Divine Fits Explain Origins, How Secret First Show Wasn't a Secret

Posted: 14 Aug 2012 01:30 PM PDT

Divine Fits Facebook

When Divine Fits decided to perform their first gig ever in Austin, Texas on July 31, they wanted it to be done as discretely as possible. They didn't tell their friends and they even went under a moniker, Hot Skull, in hopes of just jumping on to someone else's bill that night at the Continental Club. But, in a time where word travels as quickly as a simple tweet, by the time the supergroup of sorts -- made up of Spoon's Britt Daniel, Wolf Parade/Handsome Furs' Dan Boeckner and New Bomb Turks' Sam Brown -- took the stage, they were playing to a full house.

"It was our very first show of all time and we knew it would be watched and written about so we thought we'd be ahead of them," Daniel tells Spinner, on the idea of wanting to secretly get their first show over without too many attentive eyes and ears. "But the word got out. I think they built the bill around us and everybody kind of knew."

Boeckner adds that the opening band was also partially responsible because they had announced it during their set.

COMICS: Chris Bachalo's Marvel NOW! DEADPOOL #1 Variant Cover Revealed

Posted: 14 Aug 2012 10:18 AM PDT

The Merc with a Mouth will be getting a new #1 series this November from writers Brian Posehn and Gerry Duggan, as well as artist Tony Moore (best known for his work on The Walking Dead and Venom). Thanks to Newsarama, we have a first look at the following variant cover by Chris Bachalo. When the series was revealed last week, Duggan had this to say. "I would say, though, if you're a fan of a mentally diminished Deadpool, your hopes will be met and your expectations rewarded. I think we wanted with the first issue to make a new Deadpool comic that a Deadpool fan will really enjoy and want to come back for the second issue. The other side there, though, is that we know this is a new #1 by guys that haven't done Deadpool yet, and we're hoping to pick up new fans who will buy the

RUMOR: Could We Eventually See A WALKING DEAD Movie?

Posted: 14 Aug 2012 09:39 AM PDT

The Walking Dead is just the latest in a long line of tv shows rumored to have a movie version in the works. Of course some eventually do make the transition -- Sex And The City, The X-Files --, while some seem destined to be the stuff of fan frustrating "what ifs" -- Lost, The Sopranos. Still, given the enormous popularity of AMC's gruesome series, there is always a possibility that we will eventually see a feature film, and Bloody Disgusting have heard that it might just happen. The site report.. I have some friends working closely with "The Walking Dead" crew and AMC who confirm with me rumblings of a feature film. But before you get your panties in a bunch, we're only in the third season of the popular zombie show – adapted from Robert Kirkman's astounding comic book – and when I say rumblings, I strongly suggest the idea
