Rich Buckler pens How to Draw Dynamic Comic Books
How-to-draw books are a dime a dozen, but when a real comics guy pens one, they're worth noting.
Bronze Age fans will surely remember Buckler for his capable work for both DC and Marvel. He's a capable artist in the Neal Adams mold. Kids interested in learning the craft probably stand a lot to gain from this book, which features an intro by Stan Lee. It's available for order from Amazon.
Details:
Among the few comics artists to be featured on a US Postage Stamp, Rich Buckler is one of the best-known comic-book artists: He's drawn groundbreaking runs on Fantastic Four, Avengers, Spectacular Spider-Man, X-Men, Teen Titans, and more. Even Stan Lee says, "From the time he drew his first assignments for Marvel Comics, I've been one of his biggest fans. There are few people better qualified to write a book on the subject than Rich Buckler!" Now, after more than thirty-five years in comic books, Buckler reveals the secrets of drawing the heroic figure, the language of storytelling, narrative technique, building a better page, and much more, in focused chapters that build the reader's skills step by step. How to Draw Dynamic Comic Books is the authoritative guide to creating compelling comic books, packed with advice from a master.

DC Comics has a new kid-aimed Captain Marvel comic in the works, along with some other additions to its Johnny DC line.
Mike Kunkel, creator of the critically-acclaimed Herobear and the Kid, is providing Billy Batson and the Magic of Shazam, a kid-friendly reworking of Captain Marvel, the classic superhero saga of child empowerment.
---------------------
Another original "Star Trek" actor will appear on "Heroes."
Having recruited George "Sulu" Takei to portray Hiro's father during Season 1, the Heroes creator has called upon Nichelle Nichols, aka USS Enterprise communications officer Lt. Uhura, to fill a short-term role.
----------------------
And the title for the next Indiana Jones movie is...
-----------------------
Still no Beatles, but John Lennon's music is now available for legal downloading.
Sixteen of Lennon's solo works from EMI Music are available for the first time on iTunes starting today, with the "Lennon Legend" and "Acoustic" collections making their worldwide digital debuts. For a limited period of 30 days, exclusive video content will be included with the albums "John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band," "Sometime in New York City," "Walls and Bridges," "Milk and Honey" and the collections "Anthology" and "Working Class Hero."
-------------------------
Mattel is recalling a whole mess of toys.
...action today involving 18.2 million magnetic toys, about half of them sold in the United States, expanded a recall initiated last year after reports of deaths and injuries to children who ingested magnets that had come loose. Mattel said the recall covered 63 different toys, all sold before January of this year, including 44 Polly Pocket toys, 11 Doggie Day Care toys, 4 Batman toys, a One Piece toy, and two Barbie toys.

Pop Culture Roundup Aug. 13, 2007
The BBC has a number of comics-related TV documentaries in the works. Hopefully we'll see some of these stateside ('specially the Ditko program):
BBC Four is set to explore the wonderful world of comic books in a new three-part series celebrating one the of most powerful achievements of British popular culture – the classic comic strips generations of us have grown up with over the past 70 years.
From the Beano to Bunty, Commando to Viz, The Eagle to 2000AD, British comics have captivated generations from the Thirties to the present day.
Narrated by comedy writer Armando Iannucci (The Thick Of It), Comics Britannia will feature comics legends who wrote and drew the original strips, comics experts and a range of celebrity fans who re-live their favourite comic strip moments and characters.
Bash Street Kids, Dennis the Menace, Roy of The Rovers, Fat Slags, Watchmen, V for Vendetta and many more are brought to life using a special graphics style that allows the audience literally to step inside the comics.
Comics Britannia forms the centrepiece of BBC Four's comics season which also includes a one-off film, In Search Of Steve Ditko, which sees Jonathan Ross go in search of his hero – comic book legend, Steve Ditko.
Other programmes within the season include Adam West's Batman series and Modesty Blaise.
----------------------------
Comics artist Mike Wieringo died yesterday of a sudden heart attack.
Wieringo did work on DC Comics' The Flash and Adventures of Superman titles and may be best known for his lengthy run on Marvel's Fantastic Four with writer Mark Waid.
------------------------------
DC Direct plans a line of action figures inspired by DC's Showcase Presents reprints books. The first batch will include a Carmine Infantino Batgirl, Curt Swan Superman, Joe Kubert Hawkman and Jonah Hex (I guess we don't know which artist's rendition of Jonah we'll be getting).
At this time, yet subject to change, the Superman and Hawkman figures will include extra alternate heads. The Curt Swan Superman will sport heads representing Red Kryptonite transformations (a lion, etc.) and the Kubert Hawkman will feature both his pre and post-“honor wings” looks. The talented Karen Palinko has sculpted all four debut figures.
