A reminder that tonight we have our first Comic Book Review tonight. This month's book is DMZ Vol 1.
@imJohnBruce I was the same this morning. The animation style reminded me of Ulysses 31 but nowhere near as good.
@choobanicus Little Fears is not available through my distributors. Leisure Games will have it as they deal directly with publishers. Sorry
@choobanicus You'll need to give me the product name as the url was relying on a cookie...
Fancy trying to create a comic from scratch? Come along to our Comic Jam sessions on the last Saturday of each month. http://bit.ly/KoAJam1

Re: Noobies!

Erm.  I'm Dave and I'm the fool who has opened this shop.  You can normally find me behind the counter or in the office working on what's next in the shop and getting annoyed at suppliers who mess up orders...

Games - I'm a roleplayer first and foremost.  Dungeons & Dragons has played some part in my life for the past erm 26 years...  I've also played a lot of other games but far too many to mention.  Don't do CCGs or Wargames but do enjoy the odd board or card game.  Problem being is that I rarely have time to game anymore.  Awwwww.

Comics - As with the D&D comics have been in my life for a long time.  Currently my reading list includes Atomic Robo from Red 5 Comics; the War Of Kings story line in Marvel (Cosmic) written by Abnett/Lanning and I dip my toe into the odd trade from time to time with Greg Rucka's Queen & Country being amongst my favourite discoveries recently.  As with gaming though I rarely get time to actually sit down and read comics.

So yeah.  Dave, owner, ex-IT type, husband, father plus of course gamer and comic fan.

Let me know if you have any comments or questions about the shop.

Re: Noobies!

I'm Dougie. I compulsively hoard gaming stuff ;-)

Occasionally i have been known to play the odd game too though. I'm primarily a wargamer, but i do my fair share of CCG/roleplaying/videogaming etc when i get a chance. My mainstays are (deep breath) 40k, WHFB, Blood Bowl, Aeronautica Imperialis, Battlefleet Gothic, Mordheim, Necromunda, Epic, UFS, Dark Heresy and B5:ACTA. This list grows with each passing month/ebay purchase - think i've some sort of gaming attention deficit disorder... :-)

Recently i've rediscovered my love of reading comics (mainly due to Dave's influence - cheers dude, just what i needed, ANOTHER distraction!). Mainly read graphic novels/trades at the minute and my current faves are Frank Millers All Star Batman & Robin and Garth Ennis' Punisher stuff. Oh and any Penny Arcade stuff, those pair are two funny mofo's :-) If you get a chance, check 'em out.

Anyhoo, methinks i'm rambling so i'll shut up and let someone else have their say!

Re: Noobies!

I'm Shaun (or atleast one of them!!)

I've been gaming for about 15yrs and I'll play anything I can get my hands on!! At the moment i'm playing WoW CCG, Magic, UFS, WH40K, Fantasy, Warmachine, Bloodbowl, Necromunda, BFG and D&D. I hadn't played much RPG's in almost 8yrs until I met Dave and he rekindled that old D.M spark so Now I'm running D&D and I've got a few other things in mind but i'm not going into that here!

I play a fair amount of computer games. At the moment it's mostly Guitar Hero, Magic and Lego Batman.


I'm a big comic fan and have been pretty much all my life. I like Dan Abbnet, Garth Ennis, Neil Gaiman and many, many more. I'm a massive Stephen King fan so I'm currently reading the two series Marvel are producing based on his novel The Stand and The Dark Tower Series.

Thats enuff from me I feel...

Re: Noobies!

I'm Tom

Mostly into wargames of all kinds but playing a lot of 40k just now - not into card games, except Poker but I reckon my son is about to change all that!
Only RPG's I do tend to be PC based as I really don't work set hours so can't really say I'll be somewhere at a certain time although I used to do a lot in my younger days.
Lots of different musical tastes from Mozart via Led Zep to Pink, and I'll listen to anything at least once.
As for painting - not really my strong point - absolutley hate doing it and I'm rubbish at it - I do take a pretty good picture though but seeing as thats what I do for a living I probably should.

Okay who's next?

Re: Noobies!

Hello, I'm Aund and I'm an alcoholic...... Er apologies wrong forum.

I got into 40k about a year and a half ago mainly for painting the lovely wee men with big guns. I now play quite regularly as well though and you can find me at the Kirkcaldy club every 2 weeks if you ever fancy a game.

I've also recently started participating in Shauns D&D campaign he runs at the shop which I must admit I'm quite enjoying.

I am a recovering Halo 3 addict but unfortunately haven't managed a game in about 6 months due to a hectic family life.

As for comics I haven't read much although I did love Preacher. I'm a big fan of 40k fiction.

Re: Noobies!

Hello,

I'm Andy and I play games.

I like things....

But not CCGs.

I'm in the shop alot when not working - but not as much as Jordan or Blair!

Those who know me will be aware that I like to play pretty much anything RPG or tabletop and what I haven't played I'll try at least once. Then buy it and add it to the mountain of painting I've got to do.

