I’m sure I’m the last geek to the party on this one, but I finally got around to watching some of The Guild. If you’re not familiar with it, The Guild is an independent sitcom web series about a group of online gamers. It stars Felicia Day, who also created the series and writes it. […]

Here is a Dungeons & Dragons advertisement that ran in comic books in mid-1981. The lack of color, amateur artwork, inconsistent lettering, and ridiculous scripting is appalling. This ad is simply terrible. With that said.. I LOVE IT! This pathetic little ad inspired me to try roleplaying and seek out further comic adventures of these […]

The Battlestar Galactica Colorforms Adventure Set Deluxe Edition was released in 1978. I remember playing with these and other Colorforms sets for hours and hours. Somewhere along the line I lost my BSG Colorforms, but my good buddy Ravenface was kind enough to supply me with a set he bought in a garage sale back […]
