Punisher movie: Do Not Fall in New York City

December 26, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This video is based on the story written by Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon and is illustrated by Luis Pelayo Junquera. It’s clearly the work of a Punisher fan. The video is 7 minutes long and entirely not for profit. It was made using Photoshop Premiere, After Effects, Flash CS4, Wecom Intuos 4 and Autodesk […]

Resident Evil: Code Veronica

December 21, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

S.D. Perry, author of a supporting host of Res Evil books, first published Code: Veronica in 2001. Titan re-released the book in December 2012. Fancy that; a novel of a horror computer game getting published more than ten years after it first saw print. That says a lot. I’ve asked around and the consensus seems […]

Resident Evil: Nemesis

December 9, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

S.D. Perry’s novel of the third Resident Evil game – Resident Evil: Nemesis, the fifth book in the franchise, first came out in the year 2000. Nearly 13 years later and it’s back in print, in fact, Amazon UK only has a few copies left. No doubt the recent movie is partly due to the […]

Archeologists Of Shadows, Volume 1: The Resistance

December 5, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Septagon Studios is home to a rather interesting graphic novel. Archeologists Of Shadows is a successful blend of drawing, photography and digital painting. That’s not all; there’s photo manipulation and even sculpture. The result is impressive. There’s plenty of examples of the style in this review, even a small gallery at the end of the […]

The Gotham Evening Post

December 4, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This fine collection of art comes from the talent that is Mark Dos Santos. He was rebuilding his site when this post went live but his online store where you can buy these prints is still live and functional. His first published job was for Deadlands: Hell on Earth so Mark has gamer cred as […]

In the hardcover edition all four are put together in a single book and it’s a fantastic way to dive into the clever story.

November 24, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment
