NBC Making “The Office” Type Show With DC Superheroes

I hope this'll be cool.

So in the weirdest bit of nerd news in a long time, it seems NBC is going to be working on a DC comics show that is very much set up like the recent reality-fake- comedy show, The Office.

NBC has ordered a comedy pilot set in the DC Comics universe “full of superheroes, villains and people just like us.” The title is Powerless and it’s billed as “an office comedy about the exceedingly average employees at an insurance company and their quest to find their own power.” Ben Queen (Cars 2) is the writer. So it’s a bit like… DC’s Agents of Allstate?

May be odd, but could be hilarious if done with the right satirical tone. Will keep you posted as more news of this odd and kooky DC show leaks.

HUGE SPOILERS for Star Wars Episode 7, so just skip past this with your eyes closed if you haven't seen it yet.

I hadn't given any thought to this aspect of their relationship.

ken-chewy

A fantastic comic by Blizzard Entertainment artist Tyson Murphy illustrating Ben Solo and Chewy’s rather complicated friendship.

The hover text is golden.

Another popular VR experience is “Perfect Christmas Celebration”, where no racist or ignorant remarks are uttered by your elderly relatives.

Happy New Year, dear reader! I hope your celebrations were exactly as good as depicted above. This first 2016 comic arrives slightly belated, but the regular update schedule on Mondays and Fridays should resume from now on. And hey, thanks for reading!

Hasbro’s Strange Logic About Not Including Rey in Star Wars Toys and Games

by admin@purplepawn.com
Tom Wright

So many of these protests and they still don't manufacture the toys or stock the shelves. What a bunch of sexist morons.

wheresreyThe hashtag #WheresRey has been used on Twitter ever since the Target exclusive Star Wars: The Force Awakens 6 Action Figure Pack went on sale in early September with a generic TIE Fighter pilot and Stormtrooper in place of the protagonist of the movie.

This morning, Hasbro responded on Twitter to an eight-year-old girl’s inquiry about why Rey was not included in the new version of Star Wars: Monopoly. The Star Wars-themed Monopoly game, released last September, includes Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, Finn, and Kylo Ren — all male characters — as player pieces. Hasbro’s response, in part:

“…Rey was not included to avoid revealing a key plot line that she takes on Kylo Ren and joins the Rebel Alliance.”

age8Which, of course, is exactly what Finn did in the movie, too. An inquiry to Hasbro’s twitter account asking why Finn was included and Rey wasn’t, considering they both took on the main villain and joined the Resistance (and not the “Rebel Alliance”, which doesn’t exist in The Force Awakens), has gone unanswered.

Hasbro also writes that a Rey 12-inch action figure will be “hitting store shelves this month”, a little over four months after the first wave of exclusively-male 12-inch action figures were released. “We are thrilled with the popularity of this compelling character and will continue to look for ways to showcase Rey across all of our product lines.”

The only other female 12-inch action figure, Captain Phasma, was released as a Toys R Us exclusive in late November of last year.