Mainly into RPG and I run a WFRP campaign on a Friday night.

In the 40k (Orks) and Fantasy (Ogre Kingdoms) Ladders, and will be signing up for the Uncharted Seas ladder and Blood Bowl Tornaments when they start up. Some Come on then I'll take you all on!!! Outside Now!! On second thoughts - its warmer and drier inside so lets not go outside and it'll be better if I play you one at a time at a pre-arranged time using a universally accepted set of rules that will not lead to actual physical violence.

Having a headache trying to decide what WARMACHINE faction to go for, but the new faction coming out next month looks good - so hands off Caz you can't have ALL the good looking ones to yourself.

Damn you Dave for having so many nice things in your store. Or is that 'Needfull things'? Is you name really Leyland and are you in fact the devil? Trying to make me spend all my hard earned cash in there..... why I aughta.....

Speaking of which - I'll be pressed up against the window on the release day for Space Hulk! Not a Pretty sight I'm sure you'll agree!

If I don't see you through week, I'll see you through window!

Andy.

Re: Noobies!

Hello I'm Craig
Good friends with the above personna
I like warhammer fantasy in which i have brets. Just forked out a lot for them so will hopefully be through for some games. Don't mind a game of 40k either with my Eldar.
Haven't played much RPG but willing to give them a try. Apparantly going to have a game of Cthulhu with ben later this month. Will hopefully be in the shop on Bank Holiday Monday.

Re: Noobies!

Hello I'm Ross,

I have been gaming in various forms for the last er 25 years. Starting with D & D Basic, MERP and RM. Recently started playing GURPS just for the sheer hell of it. Don't ask why.

In terms of wargames I am interested in Ancients, WW2 and limited sci-fi.

Until recently I have been playing WAB in 28mm, but have become slightly jaded with the Heroes/characters in GW games and am in the process of trailing Impetus and Basic Impetus.

With WW2 I have played Rapid Fire (20mm) and will play Disposable Heroes: 7 Coffins for 7 Brothers whenever. I also play General Quarters a WW2 .

Sci-fi - 40K because its there, and occassionally Ground Zero Games: Full Thrust - star ship combat.

The only fantasy game I really play is Mordheim, unless Tom (Rusty Nail) brings out the pointy shooty death troop in which case there is no point. Basic Impetus offers fantasy as well which may bring hte green hordes out of the loft from the lead pile.

Painting as long as I have been gaming, but still a long way to go. Faces being a problem just now.

Music: prog rock, punk, electronica, folk, rock/metal, new age and OST. Anything which basically appeals.

For my sins I am also the fool who organises the Legion Games Club in Dunfermline - flyers available in KoA, just ask Dave.

Cheers

Ross

Cheers

Ross

Re: Noobies!

Hi, I'm Kieran.  Errr ... hi.

I am 15 and have been gaming for about ... 1 year and a half when I got into Magic the Gathering.  Before this I was not really into that sort of gaming although I was known to trade Pokémon Cards and played YuGiOh when the crazes hit.  Y'know you did it too :P.

I like music ... I tell a lie, I LOVE music.  Okay I lie again, how can I put this *deep breath* I LURRRRRRRRRVE THE MUSIC!!! *breathes*.  I have been playing piano since I was five and I now also play violin and sing as well, and no, not just in the shower.  I like anything that has a tune to it, anything that I can hum or whitsle, so nothing overly Metallic or Techno, I just like things with a tune.  My main victim genre that I'm heavily into at the moment would have to be folk.  I can't get enough of the stuff.  I'm also heavily into Computer Gaming.  My favs are some old PS1 games (before the manufacturers sold their souls to corporate money-grabbers)and anything made by VALVe, especially Portal, although it's fast becoming old in some people's eyes.  I do not like Warcraft the Computer Game *SHOT*.  Also, I like painting and sketching.  I don't however, have anywhere near the patience of money to do it properly, god I need a job.  My other passion in life is reading.  I love reading any novel as long as it's well written (i.e. not anything new by Stephen King or anything from "That particular Young-Adult-Vampire-Romance-Novel").  I would consider myself a bit of a Fantasy genre, I love anything to do with it including books and games.  This is one of the main reasins I got into D&D fairly recently.

So yeah, I'm Kieran, I'm 15 and I'm .. eclectic.

And yes, for those who are wondering, I like words ^_^.

Re: Noobies!

From other peoples posts this sounds like an admission at alcoholics annonymous

So anyway, I'm Andrew, I'm 16 and i've been wargaming for about 5 years now. I play warhammer 40k, fantasy and it has been known for me to get involved in some rpg's. I also play with yu-gi-oh cards from time to time (I won the first game in the shop y'know) and I used to play Magic the gathering.

Never really got into the comic scene but that may change due to the fact we actually have a comic shop now. yay.


into rock, indie and a little bit of punk so s'all good.



anyway that was my confession.


peace out guys

Andrew
