Batman: Arkham Origins Official Trailer

 

The first full trailer for the newest game in the Batman: Arkham series of video games, titled Batman: Arkham Origins, is finally here. There's no sign of what the gameplay will look like yet but the scene in this video is pretty indicative of how intense this game will be. Stay tuned for tomorrow's big Xbox announcement. It's going to be an expensive Christmas this year for me and pre-teens around the world...

Robert Ellis Pays Tribute to the Late George Jones

 

 

Here's a video of Robert Ellis paying a beautiful tribute to George Jones. I defy you to not be as transfixed with this performance as I was.

Free Comic Book Day 2013!!!

Wolverine politely invites you to visit your local comic shop for FCBD 2013.

 

 

Free Comic Book Day 2013 is upon us! Make sure to visit your local comic shop on May 4th for the best sales of the year, free comic books and lots of other freebies. I usually pick up about 4-8 free comics and check out the sales going on at my favorite comic shop, Bedrock City Comics. They have 4 locations, including Westheimer (just outside the loop), Bay Area Blvd & Highway 3, FM 1960 & Veterans Memorial, and near the Heights on Washington. I'll probably also be stopping by Third Planet on 59 near Kirby to see what they have. If you want to find a comic shop near you, check out this handy Store Locator to find all the participating comic shops in your city.

 

Every year, publishers put out exclusive stories and special edition reprints in the form of free comic books. Shown below are just a few of the awesome comics being offered on FCBD. You can visit the comics page on Free Comic Book Day's website to see all 52 of the comics offered on Saturday.

 

 

So make sure to take advantage of this freebie fest on Saturday, May 4th. Even if you're not into comics, go see what they have to offer at your local shop and give it a try. And for those of you with kids, they have tons of youth-oriented comics for their little innocent eyes. I know I can't wait to have kids and bring them to the comic shop every year for this event...and every Wednesday in between.

 

May the 4th be with you! (had to say it)
