 • Looking forward to the explosive looking The Man with the Iron Fists, might even see it at the theater.  RZA and the Wu-Tang Clan not only use their love and expertise of martial arts movies for inspiration, but comics references are all over their work. Director RZA's 1998 solo debut as Bobby Digital was epic; expect nothing less in his directorial debut under the tutelage of Quentin Tarantino.
RZA as Bobby Digital is not only fantastic but the cherry on top is the sleeve artwork with a Robert McGinnis-que feel to it courtesy of comics legend Bill Sienkiewicz.

    Take two fads (Greek yogurt and superheroes) smash them together in a cynical and horribly designed label and voila.  Can "see right through" this label. 

Choose FAGE if you want delicious Greek yogurt.
