I picked up the first issue of the Lobster Johnson comic, 4 of the 5 parts in the last Hellboy miniseries, and the entire run of the last Dark Horse Conan 5-parter. Then, while at the Boston Public Library book sale I picked up the novelization of Raiders of the Lost Ark, a bad 70s barbarian novel, plus 2 John Carter of Mars knock-offs called Blades of Mars and Barbarians of Mars.

Lots of good stuff to read.

Quote from: "hammershield"

Rewarded myself a little treat today: the 16 DVD series A World at War. Oh yes, I did!

Speaker voice in a news reel, commenting pictures of a motorcycle batallion on manouver:

The one time foot sloggers have turned kickstarter pusher. The Shankly Ponies have given way to a spanking new motorbike! The left-right-left-right blokes have got both feet of the ground at the same time, dontcher know! They are part of Britains mighty mobile mounties, all keen welcomers of Adolf when he drops in for a cup of tea and a cream bun. A batallion of wheels on parade; a swift moving striking force that will do the enemy a bit of no good!

I just love this shit! To think that I have ahead of me about 30 hours of old farts commenting their deeds in WWII with a received pronanciation that could cut glass makes me all giddy!

Oooo a new Hellboy Graphic novel. :love:

I just finished Baltimore today, an absolutley brilliant read it was. Most of the Horror games I run tend to be in the 30's and 40's. This book* has caused me to consider earlier games.

*well that and Screw-on Head.

Postie just came, carrying this:

Having enjoyed the Babylon 5 version courtesy of my mate Chronoglide, I thought I'd give the non-Sci-Fi spin-off a go.

Time to dig out those old teeny-tiny WWII ships I've got lying around here somewhere. The ones I painted years ago and never played with. River Plate and Denmark Strait for starters, I think.

Didn't knew it's a Bab5 spin-off. Is it just WW2 or can you do other eras to?

Yes, the base rules are the Mongoose "Babylon 5: A Call to Arms" space combat game, adapted for WWII. Sounds a bit crazy, but hopefully it will work out okay. The Babylon 5 version is certainly enjoyable.

As far as I can tell from the quick look I've had it is WWII only. But I have heard rumblings that there is going to be a stand-alone Great War game some time, too.

Poliorketes · « **Reply #114 on:** October 18, 2007, 05:01:02 PM »

Great War would be, errm, great. If i knew i would have some regular opponents. What really tempts me are the Seekrieg5 rules.

Rich picked these up for me at a yard sale, unaware that these John Carter of Mars knockoffs were actually written my Michael Moorcock. I can't wait to read them...
