Anonymous: Operation last resort. Pop Culture Observation.
All I can say is They went Total Bat Man on that Shit.
The video is about 9 minutes long and features a break down of why it is that so many tech activists and hactivists are enraged regarding the death of Aaron Swartz. Click here if you are unfamiliar with the guy. Anonymous uses flair and style that is evident of it's internet based culture. I am sitting here chuckling at the phrasing and the images used to get this totally scary idea across. I mean yeah Let's stick it to the man. But damn when I heard the "There will be change or there will be chaos." my first thought was: "Do I know any one with a survival bunker?"
Now granted that's a peak under the hood of a guy who loves his job at a comic book store. What has happened so far: Anonymous has taken over, or at least when I tried to visit, taken down the United States Sentencing Commission website. They Claim through out the video that there is an undisclosed undetermined amount of corrupted systems. they claim to have removed all traces of how this was done. they claim proper timing greater efficiency than the FBI and Flat out Rage fueled determination to create a change. So what are the next targets? How will you and I be affected?

Savage Wolverine #1
Savage Wolverine #1 This is a pretty awesome book. It is the modern jungle pulp fiction book. If you aren't so certain what style that entails or why it is so named then you are in for a treat. You can find the description of Pulp Fiction in the Marvel AR content found within Savage Wolverine #1. The art work is crisp and clean with the perfect amount of detail. The story moves with a fluid tempo that pulls you into Frank Cho's "Buddy movie featuring Wolverine and Shanna." The Marvel AR content is AMAZING. It is everything that I have wanted to see from the technology that Marvel introduced with Avengers Versus Xmen last year. The very first AR icon contains TONS of behind the scene art work. Pencils to pens to full completed pages. and there are two Frank Cho interviews. The first one describes the story overview from Cho's perspective while writing Savage Wolverine. The second details his approach to the Savage land. This is where I learned that I had indeed NEVER before seen Merpeople in the Savage Land. So to recap that last bit. I was reading this book and they showed/mentioned Merpeople and I think immediately to myself "Have I ever seen this before? Are there really merpeople in the Savage land?" then I looked at the Augmented Reality content and found that this exact question is answered by the author in an interview. Plus 3 to Interactivity!
Indestructible hulk remains my favorite title of the new Marvel offerings but the addition of this level of Augmented Reality content has really upgraded Savage Wolverine to the best book in the Marvel Now line up.
