The DC relaunch is here, and they’re going same-day digital and stabbing your favorite crusty old comic book store in the heart with a solid gold stake.

The DC relaunch is here.

Beyonce’s VMAS Pregnancy Reveal Breaks Twitter Records.

Beyonce revealed that she was pregnant Sunday night during MTV’s Celebrity Musicians Masturbating Other Celebrity Musicians Extravaganza.
