Hi Gene,
I just wanted to tell you that it was a great thrill to meet you at the Touchtunes convention. Even Rod Stewart had a blast with you. We love your show and watch it all the time, I will be looking for the episode that I had the pleasure to attend. Your family is awesome, you have a great repore with them. Your son could follow in your footsteps. We'll be watching you!!! Check out the pictures I have sent to you from our most memorable introduction. By the way you are much sexier than I had expected. I also sent you a performance picture of Rod Stewart himself (Mr. Danny D).
 Gene Simmons’ Zipper #1
October 26th, 2007 by Dan Grendell
Writer: Tom Waltz
Artists: Casey Maloney and Stacie Ponder
Publisher: IDW Publishing
Boy, I couldn’t wait to get Gene Simmons’ Zipper open and take a look at what was inside.
Okay, it’s a horrible name. But the book is good.
In a truly unitary culture, where all are one and everything is done for the betterment of the group, there can be no greater sin than to be an individual. To be different, to think differently, is the mark of a dangerous mind- one that threatens the entire structure that holds the culture together. It is from just this type of culture, on the world of Etheria in the Nether Ether, that Denizen Xeng Ral arises. It isn’t made clear whether he has always harbored autonomous ideas or whether something has awakened his own thoughts within him, but at the start of the book we meet him as judgment is being passed for his crime of individuality. He steals an exo-suit and escapes through a transport wormhole to a distant world- Earth. Of course, on Earth he doesn’t exactly fit in, despite his best efforts to disguise himself, and Xeng Ral quickly picks up the nickname Zipper, makes enemies, and does his best to hide from is own people, who are desperately searching for him.
 Tom Waltz does a good job of making Xeng Ral feel alien but not so much that he is unrelatable. You feel for him as he makes his escape from what we can only see as a despotic empire (but that surely must seem to those in it as a peaceful, safe environment). Xeng Ral simply seeks a place where he can be his own person, and does his best to peacefully blend into Earth culture (though his attempts at dialogue are pretty funny), but at the same time he has no problem at all producing weapons and grinding someone’s body apart when threatened. From peace to ultra-violence in seconds, his manner is just inhuman enough to let you know he’s not of this world.
Casey Maloney does some spectacular work here on art, with some great detail and strong storytelling work. He’s backed up well by Stacie Ponder on inks, who brings his pencils some real depth without overshadowing them, and Dusty Yee on colors, who adds a whole new level of emotion to the story with his color palette. Most impressive was the way the artists made the scenes on Etheria seem calm and idyllic while portraying Earth as dirty and dangerous, the opposite of what you would expect given that Xeng Ral flees Etheria to find freedom on Earth. It makes for an interesting mixed feeling while reading that makes it hard to just write off the Etherians as just bad guys, instead making me consider them as aliens with a different culture.
I found this to be a cool sci-fi action book, with some great art and a story worth following. It’s definitely my favorite so far from the Gene Simmons line, though I have to wonder- why all the zippers?

GENE SIMMONS’ DOMINATRIX #1-2 (IDW)
So I loved Simmons’ first foray into publishing, HOUSE OF HORRORS. I wasn’t so sure that I’d like his next character, Dominique Stern, the super-powered dominatrix of the title. I am not normally a fan of books that feature some big-boobed, leather-clad chick jumping around, being put in various sexualized positions like a third-rate Milo Manara story. I was actually afraid that we were going to have another STRIPPERELLA on our hands.
But damned if it isn’t goofy enough to work! Dominique isn’t some unlikable cardboard dominating bitch. She’s actually a sweet girl put into a silly enough predicament when she accidentally takes some pill which give her powers, causing bad people to come after her, forcing her to use her dominatrix skills and Amazonian built-in defense. It’s Wonder Woman meets the films of Just Jaeckin. With the exception of a few forced panels of completely unrealistic girl talk (writers, please ask a woman for help when writing dialogue like this), there’s no pain here, only complete pleasure. Keep it up, Simmons!

