Mass Effect is coming to the comic universe with Mass Effect: Redemption

I consider myself to be a casual fan of comic books so naturally when my favorite video game of this generation has a comic coming out based upon its universe it is natural for me to be ecstatic about it and thus find the need to let you know about it.

Mass Effect: Redemption will fill in some of the gaps between the first and the second game and will specifically follow Commander Shepard and Dr. Liara T'Soni after they become separated from the Normandy and its crew.

The first issue hits shelves January 6, 2010. Mark your calendars I am sure it will not be as disappointing as Mass Effect Galaxy was.

In addition to the Mass Effect comic news The Guild is also coming to comics - also by Dark Horse - and it plans to follow the Guildies on some of their in game adventures.

I Discovered THE GUILD

Last night while browsing some Dr. Horrible interviews I came across one with Felicia Day. She was talking about her web series, The Guild and it was then that I finally decided I was going to sit down and watch it.

I am so very glad that I did because I watched the entire first season in one sitting and I am going back for round two (season 2) today. I am glad I caught this before the third season so that I can watch it with anticipation like the rest of the world internet.

After I started watching I sent Felicia a tweet saying how much I loved the show... and she responded. I geeked out, obviously.

So yeah, go watch The Guild, it is highly recommended.

In addition, the reason it took me so long to watch the show - because I had known about it since the season two partnership with Microsoft - is because I thought it was a cartoon and I did not think that I would enjoy it. I was wrong on many fronts (not a cartoon and I enjoy it) so once again, go watch it.

I know that you are really lazy so here is the first episode of the first season. If that is not enough then you do not deserve to be watching it. Really though, why are you still reading this.


Nice, right?
