Braid has hit the virtual shelves recently and I have to say that I am quite impressed with the little shindig. It’s like if the Prince of Persia and Super Mario had a son, and that kid liked to do puzzles on the train ride commuting to class at Harvard. It is a cerebral and [...]

Disclaimer: Be warned, there is heavy nerd content to be read ahead. I try to not lose you in the lingo being thrown around. If you’ve played roleplaying videogames, then you should be able to understand what I’m talking about. If you’re familiar with D&D, you should be able to follow all of it very easily. If you don’t fall into those two categories, I hope I don’t lose you in the next few paragraphs.

Mace Lives
Mace Windu
The beret is considered canon.
Now normally we here at Rocket Llama try to shy away from complete nerdy ramblings, but seeing as it’s Star Wars week and us Star Wars nerds love to ramble about such things, I couldn’t resist this one.
In my previous article I discussed prequel badass Mace Windu. In it, [...]

Little by little, the website is changing. A month ago, our homepage was just the cover image for Rocket Llama #112 and a small paragraph explaining who and what Rocket Llama is. Now we’re more than halfway through with #136, we have tons of articles, and some other strange goodies.

As I reflect back on everything I saw and smelled at Comic-Con, I am forced to draw the undeniable conclusion that many would find shocking.
Comic-Con isn’t just about comics. A pretty good chunk of it is about other crap.
