My Take On The Last Pages of Catwoman #1 [Spoiler Alert!]

***SPOILERS BELOW***

This comic book has been the most talked about last week. I'm not going to describe what made a lot of people mad, and just show you the images:

So its Batman and Catwoman getting jiggy with it. Big deal.

Folks, this is the new Catwoman. And the idea of an independent and strong woman who knows what she wants, totally in control is nothing but SEXY and most importantly, ADMIRABLE and RESPECTABLE as far as I'm concerned (come on people... its 2011. Its time to get over these kinds of things. sheesh). Finally, this particular scene(s) or comic book is not a direct statement that says: women are just sex objects or anything of that nature in my point of view.

When Are We Going To See the "Proton Cannon" In The Iron Man Films?

The Proton Cannon

One friend asked me regarding this one, and I just laughed at it.

Anybody who has played Marvel vs Capcom certainly knows what the Proton Cannon is: its the uber-big sucka that comes outta nowhere via a hologram of some sort used by Iron Man to exterminate his enemies right out of the face of God's green earth. And from the looks of it, its a pretty-bad ass weapon. 

As Justin Hammer said in Iron Man 2: "it has the ability to bust the bunker under the bunker you just busted."  Yeah, that sums it up. 

Here's the cannon in action: 

I know what you're thinking. You wanna see this damn thing in the movies. While that might sound a very good idea and good looking on the screen, I don't think it will happen. 

Marvel Studios has the Iron Man franchise pegged on to "reality" - meaning, they're trying their very best to make it as realistic as possible. Can a superior tech like this help any future Iron Man film gig in doing that? 

I don't think so.

But then I may be wrong too. We might see this in Iron Man 3. What do you guys think?

Jill "The Nerdy Bird" Pantozzi Wants To Help DC Fix Its Social Media Problem

The Nerdy Bird - Jill Pantozzi

Yes you read it right.

Jill mentions on her column at Newsarama about DC's failure at taking advantage of social media tools like Facebook and Twitter to promote their brand unlike their rival Marvel Comics - who happens to have hired two hardcore Marvel fans to take care of their social media endeavors and talk to other fans  for a better interactive experience - and that they need to do something in order to accomplish it.

She actually has a "simple" suggestion for DC:

Hire her as their Social Media Darling.

Yeah that's pretty bold of her to say right at DC - but you know what? The idea of Jill Pantozzi's pretty face around DC's social media platforms interacting to other DC fans thru Twitter, FB and video blogs is an AWESOME IDEA. I couldn't even express how GREAT this is if it happens.

Let's face the facts. If you know The Nerdy Bird, then you're definitely aware that she's known all over the comic book world because of her write-ups on her blog, Newsarama, and on MTV's Splashpage.

Add to that the fact that she's a hardcore comic book and DC fan, (she literally breathes DC Comics like air) she definitely knows what she's talking about, and finally, the indisputable truth that she. really. looks. damn. good. Just take a look at her in this video review of "Green Lantern" (or google image her):

Now, who doesn't want to tweet to a bubbly, sweet and beautiful chick like that about comic books and just get their geek on? 

I'm sure a lot of DC (and comic book fans in general) would love to spend time on the talking with her. 

I know DC has a tendency to ignore their female demographic - but here's one guy hoping that Jill's shout-out would be noticed and come true.

DC just can't go wrong with hiring The Nerdy Bird to be their social media goddess. She would be a wonderful addition to their team.
