ONLY IN COMICS # 1

And we're back from our November hiatus and I want to focus on what's going on in the monthly books.

The this week we take a look at Deadpool Team up # 887 where the overexposed (he's in Six titles at the moment...and counting) merc with a mouth finds himself looting the fallen remains of Asgard where he runs into the Mighty Thor and we get a nice little don't ask don't tell moment in Three little panels.

enjoy.

Doodling with the ipad: Kitty sketch

I recently got my grubby fingers on an ipad, after testing it's ability to stream porn on the fly, I decided to try my luck at finger painting on the damn thing.

First I needed a serviceable app. that wouldn't cause me to throw the damn thing against the wall. I bought Art Studio for about $4.99 in the app store you get a nice set of tools to draw with (layers, brushes, pallets).

first I started doodling a Catwoman in the app with a .5 blue pencil just going at it like a fine napkin drawing like so:

Then I decided to try my luck at inking and coloring the damn thing, which didn't turn out too bad except for the murky background which couldn't be helped since I learned the layer controls after I started this piece.

The Hello kitty statue in the background was an afterthought ( so was the entire piece for that matter )

next up I started working on a Chun Li piece that I'll share once it's finished (you can see the sketches on my deviantart site) once that's finished, I'll start working on my characters for this story I've been siting on for a while.

later.

I can't make this $#!t up vol. # 533 : Raptor Jesus

Now I've seen my fair share of crazy $h!t online, from Italian spider-man to three girls and a cup but this one just had me giggling like a 5 year old wired on chocolate covered frosted sugar bombs.

Raptor Jesus has apparently been around for years ( Don't believe me? google it ya heathen ), people have been taking images the Lord and adding a Velociraptor head on them pissing off creationists and Darwinist all over the internet.

Me I just love me some weird internet buffoonery.


Here he is rocking dual Uzi's




Tending to the Lame ( in this case Professor Charles Xavier )


Laying hands


Shepherding the meek


Renaissance style


Or just taking care of business.

Star wars force unleashed 2 demo impression

As a star wars fan, I really enjoyed the first game so much so that I still find myself playing the original from time to time, even though some of Starkillers moves where a bit choppy it still made for some of the best star wars gaming available on current consoles.

( Lucas arts, get to work on that x-wing vs tie fighter for Ps3 pronto. )

Well I'm pleased to report that it looks like Vader's secret apprentice has been training in-between games with Kratos cause the kid is swift! Dual lightsabers moving with enough speed and grace to make the god of war himself green with envy. he also borrowed the "rage gauge" from Kratos, string together attacks and you gauge slowly fills, once filled click down on your L3 & R3 buttons and you can dole out insane combo moves at twice the speed.

The new Jedi mind trick move is awesome, sending hapless weak minded fools leaping to their death. I'm told that once upgraded this new ability will allow you to actually turn stormtroopers against each other but this feature was not available in the demo.

I was able to fight a carbonite spewing battle droid trying to bring me in alive, force grabbing plums of the substance and hurl it back at the droid, freeze it and take it apart with a variety of force powers.

If the demo is any indication this one's a winner, my only concern is the amount of levels and the games length but that I'll save for the review.

here's footage of the demo in action available now on xbox 360 and ps3!
