THE HAMMER KID #0, coming this February by writer Kevin Grevioux and artist Jack Lawrence, tells the story of a 12-year old named Kevin Erikson, who accidentally inherits the power of Thor's hammer and must now use it to save Asgard and Earth from the evil schemes of the Trickster, Loki! How will a mortal boy from Minnesota go from juggling algebra and bullies to the awesome responsibility of wielding the hammer of Thor? Grevioux is perhaps best known as the creator/associate producer and original screenwriter behind the popular UNDERWORLD film and franchise - as well as playing the role of Raze in the first film. He has also appeared in a variety of comic book themed acting roles, including MEN IN BLACK II, STEEL, BATMAN FOREVER, THE MASK, and recently as the voice of Solomon Grundy in The WB's animated series, THE BATMAN! Now having jumped from screen to print with two all-new comic book imprints, Astounding Studios and DarkStorm Studios, Grevioux says making the move to Alias Comics wasn't a hard decision to make. "Alias is a company that has a little something for everyone: it's not just superheroes, it's also action, horror, all-ages, spiritual and just all-around fun that really stokes the imagination. They have a very eclectic taste and style to their books and I just wanted to be part of that," said Grevioux.

Can a teenage boy grow up fast enough to become the hero both Earth and Asgard need? The adventure of a lifetime begins here, illustrated by fan favorite Jack 'Lions, Tigers and Bears' Lawrence! -- 24-pages, full-color one shot -- $3.50 Future books coming from Astounding Studios include VALKYRIES, GUARDIAN HEROES, VINDICATORS and more! Grevioux is also preparing titles such as DARKSTORM, LEGIONS, ALIUS REX, and THE PALE HORSEMEN for his DarkStorm Studios imprint - all to be published under Alias Comics in 2006! "Coming from the film industry, I like high-concept stories - and I want to try and bring that sensibility to my comic book work," said Grevioux. "I wanted to throw my hat into the ring and try to create cool and interesting stories like the ones I watched when I was growing up." THE HAMMER KID #0 (DEC052754) is a full-color 24-page one-shot shipping this February from Astounding Studios and Alias Comics for only $3.50!

