Monster of the Day #1773

I was surprised to learn how long Adventures In the Unknown ran, compared to a lot of other AEG titles. Looking over the covers, I especially liked the stark, early covers, which I eventually realized forwent dialog balloons and relied on start imagery instead. Art-wise we're definitely below EC here, but still, I likes…

Trailers….

With the big Comic Con happening, lots of trailers are coming out. Most of them I have no interest in, but a few caught my eye. You can check them out on YouTube. The trailer for Godzilla King of the Monsters does a good job of setting up a huge monsterfest (Godzilla, Mothra, Rodan,…

I kind of feel this is a spoiler, given that the monster apparently doesn't appear until the end, but here it is. This film has a nice reputation in a low-key sort of way, and would presumably make a good companion to another 80s monster in a mine flick The Boogens. I miss the…

RIP to Friday the 13th the Game, which will remain around awhile (and even do bug fixes and stuff). However, because of a lawsuit as to who owns what parts of the franchise, they can no longer add any new content to the game--even a rock or tree, they've said--and so the game will…
