Hail to the Kings of Horror, Baby!

Disappointed that the tantalizing Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash movie looks like it will never happen? Well, don't worry, because DC Comics has you covered. Capitalizing on the enormous grassroots popularity of the concept among fanboys, DC has taken the initiative and launched a six-part limited series that picks up right where Freddy vs. Jason left off, and throws everyone's favorite chainsaw-toting sales clerk in for good measure.
Here's the synopsis from DCcomics.com:
In the bloody wake of the hit movie Freddy vs. Jason, Freddy Krueger finds himself clinging to the last shred of fear that allows him to exist…inside the demented mind of Jason Voorhees. Unwillingly bonded together, the murderous pair must seek out the Necronomicon, the only solution to their mutual torment. Nothing can stop this unholy alliance -- except the wisecracking, chainsaw-wielding Ash, aimed at destroying the Book of the Dead once and for all!
Written by James Kuhoric, with art by Jason Craig and covers by J. Scott Campbell (no relation to Bruce), the series is put out by DC's Wildstorm imprint. Issue #1 came out a month ago, and issue #2 just hit last week. Here are the street dates for the remaining four:
  • #3: December 26
  • #4: January 23
  • #5: February 27
  • #6: April 3

Are you as frustrated as I am about this new pop-up thing when you click blog images? How come the images no longer just appear full size in a browser? Any idea if this is a glitch or if this is some new blogger feature? I have a couple readers really buggin' out about it.

Unfortunately, I think it's a new feature. The pix now pop-up seperately as jpegs when you click on them. Not sure why they did this, maybe to prevent readers from being directed off the main page??

Apparently this is NOT a new blogger feature, I just found this bit of info online, but the "workaround" that Jordan mentions does not work, as many people have already commented upon:

From Blogger Employee

Hi all,
As some of you have pointed out, this is a known issue that we're aware of and working to quickly fix. While we do that, there's a workaround you can use, which we posted on our Known Issues blog:

Please give that a try until we're able to release the fix.

Thanks! Jordan

Guess this means we'll just have to wait (semi-)patiently until Blogger gets their deal straightened out...
