You've seen what Anthony Hopkins looks like as Odin in "Thor," but you probably haven't seen him artistically rendered on an iPad by Pia Guerra. She posted TwitPic of her take on the Allfather today. Mark Millar, meanwhile, issued another proxy update on "X-Men: First Class" based on a conversation he had with Matthew Vaughn.
You can find out what's going on there after the jump along with some thoughts on Christopher Nolan's "Inception" and the story of what David Mack did when a young neighbor kid came knocking on his door for his advice. That heart-warming tale and Brian Michael Bendis' skepticism await you in today's retweets.