GENE SIMMONS’ HOUSE OF HORRORS
 From Dan Head's Friday Mad Science Column
Anthology edited by Tom Waltz
Published by IDW, 60+ pages for $9.99
I’ll admit up front that horror comics in general and horror anthologies specifically aren’t my bag as a reader, but so far I’ve liked this series a lot. Issue 1 was very strong, with at least three stories that stood out in my mind afterwards as both disturbing and thought-provoking. Chris Ryall’s story about the first manned mission to Hell was probably the best of the bunch, but I also enjoyed Tom Waltz’s story—as I always seem to—and the last story, a really creepy alien abduction fantasy written by Dwight L. MacPherson. I didn’t think Issue #2 was quite as strong as Issue 1, but it was sexier, and it had a cool food-fetish motif that I dug the most. And in fairness, the last story, written by Ivan Brandon, was both creepy as Hell and surprising—at least to me.
 What this new anthology series really has going for it, however, is its art. It is exceedingly rare to find an indie anthology of any kind with art that’s decent, but this one is not only decent but actually exceptional throughout. That, to me, was the best thing about this series. Not only did we get a bunch of different creepy stories, we got them with a variety of different artistic visions. Different guys see this stuff different ways, with the result that each new story is a sort of a revelation. Even when the writer is reaching with his ending, most times the artists here are making it work.
For horror fans, this series is a must. For the rest of us, I’d say that the first issue at least is worth searching for. I know that I’ll be looking forward to Issue #3 just to see how well they follow up what has so far been a very solid start.

BEVERLY HILLS, CA. (October 22, 2007) – The powerful one-two punch of NO GOOD TV’s uncensored entertainment hub at www.ngtv.com and dedicated YouTube partner channel at www.youtube.com/nogoodtv have combined to catapult the internet sensation past the 100 million clip view mark in six months. The network is currently the #5 most viewed partner of all time on YouTube. NO GOOD TV’s unprecedented success was achieved without the aid of any advertising. Even more impressive, viewership numbers are spread across multiple clips featuring A-list stars as varied as Robin Williams, Borat, Jessica Alba, Gerard Butler, Seth Rogen, Will Ferrell, Ben Stiller, Matt Damon and Jim Carrey as well as musical artists Akon, DJ Khaled, Fall Out Boy, Snoop Dogg and TI, among others. NO GOOD TV has achieved appointment viewing status online with millions of loyal fans returning daily for the network’s signature brand of uncensored, celebrity-filled fun.
“We’d like to thank our friends at YouTube for their tremendous support.

Hi Gene,
 On the new Kid Rock cd there is a song called Lowlife and one line of the lyrics goes: “The landlord called the rent is due/ I spent it all on a KISS tattoo/ I rock and roll all night”

Wagging Tongues: Ten Questions with Gene Simmons
By: Kurt Amacker, Columnist
 You think you know Gene Simmons. You know Kiss and the Demon with the extraordinary tongue, the actor, and the writer. Now, in his effort to enter every medium imaginable, Simmons has branched into comic book publishing with his IDW imprint, Simmons Comics Group. Comic readers have seen Kiss comics in the shops since the band’s first rise to prominence. Marvel published the band’s first incarnation as superheroes. Image, Dark Horse, and, most recently, Platinum Studios have published the band’s exploits since the 1996 reunion. But, Simmons Comics Group stands as a departure from Kiss and a personal project. In fact, Simmons efforts to distance the imprint from his band and its licensed comics suggest a desire to attract not just Kiss fans, but all comic readers. Speaking as one who’s never cared for Kiss but admires Simmons’s ambition, the first issue of Zipper pleasantly surprised me. Plotted by Simmons but written by IDW editor Tom Waltz and drawn by Casey Maloney (respective writer and artist of Children of the Grave), Zipper tells the story of Xeng Ral – an alien rebel that escapes from Etheria, collectivist planet, and reaches Earth, with his former masters in pursuit. He lands on our planet clad from head to toe in a PVC suit similar to what you’d see at a fetish club. Before he even arrives, a televangelist named Dr. Deveroux prophesizes his arrival to rapt audiences – all of whom willingly fill the Doctor’s coffers for his good word. And, to Xeng Ral’s dismay, the first humans he encounters do not come in peace. Zipper is the next series launched by Simmons Comic Group, after Gene Simmons House of Horrors and Dominatrix. The first issue will hit shops in November. Mr. Simmons kindly answered a few of my questions about both Simmons Comics Group and Zipper.
