Marvel Multiverse Table Top Role-Playing Game - Summer 2023

  A new Marvel TTRPG is heading our way for Summer 2023. I have some really fond memories of the Marvel Superheroes Roleplaying game put out by TSR in the 1980's. It was right along side Dungeons & Dragons as one of my introductory games to ttrpgs. This new game looks to be based purely on a six-sided dice system. The playtest rulebook for the game is available now for anyone who wants to run an early version of the game through its paces before the finalized version comes out next year. I'll admit I'm curious enough make that purchase myself. Here is the official press release from Marvel:  MARVEL LAUNCHING CORE RULEBOOK FOR NEW TABLETOP ROLE-PLAYING GAME IN SUMMER 2023   ‘MARVEL MULTIVERSE ROLE-PLAYING GAME: CORE RULEBOOK’ AVAILABLE JUNE 2023   FOLLOWED BY ‘MARVEL MULTIVERSE ROLE-PLAYING GAME: THE CATACLYSM OF KANG’ AVAILABLE JULY 2023     Use the D616 game system to embody your favorite Super Heroes and Super Villains!     New York, NY— August 22, 2022 –  New adventu

Video: Disney's John Carter Trailer

Disney is trying out another action adventure film, by adapting the Edgar Rice Burroughs, John Carter of Mars to the big screen. I'll be the first to admit I know nothing about this character or the storylines surrounding him. My only exposure to the character was a single issue of the Marvel Comic from the 70's that I picked up at the comic book exchange that the Bladensburg Public Library in Prince Georges County, MD.

That little library in Maryland holds so many of the books and comic books that laid the foundation for some of my many interests that I have today and my love of reading & music. Makes me want to take my kids to the library this weekend... BUT I DIGRESS.. JOHN CARTER, back on topic.

Yeah I don't know much about the character, I know so much more about Burroughs' other character Tarzan. Since this is an adventure with a science fiction flavor I'll at least keep my eye on it. The fact that it will be in 3D isn't a selling point for me. It might be lumped along with Prince of Persia: Sands of Time... something I just wait to see on DVD or Cable. The trailer looks good enough, I still can't really tell what the story is though.
