Each week, we post a limited-edition design, to be sold for exactly 7 days, then replaced with another!
This week...a Kirby Klassic with a twist!
It's one of the Third Eye black light posters from the early 1970s, featuring The Silver Surfer and Quasimodo in an explosion of "Kirby Krackle" energy effects!
Besides the astounding Jack Kirby/Frank Giacoia illustration itself, the bright fluorescent coloring is what makes it a perfect graphic piece for t-shirts and other collectible goodies!
It just screams "LOOK AT ME!"
But, it'll stop screaming next Friday, when it's replaced by something else, so grab it while you can!

SuperDuper Cat (plus SuperDuper Mouse & Cosmo Cat)
No, not Streaky the Supercat currently appearing in DC Comics, this "Super Cat" (renamed "SuperDuperCat" by Atomic Kommie Comics™) was originally published in the late 1950s by now-defunct Ajax/Farrell Publications appearing in several titles including a four-issue run of his own book.
(There was a tidal wave of costumed comic-book critters after the success of Mighty Mouse in the 1940s.
Super-powered mice, dogs, cats, rabbits, bears, worms, even bugs, ran amok in four-color funnies for almost a decade!)
He joins our other classic funny-animal heroes Cosmo Cat and SuperDuper Mouse in our Tykes, Toddlers & Tiny Tots™ G-rated collection of bibs, infant bodysuits/creepers/onesies, infant/toddler t-shirts and kids' tees as well as diaper bags and other useful goodies.
We have over three dozen different kid-friendly vintage designs including circuses, funny animals, spacemen, magicians, robots and cute monsters, all perfect as birthday or back-to-pre-school / kindergarten presents for your little one! And your tyke will look soooo cute in them!

Jessica Alba's lost tv series...Now on DVD!
The first tv series starring Jessica Marie Alba (usually in a swimsuit) is finally on DVD!
Flipper: the New Adventures: Season 1 is now available as one of MGM-TV's "Manufacture on Demand" DVDs for movies and tv series that MGM feels wouldn't sell as mass-market items, but could sell as limited-release DVD-R releases (like the Warner Archive dvds).
Hopefully, if it sells well enough, MGM might issue a blu-ray version...
Note: This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media. Amazon.com's standard return policy will apply.
This disc is expected to play back in DVD Video \"play only\" devices, and may not play in other DVD devices, including recorders and PC drives.
Interestingly, the series has been released in Japan as a mass market item (albeit as half-season sets...)
I am ordering the MoD set, but I'm also looking into getting the Japanese sets (used, if possible), since I have a multi-region player which can handle the Region 2 dvds.

Comics Meet Dance: "Hapless Hooligan in 'Still Moving'"
It's fascinating when live theater and comics (books or strips) combine into a new..."mutation" (for lack of a better word)...
Pulitzer Prize-winning graphic artist Art Spiegelman collaborates with Pilobolus artistic director Michael Tracy and dancers to make Hapless Hooligan in "Still Moving" -- a noirish love story told in the style of early comics.
Commissioned by the Hopkins Center at Dartmouth College, and featuring Pilobolus dancers interacting live with Art's drawings (animated by Hornet's Dan Abdo and Jason Patterson), "Still Moving" tells the tragicomic tale of Hap and Lulu, separated in life and reunited after death.
Tony-winning sound designer Rob Kaplowitz assembles a collage score comprised of obscure cabaret tunes and early jazz hits to create a captivating atmosphere in this remarkable blend of comics and dance.
Now, if only the Broadway-bound Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark production could get underway...
