Pick Your Pickle and Prepare for Puns: Pickleball's Board Game Just Launched. A fast, fun, irreverent board game that celebrates the joy of Pickleball. Fans of silly puns, pickles, and fast-paced games alike have a new game to add to their list of must-haves: HotShot Pickleball. This delightful card-drawing board game is quick to learn and gives a surprising amount of opportunity to lightly strategize as you race to the ball and attempt to hit it back over the net to your opponent. The debut release from indie studio Midnight Trading Co., HotShot Pickleball was made while game designer Robert Gelb was recovering from an Achilles injury sustained, ironically, by playing Pickleball. For those who haven’t heard of pickleball, it's the fastest-growing sport in the world, with over 32 million players last year. HotShot Pickleball is a lively, family-friendly game that combines the fun of the sport with a cast of quirky, pickle-themed characters like Stew Cumber, Kim Chee, and Corni...

DC Announces Superman/Wonder Woman


The ongoing series is simply titled SUPERMAN/WONDER WOMAN and will dive into their growing relationship. By Swamp Thing writer Charles Soule and Action Comics illustrator Tony Daniel, the first issue will be released this October.

All I have to say about this is DC Stop NOW!! Why do they have to make everything about their Trinity and Justice League. It's like if something doesn't have sales comparable to Superman, Batman or JL it needs to be replaced with another carbon copy. I mean the September's villains' issues are a sure way to accomplish this by getting rid of any book that isn't a money maker and creating multiple issues for their Big Dogs Batman, Aquaman, Superman, and the rest of the JL. And if you are one of the unfortunate that have a subscription to one of those books and pay per issue your going to be getting more books than normal.

I will use Vibe as an example. I read they had to put the Justice League of America on Vibe because it was a trademark issue, but personally I believe they did it for sales more than anything, they could have called it Unlimited Vibe, Vibe Justice, Fancy Vibe, Dancing Vibe, or anything else. I think it goes with the theory that if you don't know who the character is you might think to yourself, hey it says JLA so it must be an essential to the JLA book. I didn't like the announcement of the new Superman and Superman/Batman books while good titles were being canned, this is another of those announcements.
