Ok we aren’t super fans of bobbleheads, but we are super fans of super heroes who are super cute. So we [we mean Marvel] give you Marvel POP Bobble Heads. They are adorable. Remind me of those Ninja Turtle Ice Creams with the bubblegum eyes. Makes me miss Mighty Muggs though. Check it out HERE!

Do you fear what you’ve become? Marvel is putting out teasers with our favorite, and maybe not so favorite heroes dressed as some of the biggest villains. Did Scott get hunkier? Or is it just me? Thank god for some Terry Dodson, am I right ladies?

We’ve said it before [in the title] and we will say it again; Mutant A Day is mad about Tokidoki‘s Marvel line of apparel. Check out Windiebird, Aaron M. and myself sporting the Wolverine hoodie! I gotta say, our models are a tad more sexy than then the ones on the site though. [But maybe I'm being a tad bias]

One Mr. Stanley Tucci has been cast to star as Dr. Abraham Erskine in the new Marvel flick, Captain America: The First Avenger. As one of our favorite actors [since his role as Puck in A Midsummer Night's Dream] Tucci has made all of the movies he has been in hits with his quick wit, great acting skills and smoldering looks!

CCO Joe Quesada; Marvel.com
Former Current Editor-in-Chief, Joe Quesada has been named Chief Creative Officer of Marvel Entertainment, LLC.
But not without a PRICE!!! DUN DUN DUN! Not really. He will remain E-in-C as well continuing to bring about what he’s been bringing about for the past decade.
This move much like the mousey move a few months ago a-la Disney, has not gone without some ridicule from Marvel fans. We the people, at MaD, don’t really have a big issue with him being CCO.
Just continue giving us what we want; more Second Coming, more Heroic Age [More gay Colossus] and more great art, and we will golden shower you with praise. And by you, we mean Marvel as a whole. It takes a village, right ladies?
Check out Marvel News for the story and tell us what you think about the comments below it. Are you an angry Marvel Fan, or do you think all of this is heading in the right direction?

Second Coming is the third instillation to the Messiah Complex and the Messiah War! The story will conclude Cable & Hope’s journey from the future wrath of X-Man Bishop to the present where all characters collide in what promisses to be one of the most exciting story lines since The Dark Phoenix Saga! A schorcher for sure! Coming out in March 2010

Ladies & gentles, I have a confession. I am a teenage drama queen. And more importantly, Siege is blowing my mind! Siege is Marvel’s four-part miniseries culminating in seven full years of drama and setup on good ol’ Earth 616, focusing on Norman Osborn’s attack on the newly-materialized Asgard. There are, as always, tie-ins and one-shots that fully flesh out the details and background of the story but the meat of the conflict is contained in the main series. We prefer all meats to be well-contained.
Anyways, I love many Marvel characters but I have certainly been spotty in my following of the Marvel U’s story in the past few years. I’ve picked up a few collections (House of M, Death of Cap, things like that) but I haven’t been a True Believer. With talks about the dawn of a new Heroic Age for many of our favorite marvelous heroes it had me thinking about jumping back into the fray of collecting.
Siege, if you had any doubts, is THE perfect place to jump in on. The reader is given a brief introduction in the beginning of the book and it is more than enough to follow the story contained in Siege. THEN at the end of the first issue, we’re given a special round of Cup O’ Joe wherein Joe Quesada explains all of the threads that have led to Siege and what might come next. Honestly, it’s like this series was made for me. Not only am I feeling up-to-speed with the rest of the readership but I’m truly (and sexually) excited for what’s to come and what I might be able to get in on with this bright age approaching. I’m recommending Siege for anyone with the ability to read and an interest in Marvel. Which should be everyone. I’ve been catching bits of Blackest Night as well and we’re quite “stoked” (we ams so straight, y’allz) about Brightest Day and what that could mean for the DCU as well but I had to share my newfound, polyamorous attraction to Marvel!
Looks like everyone is headed towards the light (Italian dressing at the salad bar).
Happy Olympics Day & enjoy your Valentine’s!

Tokidoki the Japanese inspired company teams up with Marvel to make some uber cute apparel.
 Tokidoki was created by Italian artist Simone Legno who has done some amazing collaborations with Hello Kitty, Smashbox, and ipod. You can purchase a Tokidoki x Marvel t-shirt for $28, a hoodie for $65, and a Hat for $35. These prices are not too bad, this seems like the normal price you would pay for a t-shirt or hoodie at the mall. These adorable products will be released in February 2010, which these would make a great Valentines gift.
