This is the first image of the Moon by a U.S. spacecraft. Neato.
This is the “first picture taken of the moon” by U.S. spacecraft. “First.” If you believe that, I got a fucking bridge to sell you. I have it on good authority that the U.S. has had a base on the Dark Side of the Moon since Teddy Roosevelt’s first administration. Studying the Martians. Preparing. Always preparing.

PlayStation whuppin’ continues, outsells Xbox 3:1 in Q1 2014
Now fucking listen! I own both the DelayStation 4 (LOL I HATE MYSELF FOR PUNS) and the XBONE (I STILL HATE MYSELF), so I have no real vested interest in the console wars. Actually, maybe I want really healthy competition so both companies push themselves. That said — and I don’t know why — I do enjoy watching Sony continuing to roll Microsoft by their fucking ears. (And for those of you who want to point this out, I realize Sony doesn’t differentiate between PS3 and PS4 sales.)
Buy These Flippin’ Comics!!! (7.29.14) Fraction/Aja Post-Eisner Victory Lap
Some folks, after a huge critical and creative success, are content to rest on their laurels. Some winners are one-and-done, fading back into the heaping middle of mediocrity with the rest of the world. But for creators Matt Fraction & David Aja, fresh off of their 2014 Eisner win for “Best Single Issue,” laurel-resting is not an option. Step inside and let’s talk about another landmark issue of a book destined to be talked about for years to come, an issue that is a storytelling force of nature, and one that puts a target on other creators’ backs. And peeps, lemme tell ya – Hawkeye never misses.
A full list of this week’s comics can be found right HERE.
‘Interstellar’ Trailer: Couldn’t You Have Told Her?
Oh man. I have it on good authority (Christopher Nolan+The First Two Trailers) that this movie is going to break me. In all the best ways possible.
Nintendo posts $97 Milli loss last quarter. Luigi gives console market the Death Stare
I’ll cop to it. I didn’t buy a Wii U when Mario Kart 8 came out. So I hold myself personally responsible for Nintendo’s ass-sucking financial quarter. I mean — surely I must lead by example, right? I gotta get on this.
First poster for ‘The Hateful Eight’! Confirms 2015 release.
When things heat up, they fucking heat up! Hot off the heels of Tarantino’s confirmation that The Hateful Eight will be a thing comes a poster for the flick! Here’s a fucking plot synopsis, too!
‘Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare’ Campaign Trailer: Power and Mech Suits 4 All
I consider it something of a personal flaw that I love the Call of Duty franchise. Love it while acknowledging that its brotastic jingoism certainly strives for the Lowest Common Denominator. And there it finds me. Covered in Diet Mountain Dew cans, Doritos flakes, and a raging hard-on to take down injustice everywhere. For America.
EA rolling out Xbox One subscription. $5 a month for their “best” games.
How badly do you want to suckle upon the teat of Electronic Arts and their “best” games? Because for $5 a month, or $30 a year, you’re going to be able to have access to them through an upcoming subscription service. Would you? For me — it would depend on how soon you get new releases? Like, I don’t need to pay for your backlog, EA. Anything you’re publishing that’s worth playing I’m going to buy day one.
Diamond: Comic sales drop, merchandise and graphic novels sales rise
Man. I watched The Image Revolution last week, and the most staggering thing about it was how many fucking issues some comic books sold. After being reminded that countless top titles sold 300,000+ issues a month, following sales figures has become really interesting.
