Checks for comics reap huge number in auction
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Stephen Fisher, chief executive of ComicConnect.com and Metropolis Collectibles in New York, said Tuesday that the 1938 check was auctioned online to an unnamed buyer.
"Two people were battling it out over the check," he said of the furious last minute bidding that lifted the price from its start of $1 last month to the final bid
PHILADELPHIA — The $412 check that DC Comics wrote to acquire Superman and other creative works by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster has sold for $160,000 in an online auction.
The check was made out to Siegel and Shuster and deposited. It includes a line item for $130 showing DC paid for full ownership and rights to Superman.
Siegel and Shuster created Superman together while teenagers in Cleveland, Ohio, in the early 1930s. His first appearance was in "Action Comics" No. 1 in April 1938.
Monday night.
And even though the check changed hands, a legal dispute over creator's rights to Superman has raged since then and is far from settled.
Show satirizes political role
MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE
"What have I been missing here?" asks Vice President Selina Meyer (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) as she prepares to make nice with a senator (Kate Burton) she hopes will get her out of a tight spot with the plastics industry.
"Power," replies the senator, who only pretends to be joking.

That's one exchange from the Sunday premiere of HBO's satiric and hilariously profane "Veep" that doesn't require the insertion of dashes. It also sums up the predicament in which the holder of what our first vice president, John Adams, called "the most insignificant office that ever the invention of man contrived" finds herself after losing her party's nomination to a man who apparently stopped calling as soon as shed helped

get him elected.
Not that we're going to find out what party she belongs to, the political realities of "Veep" being so universal that the show was created by a Scotsman, Armando Iannucci ("The Thick of It," "In the Loop"), who's been poking fun at politics mostly from the other side of the pond until now.
"I was always one of those geeks as a teenager who waited who stayed up through the night to watch the American election results," Iannucci told reporters in January.
And, yes, he "loved" "The West Wing." But "that portrayal of Washington as a clean and noble heartland just wouldn't wash with the public. We've seen too much now," said Iannucci.
LOS ANGLES — The late Tupac Shakur rose again Sunday night at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival
brought to life by James Cameron's visual production house, Digital Domain, and two hologram-imaging companies, AV Concepts and the U.K.-based Musion Systems. The image joined headliners Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre for two songs.

West coast rapper revived in new form
It may not be the last we see of the rapper who was shot to death in Las Vegas in 1996. The Wall Street Journal reports that Dr. Dre is planning to take the holographic Shakur on tour in the coming months. "Dre has a massive vision for this," Ed Ulbrich, chief creative officer at Digital Domain, told the Journal. For now, however, Dre is quiet about his plans, and he's asked Digital Domain and AV Concepts to refrain from telling the press too much about how they rendered the musician.
"He doesn't want the magic spoiled for the people who will see it" during his set at the second weekend of the Coachella festival, a spokeswoman for Digital Domain told the Los Angeles Times.
Still, those familiar with special effects say the holographic Shakur was created using the same concept as an old magic trick, Pepper's Ghost. The trick is to have a transparent piece of material that will reflect an image projected onto it while still allowing other people on the stage to move behind and in front of the image.
In the past, the transparent material was usually glass. For Sunday's show, it was Mylar, a highly reflective, lightweight plastic.
