Kevin Smith to Write The Green Hornet, New Batman Mini
Kevin Smith is returning to comics – in two ways.
According to Entertainment Weekly’ Popwatch column, Smith will be writing a new Batman miniseries as well as Green Hornet for Dynamite Entertainment.
Yes, Smith’s attachment to the Green Hornet does stir memories. The miniseries for Dynamite will be based on Smith’s screenplay for the unproduced Green Hornet movie that he wrote in 2004. 'It's the Hornet movie I'd make if I was making it today,' Smith told EW.com. 'And there's no better time to do that than before Seth Rogen and Michel Gondry's version defines the character for the mainstream.'

Ric Estrada, R.I.P.
Comic book and animation artist Ric Estrada died this morning [Friday, May 1], the result of a long, losing battle with cancer.
Ric was born February 26, 1928 in Havana, Cuba and began selling his work at age 13 to a popular Cuban magazine called Bohemia. He attended University of Havana where, he always claimed, another student was Fidel Castro. Via a relative, he developed a friendship with Ernest Hemingway, who took an interest in the young artist's work and encouraged him to relocate to New York. Ric moved there at age 20 but never stayed in one place for very long, travelling the world and living briefly in dozens of other cities. Whenever he was back in Manhattan, he managed to work in comic books, including two of his proudest jobs...stories for the EC war comics edited and written by Harvey Kurtzman. Other companies that were glad to have his art included Hillman, Western Publishing, St. John and Ziff-Davis.

PDQ#
I think that I've blogged about this system before, but even if I have it could stand repeating. I ran a few really fun PDQ games while still in Cleveland, one a zero-prep game with people who had never played the system and who helped create the setting, and the game will be one of my favorites for a while.
And for those looking for a tie in to a geek favorite, perhaps one with an upcoming franchise revitalizing movie, look here.
PDQ# (PDQ Sharp!) is a new version of the PDQ Core Rules, optimized for swashbuckling gaming. Designed for simplicity, speed, and flexibility in play, PDQ# is the engine for the upcoming Swashbucklers of the 7 Skies RPG.
