\"FakeIf you head to Rich Johnston’s column at Comic Book Resources (I’ll spare the link for now), you’ll see a story on a new Captain Marvel Animated Series, entitled SHAZAM! He even has a leaked piece of promo art (shown right)!<\/p>\n

“With the successful release of “300” and the upcoming release of “TMNT” later this month, there is no doubt that Warner Bros. is enthused about comic book adaptations -just not DC’s for 2007.
\n“So how about next year?
\n“This is an image from the upcoming Captain Marvel cartoon for WB.”
\n– Rich Johnston, Comic Book Resources<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Except of course, for the fact that it isn’t. It’s actually an illustration my buddy Jim Zubkavich put up on his Live Journal last week<\/strong><\/a>, with his signature photoshopped out and a logo dropped on. What does buddy Jim have to say about this<\/strong><\/a>?<\/p>\n

“Some crazy fanboy Photoshopped out my sig and made up a mock promo pic as if it was a real WB animation piece! That’s hilarious. I’m flattered and confused at the same time. The rumor is marked as ‘green’, meaning it’s apparently been confirmed<\/strong>. So strange.”
\n– Jim Zubkavich<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Yeah, a ‘green’ rumour that’s totally untrue, that is strange<\/em> isn’t it? I bet that’s the first time THAT’S ever happened. Oh that Rich.<\/p>\n

Jim Zubkavich, in addition to being one of the dudes in charge of Udon (his official title is “whip cracker”), also just collected his webcomic The Makeshift Miracle <\/em>into a very handsome graphic novel available in better stores everywhere. Or, you know, at The Beguiling<\/a> too. Actually, if you’ve got nothing better to do this evening, Jim’s Blog is full of great stuff to read, including “The Most Unprofessional Letter Ever Sent To A Publisher” and “The Worst Things I’ve Ever Seen In Art Portfolios”, both of which are awesome and I’ve been meaning to link to for a little while now…<\/p>\n

Now I’m gonna go run and get a screen capture before they change the story, it’s just too good.<\/p>\n
