For comedy nerds/completists/collectors, a massive new collector’s box set featuring the entire Weird Al Yankovic catalog. This will include a brand new album, exclusive to the set, that has unreleased tracks and rarities from Yankovic’s own vault.

Called Medium Rarities, it includes songs from the beginning of Weird Al’s career to present day. Here’s a great promo complete with a Super Mario Bros. style game with Weird Al in it showing what’s on the album.

The Squeeze Box: The Complete Works of “Weird Al” Yankovic costs $475 and is only available in limited quantities. We’re guessing the limited run has something to do with the box set being in the shape of an accordion.

Pre-order it here and get it on November 24th this year.

Looks like Bill Hicks won’t be the only comedian making posthumous releases this year.

The estate of George Carlin is revamping the legendary comedian’s website and will bring rare and unreleased tracks from Carlin performances with it.

The GeorgeCarlin.com relaunch is scheduled for this Fri. Mar. 27th. From the sounds of it as well as all the work George’s daughter Kelly Carlin has done in his honor, that it might be a digital museum of sorts not unlike the revamped MitchHedberg.net.

Maybe there will be a bit about his last set being cut from Letterman? We’re not sure, but we’re guessing Bill talked about that on stage at some point before he passed away.

Of all the things that Comedy Dynamics is doing with the Bill Hicks catalog including a theatrical release of one his specials, a brand new album of unreleased tracks from Hicks has to be one that peaks the interests of all, whether they be Hicks fans or skeptics.

The album is set for release on Oct. 27th and there are no details as to what exactly will be on it, but we’d guess it’s going to be a compilation of a number of Hicks’ sets like the few compilation albums that have been released over the last several years.

Whatever it ends up being, we all have all Spring and Summer long to ponder and guess what it might be.

Curt Neill’s Untitled Screenplays Coming Out as Book July 1st

Perigee Books has made a great move in compiling Untitled Screenplays, a blog by Curt Neill that features pages from untitled screenplays that are absurd, funny, and possibly fit better as a “lost scene” than anything else, into a book.

Entitled This Movie Will Require Dinosaurs, its release is set for July 1st and you can and should pre-order it now.
