Now at Broken Frontier are two recent interviews of mine. I spoke to writer Edmund Shern on his work on the Scar webcomic, which is part of the new ShiftyLook site that re-imagines classic arcade games as webcomics. I also interviewed the pair behind the thrilling OGN, The Art of War to be released in July [...]

He-Man, Pac-Man and Mega Man
I spoke yesterday at Perth’s Swancon about the DC relaunch of last year. The general consensus of my fellow panellists and the audience was that it has yet to work. However DC may be getting in my good books if July’s He-Man series from James Robinson and Phillip Tan is any good. This is a [...]

Arkham City Gets Better
I’ve only played a few minutes of Batman: Arkham City and in short, it’s awesome. It’s about to get awesomer though on November 1 when the Nightwing (the grown up original Robin) DLC gets released. His inclusion has been teased for a while, but this is the first in-game video to be shown. XworkZ Studios [...]

Batman’s Arkham City Skins
I still haven’t finished the first game to do Batman justice, Arkham Asylum and probably never will, but the sequel, Arkham City looks very tempting. It’s out on October 19 and also features Two-Face, Catwoman, Penguin and a few others, and even Robin, in a costume that looks like Tim Drake’s early version. Nice. I [...]

Movie studios are learning that if you can’t beat them, join them. Just one day after The Amazing Spider-Man trailer leaked online, Columbia have released the official version. The film stars Anderw Garfield (The Social Network) as Peter Parker and opens in July 2012. Time will tell if it’s too early for a reboot, but [...]

Batman: Arkham Asylum was the videogame that Batman deserved, and come October 18, we’ll get the sequel, with Catwoman, and Robin as playable characters (the latter only as a Best Buy DLC though). Baddies such as Two-Face, Riddler, Hugo Strange and Harley Quinn show up and Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill reprise their roles from [...]
