JOHNNY DELGADO IS DEAD:As children, Johnny Delgado & Victor Reyes grew up in a rough Phoenix neighborhood, where they were reared on corridos about the legendary vigilante heroes of the old west who stood up for the powerless against the corrupt and the heartless. One ballad, in particular, was oft repeated to the boys. The corrido spoke of the unbreakable bonds of brotherhood and two becoming one.

Todd McFarlane and Josh Olson team up for a new take on Dorothy and the gang!

Excerpted from Variety:

[The new “Wizard of Oz”] was acquired based on an idea by Todd McFarlane that was fleshed out and pitched by Josh Olson (”A History of Violence”).

McFarlane has a vision of Oz that is a dark, edgy and muscular PG-13, without a singing Munchkin in sight. That was clear with a toy line he launched several years ago that featured a buxom Dorothy [see picture below –Caleb] and Toto reimagined as an oversized snarling warthog. Olson has something a little tamer, and PG, in mind.

Both McFarlane and Olson are on the same page when it comes to the promise of marrying the Baum story with benefits of visual effects advancements.

[Also be sure to check out Olson’s collaboration with Harlan Ellison on this coming Sunday’s episode of The Masters of Science Fiction on ABC: The Discarded –Caleb]

Once upon a long time ago, a crazy Englishman (that would be Mr Bisley) and a goofy American (that would be Mr Eastman) were on a trip to Japan to work on a video game for Capcom.

After the ten days of work were completed in Nagoya, the weary two traveled down to Tokyo to visit with their wonderful agents, Rick and Yumiko of JEA, who wanted to introduce them to a few of the many talented artists and visionaries there. There were many, and their skills were epic. One they were quite fond of, Hitoshi “Chuck” Miyata, took them to his world famous “Xenn Studio” and showed them one of his favorite projects—a series of two and a half minute long flash animated cartoons called (translated) “Eyebrow Tuna!”
