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: The Dark Knight Rises - Third Official Trailer

With each trailer we get a clearer view of the film we're in store. I'll admit this is one I'm not looking forward too as much as I'd hoped. I guess it boils down to my hatred of Bane as a character and the fact that his introduction to the Batman Rogues Gallery was the kick off to some of my least favorite eras in the Batman continuity of old. It makes me cringe when others in my local comic shops occasionally hail the Batman back breaking story as a "classic". When in my mind it will always be a crude, shock event that was unabashed collector bait. And with Bruce Wayne out of action we had Jean-Paul Valley aka Azrael in that God Awful Batman armor. It was just a tough time in the 90's for a more traditional Batman fan. So having this Batman film trilogy that I've had so much love for to end with a Bane story just rubs me the wrong way. I'm trying to look past that and appreciate the project as a whole.
