Comic News: FOUR Teaser

by Matt Sernaker, Senior Editor

Guess who’s coming for dinner?

After less than a YEAR of being “dead”, it seems that the Human Torch is returning to the Fantastic Four. While no one will truly be surprised by this (since we never saw a body), it just feels rushed. The current development and story arc for the former Fantastic Four (now FF) has been fun and exciting, but bringing Johnny back so soon doesn’t allow for much creativity to flourish.

Gaming News: Lollypop Chainsaw coming your way

by Caleb Paullus, Media Editor Games

In a very short, but sweet announcement WB Games, Kadokawa Games, and Grasshopper Manufacture have announced a partnership and game called “Lollipop Chainsaw”.

Lollipop Chainsaw is the ‘un-deadly’ story of sweet and killer zombie hunter Juliet Starling and her quest to uncover the root of a colossal zombie outbreak.  With her wickedly awesome chainsaw in hand, Juliet slices, dices and splits her way through hordes of the undead, but soon realizes the horde is only the opening act to a festival of zombie rock lords determined to kill the chainsaw wielding cheerleader. 

Checking out their site I can tell this is something you might enjoy. That is if you like chainsaws, cute cgi girls and upskirts.

SDCC2011: Video Game News: Darksiders II


by Caleb Paullus, Media Editor Games

We were invited to a special little shindig during comic con to check out the latest update on Darksiders II. Let me just start off by saying…the mashed potatoes at the party were delicious. Also…HOLY SHIT.



So in the first game, you played as war, which was tons of fun destroying everything in your path. Now you play as Death. I know you may be thinking, WTF, why did you change the main character you idiots???? I thought that too at first, but after I realized that the Darksiders story line was so complex that it only made sense to have the next game through the eyes other another horseman.

SDCC2011: Missing Lost Clip Revealed At Comic-Con

Finally, over a year after the end of the series, Lost creators Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse revealed a lost Lost clip from the first season of the series during a panel at Comic-Con on Friday. Read More to see just how far back the plot goes…
