Free Hot Comics Links For A Super Weekend

Spidey Girl, American Gladiators and Indy Comics Abound!

On this "Super" weekend, ComicMix Radio is more than happy to offer a number of surfing options to keep you busy during the parts of the SuperBowl between the cool commercials.

One of those commercials will be the latest trailer for the Iron Man movie from Paramount Pictures and Marvel Entertainment. Look for it to run at around 7:30 PM. Chances are, you have already seen the tease here at Marvel. After the big game, the new ad will also be available here at Apple, and at the official movie website. Tomorrow it will also hit sites that include Yahoo Sports! and ESPN.com, so basically you won't be able to miss it.

Brian Wood has posted his Channel Zero design book, Public Domain, as a free PDF download here. Public Domain is a collection of 145 pages of black and white artwork that includes extras generated in 1996-98 during the creation of Wood’s first graphic novel Channel Zero.

Oni Press is picking up the sword and shield with North World, Book 1: The Epic of Conrad, a new original graphic novel series from cartoonist and web comic creator Lars Brown. Part Lord Of The Rings and part Gross Pointe Blank, North World is a fantasy epic that is also a webcomic that you can see here.

And as always, you can subscribe to our Podcasts via

Top Cow Productions reports the final tally from fans at the official home of Pilot Season here totaled over four million votes. Hang on to that link, as that is where the winner will be announced on February 12th.

The HD online series Sanctuary can be seen here and will be picked up by The Sci Fi Channel for a season of 13 one-hour episodes. It stars Sci Fi Channel regular Amanda Tapping (Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis) and, according to the Guinness Book of World Records, is the biggest budget project ever made for the internet.

It looks like ABC Family has picked up The Middleman, the TV adaptation of the Viper Comics series by Javier Grillo-Marxuach and Les McClaine. The pilot for the show, which stars Matt Keeslar and Natalie Morales has been completed and you can see photos from the set here.

If you have a Tweens/Teen, ages 11 to 17 (girls or boys) and want to try out for a role in the upcoming indie film Spidey Girl, your first step is to go here. The producers are asking would-be actors to write an anti-smoking essay, which revolves around a 13-year-old girl sets out to stop criminals from selling cigarettes in her neighborhood.

MGM's American Gladiators site is here, featuring new re-digitized footage from the original competition show that aired in syndication from 1989-1996. Loved the 80s hair-dos.

That should hold you until Super Tuesday, when we are back with the only real choice you should be considering that day: which new comics & DVDs can your wallet afford.

OK, we're kidding. If you're in a Super Tuesday state, please get out and vote, too!.
