Italian designer and web cartoonist RX has completed his “Comics Rule” RX and Mr. Death Series 2 resin figures and they turned out awesome!

Me and Mr. Death Resin Figure Set by RX

Check out these awesome new resin figures RX and Mr. Death! They were designed by Italian designer RX and are based on Gionta’s webcomic RX: Real Life Stories. If you’re not familiar with Gionta’s characters, RX is a pretentious loser still searching for himself after graduating from school.

The Shortpacked! Robin Desanto Statue

Shotpacked! by David Willis, The Blot’s favorite web comic about a toy store and the crazy people who work there, is releasing its third resin figurine with the good folks at Patch Together. After Willis’ popular Amber and Mike statues comes the Robin Desanto statue! Robin DeSanto isn't your ordinary toy store employee. When she was a toddler she was abducted by aliens and given special powers which augmented her strength, durability, and especially her speed.

Because of these powers, she worked for the government several years ago to fight the very aliens who abducted her! Oh, and she was also elected to a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives. But seriously, she's mostly just a simple retail worker…who can run really fast and smells like Skittles.

The Robin Desanto Shortpacked! Statue is a 7” resin figure, and is currently available for pre-order through Patch Together’s online store here for $34.95. The preorder period for this figure ends on November 10, 2010, after that only a very small number of extra figures beyond the number preordered will be produced and sold for $39.95. So if you think you might want one be sure to preorder now!

The Shortpacked! Mike Warner Statue

The Blot’s favorite webcomic, Shortpacked! By David Willis, is about to release its second resin statute and I can’t wait to get my hands on one. Produced by Patch Together, the Mike Warner figurine was crated to be in scale with the original Amber O’Malley Shortpacked! statue and will include a matching base. I was a little worried the figure wouldn’t be able to accurately capture Mike’s crazy looking hair in 3D form, but the fine folks at Patch Together really did a great job.


The Mike Warner Shortpacked! Statue is a 7” resin figure and is currently available for pre-order through Patch Together’s online store here for 39.95. It’s my understanding the figure has already been shipped to Patch Together from the manufacture, but for some reason it has not met its advertised estimated shipping date of June 2010. Look for the Mike Warner statue to ship sometime soon, so get those pre-orders in now!

The Shortpacked! Amber O’Malley Statue

Shotpacked! by David Willis, The Blot’s favorite web comic about a toy store and the crazy people who work there, is releasing the 6 inch Amber O’Malley figurine seen below in conjunction with the good folks at Patch Together. The Amber statue is the first of what The Blot hopes to be a full line of resin figures based on the cast of Shortpacked!, and is currently available for pre-order here for $39.95.


As any fan of Shortpacked! can attest, Amber’s weapon of choice is a corn popper push-toy, so no Amber figure would be complete without this classic pre-school toy. Best of all, it even comes with little balls floating in the corn popper push-toy’s translucent resin. How cool is that!?! I have to say, Willis and Patch Together did an excellent job taking a 2D character such as Amber and transforming her into a 3D resin figure.


This killer statue will only be available via preorder, and the preorder period for the Shortpacked! Amber statue ends on October 11, 2009. So if you’re interested in purchasing one make sure you get your order in before Oct. 11th, because once preorders are closed there will be no additional Amber statues produced. Also, Patch Together is estimating that the Shortpacked! Amber O’Malley statue will ship at the end of the year, and you will not be charged for the Shortpacked! resin figure until the statue becomes available. So go buy one today!

Starbuck’s Roasted Cylon Mug by Ctrl+Alt+Del

This is an exciting post for The Blot because it highlights two of my favorite things, the television show Battlestar Galactica and the gaming-related webcomic Ctrl+Alt+Del. I had originally intended to highlight some of my favorite webcomics over the past year, but for some reason I’ve done a really poor job of it. While this post isn’t actually about the Ctrl+Alt+Del webcomic, you might want to go check it out here nevertheless! What this post really is about is CAD’s Starbucks’s Roasted Cylon Mug, which is frakking awesome!


