Copyright Enforcement Bots Seek And Destroy Hugo Awards

That is what happened to the Hugo Awards when it tried to live stream the awards ceremonies on Ustream. After airing footage of Neil Gaiman's award winning episode of Doctor Who, the show was flagged for infringement and pulled from the live stream -- right before Gaiman got to speak.
More details HERE!

Alex Ross + Barack Obama = SuperHoodie!

Take super-star artist Alex Ross!
Add super-President Barack Obama!
Put the image on a wearable item!
What do you get?
Officially, it's called Obama: Time for a Change.
Out of print for awhile, it's available once more from Graphitti Designs in a variety of styles, including the coolest (and only) Presidential campaign black hoodie!
(Ya don't see Mitt Romney doing one of these, do you?)
Buy It! NOW!
'Nuff said.

Here's the trailer currently-running in theatres...
Here's the international trailer (with some interesting differences)...

Now here's the trailer from its' sequel...from 1979!

"The Gifts are Afoot, Watson..."


OK, it's a silly paraphrase of a classic line, but we at Atomic Kommie Comics™ take our Sherlockania VERY seriously...
As part of our Crime & Punishment™ collection, we've given The Greatest Sleuth of All™ his very own section!
12 different designs, including several with Basil Rathbone, the man who is to Sherlock Holmes as Sean Connery is to James Bond; not the first, but to many (including myself), the definitive portrayer!
Add to that, several classic comic book covers, a variety of other movie posters (including the campy A Study in Terror with Holmes as "The ORIGINAL Caped Crusader"!), the coolest cigar box art I've ever seen (based on William Gillette, the definitive stage Holmes), and 1st Edition covers including A Study in Scarlet and His Last Bow!
PLUS:
NEW: Sherlock Holmes Throw Blankets & Snugglies!
The Basil Rathbone IS Sherlock Holmes! 2012 12-Month Calendar!
The Sherlock Holmes: the Greatest Sleuth of All! 2012 12-Month Calendar!
With the NEWEST Robert Downey jr/Jude Law movie opening December 16th, if you're looking for a cool, retro Christmas gift for the Holmesian, Sherlockian, or Baker Street Irregular in your life, you can't go wrong with one of these calendars, mugs, bags, shirts or other goodies! (Let him/her go to the flick "secret chic" style with a vintage Holmes sweatshirt or hoodie!)
