San Diego Comic-Con 2010 Preview Night

July 23, 2010 by Logan Bonner

Here’s a quick post to cover the tiny bit of Comic-Con that’s happened so far. After a mistake that put me on the wrong shuttle and a nearly hour-long drive around downtown, I arrived at the house Chris Tulach and I have rented a room in. Then after a 30-minute walk back down to the convention center, I snagged my professional badge and headed toward the exhibit hall that was just opening up.

Greetings from the New Initiate

July 21, 2010 by Logan Bonner

When Chris Sims extended an offer to joining Critical-Hits a while back, I was intrigued. I liked the site, and its reputation as a good group of people who usually stay positive about games (but while remaining honest about their opinions). My existing blog, while mostly about gaming, didn’t cleave strictly to D&D discussions. Or at least I didn’t plan for it to always do so. Also, I’ve made a long tradition of following in Chris Sims’s footsteps ever since I became an editor on D&D shortly after he did, so here was another chance.

Uncle Vanir’s Jedi Jamboree

January 26, 2010 by Vanir

I personally would like to see every last one of the Presidents of the United States in a fighting game, their legacy distilled into a couple of special attacks.

Comic Books, Franchises & Reboots Oh My!

January 13, 2010 by Bartoneus

Allow me to take you on a small adventure through my life of the last few months. With more spare time than I’ve had in the last six years and a cornucopia of neglected hobbies crying out for attention, trying to choose what to do next can be rather difficult.

YouTube Tuesday: I Am Super Lucky Golden Iron Man Edition

August 4, 2009 by Dave

Test animation for an Iron Man anime, the final of which is to be written by Warren Ellis. Below, a similar test animation for the Wolverine anime, also to be written by Ellis, but that doesn’t look nearly as good.

Marvel’s X-Men Movie Mistakes

May 22, 2009 by Bartoneus

Stemming from some of the comments on Darth Cthulhu’s ‘controversial’ Star Trek post, I started thinking about the first X-Men movie and its relation to the rest of the franchise now that X-Men Origins: Wolverine is out.  One commentor related the first X-Men movie, Ironman, and the first Spiderman to Star Trek as examples that […]
