[Modern Art] These Twist-Tie Figures Are Incredible

When I was young and my parents took me to the supermarket, I’d always immediately head for the fruit and veggies section so I could steal all the twist-ties I could safely tuck into my pockets. I’d then take them back home so I could create little people and have them fight to the death. Seriously. I’d have the little twist-tie men duke it out. The winner would live to fight another day, and the loser would be skinned alive — which I’d accomplish by peeling the green plastic off the wire. Now, I do this with people.

Joking! Anyway, there’s this guy, let’s call him Jake. Jake makes incredible figures out of twist-ties. I don’t know if he pits them against each other, but what I do know is every one of them puts my warriors to shame. Check them out after the break.

Review: ‘Star Trek TNG/Doctor Who: Assimilation2′ Vol. 1 TPB

Star Trek: The Next Generation? 25-years-young with passionate fans. Doctor Who? 50-years-young and currently enjoying a renaissance. Why haven’t these two series met before and blown fandom’s minds sooner? Well, wait no longer – Star Trek TNG/Doctor Who: Assimilation2 Volume 1 is upon us. And it’s not a sequel as the title may suggest, it is Assimilation “squared”. Reading through the book is like spending a weekend watching a season of either show in double time. This is is the first four issues collected of the eight-issue mini-series and it is off to a grand start. READ MORE

First Look at Doctor Who’s Whispering Gallery Covers

A while back on the Dead Pixels Podcast, I had an interview with writer and artist Ben Templesmith about Dead Space. I randomly asked him a question about Doctor Who, since I am a huge fan. He then stated that he was working on an actual Doctor Who comic and it’s even more horror based. The comic that he was talking about is coming at the end of next month and it’s called ‘The Whispering Gallery.” I am very excited about this and Ben has recently showed the three covers to the issue. Hit the break for more information and the three covers…
