Send in the Clowns

Well, that was fun. The best Comic-Con coverage on the Web dominated the early part of this week, usurped only slightly by a beloved, departing industry relative and the latest advances in celebrity-ish reproductive science. It doesn't get much more diverse that this, and the lightning round is ready for your review after the jump. Have a great weekend!

· Just when you thought the ab-induced Twilight panic couldn't get any madder, Summit went and booted one of its original stars. Surprise! She was pissed.

· We hit the Lost beat pretty hard, catching up with Elizabeth Mitchell, liveblogging the series' panel discussion and scanning every last bit of evidence we could find for clues to the next season.

· If you didn't get enough Iron Man from Robert Downey Jr. and Jon Favreau or Scarlett Johansson on her own, there's always the liveblog.

· More Comic-Con diversions included never-before-seen Thundercats concept art, a guided photo tour of the madness, and a handy Con scoreboard for those of you keeping track at home.

· We judged some of the scene's most tremendous couture, including Pedobear, Blanka, Boba Fett and the saddest Comic-Con mascot ever.

· Critically loathed. Diva pariah. Box-office sensation. You know who you are.

· Judd Apatow, Ang Lee, Kristen Bell, Vera Farmiga, Scott Porter and the embattled directors of The Princess and the Frog all took some time to chat with us.

· This week's Two-Minute Verdicts were issued to Hot Tub Time Machine, The Fantastic Mr. Fox, A Serious Man, Spartacus: Blood and Sand and Val Kilmer's instant B-classic Streets of Blood. Ben Stiller's mock-industrial video welcoming himself to Fox is going to a higher court on appeal.

· This Jeff Gaspin guy is nice and everything, but we're really, really, really going to miss Ben Silverman.

· Fox's More to Love prompted the question of whether it hurt its contestants more than it helped them.

· Now that Bachelorette Jillian has found her man, it was time to go find a celebrity lookalike to make a baby with!

· After absorbing as many barbs as she could during her Comedy Central roast, Joan Rivers randomly lashed out at Sacramento morning show hosts and Jay Leno. Like they'd have wanted it any other way
