Welcome to ’Warped Week, a weekly recap of what we’ve been up to at ’Warp Central recently. If you missed anything, now’s the perfect time to catch up!
Blogging-wise it was a pretty light week; sometimes life—in this case, the demands of my day job—just has to take priority, y’know? But I still found time to update you folks on what we’ve been doing around here. For instance:
On Tuesday we brought you up-to-date on SWC comic creators in the news: writer Sholly Fisch, who has a new Mighty Mouse miniseries on the way; comic artist Eliseu Gouveia, who worked on the comic sequel to the action/sci-fi flick Equilibrium; and art legend Ernie Colon, whose new nonfiction political graphic novel, The Torture Report: A Graphic Adaptation, debuted on Tuesday. I also found a way to sneak in a plug for The Saga of Pandora Zwieback Annual #1, a full-color comic published by SWC on which all three gentlemen worked.
Friday was another installment of Hail to the King (Kong), with a month-end recap of all the Kong-related posts that ran in March—movie reviews, comic reviews, cover galleries, etc.
And in yesterday’s installment of Simian Saturdays, we examined King Kong: The Original RKO-General Motion Picture Classic, a well-produced 1960s audio-drama adaptation of the original Kong that was released as an album and sold primarily through the mail-order pages of monster-movie magazines like Famous Monsters of Filmland.
And that’s the (short) week. What’s coming next? You’ll have to keep checking this blog during the days ahead—or join us on Sunday for the next installment of ’Warped Week. See you then!
