that Usagi is a traveler with an expansive cast who often don't meet one another (for a while), so when Stan decides to pair Usagi with another character for an extended...

Wandered if there was any Usagi news I missed and found this article on the SDCC panel last July...

Please; practical creature effects! Bring back the Henson Creature Shop. Brian Henson supervised the groundbreaking work in the first movie - he's still working!

Has anyone mentioned the fight between Jackie and Benny in Wheels on Meals?

Went to my local shop to pick up the latest Usagi issue and the clerk got a real kick out of the fact I only bought one thing and was a wearing an Usagi t-shirt at the time!

Sadly, I got knocked off my usual comic reading schedule these last couple of years (sometime after my last post here) and am now catching up on Usagi. I hope to be fully caught up and back to...

Well, Legendary has to license Toho monsters on a case by case bases. As a matter of fact, although this film always intended to use Mothra, they weren't sure they'd be able to use her, so the...

Splitting them up to do Kong and Godzilla solos would be my preference.

Godzilla is a very difficult character to write for. Kong is more human and can communicate with humans. Mothra and Gamera communicate in some way with humans, and Gamera is a perrineal underdog who...

It was a modest success with a mixed reception. The idea it was this big flop took root after, as it sometimes does.

Yeah. Doing a show like this is like throwing a wedding (or some other similar metaphor).

Mignola's got a gallery show (and accompanying catalog/artbook) this fall, and that may occupy the lion share of his year.

God, I have an insane backlog. Take a year off and maybe I'll have caught up.

Maybe Mike's putting his all into a solo project? That'd be neat.

Love Popeye. A million ways this could go wrong, high probability it doesn't even happen at all... nevertheless, I'm tentatively excited!

I wonder when that Hermes Press Popeye visual history book...

What are the chances we'll see a Jack Cole Plastic Man omnibus? It's my favorite golden age hero and the Archive editions (two decades on, now) leave something to be desired in the reproduction...

Stan Sakai is the book. I think, along with Jaime Hernandez, he's probably the greatest living American cartoonist.

... but seeing a little bit of someone else playing with the character? Seems...

Huh, this and Jimmy Olsen are the castings that make me most excited!

Those episodes back in the day dropped Usagi off in the modern world, and that storyline was never resolved. If i'm reading this correctly, this one-shot will be the resolution showing Usagi...

A proper new Uncle Scrooge comic is a dream come true! Love Uncle Scrooge!

Will the Traveling Wilburys stuff be phase 2 or 3?

Seeing reports of people going to this in groups and laughing their butts off. Is this dull bad, fun bad, or funny bad? Does the audiences' sobriety at time of viewing change this equation?

The emperor ape leering, saying "you will die!" is giving me goosebumps. I feel that the last few decades we've gotten away from classic, scenery-chewing villainy. We've forgotten how satisfying it...

Holy mackerel! An in-production TV series sequel quickly repurposed as a movie?!

The '90s are back, baby!

I was raised by Cartoon Network. Sure, I'd seen and enjoyed the occasional import as a kid in the '90s (like Speed Racer, Voltron, and Samurai Pizza Cats), but it was around age 10 to 11 that I...

The best part of Oscar season is them putting stuff I missed the first go-round back in theaters.

Pretty great year for movies! A decade ago you'd see all the categories filled with...
