Due to a combination of sudden illness, life being life and a desire to view a certain Spartan film without the pressure of having to get a review in before my usual weekend deadline, there will not be a review of the long awaited film adaptation of 300 this week.
What we do have, however, should be a lot more amusing. I hope.
Inspired by the recent Civil War Parodies of mightygodking, I recently created my own brief Photoshopped parody comic. Here is the original comic, as seen in Fantastic Four #543
Now here is my “new and improved†version, inspired by recent events. On the odd chance you have not read it yet or heard the news somewhere else in the last few days, this parody does contain spoilers of Captain America #25 and Civil War: The Initiative.
Yes, it’s fun and easy to alter the dialogue of your favorite funny books. So fun and easy, I’ve decided that I’m going to hold a little contest. Underneath this blurb is a link to a file with all of the dialogue balloons already whited-out.

Using whatever tools are at your disposal (I personally recommend GIMP), create your own parody comic. Post it to your own web-space (Again, I recommend Image Shack) and send me the link to your comic. If you’re completely hopeless with graphics, feel free to e-mail me a script.
Use that link, BTW. Not the one at the bottom of the page.
The deadline for all entries is Midnight EST on March 17th. (Saturday Evening).
The top three candidates will be printed in the next Looking To The Stars and get a special Starman “No Prize†of no cash value whatsoever.
Tune in next week. Same Matt time. Same Matt website.
