Last night during San Diego Comic-Con a few hundred creators, fans and supporters gathered at the Bristol Hotel for the Celebrate the Web event to see and experience the latest and greatest content the world wide web has to offer. Those in attendance also got to be involved in panel discussions, moderated by our good pal Sam Proof, with some of the web’s top creators who offered their insight into making content today for the web, the tools of the trade and some of the pitfalls.
In the interest of full disclosure I need to say now that The Flickcast was a proud sponsor of the event along with our partners at Tube Filter and Blip.tv. However, that didn’t stop me from being very impressed with many of the sci-fi, dramatic and comedy programs who’s footage we saw last night.
Some of the creators at the event who showed footage or trailers from their projects included Shawna Trpcic from Dr. Horrible’s Sing Along Blog, Melanie Merkosky from Continuum, Kelly Parks from Universal Dead, Christopher Preksta and Curt Wootton from The Mercury Men and The Bui Brothers from Pryce.
In addition, creators such as Paula Rhodes and Craig Frank from A Good Night’s Quest, Matt Sloan and Aaron Yonda from Chad Vader, Rudy Jahchan from A Comicbook Orange, Adam Chambers of I Heart Vampires and David Nett and Stephanie Thorpe of Gold: Night of the Zombie King were also in attendance.

Welcome to another edition of The Pull List Comic Reviews! An incredibly solid week as we’ve got three Blackest Night tie-ins, some speedster action and a particularly “horrible” tale, but only one issue each week tops the “list.” Be sure to let us know what you thought of these issues, we’re always interested to hear from you, the readers. As always, WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD.
PULL OF THE WEEK:
Dark Reign: The List – Amazing Spider-Man One-Shot – Marvel Comics – $3.99 US
Writer: Dan Slott
Artist: Adam Kubert
Score: 9.5
Norman Osborn made a list and he’s checking it more than twice as certain thorns in his side have gotten his full attention. Everyone from the X-Men to the Avengers have had to deal with him, and by now you’ve heard of how the Punisher went to pieces over his clash with the H.A.M.M.E.R. Director, so how will Spider-Man do? Hint: Spidey doesn’t win this one.
I’ll start with Dan Slott’s writing in this issue, and simply state that he crushed it. There’s no other way to say it, really. Sure, an argument could be made that Spidey should have done something by now, especially considering his history with Stormin’ Norman. Put that aside, if you ever wanted to see Peter Parker triumph at anything – he’s had a ridiculously long losing streak since “Brand New Day” – then this is the issue for you.
It’s been a few months since artist Adam Kubert penciled some pages, but with that amount of lead-time you knew this issue would be stunning. He failed to disappoint. Crammed with gorgeous visuals, the entire one-shot was a treat, even when the action had decidedly died down for the last act. One look at the very first page is all you need to know in regards to how good the art is.
