"After watching Johnny Knoxville (guest-voicing as himself) on Jackass, Peter and the guys film their own shenanigans.

UDON'S STREET FIGHTER IV

UDON Entertainment has announced a February launch for Street Fighter IV, a four-issue mini-series based on the new fighting game.

The series will spotlight new characters such as the enigmatic Crimson Viper, amnesiac brawler Abel, spicy Mexican wrestler El Fuerte and chubby kung-fu fighter Rufus.

Here's how UDON describes the book:

"The series will explore a new mystery, as top fighters from all around the world begin to disappear. With the world's focus set squarely on the Street Fighter II Tournament, few have noticed the unexplained disappearances. But when Street Fighter mainstays like Sakura, Dan and more get mixed up in the plot, you can be sure they'll be busting some kidnapper chops before too long! Plus fans will get an in-depth look at the back stories of some of the new Street Fighter IV cast, including the brand new boss character Seth and his connections to Street Fighter's big baddie M.Bison."

Written by Ken Siu-Chong with art by Joe Ng the Street Fighter IV mini-series will delay the previously announced Street Fighter III comic series by the same creative team. Future issues of UDON's core series, Street Fighter II Turbo, will include new Street Fighter III bonus stories. Turbo issues #8-10 will each feature a 4-page backup about a different Street Fighter III character. These join the already announced Street Fighter IV backup stories in Turbo #2-5.

Street Fighter IV #1 will feature covers by Ng and Arnold Tsang.

ADULT SWIM'S THE DRINKY CROW SHOW

Cartoon Network has announced that The Drinky Crow Show -- based on Tony Millionaire's comic strip Maakies -- will have its series premiere on Adult Swim on Sunday, Nov. 23 at 12:15 a.m. (ET/PT).

The animated comedy features Drinky, a suicidal crow with a drinking problem, and Gabby, a depraved monkey. Both are crew members aboard the SS Maakies, and together they go on a number of misadventures usually involving drunkenness, violence and mayhem.

From executive producers Millionaire and Eric Kaplan, The Drinky Crow Show originally aired in May 2007 as part of Adult Swim's Night of 1,000 Pilots.

Dino Stamatopolous lends his voice to Drinky Crow, with David Herman as Uncle Gabby and Becky Thyre as the Captain's Daughter. The show's theme song is performed by They Might Be Giants.

First published in the New York Press in 1994, Maakies currently runs in several American alternative newsweeklies, including The Seattle Stranger, LA Weekly and The Village Voice.
