Friday Runaround – From The Daily Show To The Northampton Herald

Being an employer this year is like being a girl at Comic Con. It doesn't matter how offensively inaccurate your pre-Crisis Of Infinite Earth Supergirl costume is, you're not going home alone. It's all about the headband John, you've got to get it just right – John Hodgman, The Daily Show, 19th September 2013.

WHAT IF GALACTUS WAS A WATCHER?

Unseen Watcher artwork by Jack Kirby. Tom Brevoort says;

Here's another piece of art Kirby withheld from Marvel – a splash page of the Watcher in his space suit. There's evidence that Kirby intended to reveal that the Watcher and Galactus were from the same race/planet/people, but Stan Lee had other plans. This pencil art was first published in Kirby Unleashed in 1971.

GHOST IN THE HOLLYWOOD MACHINE

It was originally going to be a project with Syfy. But after Sixth Gun didn't exactly happen after its pilot, it looks like Ghost Projekt, also represented by publisher Oni Press, is now with NBC.

Deadline reports;

NBC has put in development Ghost Projekt, a drama based on the Oni Press graphic novel series written by Joe Harris and illustrated by Steve Rolston. Written by John Glenn and feature writer/director André Øvredal (Troll Hunter), the show centers on an American UN weapons inspector and a Russian FSB agent who are forced to team up to chase a group of thieves before they end up spreading dangerous supernatural material stolen from an old abandoned Soviet weapons lab. Feature writer/director Øvredal will direct the pilot and serve as co-executive producer. Glenn will executive produce with Close On Mondays' Eric Gitter for Universal TV and Oni Press' sister company Closed On Mondays, which has a first-look deal at the studio.
