NYCCC’09 Commercials Debut

Annoying Gaming Habits, and How to Deal with Them

Tabletop roleplaying games, as well as LARPs are exercises in social contracts. Whenever a group of people sit down to play they all have to agree on the system, the arbitration of said system and on hundreds of unspoken rules. Of course, in this hodgepodge system there's always room for someone to start rocking boats, rattling cages and tipping over cows.

Interview: Dustin Nguyen

Batman: Streets of Gotham artist Dustin Nguyen has brought to life characters of the DCU with his unique and striking art style. Dustin’s art work can also be found in the pages of Wildstorm, Supernatural, and the Friday the 13th books. A favorite among comic fans, I had the pleasure to speak with him about his career, comics and the return of Bruce Wayne.

Just Some Random Guy has posted his latest work featuring the action figures from the Marvel Universe promoting the New York City Comic Con.

Why no DC Characters? DC said no to using its figures. Killjoys.

Random Note From Random Guy: No, we’re not changing our Spider-Man action figure. We’re just complying with Marvel’s request that we not use Spider-Man action figures from the movies in these NYCC videos.

  Since it falls into the parody category, he can do pretty much what he wants. In the case of Marvel, they actually like his work (hence helping him get Stan Lee to voice his own action figure), and were the ones who approached him last year to do the commercial ads for the NYCC.
