An Epic Day for Linkage

It’s an epic day in linkage; there are just too many things out on that world wide web worth showing off today. Instead of putting them all individually in the until now secret quickies category, I’m giving them a full fledged post. So, behold, great things from around the intertubes:

@BarackObama, @GregGrunberg: We’re totally in a comic together!
It all started a few days ago when Greg Grunberg of Heroes and Alias fame started following Wil Wheaton. Greg then mentioned he thought Wil would be great on Heroes. Wil, of course, was happy but tried to maintain ties to reality. Today, the plot thickened when Barack Obama got involved — kind of. Thanks to Wil Wheaton for most of the links.

Clive Barker’s The Thief of Always Graphic Novel Comes to the iPhone
When I was younger Clive Barker’s The Thief of Always was practically my favorite book. I can remember doing at least two book reports on it and purchasing at least two copies of it (one was either lent to a friend or lost outright). I probably read the book a half a dozen times. The Geeks of Doom article talks about an iPhone optimized version of the Thief of Always graphic novel adaptation. This, of course, lead me to Amazon and the knowledge that there actually is a graphic novel adaptation of the book! If you haven’t read the book, you must do so, now.

prop 8 – the musical
The last awesome link of the day brings us once again to Wil Wheaton’s website. He posted the video, found below, of Funny or Die’s latest creation, Prop 8 – The Musical. The video stars just about everyone you can think of and is a hilarious take on the Proposition 8 battle raging in California. Had we known gay marriage could save the economy, maybe the vote would have gone a different way. Want to know more? Check it out:
