This just might be the greatest thing ever...

You can keep your All Star Batman & Robin. Now we've got what just might be the greatest comic ever:

Armageddon Now: World War 3



Rob Liefeld adapts the Book of Revelation.



What is it?
a new, original 120-page graphic novel planned for release this summer as part one of an eventual 5-part book series.




Sayeth Rob:
I've already heard how violent it is and I'm like, "Have you ever read the Bible before?" You’re not likely to find a more violent, sexual, treacherous book.

Bay Area Readers!

See You At NY Comic Co




For those of you in the NYC area, I'll be signing, drawing, and selling junk at the Comic Con this weekend on Friday, April 18. At 2pm, I'll be at the Andrews McMeel Universal (AMU) booth signing posters of my new pirate cartoons book cover. The book won't be out until August, so these posters will be collector's items!

After that is over, about 3pm, I'll be hopping over to the IndieSpinnerRack booth and hanging out for a couple hours selling and signing my retrospective book (blue cover) from last year, drawing elaborate sketchcards (see examples below, front and back) for a nominal price, and selling my new line of trading cards, which are not even in stores yet! What?! Oh my god, ("oh my nobody" for atheist readers) the three or four Bizarro fans who show up for this event will go home with some rare booty, indeed!

Hope to see you there –and if you tell me you found out about it on my blog, I'll give you an extra special premium gift! Don't know what yet, but try not to act disappointed when you see it. www.nycomiccon.com

Take A Lap, Maggot!

Today's Bizarro brought to you by tiny, creeping gnomes with lumpy hats.

What is a "life coach"? Do I need one? Will he be an overweight jackass with a bad haircut who makes me run laps when I talk back? And more importantly, if I don't have a good life coach, might I lose? How much time do I have to get ready for the playoffs?

I've never been arrested and hope to keep that streak going for a long time, but if ever I am, I hope I can remember to say this line.