SCHMID .c The Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) - Motorcycles and skiers, baseball players and lovers, a 40-stamp series featuring America's biggest, tallest and deepest, from sea cliffs to bison to waterfalls and lakes. They're all commemoratives planned for next year by the U.S. Postal Service. Comic book superheroes brighten one set of stamps. Others feature Benjamin Franklin, explorer Samuel de Champlain, Florida wetlands and snowflakes. ``Our 2006 program commemorates a wide range of diverse American icons with something that will appeal to everyone,'' Postmaster General John E. Potter said in announcing the planned designs. With the price of a first class stamp climbing to 39 cents on Jan. 8, most of the new issues will carry that rate. The first to be released won't have a price on it, since it had to be printed in advance to be ready for distribution in early January. That's the latest Love stamp: Entitled True Blue this year, it depicts two birds on a branch looking devotedly at each other with the space between them forming a heart. A revised version with the 39-cent price will be issued in March. Love, of course, often leads to marriage and the post office is prepared. A white dove is featured on a set of wedding stamps in one- and two-ounce rates designed for sending wedding invitations and reply envelopes. They are due in March. And, not yet done with matters of the heart, in April there will be a set of romance stamps featuring Disney characters such as Mickey and Minnie and Lady and the Tramp. On Jan. 11, a stamp featuring a downhill skier will commemorate the Olympic Winter Games in Turin, Italy. It's the first of several sporting stamps planned for the year. Boxer Sugar Ray Robinson will be featured on a stamp in April, and during the summer there will be a set recalling baseball sluggers Roy Campanella, Hank Greenberg, Mickey Mantle and Mel Ott. At the end of January, Hattie McDaniel, who won the 1939 Academy Award as best supporting actress for her role in ``Gone with the Wind,'' will be honored in the Black Heritage series. Maintaining the entertainment theme, the post office's annual Legends of Hollywood stamp, scheduled for June, will feature Judy Garland, the 1940 Academy Award winner for her performances in ``Babes in Arms'' and ``The Wizard of Oz.'' Also entertaining is a January set of stamps featuring favorite children's book animals such as The Very Hungry Caterpillar, Curious George and Fox in Socks. And Pulitzer Prize winning author Katherine Anne Porter will be memorialized in the post office's Literary Arts stamp series. Four stamps honoring Benjamin Franklin will be released in Philadelphia in April, part of marking the 300th anniversary of the birth of the great scientist, statesman, writer and the nation's first postmaster general. Looking back even farther in history, the U.S. Postal Service and Canada Post will issue joint stamps in May recalling the 1606 voyage of explorer Samuel de Champlain. More recent history is noted in a set of stamps, also planned for May, featuring American diplomats Hiram Bingham IV, Frances E. Willis, Robert D. Murphy, Clifton R. Wharton Sr., Charles E. Bohlen and Philip C. Habib. A set of 40 stamps called Wonders of America: Land of Superlatives, will be released in the spring featuring such sights as the nation's deepest lake (Crater Lake), tallest man- made monument (Gateway Arch) and largest land animal (American Bison). The Nature of America series for 2006 will feature southern Florida wetlands with a set of 21 stamps showing the region's plants and animals. Moving from the wonders of nature to the wonders of imagination, the post office will release a set of 20 stamps recalling DC Comic Books superheroes including Superman, Wonder Woman, Plastic Man, Batman, Green Arrow and many more. Back down to earth, the annual motorcycle rally in Sturgis, S.D. in August will be the location for release of a set of stamps commemorating the role of motorcycles in American culture. The popular hogs of Harley-Davidson are included, of course, as well as the 1918 Cleveland and 1940 Indian cycles. An Amber Alert stamp will be issued in May to note the program that draws attention to missing children. The World Philatelic Exposition, a giant meeting of stamp collectors, comes to the United States only once every 10 years and it will be held in Washington May 27-June 3. The post office is responding with a souvenir sheet reissuing a set of stamps from 1923. While most commemoratives carry the current first- class rate, these are pricey. A $1 stamp shows the Lincoln Memorial, a $2 issue depicts the Capitol and a $5 stamp features the Capitol Dome. The American Treasures entry for 2006, meanwhile, features the beauty of 10 quilts made by the African American women of Gee's Bend, Ala. Finishing the year with its usual holiday offerings, the contemporary stamps will feature photos of snowflakes while the traditional Madonna depicts a painting done around 1765 by Ignacio Chacon in Peru. The original painting now hangs in the Denver Art Museum.

Zoom Suit will make stops at the Gem City Film Festival, the Golden Star Shorts Fest, the Sundays in the City March Movie Marathon, the Delray Beach Film Festival, the Omaha Film Festival and then finally the Fort Myers Beach Film Festival. The Inaugural Gem City Film Festival occurs in Palatka, Florida with Zoom Suit airing on February 18 during Indie Film Day. Proceeds from the festival will benefit the Larimer Arts Center, Palatka's historic former public library building. The building was constructed 75 years ago. The First Annual Golden Star Shorts Fest premiers February 24-26 at The Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood, California smack in the middle of the Winter awards season. The festival is committed to generating exposure for short movies, providing film makers with access to industry professionals, distribution partners and audiences worldwide. This year marks the second Sundays in the City March Movie Madness Marathon. The event takes place over the course of five Sundays in March and is held at the Monster Gallery in the Park Slope area of Brooklyn, New York. Last years' series attracted over 1000 people for the four day event including celebrities Wayne Knight (Newman from Seinfeld) and Vinny Vella of the Sopranos. March 8-12 marks the first-ever Delray Beach Film Festival and filmmakers Roger Corman and Julie Corman will be the recipients of Lifetime Achievement Awards during the event at venues in and around historic downtown Delray Beach, Florida. The first Omaha Film Festival takes place in Omaha, Nebraska on March 23-26. Screenings will take place at the Joslyn Art Museum, Blue Barn Theatre and the Hilton Garden Inn with Zoom Suit appearing in the Animated Short Film category. Zoom Suit will be featured during the "Shorts Program" at the sixth annual Ft. Myers Beach Film Festival in Ft. Myers Beach, Florida on April 27- 30. "The amount of fests that have accepted Zoom Suit is staggering," said Taddeo. "Usually a successful run for a short indie film is being accepted into five or six fests. Zoom Suit has been accepted into over 50 now. It's amazing what our little superhero Cinderella story has accomplished." The award-winning animated short Zoom Suit, created by John Taddeo, can be seen online at www.superverse.com. The Zoom Suit comic book will be solicited under Superverse in the February edition of Previews for items shipping in April 2006 on page 313. It can be ordered using product code: FEB063259. +++++ ATOMIK MIKE DUBBED A HOT ITEM BY WIZARD Across The Pond Studios' CGC Exclusive Variant Cover Featured in Industry's Premiere Magazine January 27, 2006, Port St. Lucie, FL - Across the Pond Studios and CGC have teamed up to create an exclusive variant edition of ATP's February shipping title, Atomik Mike #1 and Wizard magazine has taken notice.

