All those battles and no serious injuries? Come on. All those arcane powers and no side effects? Come on! If you ask me it comes as no surprise to discover that the cast of the Streetfighter have become zombies! Credit goes to Manuel Augusto Dischinger Moura, one of the artistic talents of Brazil, for the […]

Think Jason Momoa could ever look like Conan?
I nearly titled this post “Do you think Stargate‘s Jason Momoa could ever look like Conan?” but I imagine he’s getting pretty fed up of the Stargate pre-fix. I wasn’t sure. I was sure he would be a good actor so I was content with the casting. This picture makes me thing Momoa could well […]
Fantasy skull wallpapers for the iPhone 4
This will make me sound like a stalker – but one of the artists I like to follow closely on the web is Keith Noordzy. Keith has the knack of getting that blend of fantasy into images that would otherwise have a familiar feeling. For example, he’s published this pair of skull wallpapers for the […]
Warhammer and romantic narrative? What? Let Phil Kelly explain
Games Workshop have a new video for their forthcoming Warhammer revision. Today we’ve games developer Phil Kelly doing a splendid job of talking us through the background to the world. Mountains are sentient creatures that grumble and growl, the whole landscape has been warped by wild magic – it’s hell on earth. My favourite bit […]
I Lived On the Moon
This video is from the adverting agency Saatchi & Saatchi. It’s the best of 20 entries summitted to the the Director’s Showcase at Cannes (not the movie one; the advertising and marketing one). Whereas I like my agencies to be a little more digital than Saatchi & Saatchi currently manage (note; I’m bias!) I do […]
Victorian Star Wars portraits
Greg Peltz will surely get more than 15 minutes of fame for this smashing idea. He’s started to put together some fantastic Star Wars portraits – with the twist of having a Victorian air. They work so wonderfully well! Make sure you visit his blog and leave a comment.
Hasbro, owner of Wizards of the Coast and Transformers, is forced to deny sale
Hasbro issued a press release to deny market rumours that it was for sale. However, the games company admitted it had been approached by a private equity firm about a possible deal – and that the Board of Directors had turned them down. This is interesting as a private equity company might well decide there […]
Zombie survival energy drink
Face it; it’s not easy out-running the undead. Those slices of pizza haven’t helped me survive the zombie rampage. What we need is some sort of energy drink that help us with that vital boost when we need it the most. Or, like me, you spend a lot of time on the “red eye” flight […]
If Batman played golf – the Batman golf cart
Apparently, it was initially thought that Christopher Nolan owned this clever piece of engineering. That seems unlikely to me! Nevertheless, that suggestion comes from Technabob who also bring us these fantastic pictures of the Batman tumbler golf cart. It’s actually a superfan (and someone handy in the garage) who has put this together. Okay; enough […]
Cute Android phone charm… er, androidy!
I’m not often won over by phone charms but this cheeky chap has a certain character. He’s far from expensive either coming in at less than $3.00 and with free shipping. I’ve not checked but I suspect this doesn’t include international. Today, of course, is a big Android day with Verizon and Motorola announcing the Droid […]
