WAKANDA BANGS

WAKANDA BANGS THE DRUMS OF WAR IN THE ULTIMATE BLACK PANTHER #1 TRAILER

Bryan Hill and Stefano Caselli’s ULTIMATE BLACK PANTHER #1 arrives on February 7.

Spinning out of Jonathan Hickman and Bryan Hitch’s Ultimate Invasion, it’s the dawn of a new ULTIMATE UNIVERSE and with it comes an all-new ULTIMATE BLACK PANTHER series from the creative minds of Bryan Hill (Blade, Killmonger) and Stefano Caselli (X-Men Red, Avengers).

Hitting stands in February, this bold new take on Black Panther sees the legendary nation of Wakanda still isolated and kept secret from the world at large. When Khonshu and Ra – the force known together as Moon Knight – seek to expand their brutal control of the continent of Africa, Black Panther is forced to take his people out of the shadows for the first time! In addition to T’Challa, readers will also meet new Ultimate versions of Okoye, Shuri, Killmonger, Storm, and more in this rousing saga of duty, sacrifice, and love. Fans can get the first glimpse at the cast bracing themselves for war in the all-new ULTIMATE BLACK PANTHER trailer, featuring never-before-seen artwork.

“I was invigorated by this opportunity because in addition to my immense respect for Jonathan Hickman’s detailed storytelling, the idea of shepherding this bold new take on Black Panther in this event gives me a platform to do the kind of broad, epic, storytelling I’ve always wanted to do in comics,” Hill said.

“My influences range from the history of BLACK PANTHER comics to Ryan Coogler’s incredible work with the recent films, to Frank Herbert’s worldbuilding capacity of Dune,” he added. “This is something people won’t expect, in the best of ways, and full credit to Marvel and editors Wil Moss and Michelle Marchese for bringing this creative possibility to me.”

Following next month’s ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN, ULTIMATE BLACK PANTHER will be the second launch in Marvel’s new Ultimate line. The saga began with the Maker, one of the last survivors of the old Ultimate Universe, travelling back in time on a parallel Earth to create a world without heroes. He succeeded and ruled this world in secret through various global factions. Now, he’s vanished, and a quiet war has broken out across the planet to shape what will happen to his kingdom. Some want to control the world. Some want to free it. After discovering the dark truth, a young Tony Stark embarks on a bold mission to make things right. Meanwhile, Wakanda stirs, pressured from internal and external forces to take its rightful place on the global stage… Filled with modern takes on classic Marvel ideas and characters, the new Ultimate Universe is ripe for rich storytelling and a perfect evolution of the Ultimate brand. See it grow and develop in upcoming issues of ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN, ULTIMATE BLACK PANTHER, and March’s ULTIMATE X-MEN along with more Ultimate titles launching in the months ahead.

Check out some of the covers of ULTIMATE BLACK PANTHER #1 along with the ULTIMATE BLACK PANTHER #2 cover and preorder the series at your local comic shop today! For more information, visit Marvel.com.

Jobsnap

Revolutionizing the Home Services Landscape in the Gig Economy Era

Discover the app that’s redefining convenience, community, and quality in home services

In a world where the gig economy is swiftly redefining the workforce, a new player, JobSnap, is making waves in the home service industry. Founded by James Albis, a seasoned entrepreneur with a flair for innovative solutions, JobSnap is more than just an app – it’s a community builder.

Transforming Home Services
JobSnap stands out in the evolving gig economy as a pioneering platform in the home service sector. The new app transcends the typical app functionality to become a cornerstone of community engagement. It facilitates a seamless connection between homeowners in need of services and a diverse array of local contractors and gig workers, responding to the increasing demand for efficient, reliable home services. This platform uniquely balances the urgency of modern homeowners for quick and dependable service with the need of service providers for fair, transparent, and cost-effective client connections.

The core of JobSnap’s innovation lies in its focus on building lasting relationships rather than mere transactions. Homeowners are relieved of the burden of sifting through endless listings and reviews, as JobSnap offers a selection of professionals with verified skills and a history of reliability. For the service providers, JobSnap is more than a gateway to jobs; it’s a pathway to suitable, fulfilling work opportunities. This platform removes traditional barriers like excessive lead fees and complex marketing, allowing professionals to concentrate on delivering exceptional service. JobSnap fosters a community where feedback is encouraged and quality service is the norm, reshaping the home service industry into a more accessible, equitable, and efficient space.

