Senior Writer at GeekVibesNation - I am a 60 something child of the 70’s who admits to being a Star Trek/Star Wars/Comic Book junkie who once dove headfirst over a cliff (Ok, it was a small hill) to try to rescue his Fantastic Four comic from a watery grave. I am married to a lovely woman who is as crazy as I am and the proud parent of a 21-year-old young man with autism. My wife and son are my real heroes.

Back in the early 80’s, when Arnold Schwarzenegger was just beginning to take over the Hollywood action scene, he made two movies based on Robert E. Howard’s iconic Barbarian Conan. Conan the Barbarian and Conan the Destroyer in 1982 and 1984 respectively. While neither film killed at the box office they did well enough and although Schwarzenegger moved onto other projects, he never forgot Conan. Fast forward to today and Schwarzenegger who is now 71 still has the itch to play the character one more time. He put it out there when promoting Marvel Comics Conan the Barbarian#1 which just so happens…

When you’re getting ready to release a blockbuster action film, if there is merchandising involved, you normally try to get a jump start on production so it will coincide with the film’s release. The issue you tend to run into is that preview samples of that merchandise can give away some of the details you were hoping to keep under wraps. This appears to be the case with the preview of the Avengers End Game War Machine action figure. While the general design of the armor appears to be similar to the suit that Rhodey wore in Avengers Infinity War…

This apparently didn’t faze David Benioff and D.B. Weiss who have taken a leave of absence from HBO to work on their Star Wars trilogy. Normally, HBO would be reluctant to let the talents of creators like Benioff and Weiss stray too far from the farm. However, telling someone they cannot work on a project like Star Wars is problematic if…

Their list of published games was somewhat lengthy and pretty popular. From The Walking Dead, to Minecraft Story Mode, Back to the Future, Game of  Thrones, Tales of Monkey Island, and Sam and Max save the world, TellTale was bringing back fan favorites and putting their own unique spin on them.
