The Four Color Media Monitor

Because if we're going to try and stop the misuse of our favorite comics and their protagonists by the companies that write and publish them, we've got to see what both the printed and online comics news is doing wrong. This blog focuses on both the good and the bad, the newspaper media and the online websites. Unabashedly. Unapologetically. Scanning the media for what's being done right and what's being done wrong.


Comic Book Carnival Twenty-Three











Welcome to the August 7, 2008 edition of the comic book carnival. Let's see what we got here for this month.





Tali presents Pop Art Pinup Girls posted at Tali, saying, "It’s true that mostly, pinup girls are considered a low art, at times completely thought of as porn. Today we talk a little about pinups in Pop Art- a highly respected art movement."





Patricia Twitchell presents The Adventures of Penny Pincher: Penny Pincher Finds A Home posted at Just Bears and Stuff, saying, "Not long ago or far away there was a beautiful teddy bear who sat on a shelf in a quaint gift shop located in the beautiful mountains of Southern Oregon. This unique teddy bear was waiting for someone to buy him and give him a home. This lovely bear was no ordinary bear. His stomach fur was a lovely shade of light brown that appeared almost cream color, surrounded by striking black fur with honey colored ears, nose and feet and his eyes were warm and kind. He had a wonderfully wise look on his face.

Join in on the Adventures of Penny Pincher as he finds a home and experiences lots of exciting journeys."





Jarrett presents Thoughts on Douglas Wolk's READING COMICS Part One posted at Comics Are Serious Business!.





Steve Anderson presents When Did Dean Venture Kick This Much Ass? posted at Kwanzoo.





Allen in Fort Worth presents The Whited Sepulchre: Brent Rinehart's Comic Book - I need a copy posted at The Whited Sepulchre, saying, "this is the most bizarre comic book I've ever seen."

Scott Davis presents Who Watches the Watchmen? posted at ZombieChatter.com.





Tali presents Manga and Anime Pinups - More than Big Tits and Big Eyes posted at Tali, saying, "Manga and Anime is ripe with unaware good girls and deliberately sultry bad women. This is a short salute to my personal favorite artists and characters."





My Top Ten presents My Top Ten Joker Quotes posted at My Top Ten, saying, "In honor of the upcoming release of the Dark Knight here is a list of my favorite Joker Quotes from the Dark Knight. Batman Begins remains one of my favorite films since the OG Batman back in the day. It will be exciting to see how Heath Ledger will compare to Jack Nicholson in the upcoming days. I missed the press screening for this film. I had a family emergency so please don’t send me hate mail and know that the tickets went to a good cause. I decided to toss a little teaser in before my list of quotes."





Steve Lafler presents El Vocho #11 posted at El Vocho, saying, "Graphic Novelist Steve Lafler offers this romantic thriller."





Matt OConnor presents Bad Films I love, Part One: Waterworld (1995) posted at Cult Movie News.
