NBC Cancels Community, Yahoo Brings It Back
Jun 30th
It seems lately that there is a trend of big networks canceling cult popular TV shows only for them to find a new life with a pre-existing and new fanbase online thanks to great companies like Netflix. Now joining those ranks is the huge internet company, Yahoo, with the amazing TV series, Community. Yes, Community, that funny little comedy series from NBC that got canceled after its fifth season earlier this year. It didn’t seem like NBC ever had much respect for the show, moving around its release dates, cutting down season lengths, and even at one point firing their More >
The Flash Leaks - A Few Spoiler Avoiding Thoughts
Jun 29th
The pilot episode of The Flash has leaked online, well before its intended release date of October 7th this year. Because of this, well I’m not the type to jump on a full review over such, I’d like to point out some of the hopeful bits that might entice you a bit towards checking out this new series when it premieres on CW this Fall. And if CW is smart, they’ll put the full pilot on their website in advance of the show, to prevent promotion of pirating. Of course that’s just my thought on the matter, but here are a More >
Star Wars Gets A Guardians of the Galaxy Style Trailer
Jun 22nd
I love Star Wars. It is undoubtedly a classic Sci-Fi epic for the ages…but with the exception of a few Tag and Bink moments, Star Wars is serious business. That all said, I have never found Star Wars more humorous than I have recently found it in the new Guardians of the Galaxy style trailer from The Unusual Suspect. Taking a nod from the upcoming Marvel film, Guardians of the Galaxy, and its hilarious trailer done up with late 60′s pop music, The Unusual Suspect has sampled clips and sounds from the original Star Wars trilogy into a hilarious new More >

After last week’s surprising appearance of a trailer for Avatar: The Legend of Korra Book 3, fans were ecstatic and eagerly awaiting more news on the project.

Dave Gibbon Designs Beer Art

Escondido’s world class brewery, Stone, is known for their bitter betters, awesome events, and an often geeky crowd enjoying their very incredible beer gardens. The Escondido location for Stone Brewery has played host to signings that include Keven J. Anderson, has been frequented by many comic creators and genre actors, and regularly holds summer movie nights that include some cult classics with great geek themes.

Guardians of the Galaxy Gets Its Second Big Trailer
Jun 17th
The Guardians of the Galaxy are back with yet another awesome trailer, filled with new footage! More action, more dialogue from Bradley ‘Rocket Raccoon’ Cooper and Vin ‘ Groot’ Diesel, more Nova Corps, and more of those loveable A-Holes here to protect us from the tyranny of Ronan the Accuser! This trailer looks great and is a slight bit more serious than the rest, but still has quite a bit of humor (especially towards the end). I’m certainly only growing in my excitement for Guardians of the Galaxy’s release this August 1st in the US and July 31st in the More >

To some of you it might be a surprise that Genesis/”Kid Apocalypse”, the youthful clone of the dreadful first mutant currently living at the Jean Grey School for Gifted Children, is a rapper.

He is a brilliantly talented lyricist who has made several music videos with his ‘Dark Beast’ compatriot, rapper Jared Yanez. You might have seen them at several various conventions, including Emerald City Comic Con, where his March 2013 music video, Came From The Chain, More >
Dynamite’s New Vampirella #1 Goes To Second Print…While First Print Is In Stock!?
Jun 13th
Dynamite’s new Vampirella series, written by acclaimed horror author Nancy Collins, is getting rave reviews and selling out at many stores. As you might expect, this has led to a second printing of Vampirella #1 with a black and white sketch version of Terry Dodson’s beautiful cover. Here’s the only odd part about this second printing…the first printing is still available at the distribution level, which is normally not the case when a second printing is announced. Sure, you’ll often find a few shops that still have first printings laying around for whatever reason (the shop over ordered, the book More >
Avatar: The Legend of Korra Book 3 Trailer
Jun 11th
Thanks to the wonderful Michael Dante DiMartino, otherwise possibly known as Leaky McLeakerpants by his partner and Avatar co-creator Bryan Konietzko, we now have the official Avatar: The Legend of Korra Book 3 trailer. This trailer for Book 3, Changes, comes to us early according to Konietzko. Why early? Probably due to Nickelodeons very unfortunate leak of episodes 3-6 of the new season that happened last week (more details on that below). A few details on Book 3 trailer: the music is provided by Jeremy Zuckerman, it was edited by Jeff Adams, the motion graphics were done by Matt Gadbois, More >
