The N3RDCast
Our weekly discussion on Comic Books (FULL of spoilers!), MMORPGs, gaming, comics, and geekdom in general.
 
Titles we spoil this week: CONAN, 52, JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA, WORLD WAR III, HERO BY NIGHT, INVINCIBLE, MIGHTY AVENGERS, MOON KNIGHT, SENSATIONAL SPIDER-MAN, ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN, X-FACTOR. Mac talks about his experiences with ComixPress, Rusty updates us with talk of the upcoming Philly Con, and then I turn off his mic. Well, really I turn mine off, but as soon as I notice, I turn his off in revenge.

We broadcast from the new N3 Studios this time, and you'll notice it obviously offered no benefit to my engineering skills. Yeah, big surprise, I'm an idiot.

If you're interested in checking out Mac's book, you can go to the-agents.us or on ComixPress' site directly. And speaking of sites, the very excellent creator of Hero By Night has his site right here.

Yes, we finished the Walk. It was pretty awesome, I feel free to tell you. I mean, the NeenerPalooza 07 melted faces with it's non-stop rocking (don't take my word for it, we have pics to prove it). But the MS Walk? It was chock full of wacky hijinks (and by wacky hijinks, I mean lots of dropped banana peels, curse that Mario).

Most of the costume awesomeness can be attributed to Mac and Dr. Sexy (although Gryph made a turtle shell that was pretty damn amazing out of paper mache).

But of course, out of all the costumes, King Boo was the obvious favorite.
The Ladies LOVE King Boo!

At least, for the ladies.

Only a few titles ruined this week because of Bachelor Party constraints: TRUE STORY SWEAR TO GOD, AFTER THE CAPE, MR. STUFFINS, SPIDER-MAN AND FANTASTIC FOUR, ALL-STAR SUPERMAN, BPRD, THE LONERS, BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER, FABLES, THUNDERBOLTS, NEW AVENGERS, 52, SHE-HULK, DARK TOWER, MARVEL ZOMBIES VS. ARMY OF DARKNESS. This should really be a two-parter. We start out with the usual comic book blathering, but then we have to break it down with our recap of the now-infamous Dr. Sexy Bachelor Party (also known as the STRIPPERGEDDON). I was going to record it "on the fly," as it were, but everyone was faaaar too drunk and noisy. That, and I was busy rocking out some Puzzle Quest.

If you're the sort that's not interested in drunken stripper (sorry, Go-Go Girl) debauchery, you'll probably want to stop listening at the 27:22 mark. On the other hand, if you're only here for the drunken debauchery, that's where you'll want to start.

Marrakesh really is that great of a restaurant, though. If you ever find yourself in Philly and want an awesome dining experience, you need to give this place a call.

Meeting Walt was a big kick. I felt like such a huge, dork, though. I can't imagine how many other dorks come into that place on an uber-nerd pilgrimage, but I bet most of them aren't there for a prequel to STRIPPERGEDDON! Here's hoping that he never listens to this and only thinks of us as minor annoyances and not really the great force for Chaos we actually are.

Not really lucky per se, because the only thing we're bringing you is our MOG ramblings, but hey, that's good, right? For this show, we focus on Serenity Online and what our hopes for it are as our subject, but of course become distracted by Daylight Savings Time, XP Pro vs. Window Vista, Warhammer 40k Online, monster pvp in LotRO, and Woody's crazy songs...

Yeah, we’re pretty much hosed for this week (and the next). We won’t be doing any N3RDCasts till things settle down in a couple weeks and I can get the studio set up. Yeah, I know, you’re all broken-hearted. But bear with us, I’ll try and post some pics of the new house and the wacky hijinks we’re getting up to as we settle and make the home our own.

So far all we’ve managed is to take the garbage and empty boxes left over from our move, fill the empty boxes with said garbage, and then label them with stuff like, “MASTER BEDROOM.�

Then we hide those boxes over at Dr. Sexy’s new house (in case you missed it, Dr. Sexy is also in the process of moving).

I can’t wait for him to start unpacking…
