18 Zatoichi films on Hulu now..

http://www.hulu.com/zatoichi-the-blind-swordsman

Well, I know what I'll be doing for the next half month :)

If you have never seen this line of movies, do it. Next to Mafune's role in Seven Samurai; Katsu's blind swordsman character is one of the best I've ever seen on film, in any genre.

The events look nice: http://www.heroesonline.com/heroescon/schedule/ They look to have a lot more workshop oriented offerings then some of the other cons. I'm excited to check it out. I m...

I would assume it is mirrored on the historical styles of Miyomoto Musashi who is attributed to the creation of the 'two-sword' style of japanese swordfighting. Or at least the only person through history who can be directly correlated earliest in primary material to such a style. It is known as Hyō...

Very nice work. It reminds me a little bit of David Petersen's Mouse Gaurd coloring. (which is a compliment)

Looks like really good work. This is a must buy (along with Yokai of course). I think your fan base is about to grow.

If you are like me + Robotech is in your blood... now online

Nice announcement! I think this is an awesome move. They've had their Robotech : Shadow Chronicles movie on Hulu for some time. They must have miraculously noticed... "hey, our sales are up for some reason... " Very good marketing.

Get it while it's still free...

Very interesting graphics to it. It's a low profile game. About 35MB after install.

I finally received them, and have to say, they look wonderful. It took a while to get them. (order snafu) but overall I'm pleased. They are in mint condition. For comics from 1991 and 1992, I'm impressed how nice they look. Unless these are reprints, but I do not think they are.

Understood. I'd quess 95%+ of optioned rights are not taken to film. I think though in the case of Elfquest, the IP owners are actually in pre-production with the director. If you watch the following videos here of the ElfQuest comic con panel, it sounds like they are a beyond an option bid and movi...

Phewwwww. I was beginning to think he may actually be a demon or devil and needed to hide it by grinding it daily ; like hellboy. I like the practical answer!
