TUNE TUES! BATMETAL RETURNS TO KILL LA KILL THE POPE!


First up we have an sequel to Batmetal, a now series of Batman-themed animated videos using Metalocalypse's fictional-real band Dethklok's songs, and this time it uses their hit recorded on exclusively in water form, MURMAIDER (WARNING: EXTREMELY VIOLENT). While the original video is a visually engrossing bloodbath, this version has enough funny references to comics, video games, and cartoons to please any man-child. Enjoy.


The current Pope is relatively cool compared to his predecessors, especially compared to the last Il Papa, but maybe that ain't saying much? Still, this Pope has done a lot to ingratiate himself as a more progressive voice for the Church and might inspire some soul-searching for many in the Catholic church that could create a more peaceful and inclusive world. And that's nice.


And let's endcap this article that I created a day late (since usually I do Music Mondays but was suffering from an inability to sleep yesterday), with another cover by Sapphire from my favorite anime, Kill La Kill. Enjoy.

MUSIC MON! SCIENTIFICALLY ACCURATE BETRAYAL OF SONIC AND BATMAN!


Let's start with a pretty damn metal video from AhryBES animation starring the dumbest version of Batman since Frank Miller's "Crazy Steve" from All-Star Batman. Combining Dethklok's Face Fisted with the Dark Knight is a brilliant bit of pop culture crossover madness and the animation is simultaneously revolting, arousing, and hilarious.

I can't wait to see their next project and hope it has the same ambitious scale shown in this comic-tastic piece of fanart.


I dunno if I've shared this before...but who cares!

Spoony's Ultima Retrospective is one of my favorite series online-- they have a lot of really interesting observations on game design and storytelling (so much so that Lord British is Spoony's fan), they have some fantastic skits that go above the writing and production quality called for, and the build-up to the conclusion is so good!

This is dedicated to my friend Clay who, coincidentally, just got himself a pet hedgehog for his 20th birthday.

It is named Anguirus and it is, admittably, very cute.

Happy birthday, dork.
