Microsoft brings out the big guns at the 40th annual Comic-Con International, with a line-up of panels and playables featuring Kinect, Gears of War 3, Fable III, Halo: Reach and more! More »
I recently read about a big change scheduled for a Superman comic. Superman won’t be in it. Lex Luthor will star. That raises a question you could ask for any medium: Can villains be the stars and still be villains? More »

None of the non-video game comics hitting shops in the US this week really jump out at me, so let’s stick with the three gaming comics of the week, including Felicia Day’s first issue of The Guild. More »
Felicia Day, the incredibly adorable star of the web sitcom “The Guild” and “Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog” has some important tips for men trying to find romance in the World of Warcraft.
Microsoft have tonight announced that they’ve signed an exclusivity deal with the makers of “The Guild”, the internet-based “comedy” show about a bunch of WoW guildmates. The show’s second season will appear on the 360′s new Independent Video channel first, and only after four weeks will the show then become available on The Guild’s own site (though Microsoft will still take a cut of the revenue). Interestingly, the Reuters report announcing the deal says the show will be released free of charge, and will be available simultaneously for Xbox Live users across the world (unlike the regular video marketplace, which is either heavily restricted or non-existent outside North America). Kinda strange they went for The Guild, though. The Mega64 kids might have been a more appropriate buy.
