Firefly Valentine’s Day cards
We’re keeping up with our week of James Stowe appreciation. The freelance illustrator draws nifty, geeky, Valentine’s Day designs for his kids, shares them with and makes them available to buy at the Sidekick Quests store. In 2014 James gave us Firefly Valentine’s Day cards to feel nostalgic over. I’m not entirely sure this batch […]
The final trailer for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is solid
Batman bursting up through the floor and kicking the living daylight out of the baddies. This whole trailer seems to be very much on Batman’s point of view – why he’s against Superman – cut with Lex’s mad meddling. That’s not all too surprising given how much of a draw Batman is (he’s already first […]
Hardcore Henry takes the FPS format to the cinema
You’re familiar with FPS games like Doom. You get to see your hands, the weapon you’re holding and the enemies that come at you. Some of these games have pretty interesting plots but would it hold up as a movie? Hardcore Henry will find out. You (Henry) remember nothing as you’ve been brought back from […]
A second chance for Altais and mankind
Back in 2014 Altais was asking for AUD $40,000 on Kickstarter to fund a good looking fantasy RPG. That project was cancelled. This month the relaunch hit Kickstarter and is asking for a far more modest $10,000. It’s worth a look. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1121209158/altais-age-of-ruin-a-dystopian-fantasy-rpg-relaunc [Back this campaign] This isn’t just a second chance for Parhelia Games’ Aitais […]

His daily life is about poking around in the ruins, looking for water and scraps of food while keeping out of the way of raiders. One fateful […]
Competition: 3 months POP In a Box subscription!
Are you collecting POP! Vinyls yet? They’re always the most popular purchase when I visit a Comic Con. They make great gifts and I’ve seen people post photographs of their impressive POP! displays. POP in a Box (UK | US) is a helpful company in either case. Each month they’ll send you a POP and […]
Super Mario Bros Valentine’s Day power-ups!
We’re having a run of great Valentine’s Day art from James Stowe. Each year he asks his children what they want designed for Valentine’s Day and each year he keeps his promise. Back in 2013 his daughter suggested Mario Bros power-ups as it might be the sort of thing boys liked but with Princesses too. […]
Irregular Reconnaissance: Anime #15
Welcome back to Irregular Recoannaissance which returns after a gap of a year. How’s that for irregular? This anime column is a collection of mini-reviews. In particular it looks at anime episodes, rather than movies or whole collections, to give thoughts and recommendations on whether the title is going strong, getting better or loosing interest. […]
Tentacle horns turn you into an Elder goddess
[I need these] This is a neat idea from Etsy boutique idolatre. Colourful, tentacle patterned, curling goat-like horns that fit to your head and make you look like some Elder God Succubus. They’re not cheap, though, but are made by hand from plastic resin. On the product page you can pick the colour scheme and […]
