A real man of letters: David Letterman is the subject of a new comic book about his life: "FAME: David Letterman." The book, released March 13, is written by CW Cooke and art by Noumier Tawilah.

"Letterman's story is a pretty amazing one, and yes we do address the late-night wars in this comic book, I think they were an important part of television history," publisher Darren G. Davis said.

To order the comic book in print go to bit.ly/ZDS9pR. Digital copies also are available for $1.99 through your e-reader from iTunes, Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Kobo, ComiXology, Google Books, DriveThru Comics, Wowio, iVerse and more.

On the show: Pitbull, featuring Christina Aguilera, and Ke$ha will perform at "Nickelodeon's Kids' Choice Awards" at 8 p.m. Saturday.

Originating from USC's Galen Center, both artists join previously announced host Josh Duhamel at the 26th annual event where kids rule and honor their favorites from the worlds of film, music, sports and television.

Kids can cast their votes until March 23 in 22 categories across all of Nickelodeon's digital outlets, including Nick.com, Nick Mobile app as well as Nickelodeon's Facebook page and Twitter feed.

Holy movie marathon!: ABC Family will hold a two-day "Batman" marathon that will include five movies. The marathon starts with "Batman Forever" at 1 p.m. April 6 and ends with "Batman Begins" at 8 p.m. April 7.

Back to work: The Online Network (TOLN) will debut "All My Children" and "One Life to Live" on April 29. Both shows were canceled by ABC after decades of being on the air.

New, 30-minute episodes of "All My Children" and "One Life to Live" will be available to stream online weekdays in HD via the free Hulu service and to the millions of Hulu Plus subscribers watching on connected TVs, mobile phones, tablets and PCs. In addition, the iTunes Store will offer both series via iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, Apple TV and Mac and PC.

Production began on "All My Children" Feb. 25, and shooting started March 18 on "One Life to Live." Both series are filmed in Stamford, Conn.
