Marvin The Martian, Hong Kong Phooey – Friday Trending Topics
Marvin the Martian's appearance in Duck Dodgers in the 24 1/2th Century is from 1953, I happened to notice just now. Though I probably first saw it some 20 years later, I remember it like it was yesterday. I see io9 has via'd Brendon's post and called these shorts horrifying, soul-crushing, and day-ruining, but… really, I think they're mostly fine. There's some nice references to the original source material in Marvin, though he needs Bugs or Daffy to play off of, to really work well. And it's not like Hong Kong Phooey was the height of Saturday morning splendor in the day (again, I should know, I sat through all of them at the time), and while it was fun enough, the most memorable thing about it is the theme song and the snickering cat.

Dan Slott Breaks The Internet In Half. Literally
Every now and then, someone says, "This will break the internet in half" or some other great piece of hyperbole. I can say this with a straight face — and not an ounce of shame or showmanship — this is the biggest damn thing I've ever done with any character in any story I've ever worked on.
