Marvel Continues Teasing Possible ‘ULTIMATE’ Crossover In New ‘SPIDER-MEN’ Promo. 616-U?
Marvel continues to tease the tip when it comes to some sort of crossover involving both Peter Parker and the Spider-Man of their Ultimate universe. I can’t recall a time when they’ve riffed on this sort of interaction between the two universes, but if they’re going to do it they might as well do it with their best character. Yeah, that’s right. Miles Morales.

OH MY GOD ‘HARRY POTTER’ EBOOKS FINALLY AVAILABLE AT POTTERMORE
Oh sweet butterballs, this is what I’ve been dreaming of for such a long time. More than anything, I’ve been wanting to rebuy all those Harry Potter tomes I finished so many moons ago in eBook form. I need to comb through the books for the moment where J.K. Rowling finally lost her mind and began her march towards the epilogue.
Rumor: NEXT PLAYSTATION CALLED ‘ORBIS’, DETAILS Here.
Oh shit! Kotaku has blown the roof off of the next PlayStation with a deluge of details and purported facts. Consider how this same sort of thing happened last year with their Modern Warfare 3 expose, I’m going to go ahead and say that all this stuff is going to be legit.
US Military Wants To HACK Foreign Game Consoles, Steal User Information. Dastardly ++
The Department of the Navy must have been watching some Dateline. Their latest and greatest way to spend tax payer money is to employ a company to boat a shitload of used gaming consoles overseas, and then till those consoles for user information. Have to get those terrorists’ information from them video game killer-builder machines.
Damien Hirst Live Video Feed – Coming Soon to OL
British artist Damien Hirst, arguably the richest artist on earth, has implemented a streaming video feed into his studio site, capturing the “magic” of art being created. Wouldn’t it be NEAT if we implemented something similar here at OL? Check it out, after the jump.
COMICS TIME THIS WEEK: Watch The Spaceman Choke, You Assholes.
Do you know how many comic books I read last week? One. I read the newest issue of Prophet and that was that. It was a gloriously hypnotic trek through a devastated post-apocalyptic Hemingway novel, and after that I shut my brain down for the week. I’ve been trying to slice the fatty material out of my comic diet. Much like my life I’m sure I’ll continue to binge, but the ideal is to strip down the pull-list into things I want to read. Not things I want to read, feel implored to read, and have a passing interest in at the cost of my wallet.
With that in mind, this is Comics We’re Buying This Fine Week. The column where we sit cross-legged in a circle, pantless of course, and share what we’re digging on in the funny book universe on a given Wednesday. I’ll go first. You follow me into the closet and count to 20. It’s going to be awesome.
Not sure what is coming out? Hit up ComicList.
Paul Thomas Anderson’s ‘THE MASTER’ Gets OFFICIAL October Release Date
I thought this year’s movie releases were out of control, and then this happened. Paul Thomas Anderson’s The Master has a release date. I wasn’t expecting anything out of this flick during this calendar year, and that was only during the times when I actually believed it would ever see the light of day.
Prometheus WonderCon Exclusive Trailer. The sound I just made wasn’t even human.
Do you know how excited I am for this movie? I’ve been waiting since 1979 — and I wasn’t even fucking born yet. I’ll always love Aliens, but the original Alien owns 42% of my heart (Close Encounters of the Third Kind owns the other 58%). To have Ridley Scott direct the prequel (and don’t tell me it’s not — the fucking space jockey is in the trailer) is pretty much every dream I’ve ever had come true. IN IMAX.
Here is the clip that premiered at WonderCon.
Microsoft Blocking PIRATE BAY LINKS In Instant Messages. Damn The Man!
The Pirate Bay is shucking and jiving like a motherfucker lately to stay ahead of the Popo Zao. Them wily sons a bitches are even contemplating taking their servers to the skies with drones. However, next they might need to figure out how to get around Microsoft blocking their links in their instant messages.
AESOP ROCK’S New Album ‘SKELETHON’ Gets Cover Art & Release Date. F**k Yeah.
Aesop Rock is one of my favorite artists of all time. His mind-bending lyrics are complimented by his humor and social commentary, and through this he has had an effect on how I think and even how I spit out the mindcap nonsense around these parts. There’s been a dry as fuck spell from Bazooka Tooth when it comes to solo albums, and that’s pained me in the nuts. Thankfully it’s all coming to an end this July.
