When was the last time you saw a children’s novel that had a cover like this? Skulduggery Pleasant: Mortal Coil is due out this September in jolly ol’ England. If you haven’t been reading this series, read my reviews for books three and four…and just buy the damn books. Thank me later. Image from writer […]
In our “Free Comic Book Day” episode of Funnybooks, Wayne and I spoke at length about our excitement for Radical Publishing’s upcoming series Time Bomb, a time travel WWII adventure that really excited us with an excellent preview in the FCBD book. Well, Radical has officially announced a release date for the book – this […]
…because it’s sold out! Surely it happened because we gave it such a positive review in a recent episode of Funnybooks. Congrats to Ron Marz and Top Cow – this book definitely deserves to be a hit. Plus, I hear that it’s ongoing now, not just a mini series. Good news for all. MAGDALENA #1 […]
CAST OF PLAYERS: Aaron Murphy……………..Claws-of-Honor………………….Were-Tiger Jera Morrison……………….Alseyne Aulaudin…………………Sidhe Changeling Debora Silkotch…………..Casey Gavin…………………………Human Psionic Aron Head……………….Story/Setting/Everything Else…….Game Master ********************************************* “Casey, don’t be shy,” Alseyne looked over her shoulder at Casey. “What do you think of this for you?” The Sidhe pulled out a black leather dress that had lacings up both sides, leaving a strip about […]
Last Thursday, the second season finale of the television show Fringe, “Over There, Part 2,” aired, a rare extended adventure into the alternate universe that Fringe has only briefly given us glimpses of until this point. Fringe is one of those rare shows where the mythology episodes seem to outshine the “monster of the week” […]
It was bound to happen. Paul was whisked screaming into the jungle by the smoke monster. Screaming. Like a little girl. We mourn his loss as he’d want us to, by talking about the week’s comics. Paul’s away this week, apparently testifying before Congress Wayne is all that and a bag of chips Aron sucks […]
Fred Van Lente is a tease. Seriously, the writer of such books as Iron Man: Legacy, Incredible Hercules, Marvel Zombies, Amazing and Web of Spider-Man teases all kinds of hot, gooey awesomeness in his interview with Paul. He’s got lots of stories in the pipeline at Marvel and he talks all about ’em in this […]
Source: AICN Okay, so apparently one superhero show isn’t enough to fill the void left by Heroes being canceled (not that any of us watched it anymore anyway). In addition to The Cape (check out the trailer for that one here), ABC is throwing their hat in the ring with No Ordinary Family, which kind […]
I’m not a fan of novels that flaunt their influences, particularly when I’m familiar with the influences in question. It’s like paying to see a new band and discovering only after the set begins that you’re watching a cover band. The music may be competent, but if you wanted to hear those songs, you could […]
I listen to a few role-playing podcasts and have sampled a few more and there is one topic that has come up in almost all of them, sometimes multiple times. Sooner or later, almost every podcast discusses ways of growing the hobby and recruiting new players. I’ve heard all manner of methods from approaching likely […]
