Goodman Games

A bit off topic but here's an interesting article from Wired about Reaper's mega successful Kickstarter.

I read LotR in the fall when I had just turned 14, it was the first fantasy literature I had ever read. Two places come to mind every time I see the book's cover. The Hobbit, I remember staying w/ my Grandparents for a week and my Grandmother had picked up The Hobbit and the trilogy for me at my req...

Hey Caveman, I love the covers to those early editions of LotR. I have 2 of 'em and the early cover of The Hobbit. In high school ('78?) I had a t-shirt w/ the trilogy artwork from that edition on it. Wish I could find another (2 sizes bigger now).

Crowd funding for games has definitely shifted where a lot of the money I can spend ends up. There's a lot of really great new games out there and a lot of great deals too. I do think it's kind of unfortunate that established game companies are using Kickstarter and Indie-Go-Go to fund their project...

WOW...Prophet. I checked out an issue and man that's AWESOME! Art has a total Moebius Vibe. Pacing is pure Druilett. Reference points from the 60's through early 70s abound. Reminds me a bit of Jodorowsky and Pierre Bolle's original Planet of the Apes novel (which the 1968 movie was only loosely bas...

Yeah, I saw the clips and thought it looked great. Definitely want to see this movie happen.
Even if you can't donate much (or anything at all) support it spreading the word on your blogs, forums and in your social networks.

As if I didn't already have too much to read, you've just made me want to go reread Cerebus!

Good choices. Savage Sword sparked my interest in fantasy / sword and sorcery. I've recently started to revisit the magazine from the beginning. Northlanders is really intense. The few issues I've read remind me of R E Howard's stories in Tigers of the Sea . I forgot to include Prince Valient in my ...

I was reading Lone Sloane / Delirius by Phillipe Druillet this morning and thought, 'WOAH, this is packed w/ great ideas drenched w/ the flavor of Appendix N!'. Druillet's work was a staple of the sci-fi fantasy magazine, Heavy Metal , in the 70's. While his work is primarily sci-fi, it could easily...

Some info about Capt Kronos, nice article on Eccentric Cinema.

WOW, can't believe Alan Burt Akers, pseudonym of Kenneth Bulmer, hasn't been mentioned yet. 37 Dray Prescott novels published between '72 & '88. Sword & Planet fiction set on the planet Kregan. The 1st few Gor novels are worth reading. As the series went on Norman's sexual role playing inter...

Voted '82 but realized I actually started in '80 w/ my brother and a friend in my Grandmother's garage w/ AD&D. That made my friend and me 18 and my brother 14.

Did anyone notice the title of a book on the shelf of the magic user's study on page 105 in DCC RPG? It's on the back wall to the left. The only volume with a legible title written on the spine is "Hawkwind"!

Fantastic Planet, YES! I thought I'd be the only one to mention it. I've been thinking of creating stats for all the plants & creatures in that movie. Guess I ought to do it. Hammer has a bunch of movies that should be on this list, but the #1 Appendix N film has got to be, Capt. Kronos: Vampire...
