* MoCCA will be moving to the Armory at Lexington and 26th this year. As much as that early June weekend in the Puck Building has become a welcome fixture of my summer, I’m glad they’ve moved the festival to a bigger building–it seemed clear this year that the two-floor solution they’d worked out just wasn’t working out for the people on the second floor. It’s also nice to see them shifting to an equally old-timey building instead of convention rooms in a hotel or something.

* Tor.com’s Douglas Cohen continues his series of Robert E. Howard 101 posts with an entry on Solomon Kane.

* Did I say Nick Cave had the T-Shirt of the Week, in my recent return to T-shirt blogging? I stand corrected. Ladies and gents, I give you Mediocore’s The House That Romero Built. (Via Uncrate.)

* Here is a sculpture by Ludovic Levasseur called “Head.” The material it is made out of is nightmares. (Via Monster Brains.)

* Radically shifting gears (you’re welcome), here’s the poster for The Unborn, the upcoming horror movie written and directed by Dark Knight credit-holder/Blade III: Trinity impresario David S. Goyer and starring Odette Yustman’s pooper.

You know what the best thing about this poster is? Okay, fine, second-best thing? Well, you see that creepy ghost kid in the mirror? You know, the one mandated by the Osment Act of 1999, requiring the presence of at least one creepy kid in all supernatural horror movies? He’s a Holocaust victim! The word you’re looking for is “class.” (Via STYD.)