Kurt Amacker: Zipper begins with a dystopian premise – an individual trying to break out of a collectivist society. A “dystopian escape” is not an uncommon premise in <>science fiction, but it’s a very deliberate and forceful story angle. What drew you to that idea, as opposed to just having Xeng Ral escape his planet for some other offense?
Gene Simmons: My mindset in creating Zipper and, as later named by Tom, Xeng Ral, was to take a page out of Anthem by Ayn Rand and Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Heinlein – a <>fish out of water fable. In Heinlein, the Martian boy comes to Earth and, though a human being himself, doesn't really understand the human condition. Rand's main character "dares" think OF himself and FOR himself – an individual. I'm sure there's a bit of Silver Surfer's personality in there as well.
KA: In the first issue, we see Xeng Ral behaving heroically. He escapes from an oppressive collective. He kills a few drug dealers. But, it’s not so much out of altruism or vigilante justice as self-preservation. Do you see Xeng Ral as a hero in the traditional comic book sense – an altruistic do-gooder – or is he a sort of Ayn-Rand-Objectivist hero?
GS: Zipper is more Rand than not. If you really think about it, even here on Earth, the definition of good and bad depends on the cultural reference point. Indeed, even in our own Westernized culture, there are vast differences between "religious" folk, vegetarians, "Spirituals" and so on. I DO have a Universal sense of Good and Evil. But, that's purely an individual point of view. Zipper is doing the best he can to sort out what it all means, and who HE really is.
KA: The preacher, Dr. Deveroux, seems to know something about Xeng Ral’s planet of origin. But, the religion he preaches and profits by seems more akin to Epicureanism than Christian fundamentalism, though he reminds the reader of Jim Bakker, and the like. Was that intentional, or is that reading too far into it? Feel free to elaborate.
GS: Deveroux, like most self-styled zealots (religious or otherwise), was modeled more on…L. Ron Hubbard. Not that Hubbard was good or bad, if anything he had a very long sci-fi resume. In fact, Hubbard and Damon Knight, it's said, often met to discuss various Utopian Society ideas. Both went off to write their own versions. Hubbard wrote Scientology or Dianetics. Deveroux is my own creation that combined Hubbard and a "culture of fear" – be afraid of the Etherians, he says. Unfortunately, in this case, he's probably right but for the wrong reasons.
KA: As I understand it, you did the plotting on Zipper, while Tom Waltz wrote it based on your ideas. Did you have any interest in personally writing the comic, or did you just prefer to see your ideas produced?
GS: While it's true I came up with "the bible" – the Nether Ether, the Etherians, Zipper, Dr. Deveroux, and the basic origin story – I didn't come up with Zipper's alter ego name. I did not come up with the Earth dynamic, and who Zipper hangs with. I'm a big picture guy. Wordsmiths like Tom can write rings around me, and he does.
KA: You read comics a lot as a child as a sort of escape. Have you always been interested in creating them or pursuing them as a career?
GS: I always loved comic books and even as a young teenager of 14, I created The Astronuts (a sort of Three Stooges in space, meeting aliens and the like) and Omar, the Cliff Dweller (a sort of Turok, Son of Stone meets Joe Kubert's Tor).
KA: For that matter, you’ve worked (or otherwise appeared) in almost every popular media imaginable – books, movies, television, video games, and, already, Kiss comic books. What drives you keep moving and keep expanding like that? Are there any other mediums you’d like to break into?
GS: Not to be too dramatic about all this, but you ain't seen nothing yet.
KA: Xeng Ral’s costume is obviously inspired by the fetish and BDSM scenes. Do you think the title will explore some of the ideas inherent in that lifestyle – of trust, extreme power dynamics, and pushing the limits of sensual experience? Or, is it just a cool vinyl costume with a bunch of metal attached to it?
