    Robert Downey Jr not only stole the show at the Academy, but he then proceeded to give us another great appearance on Jimmy’s show. The new trailer packs quite a punch, showing us at least 2 new Iron Man armors, War Machine in more detail, a shady deal being made between Justin Hammer and Whiplash, an army of Iron Men, and the (wait for it) Silver Centurion armor in suit case form!

    Hit the jump to check out the new Trailer… Read more »

    We often find ourselves staring at the magazine rack trying to decide where our money is best spent. Do we want to read about music? How about culture or style? Or maybe movies or that Indie film we missed last year? You could go to one of the media elite or you could go with Risen Magazine. Every month you’ll read everything from a young artist who creates surreal painting’s then turn the page and read about a actor you’ll have seen in many films but knew nothing about. Filled with engaging articles and wonderful images, in every issue you find yourself wrapped up in information on everything you never knew you were looking for. This is without any doubt one of the coolest magazines around, and coming from us, that’s saying something. NC

    When I first talked with Jerrell he was already working on moving, writing, drawing, and a whole slew of other tasks that make the rest of us scream, but he was ready to talk and go into detail with me on just what theREDr was and what he was trying to do with it. This is one of those books that draws you into it’s universe, the kind of book that has you loaning it out to your friends and excited to read more. Read more »
