Link roundup

1. Annotations for League of Extraordinary Gentlemen Century 1969 (20% off at TFAW). Via.

2. Norwegian response to the gunman:
An inadequate boat and a decision to await a special armed unit from Oslo, 45 km (28 miles) away, delayed the response.

"When so many people and equipment were put into it, the boat started to take on water, so that the motor stopped," said Erik Berga, police operations chief in Buskerud County.
3. Chip Kidd is writing a Batman comic.

4. Seinfeld: The Most Kafkaesque Show on Television.

5. Lots of photos of the "vintage" Star Wars figures that will be clogging the shelves in the near future. Is someone buying these things in other cities? Not in LA.

Toys, toys, toys






Better photos of the new Marvel Universe figures.



70's-style Batman available only with Batman: Arkham City preorders at Toys R Us.



Deformed Dark Knight.



Venture Brothers.



New Ghostbusters toys including Vigo the Carpathian.



Neca announced that Gordon Freeman and the Portal 2 robots will be available in 2012.




3A Toys showed off a Stormtrooper and Boba Fett made just as concept pieces. They also announced that they obtained the Halo license (which seems like a waste of their talents - - the McFarlane Halo figures are already solid and affordable).

Official Adventure Time toys







I was a little worried after seeing the first photograph of official Adventure Time toys, but these look much better. No details on the plush, but as to the figures, "Expect to see them in Toys “R” Us by the end of September (at the latest). The 10-inch Finn - with a face that changes expressions and a backpack you can actually store stuff in - is worth the price of admission alone."