GS: First, I came up with the title and name. I loved the sound of it. I loved what it inferred in language. I also did research and found no one had trademarked it. It's mine. Then, I applied the Zipper idea to how Ral "zips" through the Nether Ether (as in "woosh"), and – presto! – Zipper. And, I tortured our artists and editors in making sure Zipper had very few muscles to speak of. It didn't make sense for someone who more closely had the consistency of Jell-o to have muscles. I wanted a leaner, long body like the Elongated Man and Mr. Fantastic.
KA: What separates Zipper and the rest of the titles from Simmons Comic Group from the tons of Kiss comics that have come before?
GS: That's a tough one. This one's up the fans. But tone has a lot to do with it. We are dealing with big, cosmic landscapes and talking about small, human issues. It’s not a very sexy book. This ain't Dominatrix (one of our other books).
KA: Obviously, you want everyone to enjoy Zipper and be entertained by it, but do you feel like there are any larger themes the reader should understand? Are you trying to say anything broader, or do you want it to just be escapist action?
GS: This is escapist, as are most comic books. But, I do want to delve into some deeper notions about what an individual is and what good and bad are. We will find out together.
KA: Do you have any parting words for the readers of Mania.com?
GS: Check out www.genesimmons.com and thanks for reading.

A few of Gene Simmons' favorite things
Fortune's Eugenia Levenson sits down with the Kiss frontman and co-founder of Simmons Abramson Marketing, and finds out what he likes best about the celeb life.
ByEugenia Levenson, Fortune reporter
October 12 2007: 7:25 AM EDT
(Fortune Magazine) -- Yes, Kiss is still around - and Gene Simmons will tell you it's bigger than ever. That's because Simmons, who co-owns the trademark with bandmate Paul Stanley, estimates that he has licensed more than 3,000 Kiss products that run the gamut from rock & roll (coffins, condoms) to suburban-dad tame (Hasbro Toothtunes toothbrushes, coffeehouses).
He's also turned his penchant for promotion, which fueled the band's fire-breathing success in the 1970s, into a second act: marketing. Clients include the Indy Racing League, for which Simmons crafted the slogan "I am Indy."
 Then there's the Gene brand: His A&E reality show, "Gene Simmons: Family Jewels," is currently taping its third season. All those commitments keep Simmons on the road for almost half the year, and that's when the band isn't touring. We caught up with the rocker in New York City to talk travel.
Days on the road
About 180. We may tour next year, and that'll take ten months. But I go to all the IndyCar races and travel anywhere that includes the TV show.
Favorite way to fly
Overseas airlines. They treat you like a king. Singapore Airlines is just terrific.
Full service
At LAX, two blocks away from the airport, there's this secret thing. I drive up to a place, a guy gets in, I drive to United or American or wherever, and he takes the car. No parking, no torture. When I land, I make the phone call. Car drives up, I get in and drive off. It's called Airport Valet. It's my favorite thing.
Highs or lows
I like a clean bed and a clean bathroom. The rest of the accouterments I don't really care about. I've stayed at Motel 6, and they do a good job for the price. I used to like the Plaza Hotel in New York, and they seemed to like me because every time I went they gave me a suite and a butler. But I could go to Holiday Inn, and there'd be a party, and you'd have the time of your life. I'm what it's about.
Sweet spot
I still like the Carnegie Deli in New York, showing up at 2 A.M. and doing sinful things like having a hot pastrami sandwich, lean, extra mustard, pickle. Of course, you have nightmares from hell, but that's the price.
Best tool
I don't carry my computer, ever. Every hotel has them. And I refuse to get a CrackBerry. I talk on the phone. People want access to me, and it makes the deals go down faster. I have a two- or three-year-old Razr. Terrific reception.
Celebrity perks
Chicks. And access. Celebrity gets the door open. You can't create business, but celebrity gives you access to people because they're curious about you.
