Welcome back to The Rundown, our daily breakdown on comic news stories we missed from the previous day. Have a link to share? Email our team at either david@multiversitycomics.com or brian@multiversitycomics.com.

– X-Men: Days of Future Past has had pretty great viral marketing so far, but this 25 Moments site is pretty amazing. It walks people through the 25 moments that led to the epic showdown between humanity and mutants, and it’s cool getting an idea of what roles characters like Blink and Bishop play before we get into the film. If you’re excited for the film, don’t miss it.

– Big congrats to Kieron Gillen and Jamie McKelvie for their GLAAD Award for “Outstanding Comic Book”, but come on, can we give McKelvie a bit of credit? Kind of sad to just see Gillen credited.

– Remember that part in “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” where Cap was writing down the Troubleman soundtrack on things to try now that he’s been unthawed? That list was different in every country, and a user on Tumblr collected all of those for your viewing pleasure. Thanks Lucia!

– Congrats to both Ulli Lust and Gene Luen Yang for their very well deserved L.A. Times Book Prizes! Lust won the Graphic Novel/Comics prize for his GN “Today is the Last Day of the Rest of Your Life”, while Yang won the Young Adult category against four prose novels for his “Boxers & Saints” books. I love, love, love the latter, and it makes me happy for it to get some serious mainstream love like this.

– You should read this piece by Devin Faraci about the glut of superhero movies at movie theaters. It’s pretty brilliant.

– Harrison Ford gives the best Reddit AMA answer ever. And it’s not close.

– In case you ever wanted to see a llama dressed as Batman, you can now see that. FINALLY.
