Gamera, celebrating its 60th anniversary today, remains one of Japan’s most iconic kaiju.

Unlike Godzilla, Gamera belongs to a different studio, making an official crossover impossible despite multiple attempts.

Though the two giants never battled on film, they’ve shared space in licensed merchandise, books, and stage shows, keeping their legendary rivalry alive for fans.

Farewell to a childhood legend. Burt Meyer - a creative mind behind some of the most iconic games of our childhoods, including Rock'em Sock'em Robots, Light Bright, Mouse Trap and Toss Across - has passed away at the age of 99.
His toys weren't just games, they were portals to endless imagination and laughter in simpler times.
Saturday mornings on the floor, scattered pieces everywhere, and endless matches of "You knocked my block off!!!"

Wow! Name someone with a 55th birthday on Monday that desperately needs this shirt!

"This s****'s better than League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Do you really need cartoonist Tom Scioli's Kirby-obsessed retro version of Godzilla landing smack in the middle of the Great Gatsby? Yes. Yes you do." "the incredibly talented Scioli is always at his best at least a half-step removed from Kirby, which is probably why his IDW mash-ups are such a good time " "Now, you may be asking yourself... why? What the hell does Godzilla have to do with literary classics. And reading these issues, I was served a glorious reminder. Sometimes, the thrill of making great comics is about asking the more important question: Why the F*** not?!" - Comic Book Club

It’s a new era for John Pyka

Back of the Cereal Box is my new podcast project, building on my experience with Tales from the Geek and Comixstravaganza, as well as my performance career to create the kind of podcast I’ve always wanted to do. Best of all, the co-host is the audience!