Uplifting Service Providers
JobSnap’s innovative strategy is rooted in a deep commitment to empowering contractors and gig workers. This empowerment is vividly illustrated by the elimination of costly lead fees, which often burden service providers on other platforms. By removing these financial barriers, JobSnap not only enables contractors to conserve resources but also ensures they have direct access to numerous local job opportunities. This approach democratizes the marketplace, leveling the playing field for both emerging and established service providers.

The essence of JobSnap’s impact is its ability to foster a community among its users. Where many digital platforms place service providers in competitive isolation, JobSnap reverses this trend, creating an environment of collaboration, mutual support, and shared progress. The founders envision a platform where service providers coalesce not just as individuals seeking work, but as members of a larger, interconnected community striving for collective success. Beyond job connections, JobSnap nurtures an environment where providers can exchange insights, benefit from each other’s experiences, and collectively elevate industry standards. This not only enhances the individual experiences of service providers but also augments the overall quality of service available to homeowners.

Streamlining Communication
At the heart of JobSnap’s innovation in the home services industry is its ‘Snap and Post’ feature. This tool represents a significant advance in how service providers and homeowners connect, offering a user-friendly method that pivots away from the traditional text-heavy request formats. Homeowners can quickly capture and upload images to detail their service needs, making the app more accessible and significantly reducing the potential for miscommunications that often arise from text descriptions. This visual approach allows homeowners to effectively convey their requirements, while service providers get a clearer picture of the job scope before communication even begins.

JobSnap, through the ‘Snap and Post’ pioneering feature, not only improves the process of service procurement but also firmly establishes itself as a leader in the gig economy, setting new standards for service industry applications.

A Boon for Homeowners
JobSnap emerges as a trusted, transparent solution for homeowners navigating the complex world of local service procurement. The platform is thoughtfully designed to streamline the often-daunting process of finding skilled professionals for various home projects. Recognizing the common challenges faced by homeowners – the time and effort involved in searching, vetting, and communicating with contractors – JobSnap offers a simplified yet comprehensive approach to service requests.

The intuitive design of the JobSnap app transcends mere functionality; it’s an embodiment of user-friendly experience. Homeowners can effortlessly navigate through the platform, utilizing the innovative ‘Snap and Post’ feature to quickly express their service needs visually. This method not only expedites the process but also fosters clarity and understanding between homeowners and service providers. The JobSnap app is free for homeowners, ensuring easy access and convenience in finding trusted local service providers. JobSnap’s commitment to transparency is further demonstrated in its detailed provider profiles, featuring reviews and ratings. These profiles empower homeowners to make informed decisions based on proven competence and trustworthiness. The result is a confident, informed hiring process, nurturing trust and satisfaction in the homeowner-service provider dynamic.

Competitive Edge and Financial Accessibility
JobSnap distinguishes itself in the competitive landscape of home service platforms by offering an affordable subscription model alongside its focus on localized, real-time engagement. This dual approach caters to the immediate needs of its users and shows a deep understanding of the dynamic relationship between service providers and homeowners. In contrast to other platforms that often aim for a broader, less personalized market reach, JobSnap emphasizes local community engagement, fostering closer and more responsive connections between users. This focus on localized service enhances real-time interactions and delivery, aligning perfectly with the contemporary demand for rapid, customized services.

Moreover, JobSnap addresses a critical industry pain point: financial accessibility. The platform’s straightforward subscription model stands out in an industry often characterized by fluctuating costs and hidden charges. By offering a clear, predictable fee structure, JobSnap brings a sense of stability and simplicity to financial planning for service providers. This transparency not only builds trust but also enables smaller contractors and gig workers to engage in the market without worrying about unexpected expenses. For service providers, JobSnap offers an affordable subscription model at just $97 per month, making it an economically viable platform for contractors and gig workers. The combination of these strategic approaches — localized engagement and transparent pricing — positions JobSnap as a leader in the home services sector, marking it as a champion of clarity, community focus, and user-centric innovation.

