Ponyo, DC comics and other news

There's an American Ponyo trailer! I got goosebumps!

Some good books from DC dropping tomorrow. Wonder Woman 33 (continues the Rise of the Olympian (incredibly long) story arc) and Gotham City Sirens. GCS seems to be like Birds of Prey, but eeeevil. Catwoman, Harley and Ivy team up to kick some ass. Written by the amazing Paul Dini.

Play Asia has got a "new" Fushigi Yuugi [Limited Edition] DS game, which seems to be two previous Fushigi Yuugi games rebundled into one. $79.90 + shipping is a little too rich for my blood, but maybe not yours.

Finally, a friend was talking about video game series with great music. The Soul Edge/Calibur series has music that I have always enjoyed, even way back with this cheesy little number that is still one of my favorites to this day.

Utada In Store "Tour" Postponed

Quote from Utada.com

Utada, who is set to release her new album This Is The One on May 12th, has been forced to postpone her promotions to launch the album along with a series of in-store appearances. The 26 year-old artist, who had planned to arrive today May 11th to promote and drive the album release, has been diagnosed with an acute case of left relapsing peritonsillitis.

If you were wondering what peritonsillitis IS, The Free Dictionary says it is: Inflammation of the connective tissue above and behind the tonsil.

Zombie Energy Drink?

The Plants vs Zombies twitter feed has posted a pic of 'Brain Ooze'. Wonder what it tastes like? Probably better than the Final Fantasy potion (or so I hear)

Check it out on Twitpic.

Free Comic Book Day on Saturday

My good buddy Kitsune Rei reminded me that FCBD is this Saturday and linked to this site, with this woooonderful video of (my future ex-husband) Hugh Jackman promoting the event.

Have Some Media

Lots of new stuff for you to see and hear these days. As everyone and their grandma already knows, Marvel vs Capcom 2 is being ported to XBLA and PSN. All of the obligatory 'Take you for a ride', Mahvel Baybee and Curleh Mustache (audio NSFW on that link) jokes have already been made.



I'm more excited about Garou coming out on the 360 myself. Hope it makes it to the US.

And some good news for your ears. AnimeVice now has a podcast (called a Squadcast)
So far, short eps, but hey, we've all got too many dang podcasts

Yotsuba& + Hockey = Random Tangent

3 on 3 NHL arcade Hockey has been released on the XBLA (and has been on PSN for about a week according to Destructoid. If it even remotely brings back memories of NHL Hitz, then it will be wonderful. Plan to play it this weekend.

More good news, Yotsuba is BACK. Rescued from the vast wastelands by Yen Press. Huzzah!

I glossed over most of the NYCC news on the internet last weekend, because there was TOO much to follow. However, in the Yotsuba news bit, Topless Robot adds this bit about some DC shenanigans - DC apparently needed to show a flowchart at NYCC to explain how Batman R.I.P. and Final Crisis worked together, along with all the comics necessary to each one which weren't in their respective series. A flow chart. To understand how to read their comics. Awesome.

I can absolutely understand his feelings. I am confused enough with them bringing Kingdom Come into regular continuity and retconning their crises each time they break the universe. It's no effing wonder it drove Starman insane. I'd just start rambling off about Sloppy Joe Wednesdays if I was him too.

Whoops, tangent.

DC Comics on Facebook

They don't update as often as Marvel, but they're still good updates.
