G.I. Joe: Renegades and Transformers: Prime cause ratings explosion for The Hub

Big thanks as always to kennywr22 for digging up all of this great info.  He found a nice article on how the ratings measured up for The Hub last weekend with the debuts of Transformers: Prime and G.I. Joe: Renegades.  I think the term “pretty damn good” applies here.
According to this article, not only did the debut of these two new programs drive ratings up triple digits for the fledgling network, but they also drove the Hub to lead all of kids cable networks in co-viewing.  Click the “Read the rest of this entry” link below for the full run down:

Some awesome Rise of Cobra concept art from Facebook game

Stalwart G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra fans (who are probably few and far between) likely remember the Facebook game that  came out around the release of the film.  It involved facing off one-on-one against another opponent, picking your trooper, and upgrading their equipment as you fight others and increase your experience.
It wasn’t the most interesting or captivating game, but it provided a look at some interesting artwork as the game progressed and you upgraded your uniform.
Well, the artist for this Facebook game, Jason Badower has a blog, and way back in January posted some of the artwork that was used in the Facebook game.  A lot of it is stuff I hadn’t seen before, and even the stuff that was seen in the game is interesting to see in a different context.
Check out Jason’s excellent blog right here, and the mirrored images are hosted below.
