A painted alter of the Magic: the Gathering card, "Doctor Octopus, Master Planner," featuring an acrylic painting of Alfred Molina as portraying Otto Octavius in the film Spider-Man 2, directed by Sam Raimi. A speech bubble painted into the bottom of the card has Otto saying "I love my WIFE, Peter..."

Rise of the Ronin deserves applause for being possibly the only videogame in which you can form a polycule with Commodore Matthew Perry and Ernest Satow

Rama Duwaji becoming First Lady of New York City probably makes her the coolest person to come out of VCU's Comm Arts program by default
(and there are a lot of cool people from that program that I am glad to have known, befriended and loved)

tbh the disillusionment m:tg fans feel towards UB and the ever increasing schedule of set releases is how I feel about Gunpla. I don't care how bleeding edge the newest Real Grade is. just show me some goofy lil guy from a 1982 MSV file instead of a 60 kit deep hoarder backlog

average m:tg fan: "i hate the tmnt pizza lands"
me: "the forest broccoli pizza needs more goat cheese to be like the broccoli-spinach-goat cheese ranch pizza they served at Alamo Drafthouse as a limited time special for TMNT Mutant Mayhem that was so good they brought it back for other movies"
