Yup, that's me doing a cameo on our good friend Marco Dimaano's manga - inspired comic book series Angel Ace! The series tells the story of Angel, a beautiful young woman who has somehow gained the ability to fly. Check out the new, improved site, powered by *ahem* Tala Studios (a.k.a. Arnold and myself).

Incidentally, it was Marco who was responsible for introducing Arnold and me to each other around 5 years ago...and of course, the rest is history. (:

***
Keep your eyes peeled for my Arnold's interview on UNTV. We both haven't caught it yet but I've been getting text messages from friends saying they've seen it at odd hours on the channel this whole week.

Watched Arnold play Munchkin with our friends last weekend. If you've ever played D&D in your life, you'll have a blast with this really funny, fast-playing card game that captures the essence of the dungeon experience . . . with none of that stupid roleplaying stuff.


The game is designed by Steve Jackson and the cards sport wonderful illustrations by cartoonist John Kovalic. You begin the game as a 1st level human with 'no class'. Via cards, you get to acquire races, classes, magic items, armor, potion, etc that you can use to combat 'scary' monsters of varying levels such as the Undead Horse, the Net Troll, the Unspeakable Awful Indescribable Horror, and *shudder* the Potted Plant. The object is to reach level 10, and by the time someone does, you'll all have laughed yourselves silly!

(The 'magic weapon' featured in the card above is a Friendship Potion that you can obviously use to pacify dangerous monsters.)
