Roll out!

Click here for the official NEW Transformers theme from the flick, by Mute Math. (Wait for the page to fully download and then there'll be a little link that says "Download File")
I dig it. I mean, it's not the Lion version from Transformers : The Movie, but it's not bad.
If you're still hungry for more Transformers,
Animated Toast! has 7 different versions of the theme, including the previously mentioned Lion version.

Something evil's watching over you...

So, I saw a sneak preview of TRANSFORMERS last night.
I'm not sure if I want to write any kind of review, but I wanted to at least mention that I've seen it.

And I have opinions.

UPDATE
Speaking of movies, Robert of Ye Olde Comic Blogge has a great new post up about comics and movies and the state of both.
You should read it.

Every night is the last night.

So, I know I'm late, but here's my quick reviews of some of last week's comics.

Flash13
Flash v.4 #13 - Winner of the "Worst comic I've read since the last issue of All Star Batman" award. This issue, as was the case with the 12 issues before it, stars a character DC tells us is "Bart Allen", but who is not Bart Allen by any stretch of the imagination. I have every issue of Impulse and Young Justice, I know what I'm talking about. This issue differs from the previous 12 though, because they kill this character they claim is "Bart". This would have really upset me if the character that died was the Bart Allen we've known for all those years prior to Infinite Crisis (aka "Psshh! Man, fuck Young Justice!" as Mr. Didio calls it).
By amazing coincidence, this happens at the same time that the Justice League of America and the Justice Society of America and the Legion of Super-Heroes of America are over in JLA #10 bringing back Wally West.
I'm more than happy to have Wally back, but that's because he never should have been taken away from us in the first place.

jla10
Justice League of America #10 -

Your first assignment for Clusterfuck 101 : Write an issue of JLA.
Due date : Whenever you get around to it.
Extra credit : Get Michael Turner to create another artistic abomination for the cover.

countdown45
Countdown 45 - With a cover like that you'd think some really awesome stuff happens in this issue.
You'd be wrong.

cap27
Captain America #27 - Who knew Bucky was going to grow up to be such a badass? Godspeed on your mission to kill Tony Stark since the big, bad, scary, super-angry, Green King version of the Hulk couldn't get the job done.
Also, Buck, nice job on nailing Black Widow. All the better if it was while she was involved with Tony.

HULK107
Incredible Hulk #107 - This ish was definitely a better read than the first issue of World War Hulk #1, and I'm really glad to see Marvel show that there would be people on the Hulk's side.

IronMan_19%20copy
Iron Man #19 - I just liked this cover.

SPIDERMAN_FF_3
Spider-Man and the Fantastic Four #3 - I think there were 4 or 5 books with Spider-Man in them last week, and this was the only one you should bother reading. There's really only one thing to complain about with this book, and it's the same complaint I have with Jeff Smith's Shazam, and that's that it's going to be over after only 4 issues.

cv_spirit7_cooke_600
The Spirit #7 - You don't really need me to tell you this is good, do you?
