Human Torch Extinguished: The death of Johnny Storm

Many people--especially the comic book fanatics of the world were shocked upon hearing the news that one-fourth of Marvel's The Fantastic Four has died. On FF#587 the Human Torch apparently dies stopping a group of monsters, trying to save his nephew, niece and BFF, The Thing so they could the Negative Zone.



Will he be resurrected a la DC's Superman? We'll never know.

As per his makers, Jack Kirby and Stan Lee, the coming issue (which apparently is the last) will be focusing on the remaining 3 members of the group marching on as they mourn for the loss of their own Johnny boy.

“The next issue of FANTASTIC FOUR, the last one, #558, follows the rest of the team through the month following Johnny’s death. Lots of things happen in that issue that not only cover how each of the family members are being affected, but also hints at the massive events right around the corner... This is not an ending.”

Speculations of Spidey replacing Johnny Storm is running rampantly all over the web. Is this for real? Only one way to find out, Flame--er, READ ON!!!

Manny Pacquiao on MTV Cribs

Talk about Pinoy pride!

Just recently, our very own Manny Pacquiao was featured on MTV Cribs. Not really a fan of him, but the fact that Pacquiao got himself to where he is right now, makes me happy for him. And to be seen on MTV Cribs just puts you on a total rock star status.



Congratulations MP!

Swift---er Lavigne for Vanity Fair

No, this is not Taylor Swift. Avril Lavigne poses for Vanity Fair Magazine (Italy). She ditches her rocker look for some sexy frocks, heels and girly make-up to promote her new album "Goodbye Lullabye".



Still looks like Taylor Swift to me! Just sayin.

Both her magazine feature in Vanity Fair and album will be out this March.
