EC comics at bargain prices

Legba — Mon, 14 Apr 2008 09:33:49 +0000

If you’re lucky enough to live near a Borders Bookstore, check the clearance aisle for a copy of Foul Play. The book profiles 16 EC creators, and includes an eight page story reprint from each of them. Retail is $29.95, but Borders has it on clearance for $4.95. Well worth picking up at that price for the story that gave the book its name, “Foul Play” (from Haunt of Fear #19, May/June 1953). If you only know Jack Davis from his work in Mad Magazine, or the assorted album and paperback covers he’s done, you owe it to yourself to check this one out. You can also get it from Amazon for $21.86 if you’re too cool for brick and mortar.

I believe I can fly!

Siegel heirs get a piece of Superman

Legba — Sun, 30 Mar 2008 07:01:34 +0000

A federal judge ruled this week that Jerry Siegel’s heirs own an interest in the domestic copyright for Superman. The case is ongoing, and what this means financially is still up in the air. Newsarama has ongoing coverage of the story. There’s a possibility that Time Warner would have to licence the use of Superman in any new derivative works after 2013.

This comes on the heels of a prior ruling that awarded the Superboy copyright to Siegel’s heirs.

In former Soviet Union, building looks at you!

More proletarian Sci-Fi buildings here. And there’s even more Russian fun to be had at English Russia.
