Tetsujin 28 is a Japanese manga series about a 10-year-old kid, Shotaro, and his crime fighting robot sidekick. It ran between 1956 and 1966 and was illustrated by Mitsuteru Yokoyama. PinkTentacle recently ran some old scans and we liked them so much we decided to reproduce them here for no discernable reason.
Just a reminder that you can read our weekly gossip/trash column over at Lifelounge. This week we’re all about depressed polar bears, cats slapping dogs, Christina Aguilera sexing the ladies, Steve Jobs trying to sex Mark Zuckerberg, Kanye’s diamond grill and Terry Richardson doing his thing with the ladies from Glee. Read it here.
Biggie and Puffy – 1993. A million years ago.
Stussy has been busy rebranding itself these last couple of years. The company released that documentary about Dilla, partnered with Stones Throw records and got Pete Rock and DJ Premier in on the action. Their latest thing is a short film with Jon Naar, one of the first guys to start taking photos of New York Graffiti back in the early 70…
To quote @Seanmaki, “When Fleetwood Mac tour, they have separate planes, limos, hotels, only meet for shows. Because they hate each other. That’s rock.”
We’ll do another ‘bands that hate each other’ next week. Probably.
Interesting tidbit: Back when MySpace was still ‘a thing’ Kanye West liked to send the ladies pictures of himself naked. Some of those ladies saved the pics and are now selling them on the open market.
While we have approximately zero interest in a naked Kanye, we do like web hits – lots and lots of web hits. With that in mind, now seems as good a time as any to revisit this bootleg Kanye West / 88 Keys videoclip and write a suitably ‘optimised’ headline. That’s how these things work, right? Right?
PS. In case you’re wondering, it’s Ice La Fox and Daisy Marie in the video…
It’s 1:30am on a Sunday night and I’ve been sat at this computer for several hours writing articles and stuff. My brain is pretty much moosh. Maybe if I had written this update earlier in the day I could have come up with an interesting / relevant angle to introduce these vintage Swiss Air posters. As it stands, I’ve got nothing… Um, they look nice. I like them. I stole the images from ISO50.
Boards of Canada – Roygbiv. A lovely fan-made video.
