New #1 issues this week include Comic Book Comics #1, from the crew that brought us Action Philosophers!

Joss Whedon strikes again with Serenity Better Days #1 (of 3) While reading your comics, consider drinking (carefully) from the Marvel Bronze Age Toon Tumblers! If you’re looking for something a little more Golden-Age inspired, you should check out the Hawkman figure from DC Reactivated Series 4!

Incredible Hulk Teaser Trailer To Debut On March 12

INCREDIBLE HULK TEASER TRAILER TO DEBUT ON MARCH 12

hulk_2.jpgThe first teaser trailer for hotly anticipated summer superhero epic “THE INCREDIBLE HULK” will have its exclusive broadcast debut in a simultaneous “roadblock” on seven networks on Wednesday, March 12. This first opportunity to see material from the motion picture will be aired at approximately 8:56 p.m. Central Standard Time on MTV, MTVU, MTV2, VH1, Spike TV , Nick at Nite and CMT.

Following the on-air premiere, the trailer will be immediately posted on MTV.com for an exclusive period. The trailer will begin showing in theaters across the country on Friday, March 14, with prints of Rogue Pictures’ DOOMSDAY.

“THE INCREDIBLE HULK” hits theaters worldwide on June 13, 2008.

About “THE INCREDIBLE HULK”

“THE INCREDIBLE HULK” kicks off an all-new, explosive and action-packed epic of one of the most popular superheroes of all time. In this new beginning, scientist Bruce Banner (Edward Norton) desperately hunts for a cure to the gamma radiation that poisoned his cells and unleashes the unbridled force of rage within him: The Hulk.

Living in the shadows — cut off from a life he knew and the woman he loves, Betty Ross (Liv Tyler) — Banner struggles to avoid the obsessive pursuit of his nemesis, General Thunderbolt Ross (William Hurt), and the military machinery that seeks to capture him and brutally exploit his power.

As all three grapple with the secrets that led to The Hulk’s creation, they are confronted with a monstrous new adversary known as The Abomination (Tim Roth), whose destructive strength exceeds even The Hulk’s own. And on June 13, 2008, one scientist must make an agonizing final choice: accept a peaceful life as Bruce Banner or find heroism in the creature he holds inside — THE INCREDIBLE HULK.

Stephen King Talks about Dark Tower

STEPHEN KING TALKS ABOUT DARK TOWER

darktower201.jpgAuthor Stephen King will give a live interview to discuss the state of comics tied to the release of Marvel Comics’ Dark Tower: The Long Road Home, the second story arc in his ground-breaking epic series Dark Tower on NPR’s esteemed program Talk of The Nation this Wednesday, March 12th from 1:30-2:00 PM Central Standard Time carried locally on WHA-AM: 970

“Marvel Publishing is grateful to Stephen for taking the time out of his busy schedule to talk about The Dark Tower comic series and comic books as a whole,” says Ruwan Jayatilleke, Marvel Entertainment Vice President of Development. “We’re excited that this will offer a chance to introduce this phenomenal epic—and medium of entertainment— to NPR’s listeners as well as reward loyal Dark Tower fans with some highly entertaining radio!”

The second installment of the best-selling, critically acclaimed comic book series hit stores on March 5th with the continuing saga of the last Gunslinger in Dark Tower: The Long Road Home. The series reunites the all-star creative team of Dark Tower expert Robin Furth, The New York Times best-selling author Peter David, Eisner Award-winning artist Jae Lee and fan favorite illustrator Richard Isanove, who turned the first series Dark Tower: The Gunslinger Born into the comic book event of 2007 — making it one of the year’s top selling series.

Exploring a chapter in Roland’s life that is only hinted at in the novels, Dark Tower: The Long Road Home is the must-have that no comic book or Dark Tower fan can miss, and no fan of comics can afford to miss King’s live interview on NPR!

Here’s a link for an archive of NPR’s podcast of the interview.
