[SPEAKER_00]: Mike Richardson to Open Museum, Rolling Stones team up with Marvel.
[SPEAKER_00]: Ahoi adopts 100% human-made logo.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is Comic Book Club News for June 12th, 2026.
[SPEAKER_00]: Earlier this year, Mike Richardson was abruptly removed from his post at the head of Dark Horse, a company he created several decades ago.
[SPEAKER_00]: So what's next for Richardson?
[SPEAKER_00]: A museum.
[SPEAKER_00]: Burley Oregonian Richardson is opening a pop culture museum in downtown Milwaukee in a 14,000 square foot space previously owned by things from another world, the retail chain Dark Horse owned, which will be shutting down by the end of the year.
[SPEAKER_00]: And on display your items from the long history of Dark Horse, including per ICV-2, full-size models from Elliott and Predator and Pamela Anderson's costume from Barb Lyre.
[SPEAKER_00]: While there will be film and TV memorabilia, Richardson is emphatic that it will be built around comics.
[SPEAKER_00]: Though he does have a big sports collection as well, so I guess we'll see.
[SPEAKER_00]: While there's no opening date for the museum yet, Richardson also plans to have guest speakers and workshops in the space more on this as it develops.
[UNKNOWN]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_00]: In the surprise collab of the year, the Rolling Stones are teeming up with Marvel for their new album.
[SPEAKER_00]: No, you won't get to hear CB Sybolski sing, sadly.
[SPEAKER_00]: For a 13th dimension, the 25th studio album for the iconic band will feature 5 different Marvel editions, featuring on on the cover of Spider-Man, Captain America Wolverine, The Hulk, and Thor.
[SPEAKER_00]: They'll also come packaged with exclusive what if comic books feature each of the characters previously mentioned.
[SPEAKER_00]: What does one have to do with the other?
[SPEAKER_00]: Who's to say, though each cover of the album, Foreign Tons, features the Rolling Stone Tung logo being made by Spider-Man's webs, for example, or coming from Thor's Lightning.
[SPEAKER_00]: The Limited Edition Finals are 69-98 each, and will be in shipping on July 10, 2026.
[SPEAKER_00]: Back in April, Matt Kent unveiled a new logo for his Flex House line of books to proudly and loudly declare there is no AI anywhere near them, 100% human made.
[SPEAKER_00]: And now, a hoi comics is the first publisher to also adopt the open source logo for their own books.
[SPEAKER_00]: Through the beat, the logo will debut on the forgotten divine from Mark Russell and Russ Braun, which just hit Kickstarter.
[SPEAKER_00]: At a high editor-in-chief Tom Payer quote, AI is rightly loathed throughout the world of legitimate comics, and we want to make it clear for our readers that a high is 100% powered by the very human blood is wet and tears of our Uber-talented creators.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, hey, we'll be using the logo on all projects going forward.
[SPEAKER_00]: We're comic book club news.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm Alex Zelbin.
[SPEAKER_00]: And that dark horse museum belongs in a museum.
[SPEAKER_00]: Look, they're not all winners.
