Yo mods, if this ain't cool, just hit DEL. Hello fellow TZ members, You've been invited to check out my new website that I hope to use to showcase original fantasy/sci-fi writing and art, http://americanfantastic.com. What is American Fantastic, anyway? American Fantastic is a community...

I'd be happy if Capcom just released each one of their old arcade fighters for about $10 per game. Marvel Superheroes is the one I want the most. Do newer games like MvsC2 even need an HD treatment? Their graphics were way better than SFII, so it seems like it would be less of an improvement...

Ooh, ooh, I got one. Peter Parker loses his Spider powers in Ultimatum, so his female clone must take the mantle for him for a few months. When she dies, Peter miraculously regains his powers and decides to fight crime once again. It would be cool if BMB retold the "Spider-Man Retires"...

That at least sounds like a fairly original idea.

I'm not going to quote Wolf Boy2's entire post, but it basically sums up my ideas about the stagnation of superhero comics. If the companies actually let big changes happen, and let them stay permanent instead of retconning everything to death (and yes, Norman Osborn coming back from the dead...

Yay Marvel. Good job making the Ultimate line "unique" by rebooting some of the series just like you did in the 616 universe a few years ago. I wonder how long it will take before my favorite random character killed off in Ultimatum is resurrected. Sigh...as long as BMB is around, I'll...

I still see him leading H.A.M.M.E.R and being thought of as a "hero" for the Skrull war as being in the same vein as the old storyline of Luthor being elected president. It just feels like a re-tread and something that's been done before; an old arch-villain who tricks the masses into giving...

Eddie knew Spider-Man was Peter Parker as soon as the symbiote bonded with him. The symbiote "told" Eddie all about Peter since it viewed Peter, as an ex-host who rejected it, as its greatest enemy. One of the early Venom stories that Todd McFarlane drew actually shows Eddie coming over to...

In my opinion, bringing back a long dead character, especially one with as poignant a death as Norman's, cheapens the legacy of the old stories. It sucks to keep a classic character dead for so long, only to bring him back so you can use him as a "mastermind" villain. It's heartbreaking to...

At fictionpress, they have a forum for getting feedback. Authors give the previous reply's story feedback (on the actual story), and then leave their own title to request feedback. Their rules are simple: give two qualities of the story you like, explaining why, and explain why you think two...

I enjoyed this story. It's very funny, and uses Scientology to give the story a good sense of humor. I liked seeing Tom Cruise in the role of a super-villain. His character was hilarious; I especially like the part where he went Cyclops and shot red beams from his eyes. You need to develop...

Vice doesn’t have any leads on the corner that Rome’o gave to Murikami. “The problem,” explains Det. Stanton, Vice’s lead dayshift supervisor, “is these corners change hands too often. Either a new crew handles them, or boys get placed into juvie, so it’s hard to pin down any one suspect to a...

I agree. Great game, but it ran very poorly on my PC. I still played past the part where you find the elves' settlement. It was made by a splinter group from Black Isle (Baldur's Gage, Fallout 1&2) called Troika and you can tell by the appearance. This is an amazing premise (fantasy world...

Even if Disney doesn't pick up season 3, it should go back to the CW or another animation network. Barring that, Marvel (I hope) would be able to produce DTV DVD's of the season, perhaps creating 3 or 4 "movies" based on the season's episodes. There's been too much invested in these episodes...

By John Beechem a.k.a. "Guerillacropoli" Detective Ryu Murikami casts his shadow upon an unidentified male corpse that was found in an alleyway off 3rd Ave. in the Central District. The CD, as it is referred to by its residents, has had its ups and downs recently. Despite the recent wave of...
