Paul Pope’s One Trick Rip Off to be adapted into a movie

Paul Pope has long been one of my favorite creators, I know I have said that on here more times than I can count. With such epic self-published comics as THB, and his work for Vertigo and Dark Horse, and not to mention his highly kinetic art style, he has become a small press legend.

Finally, Hollywood is starting to notice. Word came out that his work One Trick Rip-Off is getting a movie deal. Continue reading “Paul Pope’s One Trick Rip Off to be adapted into a movie”

Marvel’s Mission: Impossible 90’s tie-in comic!

mip

Thanks to our friend Steve Biscotti for this one you can check out Steve’s site Whatchareading.com

With the impending release of Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation (July 31), I had decided to pull out my copy of Marvel Presents Paramount Comics Mission: Impossible #1. The one-shot, released in May 1996 to coincide with the release of the Brian DePalma film, serves as your standard, 90’s movie tie-in. Featuring a cover by Rob Liefeld (creator of Deadpool), the two featured stories are written by Marv Wolfman, with art by Pino Rinaldi, Rod Whigham, Andrew Wildman, and Liefeld. I remember quite fondly when this issue came out and of the moment I found this at my local comic shop in Forest Hills, NY – Royal Collectibles. Almost 20 years ago, I was just a seven year old boy and Mission: Impossible #1 was at the top of my list. Having a comic based on a film I had just seen was exciting and the most hilarious aspect about it was for quite a few years I had awaited a second issue. Little did I know what a “one-shot” was back then. Also, while I’ve picked up these issues over the years I’ve come across them, I had long been in the dark regarding a very interesting fact concerning Mission: Impossible #1 and Marvel.
