With the release in two weeks of my new book, Was Superman a Spy? and Other Comic Book Legends Revealed<\/em> (see the sidebar to pre-order a copy!), I thought it would be neat to have a site here (and at Sports Legends Revealed<\/a>) where I can discuss other legends revealed!<\/p>\n

The way this will work is that each week day I will feature three legends from a different part of the world of entertainment. <\/p>\n

On Mondays<\/strong>, it is a grab bag. You might have Legends about Musicals, Legends about Board Games, Legends about Video Games, Legends about Plays, Legends about Toys, Legends about Novels, Legends about Wrestling, basically any area of entertainment that is not covered on the other four days of the week.<\/p>\n

On Tuesdays<\/strong>, TV Legends are featured.<\/p>\n

On Wednesdays<\/strong>, Music Legends are featured.<\/p>\n

On Thursdays<\/strong>, Comic Book Legends are featured (through a link to my comic blog, Comics Should Be Good<\/a>, where the comic book legends are hosted).<\/p>\n

On Fridays<\/strong>, Movie Legends are featured.<\/p>\n

The web site, Snopes.com<\/a>, is a great reference site for legends. Be sure to check out their various entertainment legends, because I won’t be featuring any legends that were featured there first (as that would be pretty lame, wouldn’t it?). <\/p>\n

Anyhow, I hope you enjoy the site!<\/p>\n

You can always reach me at bcronin@legendsrevealed.com to suggest legends to be featured or for any other reason, really.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
