Saturday 28th of August is International Read Comics in Public Day!
We reckon every day is a good day to read comics in public, but Saturday 28th of August is the day to make a special effort to show the rest of the world how many people enjoy reading comics.
So on Saturday grab your favourite comic from home or swing into Impact Comics and grab something new and read it on the bus, at your favourite coffee shop, at the pub, at the footy... anywhere in public!
To get even more involved we want you to take a photo of yourself reading comics in public and share it.
You can upload it to the Flickr group, send it to the official Facebook Page or email it to the official International Read Comics in Public website.
What do the comic series Superman: Red Son, Wanted, Civil War, Wolverine: Old Man Logan, Nemesis & Kick-Ass all have in common?
Most of them (but not Red Son or Old Man Logan... yet) inspired movies and computer games.
They were all written by Mark Millar.
AND...
The first issue of every one of these sold out in a stupidly short amount of time!
So when Mark Millar announces an exciting new super hero series for mature readers, you know that if you don't speak up early you WILL miss out. Superior is a six issue adults only mini series written by Mark Millar with art by Leinil Francis Yu starting in October. So don't hesitate start a standing order NOW!
The Phantom is the most popular and well loved comic character in Australia. The Australian publisher, Frew, has been producing comics of The Phantom for over 60 years! In the US the Phantom publishing schedule has been less consistent.
The latest publisher to take up the mask and the purple tights is Dynamite Entertainment! Dynamite Entertainment have made a name for themselves for resurrecting forgotten costumed heroes with their Project Superpowers and Lone Ranger comics and more recently with The Green Hornet.
Dynamite have decided to begin at the end with The Last Phantom THIS WEEK (Issue 1 will be on shelves Friday 20th August) as their first comic series to feature the Ghost Who Walks.
Superstar artist Alex Ross has redesigned the classic hero for this tale with a brutal new look (don't worry, that's berry juice.) The Phantom often gets little tweaks to his costume for stories in other eras, but never before anything this dramatic! Check out an interview here. UPDATE! Dynamite acquires the rest of the Defenders of the Earth...
Start a Standing Order now for The Last Phantom so you don't miss a single issue!

With the San Diego Comic-Con International about to start all of the mainstream media are getting excited about comic book movies.
So as a celebration of Comic-Con Entertainment Weekly have used their front cover to unveil the completely computer generated costume from the upcoming Green Lantern movie! Collider.com provided this HUGE super hi resolution version of the image.
Ryan Reynolds (fresh from playing Deadpool in the Wolverine movie for rival comic publisher Marvel) has been filming all his scenes in a grey body suit so that the glowing green space cop uniform of the Green Lantern Corp could added digitally in post production. This is the first image of the final product, looking decidedly... sinewy. What do you think?
