As a preview of our upcoming review of Matthias Wolf’s graphic novel Unbeatable (here’s a sneak: it’s damn fantastic), courtesy of CBR, we have a look at the trailer for the book, which is pretty sweet.  Have I told you before how much I love trailers for comics?  Especially when they’re as well done as […]

Over the weekend, Paul announced the winner of the 100 Free Comics That Don’t Suck Give-A-Way. It was Bear Swarm’s Rob that won the day.   He gave a nice shout out to IoM over on his podcast while at the same time speaking rather harshly of me.  I suggested to Paul that perhaps, just […]

It’s winter of the year 1152.  The season has been a tough one, and the town of Lockhaven is running dangerously short on food and supplies.  A small team of elite soldiers serving as diplomats (Saxon, Kenzie, Lieam, and Sadie, led by Celanawe) make their way through the snow blanketed territories to improve relations between […]

I will be attending Fear the Boot’s Fear The Con 2 in beautiful, scenic St. Charles, Missouri later this week.  The first FtC was an epic amount of fun.  I’ve been looking forward to FtC2 since the con wrapped up last year. Fear the Con was the best gaming con I have ever been to.  […]
