Summer Movies and Pig Sickness

With summer movie season in full swing, it's time for my AMC column to look at the season's comic book movie offerings. First up, I teamed up with pal Matt Manning (author of the new Wolverine guide from DK Publishing) for five fun facts about everyone's favorite pointy-haired mutant. How does he get his mutton-chops to stay so sharp?

Next up is a look at the secret comic book movies of summer. Turns out Transformers: Revenge of Michael Bay and the Hayden Panettiere career-killer I Love You, Beth Cooper have comic book connections.

Also in the summer movie vein is my look at the many terrible upcoming chick flicks that no man should be dragged to for AOL's Asylum.com. Oh, Nia Vardalos. What sort of cultural stereotypes will you perpetuate this time?

Finally, my piece on the 10 pigs we'll always love, swine flu be damned, has gotten love from everyone from Neatorama to The Pig Blog. Any excuse to make a U.S. Acres reference.
