We’ve found ourselves out of pocket a lot recently, with the shameful evidence of obsessive comic collecting published for all to see on our Instagram page. We can hardly be blamed for these sudden and welcome additions to our collections, however, as there’s just so much to choose from! For Comicphiles this week, I spent almost […]

The last Hideo Kojima trailer has been released for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, and it is a good one. Normally, a trailer being released this close to launch wouldn’t really be news. I mean, who else is going to be sold on a blockbuster like MGS V? That fanbase was already rabid […]
