I’ve spent some time recently with FunCom’s newest MMO, The Secret World and, while I am in love with the “real world” setting, the storytelling, and the classless combat system, there are some…issues with the game’s overall world. My biggest concern is that the rest of the world’s inhabitants outside of the three factions are … Continue reading

Introducing Wrobel’s Wednesday Review
Hey, guys! I don’t have a whole lot to say today, but I wanted to take a second to introduce a new feature for the Wednesday blog: Wrobel’s Wednesday Review! Every Weds (or, as often as he has them ready) my I will include a video game review written by my friend, Brian. I will … Continue reading
A New Focus
I’m not sure if I should start these off with some kind of standard greeting or just go right into whatever it is I’m going to say. That said, I guess I’ll go with a traditional greeting for now and we’ll play it by ear in the future. So… Heya, guys! I want to talk … Continue reading
Stalk U
Okay, first off, let me say that I’m not entirely in the comic Ray’s corner here. Though I think that Nintendo may be relying a bit too much on “fancy-schmancy” controllers and interactivity gimmicks for their consoles over the last several “generations,” I don’t feel that the Wii U is going to do as poorly … Continue reading
Pawn Gone
Okay, the fist thing you should know is that I had little to no expectations for Capcom’s new third-person RPG,Dragon’s Dogma. That said, I am absolutely in love with it. The story they’re telling is fairly cut-and-paste in its set-up of “ancient evil awakens and threatens the world and gives the hero a reason for … Continue reading
The Old Republic: Old Friends page 5
Here’s the next page in the Adventures of Tymn and Rayloth! I’m still using this as a means to experiment with styles for Fyreball, so you’ll notice that the style from page to page here may shift a little. For instance, I was testing the slightly random brush strokes of the coloring style I’ve … Continue reading
The Dead Be Walkin’…
I sit in the back of a police cruiser as it makes its way out of Atlanta at a pace that is somehow equally comforting and agonizingly terrifying; I have done something terrible and I am being ferried to my punishment. I watch the landscape outside pass by with the longing of a man who … Continue reading
Don’t Ask, Don’t Draw
As with most comics, this was inspired by a real conversation. That said, though, there are a few things you should know right away. One….I don’t actually use my junk to draw with; though I have discovered that it is possible to use your personal touch-screen device with said, uh, digit. No, I won’t elaborate. … Continue reading
Daily Sketches
Okay, I’m going to try and do a daily sketch as “daily” as possible. If you know me personally, you know that my day job doesn’t always allow for that. But, when it does, or when it’s off, I’m going to try and do a sketch on which I spend less than 30 minutes from … Continue reading
Quite a Journey…
As the comic says, I tried to write a joke that could capture my thoughts on ThatGameCompany‘s latest addition to the “Games as Art” arguement… But my brain shut down after I started playing. So much about this game hits you on various levels of your psyche that it’s hard to put into words. Better … Continue reading
