JOHN BYRNE

Another pop cultural fantastic bestiary Sunday. Anybody remember the movie Avatar? Not the kung-fu fantasy one, the tribal sci-fi one. The James Cameron’s Avatar as it was marketed. I still remember it being the movie that REALLY set the standard for what CGI technology can do cinematically, making this ...

FEATURED COMIC --> Book in Hat
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, July 13, 2022
A blue hardcover book wearing a red hat with an unquenchable desire for adventure pulls an older, dusty, grumpy and green hardcover book off the shelf as a companion. Imagine a mysterious, magical mustache gifted by a generous French gentleman, saved from a fire. Descend farther down into an abyss ...

So! Back to mythology. And we are going back to my place again, good ol’ Scandinavia. In the summertime no less when the color green is everywhere, the fields are high and trolls come sneaking down from their magically hidden caves and mountain kingdoms. To me the Scandinavian depiction of ...
