Nerdweek News: Steamboat Willie Style!

Steamboat Willie Style

It’s been over a week since “Steamboat Willie” entered the public domain, and the result is predictable. We’ve gone STEAMBOAT WILLIE CRAZY! Or should that be “Plane Crazy,” the other Mickey Mouse cartoon that entered the public domain. I’ll show myself out.

Plus some controversy over DC covers — and it’s not what you think. And happy retirement to a legendary comics artist. Hope you enjoy!

If you want to pick up @pyrasterran’s artwork, you can go to his Etsy shop at this link — we are unaffiliated with Etsy.

However, Fanboy Planet is an Amazon affiliate, so we may earn a commission on purchases made through Amazon links on this and other pages.

Bonus: indie animator Marv Newland’s original “Bambi Meets Godzilla” — it made me laugh every timeĀ Creature Features showed it.
