Young Justice

Let's get 2011 off to a great start with a post featuring the guys of Cartoon Network's newest action series Young Justice.  The screencaps in today's post are from the pilot, which aired in November.  The show starts airing regularly later this month.

I liked the pilot and its unique take on the characters.  It's sort of what I expected the Teen Titans cartoon to be like.

The image archive for today's post features over 200 bonus screencaps.

Misfits #8: Comics

I've been slacking off a bit when it comes to comics posts. The last one was back in...January. So, to make up for that, today's post is a Misfits special edition featuring nothing but comic pics.

First up is a great pic of Aquaman by Jesus Saiz from Brave and The Bold #33.

Mon-El strikes a Superman-like figure in this two-page spread by Bernard Chang from Superman #696.

Jean-Claude shows his stuff on the cover of the first issue of the next Anita Blake series by Brett Booth.

Next, here are two scans from Flash: Rebirth #6 by Ethan Van Sciver.

A long while back, someone requested pics of the Marvel hero Speedball (aka Penance). Well, I finally found a decent pic of him in Avengers: The Initiative #33 with art by Jorge Molina.

Mark Bagley, one of my favorite artists after his run on Ultimate Spider-Man, did the pencils for the cover and single interior scan from JLA #41.

I like John Cassaday's cover for The Lone Ranger #20. The guy in the pic is actually The Lone Ranger's friend Tonto.

This post concludes with three scans from Justice League: Rise and Fall Special. The first two spotlight Green Arrow from the front and the back. The third scan seems to be tailor-made for a certain blog. The credits for this comic list three different people for pencils but no page numbers. As such, I don't know who actually did these pages.

This concludes another Misfits post. Another manga/anime heavy Misfits post will be coming up in a couple of weeks. And don't forget...All-Request Week 2010 begins Monday.

Aquaman

It's always been interesting to me how Aquaman has been a bit of a running gag.  Maybe the Super Friends show made him lame or possibly the costume...who knows?  Namor has wings on his ankles yet he's cooler for some reason. 

Regardless, here are a few pics of the hero.

 

  

  

 

Merry Christmas! - Comics

The second Christmas-themed post features selected scans from the 2008 DCU Holiday Special.

Any guesses on who the young man in these pics grows up to be?  I won't spoil it but I can tell you it's not Superman:

I'm happy to see old-school Aquaman in these pics:

Finally, a touching ending to a story involving Robin and Nightwing on Christmas Eve:

HFG will be taking a short holiday break.  New posts will start up again on December 27th. 

I hope everyone out there has a wonderful and merry Christmas!
