Illustrated by R. Crumb (Hardcover)
Ever since I learned about this on the internet and read its excerpt in the December 2009 issue of Playboy, I tried to search for its digital version. As luck would have it, I found the high quality scans of "Jojo" (he is also the scanner of the Walt Disney's Christmas Classics Vol. 1 Hardcover I had posted earlier) and here we are. Playboy bills it as "the world's most endearingly perverted storyteller's take" on the first book of the Bible, all 50 chapters of it.

Considering the nature of R. Crumb's work (honestly and totally irreverent) and his stature (he is one of the pioneers of underground comics gone mainstream) and considering the subject of his illustrations, I must say I do not intend to offend delicate and/or religious sensitivities; my only purpose is to present--and share--here what surely is a groundbreaking and landmark work in comic art. Oh, and please read R. Crumb's Introduction found in page 9 of this CBR--it's priceless. MATURE READERS.

In library terms, this new ongoing first issue would be issue #79 for IDW Publishing. And what a great way to start the new ongoing series, too!

I, PAPARAZZI: It begins innocently enough with tabloid photos of Reed and Sue on the beach, then Johnny out on the town, and then some rather unkind photos of Ben Grimm devouring every last hot dog and salted pretzel from a street cart vendor, but when the secret laboratories and inner recesses of the Baxter Building start appearing on the cover of the new Superhero Trumpet tabloid, the FF are forced into questioning how and when these photos are being taken. And what do Egghead and his 70 foot tall friend, Gargantua have to do with it? A lot, really.

Dark Reign: The List: Hulk #1 (One-Shot)
CBZ | Oct 2009 | 50 Pages (2 Covers) | 36.9 MB

Dark Reign: The List is a collection of one-shots dealing with different characters in the Marvel Universe who are hunted by Osborn as based on a checklist he had made of those he thinks most dangerous to him. It sets the status quo for many books. In The List: Hulk Norman Osborn emphatically decides that now permanently-puny Bruce Banner and his son Skaar are threats, and sends Moonstone and a tricked-out Victoria Hand to deal with him. As per usual where the Dark Avengers are concerned, the battle is sort of dirty and underhanded, and therein lies the fun of it

Norman Osborn thought he had a
 plan for keeping the Green Goliath from mussing his wavy coif -- but he forgot about the Hulk's most dangerous incarnation. Now the H.A.M.M.E.R. comes down as Banner and Skaar face Osborn's deadliest femme fatales in a monumental battle of brawn and brains. Plus a reprinting of Amazing Spider-Man #14, the first appearance of the Green Goblin & guest-starring The Hulk. Story by Greg Pak; Art by Ben Oliver; Colors by Justin Ponsor; Letters by Simon Bowland

Star Trek: Nero #3 (of 4)
CBR | Nov 2009 | 23 Pages | 9 MB

The 2009 hit film Star Trek, directed by J.J. Abrams, was essentially a re-start of the original five-year mission, for which IDW Publishing laid the groundwork for the story in the four-issue prequel comics series, Star Trek: Countdown (the complete miniseries is also posted here on Avax by bigsid--just search for it). Written by Mike Johnson and Tim Jones, and based on a story by Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman, Countdown introduced the character Nero and also spanned the gap between Nemesis and the Enterprise’s earliest voyages in Star Trek. One of the biggest questions fans have about the Star Trek movie is "What was Nero doing for 25 years?" because the time between the attack on the USS Kelvin and the arrival of Spock and the Jellyfish is left blank. Well, Star Trek: Nero will fill in that gap, with the same creative team behind Countdown. It is considered part of the ongoing rebirth of the Star Trek franchise for which IDW Publishing is playing an active part.

With creative insights, artists' sketches, helpful insider hints, and step–by–step instructions, enter the imagination of "master doodler" Matt Groening and receive some professional "how–to" advice from many of the animators and directors who have made "The Simpsons" the longest–running animated show and situation comedy in television history.