Aligning with the Gig Economy
In an era where the gig economy is not just growing but thriving, JobSnap stands as an indispensable tool, perfectly aligning with the needs of both service providers and homeowners. Its strategic focus on fostering direct connections, facilitating efficient communication, and nurturing community engagement elevates it from being a mere digital application to a pivotal catalyst in the home service marketplace. JobSnap’s approach is not just about providing a platform for transactions; it’s about creating a more interconnected, streamlined, and equitable ecosystem where every interaction adds value and fosters trust.

The essence of JobSnap lies in its ability to adapt to and indeed, anticipate, the nuances of the gig economy. For service providers, it offers a gateway to a broad spectrum of opportunities, breaking down the traditional barriers of entry into the market and providing a platform where their skills can be matched with the right clients efficiently. For homeowners, it’s a portal to a world of reliable, vetted service options, all available with the simple click of a button. The app’s intuitive design and user-centric features mean that finding or offering services is no longer a chore, but a convenient, enjoyable experience.

Furthermore, JobSnap’s commitment to community engagement is a breath of fresh air in an increasingly digital world. It recognizes that at the heart of every service transaction is a human connection. By prioritizing this aspect, JobSnap doesn’t just facilitate services; it fosters relationships, contributing to the growth and sustainability of local communities.

Now available for download on both the iTunes App Store and Google Play Store, JobSnap is poised to revolutionize the home services market. It stands as a testament to how technology, when thoughtfully applied, can enhance our daily lives and work. For anyone navigating the ever-expanding realm of gig work, JobSnap is not just a tool; it’s a partner in achieving efficiency, connectivity, and success in the modern service marketplace.

OAKLEY – MAX FEARLIGHT

Oakley, as the brand, unveils an updated brand aesthetic and creative point of view with the launch of Future Genesis. It all begins with two short films that transport viewers back into the world first created in Oakley’s original 1992 film, Max Fearlight, before introducing the brand’s new protagonist.

With the launch of Future Genesis, Oakley is drawing from the principles of yesterday to write the next chapter with a better tomorrow in mind. This foundational change will trigger an updated brand aesthetic and creative point of view that will inform both its storytelling and iconic product innovations personified by Maxine Fearlight, the newest protagonist for Oakley.

The two short films showcase the interconnectedness between past and future while leaning into the brand’s protopian position, while spotlighting a father and a daughter. The father – Max Fearlight – represents the past and he is taken on a journey of transformation through the introduction of the newest protagonist for the brand, the daughter – Maxine Fearlight. Maxine is set on creating her own legacy and represents the dream of a protopian future for the brand.

Products featured within the short films also serve a greater purpose. Max is seen wearing Medusa, a legacy product reimagined as a digital concept to fit his pursuits in a virtual world. The digital world also informs the real, with the 13:11 sunglasses inspired by those Maxine wears in the trailers, becoming a reality and launching in 2024.

These short films are just the beginning as more are dropping in the coming years to mark the brand’s 50th Anniversary.

Explore Future Genesis Immersive Platform on project2075.com starting December 12th at 12 PM ET.

Ferrari Testa Rossa J

The Little Car Company, manufacturers of the limited edition 75% scale Ferrari Testa Rossa J, has unveiled its all-new display at Harrods, one of the world’s foremost luxury department stores. In partnership with Harrods, The Little Car Company has created an immersive display of the Ferrari Testa Rossa J, offering shoppers the unique opportunity to see the car up close.

Situated in the Technology Hall on the fifth floor of Harrods, the display installation presents the Testa Rossa J at its best. The car is displayed on an angled plinth to offer a dynamic view of the scaled, electrified classic. Exhibited in a special historic livery of Blu Nart and Bianco Cervino, the Testa Rossa J features the quintessential Ferrari Rosso Corsa red exterior and is complemented by an elegant Beige Tradizione leather and tone-on-tone stitched interior.

Customers also have the opportunity to sample the extensive customisation possibilities that come with owning a Ferrari Testa Rossa J. Behind the display is an immersive sample pod, which allows customers to view a selection of leathers and paints, offering a glimpse of the array of potential colour schemes and combinations available.

Built in partnership with Ferrari Classiche, only 299 Ferrari Testa Rossa Js will ever be built, and each example will be developed and handcrafted using the original drawings held by the team at Maranello.

