For anyone who cares, I will recommend the french comic "The Black Moon Chronicles". Yes, it is a Tolkinian world, but the twist is that the protagonist becomes the right-hand man of the master of evil, who widens his influence trough his own religion and is apparently a god with a moonbase, and the hero looses his…
You have to say "family guy minus the bad jokes" to not scare them off. :)
very deep sigh...
Oh, I'm sure they knew how to take care of that.
This has nothing to do with science. He claimed to have a miracle cure for something, without evidence to back it up, and yet continued to apply it. This falls more under "snake oil salesman".
That's the problem. The LACK of imagination.
On second thought, I may judge this unfairly. I didn't read THAT series, but Raymond Feists Midkemia stuff (shudder).
Yayy! More derivative crap! Honestly, I'm sick of fantasy authors "paying homage" to Tolkien by literally copy-pasting most of his ideas. If you want to pay homage to an author you love, create a character or a city or a creature that is a reference to something in his/her book, and leave it at that. Honor him by…
You were raised catholic. Despite often getting a bad rep., The Catholic Church has supported science for the last 2 millennia and gradually accepted findings that proved passages of the bible wrong, going over to referring to those as "metaphors". The Evangelicals, while seemingly similar, take the diametrically…
Nnnnnnnghrrr...... can't breathe...
I know, right? I love trolls who stumble over their own feet.
This is the most awesome thing I have ever seen. It's beautiful.
Wow... what a PoS. I have never complained about the this "black-leatherrism" before as I didn't grow up reading marvel comics, but these covers with all of them together really hits home how ridiculous this concept is. There isn't even any sign of some sort of collective X-men Uniform. What I really like about the…
forgot to put the first sentence in parantheses
Einstein's signature on this letter led directly to the atomic attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki killing well over 100,000.
Mysterious men knocking at your door in three, two, one...
@Point 1. I never understood where this idea "God is a perfect being" comes from. The God of the old testament is clearly an emotionally driven creature with little self control that doesn't adhere to the rules it sets up for others. And IF we take into account the new testament, he basically revokes everything he did…
There's something genuily creepy about taking a children's monster and making it a real entity.
Yesss! The 50's are an awesome setting for a story that looks behind the facade of society. Plus retro-scifi!!
