X-men questions..........................................?

in the X-men comics, was there 2 characters called Bishop and Marrow, if so what role did they play and what were Bishop's powers? And in the Wolverine Movie what was the mutant Bradley's power, i think that's his name(the one that was at the carnival with the light bulbs), and is Agent Zero a mutant, if so what were his powers?

yes bishop and marrow were x-men around the same time (early 90s) bishop can absorb energy and re-direct it ex: (cyclops blasts bishop , bishops absorbs it and fires it back.) marrow had bone spikes on her body and could use them as knives or armor she can also heal quick like wolverine . marrow was a morlock and didnt like humans bc of their hatred of mutants , bishop was from the future and came to warn the x-men about his future in which all mutants are locked away in concentration camps or dead , so he is there to prevent that from happening by taking out the mutant responsible (it was originally stopping a assassin from killing a senator, to onslaught , and now its a kid who supposedly grows up to wipe out 6 million humans in 6 seconds)

bradley manipulated energy , he turned on the lights with his power , i dont think he could do somthing cool like blasts or anythin cuz he would have lasted longer against sabretooth.

agent zero is originally the character maverick. maverick could heal quick , not like wolverine but quicker than humans and energy blasts, but he mostly used guns, he became agent zero i believe weapon x experimented on him and changed his powers to a healing factor and a death factor, his death factor allowed him to poison his victims through touch but worked better on people with healing factors (wolverine/sabretooth) bc the poison ate away just as quickly as the body healed

i hoped that helped

The former FBI agent author of The Bricklayer presents a follow-up in which rogue ex-agent Steve Vail races against time to track down a Russian intelligence officer who may have been caught trying to identify treasonous Americans. (suspense).

A rundown of weird crimes and comical crooks from across the globe

For as long as there has been civilisation, there has been crime. Fortunately, as civilisation has evolved through the centuries, the weird and wacky ways in which criminals have tried to get something for nothing has not. From getting caught red-handed to failing in the most slapstick of ways, the world has never been fuller of hapless crooks and comedic capers.

It wasn't just a simple case of mistaken identity that lead to one Baltimore man being locked up, as a student was recently given probation for repeatedly ramming his car into another driver's automobile. His reason? He thought that he was federal agent Jack Bauer from hit US TV show '24', and that his victim was a wanted international terrorist on the run. Though there were no TV cameras rolling at the time, sometimes fantasy and fiction can get mixed up in the heat of the crime, which was bad news for another British burglar. Wearing nothing but a thong, presumably to avoid leaving clues, the man almost made off with his haul undetected, if it wasn't for a video he had made of himself committing the crime that, hilariously, he left behind at the scene.

Sometimes it is the most innocuous of objects that can lead to the most bizarre reasons for arrest though, like a chocolate bar. Out for a jog one morning, a South Shields resident was 'attacked' by a Mars Bar as it was hurled at him from a passing car. Fortunately his assailant was brought to justice, but they were not the only person to be arrested for using food as a weapon. A Florida woman was brought to court accused of beating a man with a large piece of raw meat. Police say the 53-year-old women was trying to teach the man a lesson by repeatedly slapping him over the head with the steak, after he said he wanted a roll instead of a slice of bread.

Despite ingenuity, some criminals just get unlucky, like the Swedish crooks who stole dozens of left-footed shoes from a boutique in Stockholm. Baffled by the seemingly pointless crime, it wasn't until clues lead the police to look as far as Denmark, where shops traditionally display the right-footed shoe, that the master plan was foiled. Speaking of bad luck, when thieves stole a van in Wuppertal, Germany, they probably didn't bargain on it having an unseen passenger in the backseat; Caesar five-year-old circus lion.

Boozy blonde Jennifer Bruce from Aberdeen may regret slipping off the wagon as, after drinking a 'ridiculous amount of alcohol' she succumbed to a dare and went on a naked streak through her local supermarket. From wishing they'd kept their clothes on to wishing they'd simply left them well alone, one man in Kuala Lumpar was chased down the street and attacked by a crowd of shop workers after being caught stealing just one pair of mens jeans .

