Here’s The Gameplay Trailer For Batman: Arkham Origins

by Jill Pantozzi | 1:15 pm, June 11th, 2013

We finally get to see what gameplay looks like for the forthcoming Batman: Arkham Origins video game. It’s not quite as good as the previous trailer, which made me wish they’d just make a movie instead, but it’s pretty good. I just hope the entire game isn’t you getting shot at every 5 minutes.

Pinhead Does Children’s Parties, and Other Stories from Kiersten Essenpreis’ “Day Off” Series

by Susana Polo | 10:14 am, June 11th, 2013

Kiersten Essenpreis has created a series of prints hypothesizing what various villains, monsters, and cartoon characters do on their days off. On my day off, I went to the Museum of Natural History, but nobody made a drawing of me. (Actually, oddly enough, somebody did. But it’s funnier to say otherwise, so the artist will have to forgive me.)

by Jill Pantozzi | 2:32 pm, June 8th, 2013

Eric Guzman has some great DC and Marvel animated-style illustrations on his DeviantArt page but it’s his recent mashups that really caught our eye. He combined the general costume ideas for two character to create something incredibly unique. So much so, I’m already trying to figure out how I can pull off Poison Scorpion. And he put some real thought into which two superheroes or villains would come together best. Take a look.

Francesco Francavilla’s Batploitation Gives Us Gotham Circa 1972

by Jill Pantozzi | 10:15 am, June 6th, 2013

Artist Francesco Francavilla does a spectacular job when he’s drawing Batman in our current time but what happens when he decides to take a trip back to the Disco-riffic 70s? ”I have been tinkering recently with a ElseWorlds story/take on Batman set in that 70s styling. So, from the pages of PULP SUNDAY, I give you BATMAN 1972!” he wrote. ” Yes, you are witnessing the first case of BATPLOITATION.” Take a look and see if you this his Comissioner Gordon, Catwoman, and The Riddler, are out-of-sight.

Henry Cavill Would Love To See A Superman/Batman Meeting On The Big Screen

by Jill Pantozzi | 11:46 am, May 24th, 2013

Fans have longed to see Superman and Batman team up in live-action on the big screen for a long time but if our new Man of Steel Henry Cavill had his way, we’d see them fight first.

Cake or Nerdy Cake?

by Susana Polo | 10:13 am, May 21st, 2013

The Black Cherry Cake Company is all out of cake. They didn’t realize there’d be such a rush. All they have left are these adorable geeky cakes.

Okay, the Walker ears definitely don’t count as adorable, but Daryl sure does.

This Batman: Arkham Origins Trailer Makes Me Wish It Were A Movie Rather Than A Video Game

None of this is gameplay but I’m kind of speechless right now. I need these people to get to work on a feature film immediately.
