Ill-Received New DC Comics Character Totally Floats our Boat
http://www.nerve.com/ CS/ blogs/ scanner/ archive/ 2008/ 05/ 20/ ill-received-new-dc-com...
Meet Shy Crazy Lolita Canary. She's a tiny bird-girl in a private-school outfit who -- as a member of DC's new, supposedly Japanese pop culture superteam Super Young Team -- apparently has the bone-shattering ability to scream "Pardon me" with the combined voices of a million teens. Also: we pretty much love her, even though we've only seen the proto sketch featured above. Not everyone is a fan, though. Google her name and "Final Crisis," which is the DC book that she and her team make their first appearance in, and you'll find more than a little displeasure aimed her way.

In Other Blogs: Best Mugshots Ever, Angelina Jolie’s Nipples, and More
http://www.nerve.com/CS/blogs/nerveinsider/archive/2008/05/2...What’s the word on the bloggin’ streets? Scanner brings the news, and the crazy: Best. Mugshots. Ever. (Take note: best not to wear your “I love midget porn” T-shirt over the long weekend, no?) Lil Wayne has been reading Mayan prophecies: check out what he’s learned. Two celebs we haven’t heard from in awhile suck face in public. If you look closely, you can see Angelina Jolie’s nipples. For reals. Penthouse owns online Christian dating sites. Also for reals. Meet the new DC Comics character, Shy Crazy Lolita Canary. Guess which Star Trek star will take advantage of California’s new gay marriage law? Live long and prosper! All this and so much more at your Daily Scanner. Over at the Screengrab, we’ve got Joan Collins dishing on why Sean Connery never walked in one her naked body painted gold (and other deep thoughts on the James Bond franchise); Shreveport, Louisiana: not just for birthin’ Spears’ kids!; are you Jaman?; David Bowie calls “bullshit” on stage musical version of The Man Who Fell to Earth; and check out the latest from Cannes. The Modern Materialist brings us the most evil calculator ever (don’t tease me!); Got Milk? Get this awesome milk-splash chair; all sorts o’ hour glasses; a dog house bigger than your apartment; the smoking cigarette gun; egg pants; and “You Condoms.” As Materialista Wendy says, “They're the modern day calling card — they feature an image on YOU right on the package. Just send in a photo of yourself and they'll make a stylized black and white image to create your very own calling card condoms. Klassy!” And new video game blog 61 Frames Per Second brings us the trailer review for “The Conduit”; going vertical: how Capcom’s developers are changing the landscape of 3D games; a YouTube-r re-imagines Gradius as an old-fashioned text adventure; and are you “casual” or “hardcore”? Or is there another option…?
