Grayson: Earth One pilot
I’ve seen a few of these style of videos; made on a budget, talking to fandom, and with actors you’re yet to see on the TV. They’re generally a mixed bunch. Grayson: Earth One, however, is a cut above the rest. Hisonni Johnson’s re-imagined origin story of Nightwing/Richard Grayson is tight, makes perfect use of […]

A review of Stephen King’s Joyland
Joyland is a fantastic story. This is a compelling and yet oddly gentle tale of a young man experiencing the ache of heartbreak and the curve-balls life can throw at you. As it happens, Joyland is written by that master suspense Stephen King. So when there’s the mention that the Horror House in the Joyland […]
LEGO war map
This is an usual LEGO build but the quality is clear. This is the sort of map you might expect to see on the wooden table in a field General’s tent headquarters. I can see why it reminds some of the start of a Game of Thrones, the TV version that is, too. The LEGO […]
Custom built zombie hunter Nerf gun
This zombie-slaying weapon is Kody Koala’s latest project. It has a chainsaw for when the zombies get close and a sniper rifle for when you’re in the right position – not close to them. This is a fully functional Nerf gun, with a modified clip (12 shots) and will be on sale later if it’s […]

Arpeggio of Blue Steel trailer
Global warming has resulted in much of Earth’s land being lost to the waters. It’s the early 21st century when a “Fleet of Fog” apepars on the oceans, armed with super weapons, and defeats all rival navies. Mankind can no longer even try by sea. Nearly two decades later, Gunzo Chihaya and friends get their […]
The mighty dragon cake sacrificed during Magic: The Gathering WMCQ
The Magic: The Gathering WMCQ (World Magic Cup Qualifiers) in Targu Mures, Romania, had 44 players. They all were lucky enough to enjoy a piece of his impressive cake. I wonder if it gave an advantage to players with fire mana? Actually, it’s worth noting that Targu Mures (or Tirgu Mures, in Romanian) is a […]