A celebration of one of motorsport’s most iconic racers, the Ferrari Testa Rossa J is the result of extensive research and design, notably into the glorious liveries that adorned the 250 Testa Rossa throughout its racing history. This research has fed into the personalisation process that comes with owning a Testa Rossa J, with 14 historic liveries, 53 bodywork colours and a range of racing liveries all available to choose from.

Ben Hedley, CEO of The Little Car Company, said: “The Ferrari Testa Rossa J celebrates history, legacy and the very best of craftsmanship, and we believe that it is only right for it to be displayed in one of the world’s most prestigious and iconic luxury department stores. The expansion of our presence at Harrods is testament to the ever-growing strength of our relationship, and the alignment of our shared values in creating an exciting and immersive experience for shoppers and customers.

“Our Ferrari Testa Rossa J display will give shoppers the unique opportunity to see the car in all its resplendent glory, showcasing its extraordinary attention to detail and the expert craftsmanship that lovingly goes into each vehicle.”

Shoppers at Harrods will be able to enquire with a member of the sales team on site about reserving their bespoke Ferrari Testa Rossa J.

The collaboration between The Little Car Company and Ferrari has enabled a faithful and accurate reimagining of one of motorsport’s most legendary cars. The body of the Testa Rossa J, made of hand-formed aluminium, goes through the exact same process as the original, while the steering and suspension geometry have both been painstakingly replicated. The steering wheel itself is supplied by Nardi, makers of the original steering wheel.

Delicate additions also provide a slice of modernity to the Testa Rossa J, with pedals taken from the F8 Tributo, and Pirelli tyres fitted on the handmade 12-inch wire wheels. In the cockpit, repurposed instruments adorn the dash, with battery temperature and charge level dials providing important driving information, while a delightfully designed Manettino, inspired by the Ferrari 812 Superfast, enables the driver to select from a range of driving modes.

Four driving modes are available, catering for drives of all ages and abilities:

Novice mode: 1kW / 24km/h
Comfort mode: 4kW / 40km/h
Sport mode: 10kW / 80km/h
Race mode: 12kW / 80km/h

Three batteries, all located at the front of the car, power the electric engine and provide approximately 90km of range, depending on driving style.

HAPPY99 + REEBOK

Happy99 Introduces 90s Gaming & Anime to Reebok’s Iconic Instapump Fury 95 Sneaker, December 15

In 2018, designers Nathalie Nguyen and Dominic Lopez posted a picture of a virtual sneaker concept on Instagram under the brand “Happy99”. Soon after, a number of stylists reached out, looking to acquire the shoes for their celebrity clientele. Just over a year later, what started as a digital “passion project between two long-distance artists and designers” is making headway in a new reality of footwear and apparel.

“When we first started “H99”, we originally used the page to showcase our own 3D shoe concepts, so finally being able to make our first shoe is really full circle for us,” said Happy99 Co-Founder, Dominic Lopez.

Presented in two distinct colorways – Purple/Midnight/Earth (100073105) and Boulder Grey/Mint (100073106) – the Happy99 x Reebok Instapump Fury leverages a diverse blend of fabrics, bold color pops, and earth tones to draw inspiration from ‘90s video games and anime. Additional design elements include a translucent Pump button and bladder, a Cordura/suede/synethetic mixed material upper, graphic nylon and ripstop gaiter, custom graphic sockliner, an OG Fury carbon footplate, and branding nods throughout.

“We love the icon-ism of Fury in general, from its popularity in cult classic moments to its anime collabs and fun cameos,” continued Lopez. “From a design perspective, the silhouette’s sharpness combined with the bubbly facade of the Pump bladder is such a cool juxtaposition. And the option to cover with the gaiter gives it some height and a nice added layer of texture.”

“We’re big fans of doll culture and often make miniature clothes and shoes for dolls to shoot for promo,” concluded Happy99 Co-Founder, Nathalie Nguyen. “Usually we work with 1/3 and 1/6 scale dolls but for this project we decided to 3D print a life-sized doll (1/1 scale), to shoot it in the wild in our neighborhood -Chinatown, NYC.”

The Happy99 x Reebok Instapump Fury ($230) is available December 15 exclusively from Happy99.online, followed by a wider global release from Reebok.com and select fashion retailers on December 22.
