Foo Fighters vs The X-Men

Well it only took a couple of weeks for me to be able to write a blog about two of my favourite things - rock and comic books.

This morning, I read via Rolling Stone online that the Foo Fighters are suing Marvel Comics for copyright infringement. It seems that Mighty Marvel and a few others forgot to ask permission to use music from the Foos in the trailer for the brand new animated series “Wolverine and the X-Men”. As we all know, copyright is a big deal, especially to artists. I wonder how this will all work out, but if Marvel didn’t ask the Foos for their music, I think Dave Grohl and co. have a right to be ticked.

Take a look at the trailer below to see what the hubbub is all about:

Todays bonus code is: WOLVERINE 

By the way, if you want a chance to win tickets to see Foo Fighters and Against Me! when they hit Air Canada Centre in a few weeks, make sure you check out the Jack Nation Countdown on City TV, this Saturday afternoon at 4.
