Nadie, El Cazador
Nadie let the man run down the ravine at full speed. A wake of dust that his feet kicked up from the dry riverbed trailed in the moonlight as he ran. He stumbled and kept going on all fours, using his hands, like an animal for who standing up straight asked too much of his [...]
Doujin Poll Results
Thanks for voting. I’m going to go ahead and put a figure photo collection together. I wanted to see if fifteen people would buy one. From the poll I think there’s a decent chance that would happen. I know a 20-page book is over-priced at $11, but for low print volumes it’s almost that much [...]
Begins Simoun
I didn’t know much about Simoun before putting it in my queue other than it was mystical sci-fantasy, had some yuri affection, and pretty character designs.

Saber stood guard, but he planned not to use her. Kiritsugu had a rifle and a night vision scope. Twelve grams [...]
Finished 009-1
At first, 009-1 looked like it would be an action oriented spy story, lots of gadgets, infiltration missions, and spy duels. At least, that was the impression I got from the first DVD. The series changes tempo for the rest, slowing down into something more blue that’s worth it if you can take slower riffs [...]
