September 27, 2018 by Ben Jackson-Ellery Leave a Comment

Dazzler

Mostly when I write a genre police story, I begin by picking the genre and then discussing the issues around the context and creation of the genre. But today we’re going to have to approach this article from a different perspective. We’re about to talk about the Bronze age of comics, a style and era […]

Rule 63 Inspector Gadget

There are always plenty of great cosplayers at Comic Con, but some of the most fun are those highlighting Rule 63 (that for every pop culture character, there is another version of the opposite gender).

Latest Arrow season 3 trailer

September 4, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Arrow season 3 is nearly out in the States. Kinda. It’s due on the CW on October 8th. We can hope it escapes to other territories shortly after that. I don’t suppose there are any surprises in this trailer. We see a little more of Ray Palmer and the expected Thea Queen training scene. One […]

Adam Thompson is a graphic designer based in Carbondale, USA. His series Heroic Words of Wisdom is designed to try and bring some of iconic superhero dialogue out from the pages of comic books and to a wider audience. In my mind, one of the most famous pieces of comics dialogue is the oath sworn […]

Face capture that orc

December 22, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Have you seen any of The Hobbit movies? You might recognise this animation… and I think it’s nice to peer behind the face capture. WHat do you think? Pretty impressive? Will films of the future do without actors all together? We’ll have captured their likeness and will be able to animate them like puppets. Who […]

The deadly assassin Cheshire graduates to DC’s New 52

May 12, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

DC Comics have shown us the New 52 design of Cheshire. Cheshire is one of the more dangerous assassins of the DC Universe; an expert in martial arts and poisons. It’s likely that she’ll have some connection to the Red Hood aka Jason Todd and to Roy Harper. Both Harper and Hood are part of […]
