I can’t wait for the official Prometheus trailer dropping…today? Or is it tomorrow? It’s soon! Soon man. This week of trailers has my brovaries throbbing. Throbbing so hard! Want a still of Magneto holding a flashlight in anticipation of the trailer? Hell yeah. Get some.
Hideo Kojima’s Next Game Is Set In ‘Very Open World’, No Word On Philosophical Vomiting.
Hideo Kojima was on CNN recently promoting his metaphysical vitamin supplement called Scissors 61! (this is a lie) and he began to talk about his next game codenamed Project Ogre.
Hubble Brings Us A Horseshoe Einstein Ring. Is It Lucky? Rimshot.
Man, I can’t help myself with the bad puns. That may or may not be because it’s currently 3:00 am while I write this fucker up. Truth be told we all know regardless of the time I’ll rip off something glorious like that. Anyways, what exactly is causing that horseshoe effect? Gravity! Einstein told us so.
Artwork: The 25 Year evolution of LINK and ZELDA. Point ears intact!
Hyrule Historia is an upcoming Legend of Zelda art book. It’s only been confirmed for a Japanese release, and that means unless you have the mad cheddah brah, you probably won’t be snagging it. Want a preview? A lil’ taste?
Hit the jump for two pages chronicling the evolution of Link and Zelda. Pretty swell.
1969 Plan To Build Second Nuke-Proof Manhattan Below New York City. Cold War Porn!
Ah, the Cold War! Aside from all that insane amount of blood shed, useless money spent on arms development, psyche scarring, governments overthrown just because we didn’t agree with their potential socialist bent, and more, it produced some pretty cool retro-future stuff. Such as? This plan for a second Manhattan underneath New York City.
Variant Covers: Get Friggin’ Drunk, Batman’s Black Hole Is Coming.
Glory be to you, comic book friends. It’s 10:42 on Tuesday evening as I burp this out of a chemical-coated caffeine ravaged mind, and I’m writing it with a bit of a grin. ‘Tis the season for days off and leisurely loitering as we go into a collective slumber until January 2. How are you? Not rhetorical, how you doing? Hit me. This is Variant Covers, the comics column where I talk about this week’s releases that I’m either snagging, wish I was snagging, or am curious about. Per usual drop a line on what you’re digging, I’m always looking for new hotness in my greasy mitts.
Let’s party.

It’s a fucking trailer for The Hobbit. What more do I need to say?
Hit the jump, watch it, drop your impressions in the comments.
Christopher Nolan: Bane’s Voice Is Awesome, Shut The F**k Up.
Chalk me up as one of the guys and gals who couldn’t understand a fucking word out of Bane’s mouth during the IMAX prologue. Whether it was because IMAX is always bass-y or because I’ve been to too many concerts or because as the wave of criticism suggests it’s fucking unintelligible, I couldn’t. Christopher Nolan don’t care!
Review: Joe Danger Special Edition
I love chainsawing anthropomorphic killer insects, decapitating bandits and poking around bloody crime scenes as much as the next man, I really do. But as 2011 draws to a close, I’ve started to get all introspective about my gaming habits. I’ve drawn the grim conclusion that the stench of death and destruction hangs heavy over nearly all of my digital indulgences this year. Thank God then for Hello Games and their PSN downloadable hit Joe Danger: now spruced up and gift wrapped in a timely fashion for the 1% of XBOX 360 owners that were craving something colourful.
Dexter Showrunner Talks About Season Finale Shocker and Show’s End Game.

The last minute or so of this season of Dexter was really the only thang I enjoyed about the entire enterprise. I’m hoping they’ll ride the shocker into a final two seasons of the show that rock my Casbah, and comments from Dexter’s showrunner have me keeping the faith. Loosely.
