Omaru, the French photographer behind the popular cosplay highlights of 2011, took his camera to the Japan Expo in Marseille this year. The result? Two new videos and this time French cosplayers. Omaru wasn’t very keen on the venue/backdrop in terms of the video production but what I see here is cosplay as good as […]

New Legend of Korra trailer
The Legend of Korra is the sequel to Avatar: The Last Airbender. It’s set 70 years after the Last Airbender and Korra is the Avatar after Aang. Korra, born a waterbender, must battle Oman and his “anti-benders”. I enjoyed Avatar although I still can’t quite get used to the term “bending”. In fact, this trailer […]
Little Frakkin’ Toasters – the classic chrome centurion model
This little frakkin’ toaster isn’t entirely cheap – but he’s awfully cute. Cute in the conquer the human race sense, that is. He’s six inches tall, cast in resin and then plated in chrome. This really is a chrome job. Little frakkin’ toaster was designed by special effects arist Dustin Adair who worked on Battlestar […]

A review of Tank Girl’s Bad Wind Rising
Bad Wind Rising is a Tank Girl from Alan Martin and Rufus Dayglo. Dayglo knows the Tank Girl style well now and the hardbound comic book certainly feels right. It may, however, be Dayglo’s last TG. It took a while for Bad Wind Rising to draw me in. We like Tank Girl for the childish […]
Take the mask of Cthulhu for yourself?
Etsy trader Epic Leather has a rather impressive Cthulhu mask for sale. The work that has gone into this leather creation cannot be understated. The leather has been worked, coloured and shaped. There are very many different pieces to the mask which looks exactly like the face plate to some medieval cultist. It’s not cheap […]