Berlin

Berlin, city in northeastern Germany, capital of a united Germany from 1871 to 1945 and again since 1990. It lies on the flatlands of the North German Plain at the confluence of several rivers and amid many lakes. The city's slight elevation made it a site for human settlement even in prehistoric times. Berlin has a population of about 3,454,200 (1992 estimate) and an area of approximately 889 sq km (343 sq mi).

After World War II (1939-1945) Berlin, badly damaged during the war, was situated within the German Democratic Republic (GDR; also known as East Germany). The city was subsequently partitioned into East Berlin and West Berlin. The divided city not only symbolized the collapse of the German Empire, of which it was the capital, but also became a focus of Cold War tensions between the Communist nations led by the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) and the group of Western nations led by the United States. The Berlin Wall, a barrier separating East and West Berlin built by the East Germans in 1961, blocked free access in both directions until November 1989; during the time it stood, at least 80 people died attempting to cross from East to West Berlin. By the time Germany was unified in October 1990, much of the wall had been torn down. A few small segments remain as memorials.

Economy

Following the division of the city of Berlin in 1949, the economies of the two halves of the city were integrated into the economies of the two newly separated republics of Germany.

The economy of East Berlin was totally integrated with that of East Germany and also benefited from a steady stream of visitors from West Berlin and West Germany. East Berlin was the hub of East Germany's commercial, financial, and transportation systems, and, although it comprised less than one-half of the former unified city, it was also a huge manufacturing center. Among its principal manufactures were steel and rubber goods, electrical and transportation equipment, chemicals, and processed food. The Spree River, which is connected by waterways with the Baltic Sea, widened in East Berlin to form a major inland harbor. An airport at Schönefeld, just south of the city, served both East and West Berlin.

Much of West Berlin's industrial capacity was destroyed in World War II, and its economy suffered again during 1948 and 1949, when the USSR blockaded the area in an attempt to drive out the Western powers. Beginning in the 1950s, however, West Berlin's economy was revitalized with a great deal of assistance from West Germany and from the United States, which provided support under the European Recovery Program (Marshall Plan). The city soon became an important manufacturing center, producing electrical and electronic equipment and substantial quantities of machinery, metal, textiles, clothing, chemicals, printed materials, and processed food. The city also developed as a center for international finance, for research and science, and for the important West German film industry. It was linked to West Germany by highways, canal systems, a railroad, and airplane services, which used Tegel, Tempelhof, and Gatow airports in West Berlin and Schönefeld airport in nearby East Germany.

With the destruction of the Berlin Wall in 1989 the two halves of the city were once again physically integrated. Their economic integration became official in July 1990. East Berlin underwent a greater economic upheaval, with many formerly state-owned businesses succumbing to privatization.

While reunification (Die Wende, or “the change”) allowed many families and friends long separated by the Berlin Wall to reunite, it also brought with it numerous economic and social problems. Berlin has been forced to deal with housing shortages, strikes and demonstrations, unemployment, and increases in crime and right-wing violence against foreigners. Unification costs in Germany have led to increased taxes, reduced government subsidies, and cuts in social services.

Points of Interest

The imposing Brandenburg Gate (1788-1791), inspired by the Propylaea of the Acropolis in Athens, Greece, is located at the western end of Unter den Linden, a famous boulevard in Berlin that extends east to Museum Island, in the Spree River; the Brandenburg Gate was closed to free access until December 1989. On or near the boulevard are the classical-style State Opera House (1743); the State Library (1774-1780); the baroque Arsenal building (1695-1706; designed by Andreas Schlüter), now housing a historical museum; Saint Hedwig's Cathedral (1747-1773); the Gothic Church of Saint Nicholas (late 14th-early 15th century); the French Cathedral of the Platz der Akademie area, the heart of the French quarter in the 17th century; and the University of Berlin (1810), whose faculty has included 27 Nobel Prize winners and philosopher G. W. F. Hegel. Well-known streets crossing Unter den Linden are the Friedrichstrasse and the Wilhelmstrasse, on which once stood the Reichschancery of Adolf Hitler.

