There is a plethora of comic books coming to Amazon's ComiXology Unlimited digital comics reading service in march - Marvel, DC, Image Comics, IDW Publishing, Boom! Studios, and more… but one big thing stands out. Vertigo. The complete runs of the original Hellblazer (300 issues!), Preacher (66 issues!), and Lucifer series (75 issues!) have been added to ComiXology Unlimited this month. In addition, over 200 issues of various Swamp Thing series have also been added. No specific reason has been given for this Vertigo-centric comics dump, but in some cases, it's best not to complain and just start reading (or re-reading, as the case may be). Some decidedly un-Vertigo fare being added as well this month is a heaping helping of Disney cartoon tales. Several collections have been added of Mickey House, Donald Duck, Donald and Mickey, Uncle Scrooge, and DuckTales. Staying on that anthropomorphic tip, there's also Snoopy: Beagle of Mars and six volumes of Garfield arriving this … [Read more...] about New on ComiXology Unlimited (March 2021): All the comics and manga arriving

Speaking to Collider , Verbinski said he was in trouble from the very beginning, as he pitched the movie as a R-rated film that needed a gigantic budget.

And it was silent. I remember my agent going, 'Why did you say that?' I'm like, because it is," he said. "Why just even trying to kill a movie you haven't even started? That's before getting a scripted before anything. I'm just I just want to be clear. And I think everybody at the studio was like,'Well, yeah, okay, maybe. Wow, no. It's big, we know.'" According to Verbinski, Universal "chickened out" and didn't agree to Verbinski's idea to make an R-rated movie with a huge budget.

Things take their sweet time in space. Planets drift lazily around their stars with orbits that last months, or years, and even moons take their sweet time completing their rotations. Look up at the moon, and you'd struggle to notice it inching its way across the sky. Anyway, here's the view from New Africa's terrifying 900km/h moon, Mitterand Hollow, a hunk of rock that almost killed me in Elite Dangerous last night. I spotted the nippy little moon while making my way through that Elite sightseeing guide Andy K spotted earlier this week. Now, I can't stress enough that these gifs aren't timelapses—Mitterand Hollow really does move this fast, an Outer Wilds planet transplanted into Elite Dangerous' more methodical galaxy. Landing on it requires a bit of Outer Wilds daring, too. Normally, landing on a planet in Elite means slowly aligning your trajectory and keeping a steady speed as you approach a relatively static target. But as you can see, I'm having a hell of a time … [Read more...] about I was almost murdered by a moon in Elite Dangerous last night
