Star Wars: Agent of the Empire: Iron Eclipse – Review

Posted by Jamie Concepcion On May - 6 - 2012

Johan Cross is an Agent of the Empire. Sort of a more humanized version of The Operative from Serenity with a dash of James Bond thrown in. He’s working for the bad guys, but he believes what he’s doing is right. He’s also going to bed any ladies he can get info from along the way.

It’s definitely a valid point.

Ink Empire – Nerd Shirt of the Day

Posted by Jamie Concepcion On May - 5 - 2012

Very clever shirt. In case you were wondering, the characters on the side say “storm” in Katakana and kanji (both Japanese).

It’s been out almost six months and SWTOR has seemed to have exploded and deflated, but I still love it. Initially I had a blast leveling up to 50 with my Bounty Hunter, but have since found myself playing it less and less. That particular character that is, not the game. Up until the recent patch 1.2 the end game content was fun, but not exactly challenging by any means. The difference between normal, hard and nightmare modes, consists of merely bosses with more life that hit harder, not the expected mechanic changes. I found myself disheartened by falling into the same MMO patterns of repeating daily quests and blowing through the operations and flashpoints.

Wookie Kong – Nerd Shirt of the Day

I don’t know about this. I don’t think Han would put in THAT much effort in rescuing Princess Leia. Plus, Chewbacca is kind of his best friend.

Happy Star Wars Day!

Posted by Jamie Concepcion On May - 4 - 2012

It’s Star Wars Day! May the 4th be with you! Kind of sounds like a Star Wars fan with a lisp doesn’t it?

Some other franchise is trying to steal Star Wars special day today. We’ll let that slide though.

Baby Fett – Nerd Shirt of the Day

I feel like this is a companion to that triker scout shirt I posted a few weeks ago.

Star Wars: Blood Ties – Boba Fett is Dead #1 – Comic Review

Posted by Jamie Concepcion On May - 2 - 2012

Boba Fett is dead. A team of clone troopers and mercenaries have taken out the world’s best bounty hunter. Upon finding out about Boba Fett’s death, Connor Freeman (who is according to the synopsis on Darkhorse.com the son of a clone trooper) mourns his death after we’re thrown a hint about his past relationship with Fett, and goes on his own adventure. We’re led to believe that he is killing off the people responsible for Fett’s death, which may or may not be the case. I’m not going to spoil the ending, but it’s another “what’s REALLY happening here?” moment.

I really liked this issue. I liked the art (which you can check out an example of below). I liked the story. It’s a story of revenge(possibly) and how a team of assassins is going to pay for messing with the wrong guy. I hope Boba Fett is Dead keeps up the intensity on the vengeance while the story unfolds and we learn the secrets behind it.

I have no complaints, other than I can’t read the entire story now. This is just the first part of four, but that’s how comics go. You have to wait until next month for your fix.

If you’re into Star Wars, or just stories that are revenge focused, you need to check out Star Wars: Blood Ties – Boba Fett is Dead #1.
