Also, supposedly in the works as a TV series.

Isn’t TIME AFTER TIME being remade as TV series as well?

Funny story: I remember helping David lug the original manuscript for THE DARK DESCENT to and from the train station. Good god was that an enormous heap of paper!

Small wonder Ihey had to break it up into three volumes in paperback.

That sounds very much like David.

I love the clean, colorful, cartoony art style. It’s a pleasure to read and really stands out in today’s comic-book market.

I’m really enjoying this run on the character. And the art is gorgeous.

A very nice tribute to an outstandingly influential figure. Beyond his many other remarkable accomplishments, David was also a perennial teacher and mentor who liked nothing better than to find bright, sometimes flailing, young people and offer them advice and encouragement and support. David personally rescued me at…

There is a new XENA trilogy coming out from HarperCollins, written by Jeff Mariotte and Marsheila Rockwell. Jeff recently posted on Facebook that he and Marsheila had just delivered the first book to the publisher a few weeks ago.

Here’s a relevant link: http://xena.yuku.com/topic/34345#.V…

One more observation: Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t believe Captain America was mentioned once in last night’s episodes.

Guess Peggy really is moving on with her life . . ..

There are also at least three new novels in the works.

Loved the opening two-parter, and the whole period Hollywood thing.

Was it just me or was the actor playing Chadwick (the crooked politician) a dead ringer for Ray Milland back in the day? Coincidence or deliberate?

Can’t wait to see Whitney become Madame Masque.

I’m at all sure about this, but I think the “don’t drink from the same fountain” business may have been more of Southern thing. Not that there wasn’t racism in Los Angeles as well back in 1947, as demonstrated by that sneering diner owner, but I’m not sure if they had the same sort of Jim Crow laws you’d run into…

As far as I know, there’s never been any relation between Whitney Frost (aka Madame Masque) and Emma Frost. And I believe Whitney was introduced at least a decade before Emma first showed up in the X-Men comics.

I agree. There’s this weird idea that a remake somehow “replaces” or “ruins” the original, which is hardly the case. You don’t have to choose one or the other. I still enjoy both versions of THE FLY, both versions of THE THING, and at least two of the four (!) versions of INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS. (All of which…

I know exactly how you feel. My DVR is getting a work-out this week.

Heck, I’m counting five hours of superhero programming on Tuesday alone, and that’s not counting TEEN WOLF. :)

The line between “new adaptation” and “remake” can be a blurry one, depending on how well-known and influential the previous film versions are and how much the influence the older films have over the new one. I mean, yes, a new adaption of “David Copperfield” is not necessarily a remake of the previous ones, but I…

It’s a wig.

Wow. Tuesday is PACKED with genre goodness Although the return of AGENT CARTER is surely the highlight.

True story: I remember being horrified, many decades ago, to discover that my (much) younger brother thought that Roger Moore was the “real” James Bond. This was blasphemy, of course, since “everybody” knew that Sean Connery was the one true Bond. But then I realized that my brother had grown up on the Moore movies…

Exactly. And the new version might well have the same effect on today’s nine-year-olds.
