Each week we get spoilers for the latest manga chapters of Naruto. One of the spoilers for this week was that Hinata was killed by Pain. Of course many thought this was fake, myself included. Surly the author wouldn't kill of my favorite female character in Naruto. Well, the truth hurts and it seems that's exactly what he did. Naruto has had a crush on Sakura since his days in the ninja academy. She was the only girl he had eyes for and she couldn't see him for dust and at the start of the series, she treated him like crap. Why anyone would still be interested in a girl like that is beyond me. Hinata has had a crush on Naruto for the longest time and I'd always wondered if and when she'd admit her feelings to his face. Well she finally did. And she didn't just tell Naruto that she likes him. Hinata told Naruto that she loves him . Naruto is clearly stunned by her words. After this revalation, she is killed off panel right in front of Naruto. I wanted to scream o...

If you were a child of the '80s, you were probably into the kickin' Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. They had a sweet cartoon, comics, action figures, and sweet video games. These days, I'm still a TMNT fan. I've said all that so I could pimp this fine piece of artwork I found at Deviant Art. Hands down one of the best art pieces I've seen for TMNT. Ever.

Yeah, I know I haven't blogged about anymore episodes of season 2 for Spectacular Spider-Man. I've seen every one that's been aired in Canada thus far through mysterious powers and by "mysterious powers, I of course, mean the internet. So I'll be reviewing episodes 3-5 right here and now. Reinforcements Like, the first season, I felt the third episode of season 2 is the weakest one thus far, but it isn't bad by any means. The fights were cool, but not as impressive as those seen in "Blue Prints" or "Destructive Testing." In this episode, Spidey becomes aware that all of the tech that Mysterio had stolen is still missing. So he goes to Blackie Gaxton for info and runs into Patch on the way out. Those names will only be familiar to those who are die hard Spidey fans. Yes, they really only stuck around for the early issues of Amazing Spider-Man, but its still awesome that they were included in the show. When Greg Weisman said they were going to...

Best. Poster. Ever.

Yeah...

How many times has the cover to Amazing Fantasy #1 5 been replicated? I honestly don't know, but I'd wager it's been done more the even the Man of Steel's Action Comics # 1 cover. Really, though, I never tire of the homage. Amazing Fantasy #15 has one of my all-time favorite comic covers. This Obama/Biden homage piece I found on deviant art is another one lovely addition. Only thing missing are some word balloons coming from Obama.

With the Spider-Man Noir mini-series currently going on, I thought this would be as good a time as any to share one of my favorite pieces that was submitted on Deviant art. This is (obviously) a noir-like take on Spidey and a pretty awesome one at that. If you want to see more of ninjanik's art, check out his deviant page here.
