Free weekly productDork Tower #1: Heart of Dorkness
by Dork Storm Press

Dork Tower is for anybody who’s ever playedDungeons and Dragons, who’s ever gone to a Star Trek convention, anyone who suspects that anime is growing, or anyone who KNOWS one of these people. But it’s really for people who know what saving rolls you need to make against a level III Demon, which Classic Trek episodes involved the Prime Directive (and who were the directors), and the names of six minor characters and a dog in the Bubblegum Crisis.

It’s the story of Matt, Igor, Ken, Carson the Muskrat (yes, he’s a muskrat – and he also happens to be the star of Wild Life) and Gilly, the Perky Goth. They’re trapped in a world they never made . . . but are nevertheless striving to create a realistic yet playable simulation thereof!

Featured TitleHero 9 to 5 #5: Quietus
by AAM Markosia

“The Lone Knight Returns”

Welcome back to a world where the rich can afford the best in super hero protection, but the poor have to get by with the heroic equivalent of third party, fire and theft.

The “Lone Knight” returns from the pages of Hero: 9 to 5, but how will The Loner and the finest men and women that publicly funded super hero protection can supply cope when a mysterious figure leaves a trail of unconnected corpses in his wake? How will a young hero deal with the loss of his mentor?

And, more importantly, how will Thunder Woman get her groceries when she runs into Lash Lady at the store? In a world where being a super hero is just another job, what happens when there’s nobody left alive to pay the bill? Quietus – some men just want to watch the world die.

BatmanThe Batman Filmography, 2nd Edition

This is a complete reference work to the history of Batman big screen works, from the 1940s serials through the campy 1960s TV show and film, and up through the series of Warner Bros. summer blockbusters that climaxed with Christopher Nolan’s 2012 film The Dark Knight Rises.

Chapters on each Batman feature include extensive film and production credits, a production history, and a critical analysis of the movie relative to the storied history of the Batman character.

The book also examines the Batman-related works and events that took place in the years between the character’s film exploits.

Riddle me this, Batman!Riddle Me This, Batman! Essays on the Universe of the Dark Knight

From his first comic-book appearance in 1939 through his many incarnations on the big screen, the archetypal superhero known as The Batman has never been far from the American consciousness. The character shaped the way we read comics and graphic novels, view motion pictures, and analyze the motifs of the Hero, the Anti-Hero and the Villain. He has also captured the scholarly imagination, telling us much about our society and ourselves.

These essays examine how Batman is both the canvas on which our cultural identity is painted, and the Eternal Other that informs our own journeys of understanding.

Questions relating to a wide range of disciplines–philosophy, literature, psychology, pop culture, and more–are thoroughly and entertainingly explored, in a manner that will appeal both to scholars and to fans of the Caped Crusader alike.

Pick of the WeekArtesia Afield #1
by Archaia Entertainment LLC

Artesia leads an army out of the Highlands to aid the Middle Kingdoms against the resurgent Empire of Thessid-Gola; the Empire’s legions have swept across the land bringing death by sword and fire, forcing Awain, the High King of Therapoli, to split his army and attempt to relieve besieged cities.

As Artesia and her captains seeks to join the northern army led by the High King’s marshal, the Grand Duke Owen Lis Red, they are confronted with the myriad dangers and distractions of life on campaign.

They encounter the Thessid enemy for the first time, meet and hire mercenaries from distant lands, and learn of the Empire’s terrifying allies, the Isliklids, who heretically claim descent from Islik the Divine King.

And through it all, Artesia is plagued by dreams and haunted by ghosts, as she ponders the choices she has made, and those she hasn’t…
