The Making of a Modern Roman Gladius Sword

Pin It
I think every boy (perhaps every girl, for all I know) has at some point fantasized about wielding a brutal sword and tearing something to shreds. I've begged my wife to let me buy a sword in the past and eventually gave up on my fantasy for the sake of staying married. However, this video may resurrect a source of marital contention.....

Say what!?

The second most incredible Canadian is finally the star of a musical. This is awesome in so many ways.

Don't even try to pretend that this tank top wouldn't look fantastic on your wife or girlfriend or Mike Kearl. This is a piece of art. You can get one at Hot Topic if you want.

Shakespeare + Star Wars = The Ultimate #Nerdgasm

How do you create the perfect marriage of all things awesome?

You combine Shakespeare and Star Wars. Yes, this new book, William Shakespeare's Star Wars by Ian Doescher is just about the best piece of literature ever created - and I'm making that judgement without ever having read it.

Now naturally you'll be blessed with a more in-depth review once I actually receive my copy in the mail but I can't fathom how this jewel could be anything less than amazing. Aside from the absolutely genius story combination, the author has also made sure that the book is jam packed with Victorian style illustrations in a beautiful hard cover edition. To me this sounds divine. If you want a copy of your own, you can snag it at most online book sellers. Here's a link to it on Amazon.

Book Review: The Reanimation of Edward Schuett by Derek Goodman

The Reanimation of Edward Schuett by Derek J. Goodman
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I never thought I'd be able to find another zombie book as kick ass as World War Z was but then this little beauty came along! The Reanimation of Edward Schuett is what I've been waiting for for years - a fresh, totally unique zombie story that actually has a brain. Nothing like your traditional been-there-done-that, 'let's see who can create the most gory brain-eater' type of thing, The Reanimation of Edward Schuett reinvented the way we look at the undead. It actually gave them a soul. And I loved it!

This novel had it all - gore, action, science, emotionally-engrossing characters, and yes, even a bit of romance (that didn't make me want to puke!). It was everything I ask for in a novel. I just wish there were more of it.

I never even considered that any other book would take over the top spot over WWZ as my favorite zombie novel but I think Derek Goodman may have managed to do it here. It's a close call but they are so different from each other that I don't even feel like I have to choose! This is a zombie novel that anyone could swallow!

There are few things as awesomely nerdy as cosplay... although my thoughts of Lollipop Chainsaw have made me forget what those things are.

Artist Matthew Olin is the genius responsible for these typographical masterpieces.

possibly the most exciting video ever! #zombies

All of you doubters can suck on this video! So, now ask yourself how important it will be in the future to remain friends with me. Unlike you, I have been thoroughly preparing for the zombie apocalypse since I was a wee little laddy.

See if this vid doesn't freak you out a bit.

The What If... comics used to be some of my favs. Here are some that I'm pretty sure weren't in the franchise.

What better way could there be to prepare your little ones for the zombie apocalypse than to get them a teddy bear. Tell me that this doesn't look like the perfect gift for your little tyke. Every little kid dreams of a gory zombified teddy bear.... right?? 

Okay, even I'm not weird enough to get my kids something like this. 

even this can't make Comic-con bad
