Darwyn Cooke
Here are a few illustrations by one of my favorite American Cartoonists: Darwyn Cooke. His professional comic career began shortly after being a lead artist of Batman: The Animated Series. You can feel Bruce Timm's influence, but his love of the 1950's bleeds through stylistic influences. His inks and pencils are innocent yet powerful. His skill feels classic and timeless. I wish he did something of his own creation...but his talent for design, illustration, and storytelling are wonderful. His work includes a stint on Catwoman, DC's New Frontier mini-series, and the new Will Eisner's Spirit ongoing series.

Tilt: The Battle To Save Pinball
Here's a trailer to a really interesting documentary on Pinball called "Tilt: The Battle To Save Pinball". It follows Williams' (the dominant pinball manufacturer) final attempt to reinvigorate interest in pinball. The technological results were astounding... but unfortunately it wasn't enough. Check out the trailer below. Also, you can preorder the DVD (which comes out this March) on the official movie website: Tilt The Movie

Star Wars Hands
Are you familiar with the original Star Wars film (episode 4)? Well, leave it to a very devoted Japanese fan to come up with a “handy” way to reinterpret one of the it’s more famous sequences…

South Park
This is coming from a recent episode of SOUTH PARK. It made Tom Cruise angry and Isaac Hayes quit the show. Why? Because it's about scientology, their religion. This part shows what scientologists actually believe. It's very funny... or very sad, it depends of your perspective.

The Tikitis
This an unfinished page of the next chapter of the TIKITIS. Fabien M. will be upset to see it here and will want to kill me but I live far away, I'm stronger than him (at least I hope) and this page is AWESOME! This page –along with 25 others!– will be in LUCHA LIBRE #4 in May 2007.