Berlin's most famous boulevard is the Kurfürstendamm, which is lined with fashionable hotels, restaurants, shops, and movie theaters. At the boulevard's eastern end is a ruined tower, all that remains of the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church (1891-1895; destroyed during World War II), maintained as a reminder of the destructiveness of war. Adjacent to the ruins are a polygonal church and its separate campanile (1959-1961). Branching from the Kurfürstendamm is the Tauentzienstrasse, a major shopping street and the site of the Europa Center (1963-1965): a 22-story complex of restaurants, shops, offices, cinemas, a planetarium, and an ice-skating rink. To the northeast is the Tiergarten park, largest of Berlin's nearly 50 parks, which extends about 3 km (about 2 mi) to the Brandenburg Gate. In the Tiergarten are the large, modern Congress Hall (1957); the Reichstag building (1884-1894), once the seat of the German parliament, which was gutted by fire in 1933 and again damaged at the end of World War II, but which has since been largely restored; the Berlin Zoological Garden, the largest and one of the oldest in the world; and an aquarium. Near the Tiergarten is the Kulturform complex, including the Museum of Applied Arts; the Bauhaus Archives and Museum, commemorating the Bauhaus school of architecture and design (1919-1933); the Musical Instrument Museum; the National Library; the New National Gallery (1968), designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, housing a collection of 20th-century art; and the striking Philharmonie Concert Hall (1963), an asymmetrical structure that serves as the home of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra.

Southeast of the Tiergarten is Oranienburger Strasse and environs, the heart of prewar Berlin's Jewish district. Revitalization of the area has included restoration of the New Synagogue (1866), which was badly damaged on Kristallnacht (see Holocaust) and by bombing. The synagogue is now a center for the study and preservation of Jewish culture. The area is also known for its art galleries, cafés, bars, and artists' studios. Berlin's oldest Jewish cemetery is nearby.

Museum Island, in eastern Berlin, is the site of the Pergamon Museum (1930), with a fine collection of Greco-Roman and Asian art; the Bode Museum, with displays of ancient Egyptian and Byzantine art; and the National Gallery (1866-1876), with exhibitions of 19th-century painting.

On the eastern bank of the Spree is Alexanderplatz, a large square with restaurants and stores; nearby are the Television Tower (365 m/1197 ft) and Red Town Hall. A statue facing the eastern entrance to the town hall commemorates the Trummerfrauen (Rubble Women), thousands of women of all ages who cleared up vast quantities of rubble left in Berlin after World War II.

Forests and farmland cover nearly one-third of Berlin. In the southwestern part of the city is the vast Grunewald forest, which contains a great deal of woodland and the large Wannsee, formed by the Havel River, as well as a Renaissance-style hunting lodge (principally mid-16th century, with 18th-century additions), the large Olympic Stadium (built for the 1936 Olympic Games), and a broadcasting tower (1924-1926) measuring 138 m (453 ft) high. Other points of interest include Charlottenburg Palace (begun 1695), which houses the Museum of Decorative Arts, and the neoclassical Humboldt.

In the Dahlem district of western Berlin, near the Grunewald, are a group of famous institutions, which include the Painting Gallery, with displays of European painting from the 13th to the 16th century; the Ethnological Museum; the Sculpture Gallery; museums of Indian, Islamic, and East Asian art; and the German Folklore Museum. North of the Dahlem district is the Bridge Museum, displaying 20th-century German Expressionist art by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Karl Schmidt-Rottluff, and others. Other museums in the city include a museum of Greek and Roman antiquities; the Bröhan Museum, with Art Deco and Jugendstil collections displayed in period settings; and the Egyptian Museum, which contains a world-famous bust of Nefertiti, queen of Egypt in the 14th century BC.

