Not really sure there’s much more to it than that. Well, maybe a couple of things. This Saturday, you can walk into almost any comic book shop near you and pick up a free comic book. But ONE free comic? What are you going to do with that? Read it in the car on the […]
IoM is typically adult fare. We cuss, we review horror movies and violent comic books. But, in all actuality, we wouldn’t be the sick beings we are if it wasn’t for some family-friendly comic book or TV show or movie that got us into the fold to begin with. For Aron, it was Disney’s Scamp. […]
….but please please please let this happen!!!!!!!! From the Orlando Sentinel, Has the parent company of Universal Orlando sniffed around the parent company of SeaWorld Orlando? General Electric Co. Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Jeff Immelt won’t say outright, but he sure makes it sound like his company has at least kicked the tires at […]
Remember when video game collector’s editions only cost $10 bucks more than the regular, non-limited edition? I’m not sure who decided that video games even need a limited edition, honestly. Walking into Best Buy yesterday, I noticed many older ones, like Quantum of Solace, Call of Duty, and even Halo 3, still sitting on the […]
One of the hardest things about playing rpgs is breaking into the hobby. Without a knowledgeable hand to guide you, deciphering the myriad of terminology, niches, and reviewer biases can be absolutely mind-boggling. And don’t discount this problem to apply to just gaming newbies. Even the experienced gamer may have to do a whole lot […]
Last week, I wrote about the upcoming intervention the hosts of Fear the Boot have planned for Dan Repperger.

His fellow hosts are planning on helping him out of his funk by getting him excited about a genre […]
Back in the late 1980’s, Dark Horse Comics blew my mind when they started publishing original stories from the Aliens universe. Published before Alien3 came along and kind of screwed up their continuity, the first series I picked up was actually their second, a fully-painted tale of Ripley and Newt after the events of James […]
For the longest damn time, I tried to get my hands on a copy of Marvel vs. Capcom 2 for the original Xbox. I called around to all the stores and kept checking online. Every once in a while, the website for GameStop would say that a copy would be in, but I’d venture out […]
Yes, the cover of the script says “Nightmare on Elm St,” not “A Nightmare on Elm St,” which I actually prefer, but no one really says anyway. Freddy Krueger is coming, played by Jackie Earle Haley (who’s name sounds like a serial killer name, doesn’t it?), stalking Nancy Thompson (Rooney Mara) and her friends in […]
And then it happened; the whole world heard the howl of Garm, and the moon was eclipsed in blood. The head of Jörmungandr, the Midgard Serpent, 350 miles across, breached the surface of the Arabian Sea and rose up into the troposphere… Life is good for the Savage Worlds gamer. There’s some truly amazing support […]
