DUSK reintroduces you to a world where butchery and bloodshed must be mastered if you’re to make it to dawn. Inspired by Quake, Blood, Heretic, Hexen, Half-Life and Redneck Rampage, and featuring a soundtrack by metal music mastermind Andrew Hulshult (Brutal DOOM, Rise of the Triad), DUSK unfolds in the eerie backwoods of the American Northeast where, gaining consciousness hanging on a meat hook, you must fight to survive.”

IDW Revolution review

IDW Revolution Review #3: Final Thoughts / Grade & 5 Comics (Spoilers)

Overall IDW REVOLUTION crossover event thoughts and final grade!

Plus review of 5 REVOLUTION related books with SPOILERS:

ROM #4
Transformers: Till All Are One: REVOLUTION #1
G.I. Joe: REVOLUTION #1
REVOLUTION #4
REVOLUTION #5

From http://www.idwpublishing.com/the-revolution-is-here/:
IDW Publishing has unveiled its most ambitious comic book publishing venture in its history revolving around its fan-favorite titles based on Hasbro properties.

The “Revolution” event marks the birth of a comic book crossover that will be comprised of not only the TRANSFORMERS and G.I. JOE properties, but also all-new properties MICRONAUTS, ROM, and ACTION MAN, as well as the launch of a long-awaited M.A.S.K.: Mobile Armored Strike Kommand series.

This is not a reboot—rather, the Revolution series takes many of the building blocks of what has come before from IDW and builds on them anew, bringing all these elements together in an epic event that results in an all-new status quo for all involved.

D&D Out of the Abyss Notes Title

D&D Out of the Abyss Notes #38

Shane discusses crafting and “downtime activities” while an adventure is in full swing.