Besides the University of Berlin, institutions of higher education include the Bruno Leuschner College of Economics (1950); the Hanns Eisler College of Music (1950); the Free University of Berlin (1948), founded mainly by professors and students dissatisfied with conditions at the University of Berlin in East Berlin; and the Technical University of Berlin (1879). Additional cultural facilities include museums of Berlin and German history, the Comic Opera, and the Theater am Schiffbauerdamm, home of the Berliner Ensemble, noted for productions of plays by German dramatist Bertolt Brecht, its founder. Also located in Berlin are the German Film and Television Academy (1966) and the College of the Arts (1975). Additional performing-arts facilities include the German Opera and the Hebbel Theater. The city is the site of an annual film festival and numerous other festivals. Berlin hosts the annual Grüne Woche, Germany's largest agricultural fair.

In Berlin's northern suburb of Sachsenhausen is the site of one of the first concentration camps in Germany, built in 1936; the site is now a memorial. After the war Soviet secret police used the camp to house war criminals, former Nazis and military officers, and opponents of the occupying regime. The camp was closed in March 1950. In 1992 arsonists set fire to the camp museum during a wave of attacks against foreign asylum-seekers.

Berlin has an efficient integrated system of subways, elevated train lines, buses (including all-night service), and trams.

European Metropolis

In 1871 Berlin became the capital of the unified German Empire. During the following decades the city grew into a major industrial center, specializing in machinery, electrical goods, and textiles. Culturally, Berlin won worldwide fame for its excellent theaters, concerts, and exhibitions; commercially, it benefited from a wide network of railroads converging at the city. Extensive construction of factories and commercial buildings attracted thousands of workers, most of whom were housed in large tracts of shoddy tenements.

After World War I (1914-1918) Berlin's adjacent communities were incorporated into the city, increasing its population to 3,850,000. Berlin suffered economic setbacks during the troubled Weimar Republic (1919-1933), but the wealth of its theatrical, musical, and other cultural offerings remained unrivaled.

During the restrictive Nazi years (see National Socialism), Berlin's cultural life lost much of its prestige. An ambitious building program, by which German dictator Adolf Hitler aimed to make the city the world's foremost capital, was architecturally uninspired and never completed. In 1936 the city was host to the Olympic Games. During World War II large parts of Berlin were destroyed by air raids and, toward the end of the war, by artillery fire and street fighting. By 1945, about 50,000 prewar buildings had been destroyed, many were in ruins, and the city contained some 75 million cu m (101,250,000 cu yd) of rubble. Berlin's population was 2,800,000, down from its prewar 4,400,000.

National Capital

When Germany reunified in October 1990, a reunited Berlin once again became the national capital. The seat of the federal government was scheduled to shift from Bonn to Berlin by the year 2000, although the Bundesrat (federal council) and eight federal ministries will remain in Bonn. Renovation of the Reichstag building is under way to accommodate the Bundestag (lower house of parliament); the surrounding area will house federal government offices. South of the Reichstag, Potsdamerplatz is scheduled for major development, including a $2-billion office complex to open in 1998. In September 1994 French, British, and U.S. troops formally left Berlin. Following the departure of Russian troops the month before, the event marked the end of an occupation that had lasted for nearly 50 years.

After the unification of Germany in 1990, subsidies once provided by the German government ended, forcing the Berlin government to make extensive cuts in its budget in the mid-1990s. Public service jobs were trimmed, and costs for social services increased. Angry postal and construction workers went on strike, and children and teachers protested the cuts in education and services. In addition, expenditures by the government increased as it helped rebuild East Berlin to bring it up to the standards of West Berlin

If you could buy the individual comic book issues cheaper than a graphic novel, would you?

