‘The Saviors’ Have Arrived… Image Comics to Release TPB w/ First 5 Issues (10/26)

by Jason Bennett
written by Jason Bennett

From Eisner Award-winning writer James Robinson (AIRBOY, Starman) and artist extraordinaire J. Bone (The Rocketeer: Hollywood Horror) comes THE SAVIORS TPB, which collects the first five issues of the alien conspiracy adventure story, this October from Image Comics.

unnamed (28)When Tomas Ramirez stumbles upon an extraterrestrial conspiracy to take over the world, his life is forever altered. Now he’s banding together with those other few souls who share the knowledge that we are under attack as they attempt to defeat a shadowy alien cabal that is both indestructible and eager to kill anyone who threatens it.

‘THE SAVIORS‘ TPB (ISBN 978-1-63215-925-0) hits comic book stores Wednesday, October 26th, and bookstores Tuesday, November 1st, and will be available for $14.99. It can be ordered by retailers with Diamond code AUG160700, and it is available for preorder on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Indiebound, and Indigo.

PRAISE FOR THE SAVIORS:

“THE SAVIORS is a high-quality, slyly modern take on some sci-fi B-movie concepts. Come for the fun of the chase—stay for the superlative J. Bone cartooning, which is classically good in every way.” —Multiversity Comics

“This is a truly unique book, and an exceptionally fun read.” —TM Stash

“A little bit classic sci-fi thriller throwback and part visionary exploration of a concept nearly as old as fiction itself.” —Comic Book Resources

Last Night on CONAN: Steven Ho, David Cross, Dan Naturman (8/30)

by Jason Bennett
written by Jason Bennett

PopCultHQ brings you all the best clips from last night on Conan. On Tuesday, August 30th, Conan had stuntman Steven Ho, actor David Cross (Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt), and comedian Dan Naturman.

CONAN Monologue 08/30/16: Conan jokes about Donald Trump, Ryan Lochte, and more…

 

All The Subtle Foreshadowing In “Southside With You”: It’s a story of a young Barack and Michelle Obama’s first date that contains a surprising amount of Trump references.

Conan Reunites With Samuel The Octopus: Thanks to the Korean board of tourism, Conan’s dearest Korean cephalopod friend is moving in with him here in Hollywood.

 

Steven Ho Takes Conan Back To Basics: Steven thinks Conan has gotten sloppy so he has him concentrate on the martial arts fundamentals: beating up watermelons and homoerotic stretching.

 

David Cross Fought For Tobias’ Mustache In “Arrested Development”: David clearly forgot the three rules of comedy: no facial hair, no hats, and no puffy sleeves.

 

David Cross Gets A Lot Of Walkouts For His Stand-Up: If you’re only familiar with David from TV, you might end up with a bit of a surprise at his stand-up shows.

 

David Cross’ Network TV Debut On “Late Night” Was Censored: It turns out that, in 1994, “Effeminate Southern Dandy Jesus” was just too hot for TV.

 

Dan Naturman Stand-Up 08/30/16: Dan is 45 but sometimes lies about his age. Like when he says he’s 45.

Experimental Graphic Novella to be Released by Image Comics

by Amanda the Brainy Librarian
written by Amanda the Brainy Librarian

Image Comics will be releasing an experimental graphic novella title, “One Week in the Library” written by W. Maxwell Prince and artist John Amor. The comic will include seven short stories, one for each day, spent in the library. It will include comic form, infographics, prose, and poetry to weave the narrative.

unnamed (23)W. Maxwell Prince says, “Telling stories isn’t easy for me. I often find myself really interested in one thing, but then boring of that quickly and moving on to something completely different. This book allowed me to embrace that attention deficit while simultaneously building something with a solid center. The end result, I think, is really fun. It doesn’t move in the ways that comics usually do, but it’s still identifiably a comic book. Except for when it’s not, of course.”

ONE WEEK IN THE LIBRARY with cover art by Frazer Irving will hit comic book stores on Wednesday, December 7th.

The ONE WEEK IN THE LIBRARY trade paperback can also be pre-ordered on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Indiebound, and Indigo.

Last Night on CONAN: Walton Goggins, Tig Notaro, Corinne Bailey Rae (8/29)

by Jason Bennett
written by Jason Bennett

PopCultHQ brings you all the best clips from last night on Conan. On Monday, August 29th, Conan had actor Walton Goggins (Django Unchained, Sons of Anarchy), comedian/actress Tig Notaro (One Mississippi), and musical guest Corinne Bailey Rae.

CONAN Monologue 08/29/16: Conan jokes about Anthony Weiner, Beyoncé, Donald Trump, and more…

 

Remember When Andy Was An MTV VJ?: Andy [hearts] the ’80s. And cocaine.

 

Anthony Weiner’s OTHER Sexts: Anthony Weiner is in trouble again for sending racy pics, but give the guy a break, he’s just a crotch-based photographer.

 

Conan Speaks To Donald Trump’s Doctor: Dr. Harold Bornstein said that Trump would be the healthiest person ever elected as president. Trust him, he’s a doctor of some sort!

 

Walton Goggins’ Horrific Tale Of Losing His Teeth: If you like Walton’s toothy smile, then you’ll be terrified at his story of how they were knocked out.

 

Walton Goggins Is A Hog-Calling Champion: Sadly Walton didn’t do nearly as well in the greased pig chase.

 

Walton Goggins Wore His Cowboy Hat Proudly In Paris: Of course that might be just because Walton was hiding his frosted tips…

 

Walton Goggins Mixes Drinks For Conan & Andy: Walton has his own line of spirits and he gives Conan & Andy a free sample of his wares.

 

Tig Notaro Puts Her Twin Babies In Sia Wigs: Tig wants to get her kids in the public eye but their babysitter Sia is a little more protective.

 

Tig Notaro Isn’t Sure Why “Assh***” Is Bleeped: You can say “ass” and you can say “hole” but if you put them together, it’s a real no-no.

 

Tig Notaro Is Ready For A Minivan: Tig’s wife is convinced that she only wants one for a bit.