 Gene Simmons’
Dominatrix: Lesson #1
Writer: Sean Taylor
Artist: Flavio Hoffe
Cover: Alex Garner
Letters: Neil Uyetake
Editors: Chris Ryall and Tom Waltz
Published by The Gene Simmons Comics Group and IDW, 22 pages for $3.99
One of the very cool things about reviewing indies is that you occasionally get some kick-ass free swag. In this case, after I reviewed Zipper #1, Tom Waltz and the guys at IDW sent me a bunch more stuff to review, which is sort of par for the course but which is also one of the better perks of doing this job. But this particular box o’ swag rocked harder than most because it had a copy of Gene Simmons’s new comic, Dominatrix—Lesson 1. And it wasn’t just any copy. It was a variant cover edition, signed by none other than Gene Simmons himself. People, that was an incredibly righteous thing for those guys to send over, and not just because I happen to be a pretty big fan of KISS. Well, not so much the face-painting aspect of the group, but I like their music a lot and have since I was a kid. As a matter of fact, I even took said signed copy to work and showed it around to my fellow cubicle-dwellers, a thing which I pretty much NEVER do because, let’s face it, it’s not at all easy to be taken seriously as an engineer when you’re a history major like I am, and playing show-and-tell with your comic collection typically doesn’t help around the office. But this time I made an exception because... well, if you can’t figure out why, then I doubt I can help you.
With all of that in mind, I feel like I ought to admit up front that Dominatrix is not my normal thing. After all, Mr. Simmons described his book as “T&A meets the CIA” in IDW’s promo literature, whereas I tend to go for more of the pseudo-intellectual stuff—and Danger Girl. But I’ll say this about Dominatrix: it’s a Hell of a lot smarter than I thought it would be. I was expecting a nonsensical Brian Pulido-esque boobathon, but in fact, this is a story that’s entirely sensible, well-crafted, and basically a heck of a lot of fun right from the start. And yeah, this book has its share of tits and ass, but it’s not gratuitous. It’s not like Wonder Woman dressing up in a bathing suit to go fight crime. Instead, our heroine is an actual dominatrix who gets caught up in something scary that she doesn’t understand. And since she’s working at the time of the Event, well, what did you think she was gonna be wearing?
Look, I like boobs as much as the next guy, but they’re a whole lot more fun when they make sense in the story. Right? I mean, you can see that, can’t you?
If there’s one problem with this book, it’s the figure work. Although the coloring and printing are gorgeous throughout, the figures get a little stiff in some of the medium-long shots. Don’t get me wrong: artist Flavio Hoffe does a nice job on most of his work here, especially on the closer shots, but when he gets to an establishing shot—or basically anything with a full figure in motion—you can see him struggling to keep the characters from looking like contortionists. It’s hardly a fatal error, and it’s nicely masked by the colors, but it’s there, and this is a review, so I’m pointing it out.
But I wouldn’t let that stop you from buying this book if you happen to want to read about kick-ass dominatrixes in take-over-the-world conspiracy stories. And this is a cool story, sort of reminiscent of the movie They Live but with a hot chick in the Rowdy Roddy Piper role, and I’m intrigued to see what happens next. Honestly, the number of comics that I actually buy based on review copies that I’m sent is very, very close to zero percent, but in this case I think I’m gonna make an exception just because I happened to enjoy this book a whole bunch. I really want to know what’s going on. And hey, if that’s not a ringing endorsement, then I don’t know what is.

Gene Simmons Zipper #1
by Corrina Lawson
www.sequentialtart.com
Grade: 8
Zipper is a character created by rock star Gene Simmons. At first on hearing about the comic, I worried it would be something like that live-action Kiss movie I saw years ago. (Yes, I'm that old.) But, happily for readers, that's not the case at all, as the comic is readable, interesting, and has incredible art.
The title character is an alien from a communal society who wants to be an individual. What I liked most about the sequences on his home planet is the the distress of the society is very, very real. Whether it's true or not, that society is utterly convinced individuality will destroy it. The title character escapes from being pulled back into the worldmind by using a portal from his homeworld to ours but not without first picking up a battlesuit that becomes a black leather bodysuit with many, many zippers. It sounds silly. The artwork makes it look very cool.
Once Zipper reaches our homeworld, there's some "fish out of water" scenes put to good effect — this alien is really alien and his confusion and interpretation of human actions is funny and interesting and, when threatened, quite bloody.
In short, it's a comic with action, depth and great artwork.
