The Isle of Dogs Movie Poster is a Work of Art
In a world of massive Hollywood movies, it's surprising how many marketing departments leave their key poster art in the hands of crazed, would-be photoshop artists who think cutting and pasting a series of images with ridiculous proportion disparity = MEGA EXCITEMENT for prospective movie goers. For all of us raised with beautiful, hand painted posters, there have been many tears. Leave it to Wes Anderson to demand something more.

Elvis Returns in Bubba Ho-Tep and the Cosmic Blood-Suckers
Hail to the King, baby! Prior to the events of the original Bubba Ho-Tep cult story, Elvis was enlisted by President Nixon to defeat an alien threat unlike anything he’s faced before. IDW and award-winning writer Joe R. Lansdale present Bubba Ho-Tep and the Cosmic Blood-Suckers!
“Bubba Ho-Tep was an accidental story that turned out to be my first film adaptation, and it's still going strong in story and film,” said Lansdale. “And finally, it has inspired a background story that was first a novel, and is now represented in the medium that first made me want to be a writer: comics. Graphic novels. What we used to call Funny Books. I'm excited and looking forward to readers discovering it all in color and looking fine. May more Bubba comics burst into existence and give the world the true story of how the world has been protected from evil, and for quite some time. Thank goodness these defenders are out there, working in the shadows.”

James Gunn Returns to Horror
Have you ever seen Slither? No? Ok stop what you are doing right now. If you must, leave work. Head to a store that sells movies and announce loudly that you need a copy of Slither or you may well die. It's just that serious. You begin your new life after your screening has ended.
There was much rejoicing when one of our favorite horror film directors took on the Guardians of the Galaxy, and further rejoicing as he continues his strong of amazing success, and still, it is bittersweet as all of Horror misses his hysterical take on dark times. Last year, Gunn blessed us with the Belko Experiment. Now, it seems, we get our fondest holiday wishes...

Bluefin Announces 1/6th Scale Ghostbusters Ecto-1 Car
Usually, when a company puts out exceptional 12 inch action figures, you can bet those heroes and villains won't be riding around your toy shelves, as their vehicle of choice would be MASSIVE. Of course, there have been some psycho companies that have stepped up to the challenge (coughhottoysbatmobilecough), but it doesn't happen too often. Welp, folks, it's HAPPENING!! Delay that new couch purchase and consider buying a big glass coffee table you can drive a large action vehicle into, because the boys are back in town...and they got a ride...

MGA Releases Crate Creatures Surprise Toys
If you are a part of any groups on Facebook with parents scrambling around toy stores looking to grab the hottest holiday gifts for their kids, you'll notice one refrain. WHAT DO I GET MY LITTLE BOY??!! Now, while you might think this is the ideal time for a lesson in gender equality in the toy aisles...it is not, as the mini human (boy OR girl) who isn't fond of sparkles and pastel colors is woefully under-served this season. Yes, there are plenty of Marvel Comics goodies, Transformers, Justice League and Star Wars characters to be consumed, but where is the original idea that leaves play largely to the imagination of your little kid? MGA steps up to solve the problem.
