April 17, 2007 by Dave

If you live at all in the comics world, chances are you’re familiar with Warren Ellis. His biggest splash was in the seminal work Transmetropolitan, combining Hunter S. Thompson-style gonzo journalism with a cynical, megalopolis future. More recently, I adored his superhero tale Nextwave, easily one of my favorite comic series of the last year. […]

Antarctica: Explored

March 23, 2007 by Bartoneus

The Washington Post has put up a very interesting article about one of the Earth’s most over-looked continents, Antarctica.  What you will find at the site is a collection of breath-taking images of snow, rock, blue skies, and explorers as well as videos and sound bites from the expedition.  Many of which end up looking digitally altered due to the […]

WoW Action Figures Update

March 21, 2007 by Bartoneus

To tide you over until the Random Encounter is up later today, I wanted to fulfill one of my promises made back in early February.  I said that I would post images of the World of Warcraft action figures as soon as they came out, but as I don’t visit the WoW homepage very often I must […]
