Continuing our celebration of the 40th anniversary of the Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars limited series (1984) with Mike Zeck's spectacular cover art from Secret Wars #1. In the pencils and inks, note the inclusion of Kitty Pryde, who ultimately didn't appear in the series, as well as Mister Fantastic and Thor, who were removed to fit the logo on the final printed cover.
Excited to announce my next title "Centauri Dark" is now available to wishlist on Steam and Itch.io!

list of games everyone should play before they die imo
- bioshock
not only is this one of the most influential games. maybe ever, it’s also just one of the greatest examples of how to make a linear experience /feel/ self-directed, and the fact that that is THE PLOT OF THE GAME makes it all the better
- titanfall 2
i think this one goes without saying. is it as well written as some others on this list? probably not. but the story still goes pretty hard, and basically any failings are made up for by it having THE smoothest and movement and combat systems even half a decade later)
- subnautica
if you’ve played it, you get it. simply put, it is the best survival (survival horror?) game and may never be surpassed. it understands how to guide a player through an open world, how to tell multiple stories at once, and how to keep experiences fresh better than most games even outside it’s genre
- breath of the wild
the greatest open world experience ever. period. that’s it.
- mario odyssey
nintendo at its absolute peak. narrowly beat out galaxy just because of that little bit of polish it has from being newer, but i mean play both. odyssey is a beautiful experience that is simultaneously approachable yet non-coddling (like many mario titles) and just constantly finds ways to one up itself and just be straight up /fun/.
- ultrakill
where botw is the best of the best for open worlds and odyssey is top of the line 3D platforming, ultrakill may just be the best boomer shooter on the market. it’s combat is simple, yet synergizes with itself in such a way that the more you play, it feels like you unlock new skills without any kind of leveling to speak of. many people have said it’s a game that answers every question the player could have with “yes,” and yeah i agree.
EDIT HOW COULD I FORGET DISCO??? MY SWEET BABY???
- Disco elysium
what can i say that hasn’t been said already? unparalleled storytelling. the dark souls of communism. a game that gets you to reckon with yourself and—just maybe—touch grass. maybe not.
I gotta get up for work rn but the original tweet………….. they’ve got to be joking at this point because while they are correct in some instances, they must’ve chosen some of the worst examples imaginable… Also, Why is Shigeki in the same category as Joshu and Alessi knowing how they are… he was just a greedy, fat kid. The others were literal creeps.
Ok so here’s my list of videogames I’m going through rn:
Half-Life series
Batman Arkham
And now Zelda
All of which I know jack shit about the stories or spoilers. I’ve started Batman Arkham Asylum and I’m in the middle of Half Life 2 Episode 1. So far I’m having a blast
