Star Wars Battlefront II

Star Wars Battlefront II is an upcoming action shooter video game based on the Star Wars film franchise. It is the fourth major installment of the Star Wars: Battlefront series and seventh overall, and a sequel to the 2015 reboot of the series. It is under development by EA DICE in collaboration with Criterion Games and Motive Studios, and published by Electronic Arts.Unlike its 2015 predecessor, it features a story-driven single-player campaign and multiplayer character classes; it also features cross-era characters and locations from the original, prequel and sequel Star Wars movie trilogies The game is scheduled to be released worldwide on November 17, 2017 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Microsoft Windows.

I played this a full three years after it came out, and much like the three Disney sequel movies, it’s a beautiful game with a compelling universe to play in, but falls absolutely flat. I didn’t play any of the multiplayer, as I played a few hours of the first one’s and grew tired of it within minutes, so I know that I wasn’t going to enjoy more of the same here.

For the single player campaigns, there were no show stopping bugs to be had, but the gameplay was not as dialed in as I would expect from a SW game, especially after playing Fallen Order, but maybe the lessons learned from SWBF2 is why Fallen Order was so much better. There was white text on white backgrounds,broken loot boxes, but even with all that I still think I enjoyed both campaigns. Oh, did I not mention? there’s two campaigns here, which I appreciate, but now know I absolutely hated having a whole other story dumped on me. The second part was blissfully short, but was more of the same floaty nonsense that the main campaign had. I remember something like this happening in a Batman LEGO game and I just straight up quit the game.

You can safely skip this game unless you’re super interested in the story elements, but I think your time would be better spent on wikipedia reading the plot in 5 minutes than spending 20 hours playing through it yourself.

New MCS Feature: Tags On Search Pages

Now, when you search on MCS, you’ll get some suggested tags first, because if you’re looking for Batman, maybe you should know of the 20 other Batman tags?

Interestingly enough, this is something I figured out how to do on StarTrekBookClub.com, where I figured out how to include author search results on the same page as book and blog results.

Kamandi Challenge

Kamandi, Jack Kirby’s beloved post-apocalyptic Last Boy on Earth, fights for his survival and the fate of all humankind in a world overrun by intelligent tigers, giant robot leopards, edible plant people and even more wonders. But this is no ordinary comics story. Each all-star creative team leaves Kamandi in a death-defying cliffhanger, and it’s up to the next storytellers to pick up the gauntlet and figure out how Kamandi will survive! The result is a wild comics ride that’s worthy of the King himself! Take up the challenge and see how a combination of comics legends and today’s best creators–including Tom King (Batman), Neal Adams (Green Lantern/Green Arrow), James Tynion IV (Detective Comics), Bill Willingham (Fables), Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti (Harley Quinn), Ivan Reis (Justice League), Walter Simonson (Orion) and more–set out the ultimate challenge for their fellow creators! Collects The Kamandi Challenge #1-12.

I found this complete collection at a local book thrift store and devoured it all in a single reading session. It’s intentionally cheesy, intentionally weird, and made me stop and think at the end of every issue, “how is he going to survive?!”. More importantly, it was ‘how is the author of this story’ going to save him, as well as “how was the author of the previous story going to do it” which then prompts, “If I were going to write it, how would he be saved?”. There’s two parts of this book that really struck me, one was an ending where Kamandi’s entire set of internal organs had been taken out and put in jars, and yet he barely lived (I would have done differently what they did to save him), and another entire story that was written by Kevin Eastman of TMNT fame.

Comic Pulls up to the week of June 5 2020

It’s been so long since I’ve done one of these, I didn’t even remember how to do them! There’s plenty of books that were supposed to come out that still havent’ made their ways to your local shop, then other books that have only been released to select shops, then books that have been announced as released but no one seems to have a copy of them anywhere.

The big book this week that I’m 100% sure is out is the 100 page Catwoman 80th Anniversary book with it’s wallet breaking variant covers. I didn’t get the cover I wanted (that 90’s one is gorgeous) but I did enjoy the stories inside. Have you been able to pick up book lately?

Robert Pattinson’s Batmobile is a… Muscle Car

The Batman director Matt Reeves has just unveiled a few pictures of Robert Pattinson’s Batmobile… and it has a bit of the look of an oldschool muscle car? It kind of looks like a modified Dodge Challenger. Check it out: [Source: Matt Reeves on Twitter]

DC Comics Joker Statue by Jim Shore

Why so serious? You should get a good laugh out of this DC Comics Joker Statue by Jim Shore. The base even says “HaHaHaHaHaHa” on it! Looking as dapper and demonic as ever, The Joker wears his DC Comics look graced with that famous Jim Shore touch. The Clown Prince of Crime measures about 8 1/4-inches tall and is fashioned of polyresin and calcium carbonate. He would look great standing next to the DC Comics Batman 3D Comic Book Cover Statue by Jim Shore (sold separately) in your collection!

John Carter The End

Centuries have passed and time has taken its toll on Mars. Conflict burns across the landscape. A war of supremacy and genocide at the hands of a brutal despot has brought the planet to the edge of collapse. A search party has finally located an aged John Carter and Dejah Thoris, living in quiet seclusion on a desert moon, in perpetual mourning for their lost son. How could they be Mars’ last hope?

Introducing a John Carter story like you’ve never seen before, from co-writers Brian Wood (Star Wars, DMZ, Northlanders) and Alex Cox (Adventure Time), joined by artist Hayden Sherman (Civil War II: Kingpin).

Reviews:
“Hayden Sherman does a great job… It is primitive and powerful. Each panel looks dangerous, like you could be sliced to ribbons by the cliff faces.” – Comic Crusaders
“It never occurred to me that John Carter and Batman would have much in common, but I hadn’t read John Carter: The End yet.” – Slack Jaw Punks
“A perfect continuation for the stories of Edgar Rice Burroughs and the characters of Barsoom. This should please, delight and thrill old and new fans alike.” – Outright Geekery

I’ve been getting more and more interested in the John Carter mythos, first introduced to me by the Disney movie, and this was my first purchase of Carter comics that I’ve been able to get around to reading. I have the adaptation around my office somewhere, just need to dig it out and read it.

I realize that starting with a series named “The End” was likely a bad idea, but there wasn’t anything here that was confusing, and the issues were only $1 each during the annual MidTown sale.

Here’s the book that I was most impressed with it’s cover: leagueofcomicgeeks.com/comic/4679913/john-carter-the-end-3?variant=8038692

Fantastic, isn’t it?
