Linkblogging for the weekend.

First, the Flashy links

• That F’ing Monkey: Kid Flash Changes
• Francis Manapul posts the Kid Flash #2 cover process.
• Captain Cold by Peter V. Nguyen (via The Fastest Fan Alive)
• Last week’s article on the bronze-age predecessor to Cobalt Blue made DC Comics’ news feed and the Flash’s Facebook page! Thanks!

Next up: Flashpoint.

• Inside Pulse | Geoff Johns: Flashpoint Tie-Ins Fun, But Not Key / Dan Didio: DC Titles Cancelled For Tie-Ins
• Bleeding Cool updated their “Flashpoint will retitle and renumber everything!” rumor from a few months back. This time, instead of renumbering everything during the event as tehy originally claimed, everything’s being renumbered after the event (Personally, I suspect that there will be a bunch of new #1 issues…for things like Batwoman, Static, other new series that have been announced, and several series launching out of Flashpoint.)

And finally, general comics stuff.

• When Words Collide: Millennium and Invasion!
• Collected Editions has spotted signs of a Chase collection. This was an amazing short-lived series from the late 1990s about Cameron Chase, agent of the Department of Extranormal Operations, as she went on missions to keep tabs on super-heroes and super-villains. It was written by D. Curtis Johnson and drawn by J.H. Williams III and Mick Gray.
• The Lessons of DC Universe: Legacies – Grumpy Old Fan
• WonderCon panel report: Life After the Comics Code.
• The Line It Is Drawn #35: Comic Book Spokesmodels
• The Fifth Color: comics aren’t for everyone, but everyone should have comics.

As usual, the Flashy links first:

• It’s always fun when comic book covers break the fourth wall like this Flash & Robin team-up.
• Wow. Nice Inertia vs. Impulse pic!
• Extra Life: Now THAT would be a good movie…
• Francis Manapul spotlight at WonderCon
• White Lantern Captain Boomerang Cosplay at WonderCon
• Devin “Zoom” Johnson

I spent the weekend moving to a new city, so posting’s a bit light. Here’s the round-up of last week’s linkblogging.

First, the Flashy links:

• New Flash forum: The Fastest Forum Alive
• Comics Nexus asks of Flashpoint, Where Is Wally West?
• Comics Nexus considers: Is Geoff Johns leaving The Flash for his new Aquaman series?
• That F’ing Monkey reviews McDonalds’ Kid Flash & Captain Cold Happy Meal toys

And the rest.

• Two pieces on Lois Lane: Lois Lane Needs Her Own Comic Book Series, As Superwoman (Geekscape) and Dean Trippe’s proposal for a series of young adult novels, Lois Lane, Girl Reporter.
• Photo of a building I drove past recently. Do you think there might be a comic store in there?

  

• Tom Bondurant concludes his look at DC’s ongoing series since COIE at Grumpy Old Fan. It’s interesting to see which ones have lasted the longest. #1 is Hellblazer. #2 is The Flash (Wally West).
