Pop links: Stan Lee! New Gorillaz and Broken Bells albums streaming!

Not only does Stan Lee have a new series coming out in collaboration with Archie Comics (The Super Seven, mentioned here a week back or so), but he's collaborating with Boom! Comics, as well. The deal was hinted at via a bunch of crypic "Stan's Back" ads placed on various comics Web sites.

According to a Boom! press release, the partnership will premier three new super hero titles presented by Lee. Boom! EiC Mark Waid ("Irredeemable," "Incorruptible") and two other writers will be steering the titles beginning later this year, along with unannounced artists.

So, despite the hype, these titles are really Stan "presenting" stuff, as he did for years after his writing days at Marvel, not really taking an active, creative role, it seems. Not surprising, or shameful, at this point of his life and career. But also not much to get overly excited about.

-----

NPR is featuring a free listen of the new album by Gorillaz, the cartoon pop/hip-hop band helmed by former Blur singer Damon Albarn. I like their past stuff, so I'll be checking it out.



-----

This seems like it could be great -- also on NPR:

Broken Bells' self-titled debut, available here in its entirety for the week leading up to its release on March 9, is a smart pop record full of melody and invention. It's pretty and at times unorthodox, and it finds both Brian Burton (a.k.a. Danger Mouse) and James Mercer (of The Shins) drawing on each other's talents to make a record unique to each of them.

Pop links: Wally Wood! Hendrix remasters! New Hawaii Five-0 series! TV families reunite!

Catching up on several days' worth of groovy finds:

Wow! Jon's Random Acts of Geekery presents several lovely pages of Wally Wood art from his late-career stint on DC's All-Star Squadron. Loved these issues at the time, specifically for the great art. Dig the cool sci-fi machinery and Superman's retro space helmet.

The New York Times offers a roundup article about a new batch of Jimi Hendrix remasters plus a new posthumous album by the artist. Amazon has 'em all for $9.99 right now. Click on the links to order:

-----

A new version of "Hawaii Five-0" may be worth a look, judging from the cool cast:

Battlestar Galactica's Grace Park is trading in her sci-fi show gear for surf gear as she has been cast to join the upcoming CBS update of Hawaii Five-O.

Park will play Kona Kalakua, niece of squad member Chin Ho Kelly, who will be played by Lost's Daniel Dae Kim, according to The Hollywood Reporter.


-----

I find the popular Geoff Johns' comics strips needlessly grim and bloody and short on fun. But DC's new Flash series with Johns at the helm looks fun artwise anyway. It'd be nice if this great character got the update he deserved.



-----

See Marvel Comics' 1980s adaptation of "Time Bandits."

-----

"The Today Show" is doing family reunions of old TV show casts this week, including the Partridge Family. The Brady Bunch reunion, unfortunately, didn't work out.
