Fictional Character Crushes: Don’t Pretend You Don’t Have Them

Sara's Top Fandom Crushes. Apparently, I kind of have a "type." Don't judge. ;-)

by Sara Goodwin Mar 13th

Different characters can "speak" to different parts of our psyche at different times in our lives and heck, let's be honest - at different times of the same day. I have broken down my fictional crushes into some categories to help organize my thoughts on the matter. Feel free to share your own crushes and opinions in the comments!

Review: Greg Weisman’s Rain of the Ghosts

Review

by Alan Kistler Mar 21st

Rain of Ghosts features a headstrong and affable female hero, supernatural forces, an ethnically diverse cast, banter, and hidden mysteries. If all of that isn't enough to entice you, this novel is written by Greg Weisman. The creator of the 1990s Gargoyles cartoon, Weisman has also been show runner for the cartoon series The Spectacular Spider-Man, W.I.T.C.H. and Young Justice, and is now executive producer of the upcoming Star Wars Rebels. Now he's released his first novel, the first of a young adult series featuring Native American teenager Rain Cacique.

Our Adorable Past

by Jill Pantozzi Mar 25th

Last week we were thrilled beyond belief to learn Capcom has created DuckTales: Remastered, a video game that harkens back to the classic Nintendo game based on the animated series. Here now with some 90s nostalgia is an updated look at Greg Weisman's Gargoyles. This series holds a special place in my heart, not just for the characters and storylines, but voice actors as well. DeviantArtist Digital Tofu illustrated much what I'd expect from a CGI reboot of the series. Take a look for yourself.

by Rebecca Pahle Jan 26th

There's a chapel in France where the gargoyles are super-geeky. No, I'm not talking about this kind of geeky gargoyle. I mean that some architectural spirit animal of mine made gargoyles inspired by geeky movies and TV. If you like Alien and Gremlins and are somewhat macabre and inclined to matrimony, I think I've found the perfect place for you to get hitched.
