Stan Lee, Stan Lee, Does Whatever A Spider-Man Can in The Amazing Spider-Man Video Game
May 19th
Activision currently has a release date of June 26th for their upcoming movie tie-in video game, The Amazing Spider-man. However, this isn’t just any movie video game, as it actually works as a direct sequel to the movie…despite coming out a week prior to the July 3rd film premier. The game takes place after Michael Morbius accesses the Oscorp research of Dr. Curt Connors (the Lizard) to create more cross-species experiments. Because of this, Spider-man will be running up against the Rhino, Iguana, and Black Cat. Oh, and there are some pretty gnarly spider-slayers (see the trailer below). The game More >
John Romita Jr.’s World Record Signing for Charity
May 6th
John Romita Jr. is attempting to break his own World Record, the longest personal signing and drawing appearance.
