Give Comics Go Pink to Fight Cancer Collectibles at Christmas!

More than 50 of King Features Syndicate's comic strip artists did their Sunday, October 10th 2010, strips with a pink color theme, a mention about fighting breast cancer, or both.
Besides the strips themselves, King Features produced a line of kool kollectibles using the art from those strips that you can order HERE.
A percentage of each product's cost goes directly to breastcancer.org to pay for cancer research.
For more info, and to see the complete set of strips from 10/10/10, go HERE.
The money goes to cancer research, and they'd make GREAT Christmas gifts for a comic-strip-loving breast cancer survivor or in remembrance of a loved one who passed away due to breast cancer!

YouTube Wednesday: THE GREEN HORNET "Deadline for Death"

Continuing our weekly feature "YouTube Wednesday"...
A series of robberies of wealthy homes has one thing in common...all the victims had recently been profiled by Daily Sentinel reporter Mike Axford!
Has he used his interviews to case the homes?
When Axford is arrested at the site of the latest break-in, The Green Hornet and Kato must uncover evidence to free the hapless newshound.
SideNotes:
The Green Hornet has his first solo fight scene...which he loses! (To be fair, it is against three guys.) When he and Kato catch up to the three crooks in the finale, guess who wins?
Seeking info, The Hornet questions a stolen-goods fence named Tubbs, indicating that he's been allowing the fence to continue operating as long as he served The Hornet when needed. A nice touch, adding credibility to the crimefighter's cover as a criminal.
Later, there's a scene at Reid's home where the duo, in costume, but without masks or hats, review evidence. This happens several times in the series. (You never saw Batman and Robin partially in costume)
More location shooting, this time at a small local airport and aircraft hanger also used in several Batman episodes.
Much more day-for-night photography.
Here's the 12th filmed and aired episode..."Deadline for Death".