It seems like a lot of comics come out in individual issues and then get collected up into a trade paperback/graphic novel at around the same price. Which would you buy if the sum of the individual issues were significantly less than the cost of the collection? Why?

i would go with the indiv. issues

graphic novels are a sham. they're just products at a higher price point. A Lexus with a Toyota Camry engine.

Comic Book Superheroes Unmasked

$16.96

Taking the evolution of the comic book as its subject, this History Channel documentary stands out by merit of its comprehensive scope and insight. Beginning with the early days of 1930s vigilantes and the patriotic characters of the 1940s, the program reveals the current complexity and range found in the pages of contemporary graphic novels, and explores the ways that cultural climates and popular attitudes are reflected in comic books. All the heavyweights weigh in, including Neil Gaiman (THE SANDMAN), Frank Miller (THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS), Stan Lee (SPIDER-MAN, THE SILVER SURFER), Kevin Smith (CHASING AMY), Will Eisner (THE SPIRIT), and others. Keith David, who voiced Spawn from the TV show, narrates the program, which is presented by Peta Wilson (LA FEMME NIKITA). In addition to the star-studded cast, however, the documentary has a lot to offer fans and neophytes alike, with analyses of the role of collecting in the comic book world, and the creation of such seminal entities as DC Comics and Marvel as well as characters like Dark Horse, the Incredible Hulk, and Wonder Women. Contextualizing the innovations and progress of the art form, this documentary is not just an important exploration of the graphic arts, but a fascinating look back at the shifting cultural concerns of a nation.

Little does he know that Kazuki's true purpose in life is to take over the world using the comics! The comic spoofs never stop, and classics such as GUNDAM and EVANGELION are fair game! In these episodes, the festival arrives, and Taishi is running the show (while Kazuki does all the hard work!). Even though he has a lot to do, Kazuki is still fixated on COMIC PARTY. He's not sure which path to choose, but he'll have to decide quickly, with only one week left until the big convention.

In addition to the star-studded cast, however, the documentary has a lot to offer fans and neophytes alike, with analyses of the role of collecting in the comic book world, and the creation of such seminal entities as DC Comics and Marvel as well as characters like Dark Horse, the Incredible Hulk, and Wonder Women. Contextualizing the innovations and progress of the art form, this documentary is not just an important exploration of the graphic arts, but a fascinating look back at the shifting cultural concerns of a nation.

When the murder of a popular comic book artist bears eerie resemblance to an illustrated death he had recently inked, life begins to imitate art as his son transforms into his father's superhero protagonist and takes to the street seeking vengeance in a martial arts extravaganza starring kung-fu prodigy Sik Siu Loong. Ying was on top of the world when his tragic death suddenly cut short his prolific career. Now his son Tian-xing has vowed to finish his father's masterwork and deliver justice to the elusive killer. As Tian-xing's transformation into the protagonist of his father's comic book brings out a newfound sense of bravery in the determined avenger, the enraged son takes to the street to do battle with both the notorious Scorpion gang and their nefarious leader Black Devil. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

What does Michael Shepherd's poem mean?

We are like salmon, swimming back upstream;
Leaping against waterfalls that thwart,
Cut and bruised; but strong; our only dream
Return to source; no thought save source of thought;
And in that fight, our iron age turns to bronze,
And we to heroes, in a war of soul,
As nature seeks the nature it had once;
Though wholly lost, remembering the whole.
We silver salmon, sparkling as the sun
Shines on our fierce and loving enterprise:
To rear our children where the world is one;
The source remembered, nature's greatest prize.
The golden age is ageless in its gleam
And we, like salmon, swimming back upstream.

The stream is a metaphor for life, and the progression of ages a sort of literary vehicle, if not metaphor, then allegory, for our "progress" toward our goal, which is to return to our origin.

The Golden Age Of The Vintage Jukebox

In today's world dominated by MP3 players and other digital media, it is highly unlikely that the vintage jukebox can survive. Yet against all odds, this traditional music machine is still here. If you look around you can find them in bars and cafes, even in peoples homes.

