Sound & Vision X Shepard Fairey X London
The @Obeygiant head honcho is back with a Bowie-inspired show at Stolen Space Gallery in London's Truman Brewery 19 Oct.
The Sound and Vision art show includes mixed media works on canvas weaving my social commentary with inspiration from a range of musicians, including the Sex Pistols, David Bowie, Roxy Music, Gang of Four, the Clash, the Circle Jerks, Kraftwerk, Public Enemy, Neil Young, and Metallica. Sound and Vision will also include an installation of a record store environment, with customized vintage turntables and a portion of my own record collection for public listening. The record store space will also showcase over 80 12″x12″ images I’ve created as tributes to the 12″ LP sleeve. A comprehensive variety of other works will be featured, including screen prints on wood, metal, and paper; rubylith cuts; and retired stencils.

Nemo: Heart Of Ice Cover
@GoshComics have got the first look at the League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen spin-off from Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill. Enjoyed the series so far, glad they're moving it on with some of the other peripheral characters. Due Feb 2013
It’s 1925, fifteen long years since Janni Dakkar first tried to escape the legacy of her science-pirate father, only to eventually take on his mantle and accept her destiny as the new Nemo; the next captain of the legendary Nautilus. A thirty year-old Pirate Jenny, tired of punishing the world with an unending spree of plunder and destruction, is resolved to finally step from her forebear’s lengthy shadow by attempting something at which he’d conspicuously failed, namely the exploration of Antarctica. In 1895 her father had returned from that ice-crusted continent without his reason or his crewmen, all of whom appeared to have mysteriously perished or to otherwise have disappeared. Now Captain Nemo’s daughter and successor plans to take her feared and celebrated black submersible back to the world’s South Pole in an attempt to lay her sire’s intimidating ghost forever.

Trailer Park: Man of Steel
Teaser up for Zack Snyder's Superman three-boot. Check it out at Apple for the Russell Crowe/Jor-el version, Yahoo for the Kevin Costner/Pa Kent edition.
Looks restrianed and stylish. Let's hope Zack Snyder keeps his usual OTT theatrics under control all the way through.

Re-Enter Sandman
Neil Gaiman (aka @neilhimself) sent this over to Comic Con to announce the return of Sandman later in the year. Really enjoyed reading (and re-reading) the series the first time around (can't believe it's the 25th anniversary though...). Here's the first new Sandman art from JH Williams III (who did a great job on Alan Moore's trippy Promethea series)

More Linklater Sun?
Ethan Hawke is saying that there's a third part to the Before Sunrise/Before Sunset films on the way. Can they follow up what was already a risky sequel without blowing it? And what would they call it - Before Sundown? Would like to see more of those two, have to say. On a side note, heard good things about Julie Delpy's Two Days In New York, the sequel to her v enjoyable Two Days In Paris
