Batman: Arkham Knight

Two days ago, when Rocksteady suddenly revealed their next and last installment in the Arkham video game series with a four minute story trailer, I didn't have time to react properly. Which is to say, I freaked out, watched it several times in a row, shared it on social media with the caption "You're welcome" (as if I had something to do with it), and got back to grading papers.



Now that grading is momentarily caught up, I feel the need to explore my reaction more thoroughly. I think it might be therapeutic. Though it releases this October, the game is next-gen only, so it will be much longer before I actually get to play it. Rather than bottle up and carry all this enthusiasm around for the next months/years/however-long-before-my-wife-lets-me-buy-a-PS4, I'll dump it off here. (That's what blogs are for, right? I'm still not sure.)

A Zombie Comedy

‎Panel 123:Centered on Anton standing among zombies who are both sitting and standing, but all listening intently, many laughing. Anton holds in his hand a copy of A Modest Proposal and appears to be doing a dramatic reading.

That's my favorite part of "Greener," which came out today. But don't worry - not all the jokes are that pretentious! If you like zombies, dark comedy, or graphic novels sans graphics, head over to Limn!

Also, look for my essay "Mormon Faith, Fantastic Transformation, and Free Will" in Jan/Feb from Irreantum, the literary journal of the Association for Mormon Letters.
