Gamers have all played in games that were less than we wanted them to be. It’s easy to get the wrong mix of players at the table where they fail to listen to one another and support each other’s fun. The GM’s energy may be low. I’ve even seen where the entire group just doesn’t […]

We’ve got some previews for you of this week’s two Red 5 comics – Atomic Robo and the Shadow from Beyond Time #4 and We Kill Monsters #2! Having read both of the upcoming books, I can definitely say that you should pick both up. There’s really nothing more to say about Atomic Robo that […]
As I write, it is Saturday morning at GenCon. Updating the blog has proven a bit more difficult than I’d like. The hotel doesn’t have free wifi and I’m entirely too cheap to spend $13/day for access. Strange that other hotels in the chain provide interwebs, but not Indy? Suck it, Embassy Suites! So updates […]
The first game I played at GenCon was out-freakin’-standing. The Podge Cast’s Luke Meyer ran five of us through a new scenario of his design for White Wolf’s Hunter: The Vigil. So much fun. The game opens as five hunters, the player characters, return to their safe house in the country complete with a captured […]
Holy crap! The true mastermind behind DC’s huge event BLACKEST NIGHT has been revealed and, if you’re a long time Green Lantern fan, it probably won’t come as much of a surprise, but it is a pretty cool reveal. To avoid spoilers, I’m going to show the reveal after the jump! However, what I can […]
After securing my badge, I joined up with a whole bunch of folks for lunch. A.David Pinilla and both of his wives (His man-bride Luke Meyer and David’s lady wife as well), Rich, James, Jake, and the much hated Holmberg. It was a bit loud for much conversation, but we did manage to coordinate some […]
Like an idiot, I didn’t get my registration in on time. Thus I am in the line for on-site registration. Line seems to Ben moving well, but word is that it’s a 2 hour wait. Here’s hoping I don’t get too sunburned.
I woke at five o’clock this morning in the hopes that I’d be able to catch an earlier flight. I’m booked on a one o’clock flight that would get me to Indy around four. While my work schedule required that undesirable booking at first, I was later able to manipulate the calendar in my favor. […]
You know, it’s almost a religious experience nowadays to walk into a comic book store and, up on the shelves, see Amazing Spider- Man #1, Amazing Fantasy #15, and Incredible Hulk #1. But that’s exactly what happened to me this morning when I walked into Heroes and Villains Comics in Hampton, VA. See, Heroes and […]
