A Podcast Retrospective: Villainy Inc.

A Podcast Retrospective: Villainy Inc.

Author’s Note: This article is quite personal, so if the impetus behind it seems skewed, that’s why. This week, the podcast Villainy Inc. broadcast its last episode. For 142 episodes, Dr. Disaster and his co-hosts have worked to entertain the masses with talk of Star Wars, Pokemon, and the quirks of (sometimes) living in an Asian country.  The “dastardly” crew worked their hardest to please an audience they didn’t even know listened, and continued to record even though they felt like … Read entire article »

Mint in Box: Marvel Universe Thor w/ JJ Hawkins

Mint in Box: Marvel Universe Thor w/ JJ Hawkins

Myself and JJ Hawkins take a look at the Odinson himself. A bunch of stuff went wrong on my end during production but I felt I had to get this up regardless.

The Importance of Being Nice in Geek Culture

The Importance of Being Nice in Geek Culture

I don’t necessarily identify myself as a geek, but there are many moments in life when I realize that I am.

Replaceface – Facing Brilliant

Replaceface – Facing Brilliant

There is a rather wonderful little project going on over in Tumblr-land. Steve Payne is using the 329 portraits of Russian generals painted by George Dawes and changing the faces. He started out using his friends and family but has gone on to use some slightly more famous faces for his art. Some look oddly out of place but others could convince you they’ve led armies to war. Have a look at some of my favourites below and check … Read entire article »

Mint in Box: Thundercats

Mint in Box: Thundercats

This coming December sees the release of the highly anticipated Thundercats line from Bandai in the UK. I’ve heard it’s selling really well in the US so it’s no surprise that they’re hyping up the launch of the show (Did you see Peaches Geldof dressed as Cheetara? Meow!) and the upcoming toyline looks to be offering a hell of a lot for both young and old fans alike. I’m breaking out my Sight Beyond Sight … Read entire article »

Happy Birthday Jim Henson

Happy Birthday Jim Henson

Had he not unfortunately died in 1990, the wonderful, majestic Jim Henson would be celebrating his 75th birthday today. Both myself and other members of DOOM have led a slightly fuller life thanks to experiencing some of Jim’s work. While words can’t express how lesser the world is without him in it, let’s celebrate the man’s birthday by remembering some of the great things he contributed. While reminiscing I came across some interesting videos that you … Read entire article »
