Strange things have been coming to me in the mail recently. Last week, I received Peter Parker's backpack. Days later, a cell phone of unknown origin arrived as well. Though I was initially unsure of what the clues were pointing to, the mystery finally revealed itself to me: I was being summoned to support Spider-Man on an "Amazing" adventure. Watch the video below to see how it all played out.

Yesterday we saw a teaser for the upcoming arc 'Ends of the Earth' in THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN. Doc Ock is ready to get his final revenge against Spider-Man and he's not going to do it alone. Today, Marvel has released another teaser. This one features Electro.
Looks like we might be seeing the return of the old "Parker Luck."
The next big Spider-Man epic begins in Amazing Spider-Man #682, part one of Ends Of The Earth, by Dan Slott and Stefano Caselli! The Sinister Six, led by the vengeful Doctor Octopus, is back and they’re looking for revenge!
“Max Dillon has evolved from a simple super villain to a living force of nature,” explains Slott. “How can anyone stop power incarnate?”
Can Spider-Man & Earth’s Mightiest save the world before Doc Ock’s explosive endgame is revealed? Find in Amazing Spider-Man #682 hitting comic shops and the Marvel Comics app this March!

TBS Gives Conan Extension To 2014
Posted By: Screened
Wed Feb 22 2012 14:00:00 pm
Despite the fact that Conan's show has fallen off in the ratings quite notably in the year after his show debuted in November 2010, it looks like TBS sees signs of life, and has rewarded him with a two-year extension for the show. As THR points out, despite the fact that his show averaged 2.4 million viewers in its first month, that number has declined to an average 1.1 million viewers over the past month and a half; that's still an improvement of almost 30% over late 2011, though, so the show is making up ground it lost since its debut.
Conan is still well behind most network late-night offerings, as well as The Daily Show and The Colbert Report, but TBS feels pretty strongly about Conan's ability to drive viewership on the web and through social media, for whatever that's worth. They've spent heavily on promotions for his show, and also spent a lot of money on Two And A Half Men reruns to precede it (up to two million dollars per episode), so they're definitely committed to the Conan O'Brien experience. Theoretically they'll know more about how long-term they want to go with it by the time the end of this next contract rolls around.
Are you still watching Conan? I honestly don't think I have seen any episodes of it since the premiere, but that's mostly because I'm often doing the next morning's Screened work at 11 PM. I get most of my exposure to The Daily Show and The Colbert Report through Comedy Central's website clips, but I haven't yet found a compelling reason to tune into Conan, as my late-night viewing proclivities probably peaked in high school with David Letterman. I have a hard enough time tuning in every week for a show, let alone every night.

'Men In Black 3' Poster Promises To Go 'Back In Time'
Posted By: MTV Splashpage

Summer 2012 is shaping up to be the biggest blockbuster season fans have seen in a long time. Between "The Avengers," "The Dark Knight Rises" and "G.I. Joe: Retaliation," all of our favorite nerdy characters are returning to the big screen for our viewing pleasure.
Among them are the Men in Black, who return to the big screen after more than a decade in "Men in Black 3." A new poster and some images have hit the web to get us pumped for the movie, out May 25, and they are definitely doing their job.
The poster -- courtesy of Twitter user RIMMK7 -- follows the tried-and-true "Men in Black" one-sheet formula by showcasing leading men Will Smith, Tommy Lee Jones and Josh Brolin wearing suits and their token black shades while sporting stoic expressions on their faces. The tagline reads, "Back in time," which is really all anyone needs to know about the "Men in Black 3" plotline going into the film.
In addition, Empire has three new photos from "Men in Black 3" included in their April issue (out on newsstands February 23). Comic Book Movie got some scans of the images ahead of time, and they actually do look pretty great. The new photos showcase the relationship between Smith's Agent J and Brolin's young Agent K, a relationship that fans have come to know and love between Smith and Jones in the previous two "Men in Black" movies.
So far "Men in Black 3" seems to include everything fans loved about the first two films while giving the film its own unique twist. But only time will tell whether "Men in Black 3" is just homage to a successful franchise or actually makes the series relevant in a new decade. Honestly, I'm just excited to see Brolin show off more of his spot-on Jones impression.
