Asgards before Arachnids!

In a great turn of events, Marvel’s THOR movie might actually be coming out before the Spidey 4 movie  on May 6th 2011 according to Variety Magazine! We say woot to that as Mutant A Day is currently on Asgard in the first installment of  Ultimate Alliance and loving the Storm/Thor team ups with Aaron M. 

This really calls for a throwback to Adventures in Babysitting! Enjoy!

Adventures in Babysitting - Touchstone Pictures 1987

Artist Watch: Chad Hardin

There are few things we love more than sketch cards! Where the hell did this love of tiny pieces of art come from anyway?  With Mutant a Day actually owning 3 or 4 sketch cards from the Marvel Masterpieces card series, we are always looking up artists that have contributed to said great series of cards!

Check out artist Chad Hardin’s beauteous cards! and check out his blog HERE for more insight into his world and art!

Hat Trick: Zatanna!

Art by Chad Hardin

In April 2010 the zexy Justice League member Zatanna will be getting her own series!

If that wasn’t exciting enough, Paul Dini will be the writer for the series! Stephane Roux will provide the art staritng off the series along with Chad Hardin. This is such a treat for me because Dini’s version of Zatanna is by far my favorite.

Kirsten Does it Again!

No, I’m not blaming Dunst for ruining the Spiderman franchise…that took the majority of the cast.  Read what Aaron M. has to say about the recent Spidey 4 film developments.

Spider-Man 4 is most likely going to be pushed back due to script problems.  It has been reported that they were having trouble deciding on the villains for the film. 
 
I don’t think this is a bad thing. They should really take their time making this film.  The first two movies were OK and the third was just awful, so they need to make a much needed recovery with the fourth film.  The next movie needs to be on par with movies like Iron Man and The Dark Knight, otherwise they don’t need to make another Spider-Man Movie at all.

The Variants Episode 6: The Heist

“Kiss the ring Care Bear!”…”You’re not wearing a ring”…”Not on my finger”

Episode 6 of The Variants is funny from start to finish with a build on the friendship between Keli & Joe as they venture to other local comic shops to recover a comic that was mistakenly sold by Joe to a Ally Sheedy-esqu customer [circa The Breakfast Club pre makeover]!  Check it out!

Shocking Nostalgia!

Here at Mutant a Day we like to  Cher share our joys with the world.  During X-mas there is no better time to buy presents than the weeks following!  The always awesome Aaron M. took it upon himself to purchase the Mjöllnir-like- hammer-wielding-Asgardian goddess-Storm-statue for me ! [wheww...that was alot].

It’s beautiful…really.  And reminded me of my prize posession…and not cause it’s worth anything really, but because I love the cover/story; X Men Annual #9 from 1985!

Cover Art: Adams, Simonson, Zaime - Writer: Claremont

Now you guys can take it upon yourselves to look up the Asgardian Goddess Storm statue, but the pictures I’ve found have been sub-par, so I’ll put up pics later tonight! Cheers!

X-Babies

Its true, our aversion to tiny people is not completely 100% thanks to a new mini [hah] series of the X Babies, with 5 issues currently out and a hand full of variant covers we can’t not pick these little guys up!

Aww so cute!

Iron Out’d

With the holigays holidays MaD kind got wrapped up in the driving all over the outskirts of Murdersville and Hero,town,ville…er whatevs to visit everyone.  We haven’t forgotten about what really matter, comics and upcoming movies.  [Side note: Aaron M and I have been also kind of wrapped up in Ultimate Alliance!]
