PARALLEL

McFarlane was god in the 90's

I ran into these cover homages and it took me back when I was a teenager and thought McFarlane was the end all be all of art. ever. Those were fun days. I went to an image signing and it was the coolest thing until the Neil Gaiman signing later on, that was even better. Comics in your teen years stick with you...

Playing this game is such a joy. It has such a personality. I have to give props to Sony for continuing to produce these even though as a mascot, Sackboy hasn't set the world on fire the way Mario does for Nintendo. The Little Big Planet games are so creative and allow the user to be just as creative and I think they should very well be used in middle school art classes. Anyways, here's the launch trailer and intro cinematic for the Vita version I got last week plus the announce trailer for their very interesting looking next game "Tearaway"

I made the wall of shadow draw back

I made the wall of shadow draw back,
beyond desire and act, I walked on.

Oh flesh, my own flesh, woman whom I loved and lost,
I summon you in the moist hour, I raise my song to you.

Rebus

My favorite Artist has a new book coming out. All of his books have been great additions to my library. I was FOOLISH enough to not get his first book Not Knowing it would go out of print and now be worth $175+. Never making that mistake again.
