Back in 1996, Satoshi Tajiri transformed his childhood hobby of insect collecting into a Game Boy game that launched a global phenonemon. That game was Pokemon.

Now, aspiring Pokemon masters now have something else to look forward this October as the franchise's official Japanese website announced Pokemon: The Origin, a TV anime special based on the original Red and Green games.

The 50 Greatest Graphic Novels of All Time
Aug,19,2013
by:+Staff
Marjane Satrapi’s Persepolis secured the top spot on a list of "The 50 Greatest Graphic Novels of All Time" compiled by The Herald of Scotland, which surveyed an undisclosed number of “cartoonists, novelists, critics, journalists, comic historians, comedians, and the odd musician” in order to come up with the rankings. There are more than a few surprises on the list (From Hell is ranked ahead of Watchmen), and there is a definite European bias (manga is represented only by one volume from Otomo, one from Tezuka, and Barefoot Gen), but it is instructive nonetheless.

Child's Play: Our Favorite Kids in Anime
Aug,19,2013
by:+Staff
Edward (Cowboy Bebop): Overwhelmingly, you guys picked Ed as your favorite kid in otakudom. You'd think it'd be difficult or even dangerous for a 13 year old girl to hang around a spaceship full of bounty hunters, but Ed, tech genius that she is, not only fits in with the crew of the Bebop, but she's an invaluable member of the team to boot. Plus, someone has to pick up after Ein, especially when he's on mushrooms.

by:+Mercedes Milligan
Rovio Entertainment Ltd. and Lucasfilm Ltd. have announced they are continuing their collaboration by offering a sequel to their hot property smash-up game Angry Birds Star Wars. The follow-up, Angry Birds Star Wars II (we sort of wish it had a catchy title like The Pigs Strike Back) will launch September 19 and be available in app stores worldwide.
The new game app will follow the story of the three Star Wars prequels and will introduce never-before-seen Angry Birds Star Wars characters. For the first time, players can choose to “Join the Pork Side” and play as one of those villainous piggies.

Predictable Reactions Dept.: Alan Moore Rips 'LOEG' TV Series
July,15,2013
By:+Staff
When asked about his reaction to Fox’s decision to order a TV series pilot based on League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (see "Fox Orders 'LEOG' Pilot") Alan Moore eschewed the tirade in favor of understated humor, telling Entertainment Weekly, "When DC did the Watchmen prequel comics I said all sorts of deeply offensive things about the modern entertainment industry clearly having no ideas of its own and having to go through dustbins and spittoons in the middle of the night to recycle things."

Tales from the Toon Trenches Anyone Remember ‘Budgie?’
July,11,2013
by:+Michael Mallory
Budgie, which was produced by Fred Wolf Films Dublin for the licensing outfit Sleepy Kids, first hit the airwaves in 1994, and an awful lot has happened in twenty years. Budgie aired in America over Fox Kids, which doesn’t exist anymore. Neither does Sleepy Kids. Neither, for that matter, does the title “H.R.H. The Duchess of York.” The creator of Budgie has been “demoted” to Sarah, Duchess of York (still, it could be worse), nee Sarah Ferguson, then familiarly known as “Fergie.”
