Dan Goldman’s cult favorite webcomic Red Light Properties is about to make its long awaited print debut. Re-edited, re-lettered, re-colored, and re-scripted, the first-ever print edition of Red Light Properties will be available as a trade paperback from Idw Publishing in late January, 2014.
The book includes more than 20 never-before-seen pages and is designed to be the definitive reading experience, the first of an ongoing series of Red Light Properties releases from Idw.
The critically-acclaimed Red Light Properties presents the adventures of an ambitious Miami real estate agency with a very specific business model. The husband-and-wife-run agency unearths properties that are unsellable because they’re haunted. The husband then cleans out said haunted homes by whatever (often unsavory) means necessary. The ghosts find closure. The seller unloads their property. The Rlp Agency receives a fee. Everyone wins… except maybe for the Tobins, who are barely on speaking terms. You see,...

The big news in comics today is the massive reboot going on over at DC. Jim Lee and Geoff Johns' "Justice League" #1 went on sale all over the country to kick it off, and the two of them have been touring New York City on the signing circuit to promote it. Lee even tweeted some photographic evidence.
Opinions on what DC's relaunched titles will accomplish varied. A couple of takes, along with Edgar Wright's "Game of Thrones" discovery and info about a "Powers" pilot cut you can't see unless you're at Brian Michael Bendis' house made the rundown today.

One of these days, when I've had more experience, I will have to sit down and make a list of top ten World War II films. Would Saving Private Ryan make the list? Before you answer take a look at this list of films: From Here to Eternity, Au Revoir, Les Enfants, The Thin Red Line, Schindler's List, Casablanca, Stalag 17, The Bridge on the River Kwai, The Dirty Dozen, Mrs. Miniver, Patton, The Big Red One, The Great Escape, Das Boot, The Train, The Best Years of Our Lives, The Guns of Navarone, The Longest Day, A Walk In the Sun, The Pianist, Europa, Europa, The Diary of Anne Frank and To Hell and Back.
Obviously, just asking whether or not Saving Private Ryan would make a top ten list of WWII films means it's pretty damned good and Paramount's Blu-ray release of the film serves to verify that.

Saving Private Ryan (Blu-Ray)Paramount Home Entertainment1998/Rated R/ 169 minsNow Available – List Price: $39.99Every now and then its nice to go back to an influential film especially if its by a filmmaker who continually re-invents himself. Steven Spielberg's Saving Private Ryan came as a surprise to moviegoers in the summer of 1998. Though promoted as a simple story of a unit of GI's sent to locate the last surviving member of a family of serviceman, the film was actually a full blown war movie set against the WWII invasion of Normandy. The film marked Spielberg's second with his DreamWorks Pictures after leaving Universal as well as the second major success for the studio after Deep Impact a few weeks earlier. Critics and audiences knew Spielberg could handle gut wrenching drama after the success of Schindler's List in 1993, but could he do it again? This war movie not only proved that he could,...

Chicago – One of the reasons that Blu-ray hasn’t taken over like so many of the technology’s early adopters hoped that it would is that a lot of the films that drove the success of standard DVD weren’t available on the format. It has taken time for early DVD hits like “The Matrix” and even “The Lord of the Rings” to come out in HD. When people buy a Blu-ray machine, they want to be able to get their favorite films right away. Now they can add another long-wanted option to the first-day-purchase list with “Saving Private Ryan”.
Blu-Ray Rating: 4.0/5.0
Paramount has been somewhat quietly releasing their most acclaimed films of the last twenty years in a mini-collection called the Sapphire Series, releasing “Gladiator,” “Braveheart,” and “Forrest Gump” in the second half of 2009 and adding “Saving Private Ryan” to the set just in time for Father’s Day.

Trying to determine to best war film has become, in fairly mainstream circles, almost as popular and pointless an activity as trying to determine the best film itself; in almost every attempt that I’ve seen, Saving Private Ryan has been mentioned. Whether or not it is the best film ever made about war, or even World War II, will probably never be safely assured (to be completely frank, it almost certainly isn’t, as most of the really angry and pathos-ridden films on the subject came out of Eastern Europe). But Saving Private Ryan’s place in history has been secured not by its technical achievements or its advancements in public understanding of the war (both of which considerable), but in its ability to embody seemingly conflicting American ideals about warfare without ever contradicting itself or imploding under the weight of the national mythos that it effortlessly evokes.

Marvel waited until the 11th hour before Apple's iPad launch to announce their custom comics-viewing app from ComiXology, but the move quickly put them in the spotlight for discussion of comics on the new device. Author Cory Doctorow saw some problems with the app in post over on Boing Boing, though, and his stance prompted a few creators to take sides in the Twitter Report feed.
Meanwhile, I'm pretty sure everyone should be willing to support Jon Favreau, who logged in to Twitter last night to verify that he's finished "Iron Man 2" and delivered the movie on time. Share his moment of triumph after the jump along with a snazzy piece of "Sandman" art from Jill Thompson and some bewilderment about casting in "The First Avenger: Captain America."
It's all in the Twitter Report for April 2, 2010.

If you've ever visited Smith magazine, you've probably been there for the great comics (A.D.: After the Deluge, The Pekar Project, Next-Door Neighbor, Graphic Therapy, Shooting War, and My Home Birth) and their innovative Six Word Memoirs. Inspired by the famous anecdote of Ernest Hemingway telling a complete story in only six words ("For Sale: Baby shoes, never worn") they've gotten enough contributions from readers to fill an entire series of Six Word Memoir books.
Amazingly, though, they haven't really combined the two.*
It works suprisingly well, and a few of them are already made for it-- "With great power comes great responsibility"; "Truth, Justice, and the American Way"; "Criminals are a superstitious, cowardly lot"-- and so we've decided to jump start the process. So here are our first six:
Reed Richards: Don't worry, the shielding will hold.Batman: I promised on my parents' grave.Wonder Woman: War's easy.

Do you remember famous scenes from movies like Saving Private Ryan, Band of Brothers, Letters From Iwo Jima? For a minute or so, let's just talk about Saving Private Ryan since that is probably the most recognized film from the above mentioned. Now go back in your mind and pull from memory that initial scene where U.S. soldiers are storming the beach. Do you recall how dramatic that scene was? If so, let me introduce you to a DVD that shows you where some of that footage came from.
Shooting War: World War II Combat Cameramen goes way beyond Hollywood and gives you an unprecedented point of view from what soldiers and cameramen in World War II faced.
Do not expect any fancy Hollywood special effects here. What you have is a first rate documentary on the lives of cameramen...
