Massive Dynamic Allied With Credit Dauphine???

The premise of Massive Dynamic as a global corporation with vast ties to just about everything just cries out "BAD GUY", but I was holding out hope (and I still am) that there may be a sliver of good within Massive Dynamic, but with the latest ad from the Fringe comic book tie in, that hypothesis lies in doubt.

In the comic book there is an advertisement for Massive Dynamic that is brought to us by "MD Outdoors" and "Credit Dauphine". You can find the reference in the above picture right under the "M" in Massive Dynamic.

I haven't been able to dig up anything on MD Outdoors, but Credit Dauphine is a direct tie in to the front organization of SD-6, the covert criminal organization that is destroyed by Sydney Bristol in another of J.J Abrams hit shows, Alias. So, with this new information in hand, it becomes clear that Massive Dynamic is certainly up to no good. Just how deep their machinations go waits to be seen. What do you think?

New York Times Article About FRINGE

The "Newspaper of Record", The New York Times is showing our favorite new show some love with a column written on Friday that paints a pretty positive light on the series. The article also contains some new comments from J.J. Abrams. Check it out here.

JJ Abrams = Massive Dynamic

What is this we have here? J.J. Abrams has left us a little mystery on the Fringe Division site.

When you get to the site the sub title says;

Fringe Division: The Official Site of the Creative Team Behind The New Fox TV
Show "Fringe"
Sponsored by J.J. Abrams

Then when you scroll over the "Sponsored by J.J. Abrams" text it changes to;

Fringe Division: The Official Site of the Creative Team Behind The New Fox TV
Show "Fringe"
Sponsored by Massive Dynamic

If that weren't enough of a teaser take a look at the code that makes this little change happen.

"hansochange" - Do I detect a bit of a cross refrence? What do you make of this?
