KUNG FURY is probably the greatest thing ever.



The official description says it all:

KUNG FURY is an over-the-top action comedy written and directed by David Sandberg. The movie features: arcade-robots, dinosaurs, nazis, vikings, norse gods, mutants and a super kung fu-cop called Kung Fury, all wrapped up in an 80s style action packed adventure. 
Admit it, you've run games just like this! KUNG FURY looks like the long lost buddy cop partner of Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon. They're a match made in mashup heaven!

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALL HUMAN BEINGS
I bet that you, like me, will find it impossible to believe that the filmmakers have run out of money, because no one in their right mind would let this not get made. But somehow it's true and they've launched a Kickstarter. This injustice cannot be allowed to continue. Let's make it happen!

Clandestinauts comic is coming to a close

Minneapolis-based comic artist and dungeoneering raconteur Tim Sievert announced earlier this week that his beloved Clandestinauts web comic would be wrapping up this week. If you've not read it, or it's predecessor The Intrepideers mini comic (which I believe was only in print) you're in for a treat. Update: I was able to track down Intrepideers online, thanks mwschmeer!

Clandestinauts is about as wild, wooly, weird, and bawdy as it gets when it comes to killing monsters and taking their stuff. It began as a tale of made-up adventures using the PCs from his circle of friends' D&D group.

I've crossed paths with Tim over the last several years and picked up the print copies when available. Tim's truly a great guy and one of the most original young illustrators working in indie comics today. I'm excited for him to be finishing an epic adventure that's run since 2010.

I'm also looking forward to his upcoming project (which I can't recall if he's made widely public yet, but you likely could figure it out if you visit his website). It's been another labor of love, years in the making and all I can say is bring it on Tim!

Stop by his site and get caught up for the big finale which is coming this Thursday!
