Marv Wolfman joining DCUO team
Posted in Comics on Jan 31st, 2009
Oh Internet, when will you ever stop spoiling those big secrets of magazines? (I sincerely hope – never. Don’t go changing, baby.) In another nail in the coffin of dead tree media (ooh, controversial), a big reveal scheduled for the New York ComicCon has come out early, thanks to Wizard Magazine shipping – well, on [...]
Watchmen’s Under the Hood on DVD
Posted in Everything Else! on Jan 31st, 2009
If you’ve been following the production of Watchmen, then you may already know that quite a while back, director Zack Snyder confirmed that he would be bringing the side (parallel?) story Tales of the Black Freighter to life by creating it as an animated short. The plan was to make this available on DVD (and, [...]
Today I was absolutely gob-smacked to hear from friend of the show Gangrel that they have named a Netgun after me in Tabula Rasa. Apparently this honour has been placed upon other players who are notable in the community. I really wasn’t expecting this but it is a classic example of the great things about [...]

Put your questions to the director of The League!
Posted in Limited Edition on Jan 26th, 2009
Good morning! It’s Monday, that means a full week ahead, and plenty of time to wish you were doing other things. Like watching superhero movies and then thinking up questions for their director and co-writer. Yes, if you listened to Limited Edition episode 11 like the good people I know you all are, you’ll know [...]
Stephen’s Solicitations: Marvel Comics, April 2009
Posted in Comics on Jan 25th, 2009
For what this is all about, we lazily refer you all to our previous post. In a nutshell: comics are advance solicited, plot summaries are revealed, opportunities for snark are ahoy. It’s Marvel time. Now, I have to hand it to Marvel; when it comes to solicitations that actually get you interested in potentially reading [...]
Is NCsoft unfair to charge extra to existing users for Mac client?
Posted in Games on Jan 24th, 2009
OK before you read this I do need to back it up with a few more tests, but I am somewhat irked about this so thought I would get this out in the open. I think games companies need to do more to encourage Mac users to play games. The hardware is capable and it’s [...]

John gives a shout-out to our fellow VirginWorlds podcasts – Van Hemlock, Massively Speaking, Spouse Aggro and new kid on the block, Through the Aftermath (which John may or [...]
Stephen’s Solicitations: DC Comics, April 2009
Posted in Comics on Jan 22nd, 2009
Imagine if, three months ahead of time, the BBC released detailed plot summaries for the next season of Doctor Who. Or ABC told you what was going to happen on the next episode of Lost. Three months in advance. Seems a bit odd, doesn’t it? But, this is exactly what happens in comics. About three [...]
