November 4, 2011 5:12 pm I had heard that, but I believe their tool set ia focused on D&D 4. I am not a big fan of that setup. I prefer games like Enchiridion, Burning Wheel, Dogs in the Vineyard, 3:16, and what have you.

UNCANNY X-MEN #1
November 4, 2011 4:28 pm The X-men are on utopia because Cyclops wanted to have all mutants in one place to protect them.
The Celestial is an unknown, other than what they are in the Marvel U (which is too complex to explain here)
Sinister is equally complex - a quick summary is that he is an evil geneticist who is dedicated to creating a super species.
Magneto is a good guy because comic book logic. Just go with that one.
Major is an X-man because he is actually a mutant in his species.
Danger is a sentient version of the Danger Room that joined the team a few years ago. She has had very little development beyond that.
Read back 2 issues for the answer about Colossus. The original Juggernaut is caught up in Fear Itself BS I am not reading.
Juggernaut's powers are derived from Cytorrak, some sort of demon god of destruction. Those powers have the sad side effect of making a person... very grumpy.
Dr. Nemesis is a super scientist and one of the first mutants. Also, hates Nazis. Do we know anyone who likes them?
SWORD was introduced in Whedons excellent run, which you should read if you like the Slender at all. They are basically an outerspace SHIELD.
She is the leader of SWORD.
What Sinister did is outside his normal scope. Presumably related to the Celestial creation powers.
Anything else?

The Best of the Week in Panels – 11.02.2011
November 3, 2011 11:00 pm I loved the panel in Invincible where he is just standing next to Dinosaurs in the jail cell. Very nice, dense and claustrophobic. Also, good choice on the Emma panel. I love her wry, dry austerity... it plays very we'll with me.

Game Over: Marvel Going Fully Day and Date Digital
November 3, 2011 5:45 pm This announcement, while welcome, makes me believe that DCs push to digital was very successful. Anyone know where we can see numbers on those sales? I haven't found any.

November 2, 2011 5:23 pm Economics is a big hobby for me. So much so I am considering a go at grad school. American style football is a passion. I love LMMA. Tabletop gaming is great fun when it can be had. History in general is interesting to me but I have a particular love for Rome and the succeeding Dark Ages, feudal Japan and the Wild West.

November 2, 2011 5:13 pm Oh I do love a good tabletop game. If you think comics is niche... try that hobby on.
