[Back this Campaign] There’s no doubt in my mind that She Makes Comics is a worthy Kickstarter. The quote at the end of the pitch video from producer Karen Green makes that clear. She says; There are a lot of women in this club and there is always room for more. The team are asking […]
The creation of Dungeons & Dragons: The Great Kingdom
http://vimeo.com/85059163 This is the trailer for the documentary The Great Kingdom that follows the creation of Dungeons & Dragons. It’s about the great work of Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson… and then the troubles with TSR. I think the trailer looks pretty compelling. It’s just a few minutes long and seems to promise an interesting […]

Get to know the cosplayers: Soni Aralynn and Thaxos
Distractotron continue their simple but effective series “Cosplay Chronicles”. This is a chance to get to know the cosplayers and I think it slays claims of “fake geek girls” in a single clip.

Only Leigh – A Very Fangirl Christmas

Ghost in the Shell: Arise – web episode
I’ve been lucky enough to see some Ghost in the Shell: Arise and review GitS: Arise – Pain. This, though, is new. Ghost Whispers is a web episode to promote Kokaku-JPRS.jp. Logicoma fan? Good news. There’s three of them in this web episode and that’s a threefold increase from the one in Pain.