Jukeboxes are semi automated coin-operated music playing devices. The songs played by them are usually self- contained. Traditionally they are designed with rounded tops and the front and sides decked with colored flashing lighting. Their buttons are lettered and numbered such that different combinations stand for a particular song from a particular record. The designs progressed from the1930s austere wood boxes to the 1940s models which had brightly lit color animation and plastic displays like the Rudolf Wurlitzer 850 Peacock jukebox. However the United States government banned the manufacture of metal and plastic jukeboxes once it entered the Second World War in order to increase the amount of metal ad plastic that went into the war effort. This had an important effect on their design. An example is the 1943 Wurlitzer 950 which used wooden coin slides to reduce metal consumption. Instead of plastic, it also had glass lit panels.

After the Second World War however, metal and plastic for their construction was once again back in abundance which prompted a lot of growth in their making. The Bubber jukebox was made during this era and presents perhaps the best design of all time. Since most of them lived on into the 1950s, they have always been synonymous with the fifties pop culture despite the fact that they originated in the 1940s. The jukebox designs after the 40s increasingly became three-dimensional and more hi-tech in appearance. This was a complete shift from the "standard" box fashions like the renaissance, ancient Grecian and gothic architecture themes that had dominated the 40s jukeboxes.

The 1940s jukeboxes are referred to as Golden Age jukeboxes due to the yellow colored Catlin plastic that was used while the 1950s models are the Silver Age due to their chromium-plate material used in design. The explosion of the popularity of drive in restaurants caused a major increase in the use of them as restaurant owners tried to attract as many customers as possible using the jukeboxes.

Although other kinds of music entertainment media have replaced diner jukeboxes today, both old and young people still enjoy and are attracted to their garish styling wherever there is one to be found. The nostalgia for the jukebox music machine may never end even though this mass media device may be slowly disappearing.

Should I frame this print? ?

It's a limited edition Shepard Fairey "Yes, We Did It - Victory" Obama print, edition xxxx/5000. I want to keep it for 30+ years until i'm married and have kids. Anyway, would you recommend professional framing, or should I frame it myself? How much do you think professional would cost? The dimensions are 24" x36" or so and it's printed on thick French paper.

Thanks for looking!

definitely frame it if you plan on keeping it around for awhile. i'm looking into getting a print framed as a birthday present for a friend and i'm finding that often the frame is much more costly than the print. call around to some framing shops, they should be able to give you a rough estimate as to the cost. glass isn't cheap and consider if you want matting or not. good luck

Giclee Canvas Print

Want to give a splendid effect to your photos in prints? Then giclee canvas print is the best option. These canvas prints are effective marketing tools for advertising the products or services of a company to a wider audience. Giclee (pronounced Gee’clay) is the most popular inkjet printing method used by various digital printing companies in the United Kingdom to print fine art reproductions on canvas. The name giclee has been derived from the French word ‘gicler,’ meaning ‘spray’ or ‘squirt.’ This term was originally coined in 1900 by the famous printmaker, James Duganne. Giclee printing process involves the spraying of more than four million droplets of ink per second.

Today, giclee canvas printing companies make use of the hottest technology to print high resolution images featuring everything from renaissance to modern art prints. For giclee printing, high quality, light resistant inks are utilized. Photographic images, two-dimensional artwork or computer generated artwork can be made into giclee canvas art prints.

Using software techniques, printmakers improve the color, tone, size and resolution of the image to make the prints more visible, retaining the look of the original masterpiece. To prevent scratching of the print surface and to protect it from sunlight, printing companies make use of UV varnish. A framed giclee print retains the details of the original image for years. Ready to hang prints in limited edition are also available in the market.

Before printing, first a scan is made, which can be used to make as many prints as required in fast turnaround time – one of the advantages of giclee printing. These canvas prints are affordable and hence very popular.

Giclee canvas prints in various dimensions, styles and shapes are used to elegantly decorate your contemporary home and office. These are also some of the best gift options for all occasions.
