Medikidz Needs Artists!

by

A project to discuss health issues via comics, the Medikidz team are recruiting.

So of course I’m mentioning them here.  And of course, I asked them for an interview.

The basic idea intrigues me because it takes me back to “Timer” and his ventures inside the human body back in the ancient 70’s.  An idea worth reviving.

Though kinda odd later as he pitched for cheese, but hey.

Here’s the news on that one.

May I humbly suggest that as per my post on Banned Books:

  • This gives you great material for your comics site or group.
  • This could inspire a good convention event.
  • Would be great for a reading room.
  • Have a giveaway at your convention, store, or shop.

So having seen Thor 2: Return of Loki and some other guy with blond hair, it’s obvious (and as in being discussed all over the internet) that Marvel is going large. Huge. Enormous.

This all sounds like it may lead to a rather “rocky” crossover with a real gem of an idea that could get you stoned if you did it wrong. Wow, that metaphor got out of hand.

So what is Marvel doing having, as it were, thrown down the gauntlet?
