Jessica Rabbit as Asami Sato
Asami Sato is a character from the American anime The Legend of Korra. She’s based in the capital Republic City, isn’t a Bender but is an excellent fighter. In this mashup we’ve Jessica Rabbit as Asami. I think she plays the part well. This stunning picture is the work of Robby Cook who’s already been […]
The weird west: A review of The Six-Gun Tarot
The Six-Gun Tarot in a book all Trail of Cthulhu fans should read. Pretty much all of the rest of us should pick it up too. This story of magic and guns in the wild west easily makes in onto my 2013 Recommend Reading list. Let’s start with a town in the middle of the […]
Antonio Caparo’s steampunk posters
Canadian artist Antonia Caparo was commissioned to create four steampunk posters to promote Teen Read Week. He was given four words for the posters; Imagine, Create, Discover and Explore. I think he’s done a great job. Not only are these superb steampunk posters but I can clearly see which poster is Imagine, Create, Discover and […]
Creativity Kills: Interesting ways to slay your foes in D&D
Warning; NSFW language in places. This is a year old video from CrossPlatform ActionSquad in which they reminisce on murderous adventures, lucky dice rolls and players hacking through the zombie threat in unexpected ways.

It looked like an incredibly cosmopolitan collection of students in training and apparently running the city. By “cosmopolitan” I mean we had mechs, witches, naked but not anatomically complete incubus, sports stars with eyes in their hats, buxom school […]
Unbelievable cosplay at home pictures
These pictures are unbelievable. By that I mean they’re very good but I also have my doubts as to whether these are real life cosplayers. The photographs are from a collection called Just the Two of Us. Taken by Klaus Pitchler they’re supposed to show Austrain cosplayers at home. It’s a lovely concept but does […]

The Tardis and the Tentacle
How’s this for a pair of bookends? On one side you’ve the Tardis come to investigate. On the other side you’ve… well, it looks like a tentacle monster to me. The copper piping makes it clear the two are in the same old building. The fact that you can squeeze your books upright between them […]
