The Christmastide Cometh

December 21, 2006 by Bartoneus

With Christmas a scant amount of days away, everyone pretty much starts the slow process of stopping everything else they were doing.  The process begins sometime in August, when the first leaf decides it can resist the foul temptations of gravity no longer, or it simply falls for the grass’ endless tauntings of free booze […]

Around the Survivors a Perimeter Create!

November 15, 2006 by Bartoneus

While preparing for last week’s comic, I went to an obvious source for cartoon-yoda images, which was of course the fantastic Clone Wars cartoons.  Pictured to the right is a quick drawing I did from one of the images, just to get a feel for the style and see what I could learn from it.  […]

Spike's Scream Awards

September 12, 2006 by Dave

I have mixed feelings about Spike as a network. Yes, there are multiple networks for women, and none other than Spike specifically “for men” except, you know, ESPN, Fox News, Cinemax, and, well, most of tv. On the flip side, Spike has Star Trek and Blade. Hmmm. All that aside, Spike has created their own […]

Inquisition of the Week: Religion?

September 11, 2006 by Bartoneus

Following older discussions about the differences between the Chronicles of Narnia and the Lord of the Rings book series, as well as a lot of the inevitable flak pertaining to the Left Behind RTS game, I ask you: Can Religion be a part of Games, Comics, and Movies?
