I rather like this glass coasters from Entertainment Earth. These Star Wars images manage to cross the line from fanboy to art. Not only that; these feel like high impact art. Interesting art is perfect for the coffee table in the living room as it gives people something to talk about. I think these coasters […]
Joanna Gaskell: Elf barbarians and loyal geeks could put insipid network TV under pressure
[Back this Campaign] Standard Action is a webseries that follows a disparate group of heroes and would-be adventures in what’s clearly a roleplaying setting. The first season enjoyed tens of thousands of views on each episode. This Kickstarter has been launched to support season 3. Joanna Gaskell created the series, produces it and starts as […]
Comic Con Curves
This piece by Andrew Hickinbottom will grab your attention. Whereas this is very much Hickinbottom’s style there is a clever social comment here. He says this is; A homage to comic conventions, and a tribute to those brave attendees who cosplay in skimpy outfits! Our star is clearly less than comfortable with the attention she’s […]
Steampunk GIZMODuck model
This wonderful creation, mixing old Disney toons with modern meme, is a steampunk style GIZMODuck. The artist is Tim Wollweber and his portfolio is well worth watching. Do you remember GIZMODuck? He was a bean counter who worked for Scrooge McDuck but after an encounter with the robot suit uses the phrase “blathering blatherskite” to […]
DC’s Dark Universe might be their best chance against Marvel’s Avengers
Guillermo del Toro was at WonderCon to help promote Pacific Rim, the mecha versus Kaiju film, and it certainly feels like that’s going to be a great movie. While he was at the convention he also talked about Dark Universe – that’s the working name, perhaps the final name – for the “Justice League Dark” […]
Velociraptors are really clever girls
ADHD give us a parody of the famous “Clever girl!” scene from Jurassic Park. You know the one; Robert Muldoon has just been flanked by the stalking velociraptors, he knows he’s going to die but he still finds time to be impressed.
The Sea
This stunning illustration is from the Finnish artist Ture Ekroos. Ekroos has worked with game companies like Abandon Interactive Entertainment, PoBros Games and White Wolf Publishing. You can check out Ture’s collection at his site or buy this particular print from Society6. I’m sure this image evokes thoughts of Cthulhu for many gamers but it’s […]
Evil Dead cosplay: Lady Ash
Ash goes on to escape from Evil Dead to make it to Armies of Darkness. One cult movie now has two franchises. It also has fantastic, gender hopping, cosplay going for it with this Lady Ash. Photography by David Ngo.
Boba Fett stained glass
This remarkable piece of art was created by Michael McLane. It shows the ever popular bounty hunter, Boba Fett, in stained glass. I always associate churches with stained glass and can only imagine what sort of church a display like this would be part of.
Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters trailer
The trailer for Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters is out and it looks good. The distribution strategy seems to be a bit of a mess, the main sites carrying the news are using a geo-locked embed (it’s not as if the movie will only air in the States) and YouTube is a glut of reaction […]
