Exploding Kittens Review!
Aug 28th
Yes, you read that correctly. Exploding Kittens. According to their website it is a game “…for people who are into kittens and explosions and laser beams and sometimes goats.” So naturally, I bought it.
The funding for this game on Kickstarter set records that I am sure will not be broken for some time to come. By the time the campaign ended, there were 219,382 backers to project. That is more than DOUBLE the previous record of 105,857 backers, held by the folks at Reading Rainbow, since last summer. Now simply having an enormous number of project backers wasn’t enough, Exploding More >

A Look At Garth Ennis’ Unexpected New Series, A Train Called Love
Aug 20th
When comic fans hear the name Garth Ennis the first thing they think of is probably extreme violence, derogatory language, nudity, or generally just Preacher, his popular Vertigo comic series. With titles like The Boys, The Pro, The Authority, Crossed, and Punisher Max under his belt there is certainly a theme to his writing style. So when it was announced at San Diego Comic Con this year that Garth Ennis’ new comic series would be a romance title released through Dynamite Entertainment, people were understandably taken a back. Ennis has done some interesting war and espionage titles through Dynamite, but More >
