COMICS: Robinson Leaves Earth 2

Posted on by

James Robinson will no longer be writing Earth 2 after issue #16. He announced the leave on Twitter yesterday, along with an announcement of his full departure from DC’s writing stable. His words exactly.

So as of today I am leaving Earth 2 with Issue #16. It’s been a blast. Man, it’s a lovely day. Think I’ll take Rex to the beach.
Yes, this also means I’m no longer working at DC Comics. Best wishes and regards to Dan, Geoff and everyone.

Personally, I was thoroughly enjoying Earth 2 and am sad to see him go, but this at least feels a bit more amicable than most of the recent DC partings. Issue #16 will be in stores in October.

Posted on by

A Promo short for the new Hulk and the Agents of S.M.A.S.H., with Fred Tatasciore, the man voicing the Hulk, has been released by Marvel and Disney XD. It doesn’t show us much, but the premise behind the series seems a bit more uniquely entertaining than I would have originally assumed. Take the jump for the video.

Guillermo del Toro’s next film, Pacific Rim, is just around the corner (or a couple months out yet) and I know I’m seeing it as soon as I can.

Michael Bay cast Megan Fox as April O’Neil in the upcoming Turtles reboot, much to the fans’ chagrin. And while we aren’t expecting much to come of this, the first set photo has been released, and honestly, she doesn’t look half bad, but you can take the jump and see for yourself.

KICKSTARTER: Nerd’s Domain presents Masks of Nyarlathotep

Posted on by

You all enjoy a good live-play podcast right? What am I saying? Of course you do. Why else would you be listening to me on Critical HIt? Well, since we know you enjoy this type of thing, we here at Major Spoilers felt we should point out a way you can help in getting another one going.

Nerd’s Domain is a group of people quite like what we have here. When I went to GenCon last summer, one of the more fulfilling and entertaining things I did there was meet Matt Quiett, the man in charge over there, and a number of the other people that are going to be doing this podcast (I’m really bad with names sometimes, so I apologize for not knowing which). They are a fun group of people with the gaming experience needed to create something awesome. As well as being a likable group, they are going to be running in the Call of Cthulu 6th Edition and (at least initially) will be running the adventure Masks of Nyarlathotep, allowing you all to see something truly different from what we do here.
So take a look at what they’re doing over on Kickstarter and see if you can’t help get another good live-play going.