Starbucks’s Fresh Roasted Cylon logo is a spoof of the classic Starbucks Coffee logo with a Battlestar Galactica twist. Besides, at this point isn’t everyone’s favorite Starbuck really Kara Thrace anyway? You can purchase Ctrl+Alt+Del’s Starbuck’s Mug from SplitReason.com, the internet’s premiere clothing and accessory online store for Geeks and Gamers, for $9.95. This white 8oz. ceramic mug had been sold out for a while now, but thankfully it’s back in stock and The Blot can’t wait to order one.

Webcomic Artists at San Diego Comic-Con

The 2008 San Diego Comic-Con starts tomorrow so today will probably be my last day to highlight any SDCC exclusives or booths convention goers should check out. So in this post I wanted to shine a spotlight on two of my favorite webcomics whose artists will be selling their goods on the convention floor.

First artist/webcomic I’d like to recommend is Dave Willis’ Shortpacked! I know I’ve mentioned Willis’s comic before, but in a nut shell it’s a M-W-F webcomic, which follows the crazy exploits of Ethan, Amber, Robin, Mike, Ninja Rick, Faz, Ultra Car and Ronald Reagan as employees at Shortpacked!, a toy “store run by Glasso with plans for global conquest.” (link) The strip is hilarious, even if the idea of a webcomic about a toy store seems restrictive. Willis also typically throws in gag “strips that take place outside of the regular setting and continuity, in particular one-shots lampooning pop culture and comic figures such as Batman or Transformers.” (link) If you’d like to find out more about Shortpacked! check out this recent interview with Willis at ComicMix.com.


Willis can be found at the Blank Label Comics SDCC booth #1330 selling two different books collecting his Shortpacked! webcomics and limited edition prints.

The second webcomic I want to recommend is Matt Moylan’s weekly strip, Lil Formers. Lil Formers started out as a parody of all things Transformers, but after a year of Transformers comics Moylan decided it was time to expand the comic’s focus to now parody all things pop culture including cartoons, comics, toys and video games. (link) It’s a great walk down memory lane, especially if you grew up on Transformers like The Blot did.


Moyland has worked in the comic book industry since 2002 and currently serves as Marketing Manager for UDON Entertainment, the publisher of the aforementioned Street Fighter Tribute book. Moylan will be signing autographs at the Capcom SDCC booth #5113 on Saturday, July 26th from 12:00pm-1:00pm. While there he will be selling this very cool Street Fight Tribute book print, which you can see below, for $20 at the signing. If you can’t make it to the signing, you can also pick up his Street Fighter print at the UDON SDCC booth #5368 all weekend long.

Mortal Kombat vs. DC Comics - Worlds Collide

Following the success of company crossover fighting games like Marvel vs. Capcom and X-Men vs. Street Fighter in the 90’s, it was only a matter of time until we saw another versus style arcade game finally developed. Now comes news that Midway and DC Comics are joining forces to bring the heroes of the DC Universe and the warriors of Mortal Kombat together for the very first time in the new Mortal Kombat vs. DC Comics video game.


As a child of the 90’s I can’t even begin to determine the amount of quarters I spent playing Mortal Kombat back in the day. There was nothing better than beating an opposite and then killing them with Mortal Kombat’s patented “Finishing Move.” And now to be able to control both Mortal Kombat and DC Comic characters in a versus style fighting game might just be the thing needed to finally motivate me to retire my PS2 and look into getting a PS3 or Xbox360.

According to News-a-rama.com, “there will be two different stories, one told from the side of MK, one from the side of DC, where each universe is invaded by the opposite universe’s characters. These stories will be told in a new version of the traditional single player campaign. The story will be used to balance the fights more evenly, and will do so using established mythology. For instance, the story will feature magic factors, to weaken Superman against a character like Sub-Zero.” (link)

Already confirmed in the game are Superman and Batman from DC and Sub-Zero and Scorpion from Mortal Kombat. Be on the lookout for future confirmed characters and an official release date at WorldsCollide.com. In the meantime check out this awesome “first look” trailer for the game, which shows Batman and Sub-Zero going at it Mortal Kombat style.


There has been some serious mixed reactions to the announcement of Mortal Kombat vs. DC Comics, but my favorite commentary on it comes from David Willis’ Shortpacked!. Shortpacked! is one of my favorite webcomics and is updated 3-5 times a week. Check out Willis’ Mortal Kombat vs. DC Comics comic strip below and click here to find out more about Willis and his cast of Shortpacked! characters.
