James Gunn and Peter Safran are stepping down as co-heads of DC Studios after four years:
• Marvel Studios veteran Jeremy Latcham will take over as president and chief creative officer on Dec. 1
• Gunn and Safran will “return full time to their creative work” ahead of “Man of Tomorrow,” the sequel to 2025’s “Superman,” which hits theaters July 9, 2027.
• Said Gunn and Safran: “Four years ago, we set out to unite DC under one creative vision. In that time, we helped restore Superman to the heart of DC, while opening new doors and telling new stories in film and television with Peacemaker, Creature Commandos, Lanterns and Clayface. We’re immensely proud of the team that turned that ambition into something real, including the actors, crews and executives we had the opportunity to collaborate with. We’ve shared a creative history with Jeremy going back to Marvel, and we’re eager to see the perspective he brings to DC’s next chapter. We’re excited to return to what drew us to this job in the first place, which is telling the stories we love, including the next chapter of Clark and Lex’s journey in Man of Tomorrow.”

This month in 1967, The Monkees released PISCES, AQUARIUS, CAPRICORN & JONES LTD.
It was our fourth consecutive No. 1 album in the U.S., spending five weeks at the top of the Billboard album chart. That also made us the first act to score four No. 1 albums in a single calendar year. Not a bad run!
Musically, we were stretching out quite a bit. There was my good friend Harry Nilsson’s “Cuddly Toy,” Boyce and Hart’s “Words,” Goffin and King’s “Pleasant Valley Sunday” and “Star Collector,” Mike’s “Daily Nightly” and “Don’t Call On Me,” and “What Am I Doing Hangin’ ’Round?” bringing a little country into the mix.
And then there was the Moog.
I had gotten one of the earliest Moog synthesizers sold, and we put it to work on “Daily Nightly” and “Star Collector,” helping make the album one of the earliest rock records to feature the instrument.
So there was pop, country, psychedelia, electric banjo, a brand-new synthesizer, and even Peter reciting “Peter Percival Patterson’s Pet Pig Porky.”
I'd say we were keeping busy!
Which track from PISCES, AQUARIUS, CAPRICORN & JONES LTD. gets you moving today?

There was a difference when Giacioa was inking Ross Andru & when Mike Esposito was inking him. Giacoia gave Spider-Man the Romita eyes, which I love. Esposito always made him look like Electric Company Spidey eyes to me. I thought Andru's work suffered under Esposito.

You know, Werner Klemperer really was good. Playing the buffoon. Deceptively easy to dismiss what he did. There's a reason he won the emmy for Hogan's Heroes.

Burt Reynolds’ Hooper was the first film to run outtakes during the closing credits.
Director Hal Needham wanted a way to spotlight the insane stunt work, so he rolled the credits over a montage of outtakes, alternate takes, and big stunts.
A format still used 48 years later.
