Saturday Morning Comics!

A size chart of every Hanna Barbera character created!

CartoonBrew.com posted up a link to one of the coolest endeavors I have ever seen. A Chilean graphic designer by the name of Juan Pablo Bravo, created a size chart for over 600 Hanna Barbera characters dating between the late 1950's to the 2000's. He did a great job touching base with not only the more commonly known toons but also some of the B-list cartoons. Check it out and enjoy.

Raffle ends at the end of the month!

Marvel.com revealed what the new Women of Marvel Comiquette of Sue Storm is going to look like. Sideshow Collectibles has always done a fantastic job with their sculpts, but they nailed her look from the Fantastic Four #575 Women of Marvel variant by Djurdjevic. Flawless! What do you think?
