Did you really miss me?


Some things never change. And one of those things I can promise you, is that I am a gamer. Its been a year since I last gave anyone a peep to me being alive. I've mainly been living my life and figuring things out. Much has passed, moved on and for lack of anything else, fallen to dust.

The notion has struck me, that I have the time now - even with going back to school - that I have the time to actually write. The question came do I write for this blog or the other blog. Well, my choice was this one as I am still a 100% gamer. But I've not done anything news worthy in the Model world. And I'm not sure if I will to be honest. But given geeky things happen everyday - why not talk about that?

Seriously?...Seriously? Spiderman 4 News..


Okay, so I was reading over Topless Robot today and found something that made me want to punch my monitor. I can't even describe the horrid information I viewed. I feel bad for TR having to write the article about it. For Shame! Spider man 1 & 2 were great - better then expected given Hollywood's comic to movie history. 3 was a bit of a cluster fuck but I know many nerds that got over it and forgave them. Even enjoyed it.

But from what TR has posted, is this the end of good nerd movies? That they would screw up the story of a CLASSIC comic this far in to a franchise? A story that was ONLY mucked up when they did the "One More Day.." Story line that fucking reset things that had been going on for over fifteen years.

Fail.

You can read the article here.

Kick-Ass Comic.. is real?!

Okay, I'm going to bed shortly but I found this video and nearly fell off my chair.

Last fall a comic called " Kick-ass" was put out. It was about a kid who read comics, and was inspired to be a SuperHero. He makes a costume and then sets about to stop crime, well.. try. He gets his ass handed to him and is hospiltized. Others though, hearing of his attempt to do good decied to do the same. The boy is shocked to find out that he's managed to inspire people to be Superheros.

Well it seems a group of people have brought the comic to life. Seriously. Heres a video about one of them from my home state of Ohio. A new level to taking back the streets?

Epic Red Dragon is a piece of Cake.. Litterly!!




All that is geek and great rejoice. I was highly amused to come across a picture post. So much so, that I felt the need to share with the geeks who read this. A Epic Red Dragon Cake. *squeal of joy* The dragon sits a top a mega mat play mat with gold coins scattered about its massive body and a extremely large D20 under its front right paw. With a commanding gaze and a knowing smirk of the ass kicking it will/would have in store for some poor adventurers - that is if it wasn't a great Geek Birthday Cake!

Now if your interested in having this hansom devil of a dragon grace a table for your next Geek Event, it only cost a easy $750. Much credit for the brilliant creation of this delicious monster goes to the baker, a Mike McCarey of Mike’s Amazing Cakes.

More pictures after the jump!
