Amazon is preparing to beef up its Kindle hardware with news that it has acquired New York-based Touchco. Both …
So I didn’t find anything over the weekend that caught me off guard or I didn’t already know about. But late last night, a tipster sent over a fan made trailer for a live action version of Aleksa Gajić and Darko Grkinić’s Serbian comic Technotise. I know nothing about this comic or the animated sequel, Technotise: Edit & I …
Ouch. Burn. Daaaaaammmnnnn.
Marvel just issued this press release to comic shops asking for unsold copies of DC’s Blackest Night tie-ins for variant covers of Siege #3. From my understanding, retailers had to purchase large quantities of the Blackest Night run in order to get those fancy Green Lantern rings. Turns out there are …

Today I went back Home. To PlayStation Home, that is.
The PlayStation 3’s online, avatar-based social networking community is filled with plenty of other player avatars, mini-games, shops, music, advertisements and video previews. I’ve only hung out in the virtual world a handful of times since the beta launched about one year ago …

There are no words. This can’t be real, right? How is it that they’ve screwed up Big Daddy’s costume when everyone else’s costume in Kick-Ass looks spot on? Well, McLovin’s isn’t as accurate as Dave Lizewski’s costume but I think you see my point. You see the resemblance between Big Daddy and Batman, right? I’m not the only, right?
