Newsarama reports that further issues of the Fringe comic book series will be delayed until January. The first issue hit stands on September 3, timed to the Fox series' debut, but due to a desire to adhere closely to the television series, DC Comics has decided to push back subsequent issues.
"The writers of the show want to make sure the comic book is integrated into the mythology of the Fringe world, so we have decided to refocus the direction of the comic book," announced Hank Kanalz, VP-General Manager of DC's WildStorm imprint.
"Unfortunately, this means that we will have some delays," he continued, "but [the series] will be back in January."
According to Fringe's co-story consultant Athena Wickham, the TV series' comic book companion "will consist of two parts. Part A will tell the back-story of two of our key characters: Walter Bishop and William Bell. Part B will consist of stand-alone stories.

You can also watch 15 minutes of a Lynch film and give up on it before you even get into the darkness he sets out to create.

Jon Bon Jovi gave Detroit’s East Side something to sing about Monday. The Grammy winner helped knock down a block’s worth of buildings to make room for five new homes. The houses are being built by a partnership between the rocker’s Philadelphia Soul Charitable Foundation, the Saturn car company and Habitat for Humanity. “I wanted to give something back to you,” the rocker, whose foundation provides affordable housing to communities in need, told the crowd, according to the Associated Press.

Time for one last greeting from Twin Peaks. Sorry it’s taken so long to get around to this. I never intended the Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me to be the TV Club’s Chinese Democracy but I kept getting busy with other projects and then there was a vacation in there somewhere, as distant as that already seems. Something else held me up, too. I wasn’t exactly looking forward to revisiting Fwwm, a film that disappointed me when I first saw it in 1992 and didn’t improve for me upon watching it on DVD a couple of years ago. But maybe I was wrong. I didn’t care for Lynch’s Lost Highway the first time through, but when I watched it again this year for a DVD review it looked like a near-masterpiece to me.
