With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility... And With Great Responsibility Comes An Appearance On Late Night With Conan O'Brien!

What can I say? I've been called a tease before, and I'm sure that the comments of this post won't be the last to accuse me of such a thing... But I'm not revealing the name of the Pink Bear tonight. Sorry Atari. Tomorrow, my babies... Tomorrow.
BUT WHY?! You ask, sobbing. WHY DO YOU KEEP DOING THIS TO US?!
Well, it's fun. But more importantly, because I'm about to drop an Awesome Bomb on your minds, and I don't want you to get hurt. As we all know, this blog has broken brains before - so I must dole out the fun nuggets in equal measure, lest someone with a weak constitution should stumble upon our little dinner party freakshow in the process of trying to find The Daily Nightly and inadvertantly pop their parietal lobe. You dig?
So... Without further ado...
Ladies, Gentlemen, and Everything In Between: I'm pleased to announce that our very own Conan O'Brien is featured in a sweet new comic book. It's hitting the streets (droppin') today, and it's not just any old comic book - you know, like "McDonald's Molten Apple Pie Man" or "The Adventures of Cucumber O'Riley" (although I do love both of those books and can't wait for a crossover). No - Conan is featured IN THE NEW SPIDERMAN COMIC BOOK, Y'ALL!!!
Commence wetting your pants.... Now.
The comic I'm talking about is called "MYTHOS: SPIDER-MAN" and is a retelling of the spectacular webslinger's origin!!! For those of you who aren't familiar with the Spiderman backstory or who haven't seen the movie (what I am I saying?! Is there ANYBODY left out there who hasn't had their eyes melted by Raimi's badass blockbuster?!), I'll give you a tiny explanation: See, in the original, right after Peter Parker gets his powers he goes out to a underground wrestling match to test out his newfound abilities and start making a name for himself. Coolio, correct? Well, in the NEW and IMPROVED version (out today, go buy it), instead of going to a silly old wrestling match, Parker APPEARS ON LATE NIGHT WITH CONAN O'BRIEN. Oh snaps, dudes. Oh snaps two times.
I'm not kidding about this. It's totally, TOTALLY awecellent!!! Thanks Marvel!!!
I'd be remiss not to mention that the wonderful webcrawlin' artwork is done by Paolo Rivera, and the series is penned by the Inhuman talent of Mr. Paul "Hellblazer" Jenkins!!! This may mean nothing to you, but I'm a huge comicbook fan, and these guys are seriously great. It's so cool that they put us in there!! I speak for everyone at Late Night when I say: DUDEBROS, YOU GUYS ROCK. (Okay, not everyone uses the word "dudebros", but the sentiment is true for everyone here!!!)
What's that? You don't believe me that these guys are the bee's knees?! Well, then... WHY DON'T YOU TAKE A LOOK FOR YOURSELF, PARTY PEOPLE?!

Big ups to Marvel for hooking us up with these pages... And what awesome pages they are!! Make sure you take a close look at the second one... You may see a few surprises (ie cameos) lingering around!!! SO, SO AWESOME.
What are you waiting for, suckahs?! Get out there and pick this bad boy up!!!
And tomorrow, the bear.
I promise.
Maybe.
