Beneath the Cowl: Seeing the Brilliance in Batman V. Superman [FILM EDITORIAL]

Without doubt, Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice is the most Gothic comic book film since Alex Proyas’ The Crow with Brandon Lee. However, Batman V. Superman (B vs. S) is something very different than The Crow. The Crow was intended to be just one film, and future films almost destroyed the incredible work they’d done in that original, whereas B vs. S is designed to be the second film in the DC Universe and open the way to a ton of new films.

Downstream [ALBUM REVIEW]

In 2009 two members of the black/death metal band Sickrites conjured into being the unfathomable entity that is Goatpsalm. The line-up of Goatpsalm has been as free flowing as their music, spirits arrive and spirits depart and after the release of their second album, Erset La Tari, which delved into the black beliefs, lore and legend of Babylon and Mesopotamia, they were joined by multi-instrumentalist Vaarwel, also of Frozen Ocean. The result of this injection of creativity and vision is Downstream.

Bloodbound: Pathfinder Tales [BOOK REVIEW]

Larsa is OFFICIALLY a Royal Accuser-the Pathfinder equivalent of the U.S. Marshalls meets the KGB-in the Ustalavian capital of Caliphas. Somewhat like the Marvel Knights’ character, Blade, she’s also half-Vampire/half-human (a half-breed known as a dhampir), which causes her to be held in contempt by both humans and vampires. Despite her pariah status, Siervage-the designated leader of the Vampires in Ustalav-has found a use for Larsa’s unique skills: vampire hunter. More like vampire dog catcher, she’s required to hunt down and destroying any rogue spawn who endanger the pact he’s made bet

With Nyctophilian, the Swedish Stockholm quartet debarks from escalating gloomy evil and fear. Production is trimmed of any excess to produce a tight, distorted and crepuscularly devastated postcard of human misery.

Martial Arts: The Card Game [GAME REVIEW]

Many of our readers have trained in (or at least, have a love for) the martial arts. While Martial Arts is often seen as referring only to oriental martial arts (ie kungfu, karate, tae kwan do, muay thai), it is actually a much broader concept that can refer to any form of combat arts, from boxing to krav maga. When a stylist combines various elements of contrasting combat arts, this is popularly referred to as mixed martial arts (MMA) and, with the help of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, has become the second most watched sport in the USA, behind football.
