NOOOOOOOO!!!

I am sad to hear that the Blue Panther was unmasked by Villano V on 75th Anniversary CMLL. Being unmasked is the ultimate form of humiliation in Lucha Libre. Once you're unmasked you can never wear your mask again. Villano V!? Come on, Blue Panther! For shame!

Diesel: SFX XXX

What a brilliant way to promote the Diesel XXX Party! I think they should have gone a bit more subtle at times... but overall it's hilarious.

YouTube may take it down soon...so if you can't watch the video below check it out at it's original location by CLICKING HERE.

Wario YouTube Chaos

You HAVE to check out this YouTube video. Unfortunately, I can't embed the video based on the way it was made. But I guarantee it's worth your time! Link for the video can be found after the jump.

It looks like this is the week for old school gaming. First we have the release of the 8bit Mega Man 9. Now Nintendo is releasing the beautiful Wario Land Shake It for the Nintendo Wii. Nice.

The new Wario game doesn't look like it's bringing any new gameplay elements to the world of 2D gaming. The more novel elements are taken from the legendary SMW2: Yoshi's Island. But I'm still very much planning to pick this game up as it has some of the be prettiest 2D graphics I have seen in a long time. 2D graphics are as much about style as they are about polish... and this game has both in spades! Adding fuel to the fire, Nintendo hired Production IG (animation company behind Ghost In The Shell) to do the animated introduction.

Crazy Alan Moore...

If his writing wasn't so brilliant, you'd think Alan Moore was a loon. While most men's midlife crises equate to wanting a hot young dame and a sportscar... Alan Moore quit comics for a few years to explore and practice Magick by means of worshiping a snake sock puppet.

These days, he's shunned Hollywood pursuits at adapting his comics to film... so much so that he gives all the money he makes on them to his artistic collaborator. Now he's claiming that the current legal disputes over the Watchmen film may be the result over the Curse he place on the film.

You gotta love the man!

Mega Man 9 on Monday

Mega Man 9 on the Nintendo Wii in all it's 8bit glory this upcoming Monday. I can't wait. This is particularly intriguing because it's being made by Capcom in the retro 8-bit style with the original creator of Mega Man excluisively for download. If this game sells well, I'm sure we'll see other prominent game makers revisit old franchises using the "retro" 8-bit/16-bit style. There's something about Mega Man that has it best served in 8-bit visuals. I can't wait to check out the latest as soon as it comes out.

Incognito

I'm looking forward to the Incognito Comic by Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips. I love what they did on both Criminal and Sleeper. I'm sure Incognito will be of the same caliber of quality. Here's a 2 page teaser that they debuted to build some hype. I can't wait for the real deal.
