The Official Handbook Of The Marvel Universe: REDUXE EDITION

First published in comic book format in 1982 The Official Handbook Of The Marvel Universe is an encyclopedic guide of the characters that feature in the Marvel Universe. 'The Reduxe Edition' is a blog where artists are invited to recreate the characters which feature in TOHOTMU in their own style. What you end up with is some of the most obscure Marvel characters that most people would not have heard about re-created in a wide array of styles.

What is a buzzy dude.

This team up came about 15 years too late for me...I would have rocked the fuck out of this as a kid growing up in the 90s...who am I kidding I want this shit now.

Check out the rest of the line HERE. Including of course kids versions.

One of the coolest things about this project was that Pete Rock was at the launch. One of my all time favourite MC/Producer/DJs is also a huge comic fan.

The Punisher - Dirty Laundry

I am not afraid to admit that I have been a comic book geek since I was old enough to read. The constant stream of comic book movies to come out in the last few years has been a god-send. One of my favourite Marvel characters when I was growing up was The Punisher. None of the Punisher movies however have been that great which is a shame as I don't believe it would be that hard to make a great action movie with The Punisher (I never thought I'd see a Batman movie as awesome as the current Christopher Nolan franchise). This short film released at Comic Con a few days ago is the best on-screen punisher story yet...it's a pity it doesn't go for another hour and a half.
