Anonymous may have prevented the Westboro Baptist Church from picketing Aaron Swartz’ funeral.

Aaron Swartz.

Welcome to the new world, something like the old world. But with internet hackers, the flexing of muscle resembling the rumbling of keyboards, and uh. Such.

Hey there cool cats and pretty kitties of the Starship Omega! Pleasure to make your digital acquaintances. I am Nico The Intern. Some of you may know me from such things as, well, the comments section of this blog. Keep Reading »

Bethesda files trademark for ‘FALLOUT’ TV series. Can you dig it?

Fallout is fucking back

Well, shit. Maybe Three Dog ain’t returning to the video game hood, but rather providing his voice for a Fallout television series? As much as I would like to wander the Wasteland in an episodic format, I far prefer a new game. What say you?

Butcher Billy goes full NOLAN x BURTON on the ‘BATMAN’ movies.

Froggy fresh.

It is safe to just crown Butcher Billy as the hotness in the community at the moment. What community? Shoot, every community? Hot off of inserting classic Marvel art into the company’s movies comes this newest effort. The Nolan and Burton mash-up we don’t deserve. The one we need.

Paul Pope’s ‘BATTLING BOY’ is scheduled for October. Wrd.

Battling Boy.

October! October. It appears that October of 2013 is going to serve as the calendar month where all of the mythical projects we have been anticipating for a long minute will finally arrive. We’re not just getting Gravity, folks.In addition, Paul Pope will be gracing us with Battling Boy. I can only imagine how giddy this makes Rendar. I’m sort of excited, too. No, really! Look at my sweatpants. They’re dancing.

Snap! Alfonso Cuarón’s ‘GRAVITY’ has a release date. Srsly.

Alfonso Cuaron.

Could it be? Really? Alfonso Cuarón’s Gravity has an actual release date? I refuse to believe it. I deny its existence. Yet, I am happier now that this lie has come into my life. Shinier.

The Dude’s High 5s: Old School Cartoons

The Dude's High 5.

I used to love cartoons.  What happened?  Did I grow up?  Did I turn into a fun hating ogre?  I just think that most cartoons today suck. There’s a few here and there that I love (Venture Brothers, South Park), but for the most part, I don’t like them. My friends always joke that I never had a childhood.  They make assumptions that I was always the cynical dick that I present myself as.  Well, to throw a wrench in their plans, here are my favorite 5 cartoon shows from when I was a child.

Buy These Stinkin’ Comics! – Jan 15, 2013: Don’t deepthroat the rodents.

Welcome to Buy These Stinkin’ Comics!, the far too irregular/theoretically weekly comic book column. When this rotting husk of a column manifests, its intended use is to share the various comic titles that we are all interested in on a given week. Audience participation is requested – nay – required to make this monster’s heart beat. Should you not see a comic listed that you’re interested in (and you will, my taste generally is lacking), share it in the comments section. Let’s do this.

Warner. Bros wants to make Homer’s ‘ODYSSEY’ in space. Sold!

If executed well, Homer’s “Odyssey” in space could be frakin’ fantastic. Now, do I think it actually will be done well? Yeah, I don’t know about that. Do you know about that? Do you like the general idea? Let me know.

Joss Whedon on ‘AVENGERS 2’ and ‘S.H.I.E.L.D.’, hee-yay.

Joss Whedon can’t top 2012. He can’t. It was the year he bathed in the blood of delicious capitalist credits, and finally ascended to what many believe is his rightful place on the Geek Throne. Despite that, he is too young to retreat to a cave and live his days as an ascetic. So here is hoping talking about his next ventures.