Atomik Mike is written by Stephan Nilson and features art by Israel Cruz. In the story, Mike had everything; a fast ship, a great girlfriend and even a cool nickname. The only thing Mike was missing was his human body. Transformed into a monkey by an arch-rival, Captain Tariq, Mike must find a way to maintain his presence as the fastest cargo hauler and space jockey. Aided by his loyal crew of misplaced humans, aliens and droids they continue to search for a means to reverse Mike's condition while still turning a profit.

That's right, superstar David Finch is penciling a Spider-Man story in the pages of Spider-Man Unlimited #14. Writer C.B. Cebulski has been looking for a chance to work with Finch for years, going back to his days as a Marvel editor, and now he need wait no longer. "David and I kinda came up together at Marvel as I started editing him on one of his initial X-Men Unlimited stories," recounts Cebulski. "From there we moved over to The Call, then onto Ultimate X-Men. We've become great friends over the years and have always wanted to work together on a more creative level." "When Marvel read my Spider-Man Unlimited script, someone mentioned it would be the perfect story for Finch to tackle," says Cebulski. "The stars must have been in alignment as it just so happened David had a hole in his schedule between New Avengers and Moon Knight that needed filling, and I'm honored he accepted the assignment. As you can tell from the pencils, I believe he had a blast drawing it!" Cebulski made sure to jam-pack the story for Finch as not only does the Black Cat guest-star, but Dr. Doom makes an appearance after Spider-Man breaks into...Doctor Doom's embassy? Before David Finch blows everybody away with his revamp of Moon Knight coming this April, you cannot miss his amazing take on Spider-Man in Spider-Man Unlimited #14.

The team of Ten Terrific writer Robert Kirkman and artist Sean Phillips have received nothing short of glowing reviews for their offbeat and bloody take on a world where nearly all of humanity has been wiped out by infected Marvel zombies. "Marvel Zombies scores a definite win... just pick it up and enjoy the carnage," says Jason Schachat of FanboyPlanet.com. "A fun spin around the graveyard in mighty Marvel fashion," says Troy Brownfield of Newsarama.com. The runaway success of Marvel Zombies has really charged Kirkman, who has also recently taken over writing duties for Ultimate X-Men, where it appears the return of Ultimate Phoenix might not be too far off. "I couldn't be more thrilled to hear about the success from this series," says writer Robert Kirkman. "I think one thing to take note of with this book is that Marvel has gone above and beyond to allow me to do WHATEVER I WANT with this series. I'm actually pretty amazed with how far they've let me and artist Sean Phillips go and the risks they've taken in doing so. The amount of creative freedom I've been given with this project has only been exactly the same as what I've been given on my creator- owned books. I'd just like to thank Marvel for letting us run wild and thank the readers for checking out this insane experiment." If you thought the first issue was gory, just wait until the Silver Surfer takes on the very undead former heroes in Marvel Zombies #3, on sale February 8th. It's sure to have you screaming, "Make mine brains!"
