I’m blown away. These Japanese Samurai versions of the Thundercats are fantastic. They are the work of Phil Postma a Canadian character designer with 20 years experience. His blog is going straight into my Feedly RSS reader. Postma has worked on Flash Gordon, The Mask, World of Quest, The Ripping Friends, Freaky Stories and many […]
Short film: Kin (GM Inspiration)
This short film, one of the first Kin Fables, reminds me of the RPG Beyond the Supernatural. I’m not sure why. Sure; there are supernatural elements in it but surely the project could remind me equally of Kult or a Cthulhu game? This is a Five Knights Production, a film by Seb and Ben McKinnon […]
Steampunk turret lamp
Portal turret meets steampunk? Bedtime reading meets awesome? A lamp that can run away from you? Rob, who runs Artype, calls this fantastic creation a steampunk robot lamp and has it up for sale on his Etsy page. There’s a collection of equally unique steampunky items at the store but this oddly cute robot lamp […]
DC Comic’s Constantine to get his own TV show
I was just moaning about Constantine in Irregular Reconnaissance when NBC go and announce a TV show. David Goyer (Batman Begins, Man of Steel) and Daniel Cerone (The Mentalist) are writing the script. This is interesting as we’ll be left to wonder whether the TV show will tie in with Guillermo del Toro’s Dark Universe […]

A review of Clockwork Watch: Breakaway
The first in the Clockwork Watch “series” is The Arrival and it really caught my attention. I put “series” in quotes because Clockwork Watch is more than just a comic book line; it’s a transmedia experience too. At least, I think that’s the term. There are LARPs to accompany it, events and art. The Anachronauts […]
What happens next in Firefly/Serenity? Find out here!
Whereas they’ve been graphic novels before – like Serenity: The Shepherd’s Tale – there’s not been any comic books that really acted as a continuation of the Firefly series and Serenity movie. Until now. Now Dark Horse comics, who do the continuation of Buffy the Vampire Slayer for Joss Whedon, will publish a follow on […]
Incredible sci-fi spaceship comparison chart
Ever wondered which spaceship would win in a dog fight? Ever wondered which spaceship was bigger? Now the impressive Dirk Loechel has created a size accurate comparison chart. He says it’s right and I can’t disagree with him. There’s a huge number of spaceships on this chart and not just from films like Star Trek […]
Final Kickstarter push for League of S.T.E.A.M. season three
[Back this Campaign] It’s taken me a while to get around to watching the Kickstarter pitch for Season 3 of Adventures of the League of S.T.E.A.M. I’m glad I’ve watched it now but the campaign is in the final week. I’m glad I watched the pitch video because the quality speaks for itself. I really […]
Wizards without Coats: No Shoes
< PreviousWizards without CoatsNext > This week in Wizards without Coats we tackle the serious issue of Halfling cultural neglect. When you issue a set of rules and guidelines do you think about the Halflings? For example, do you remind your chain of inns to have highchairs? Do you have bathtubs that are […]
