American Comic Strip blog, Stripper’s Guide, has up a post on a Masters of the Universe comic strip that was published for just shy of a year from July 1986 through June 1987. There was apparently both a daily strip and a weekly Sunday strip. Alan Holtz, the Stripper’s Guide blogger, is clearly not much of a He-Man fan, but did some research and found little to no information on this strip from fan sites or the like after some extensive googling. As a casual, He-Man fan, this is the first I have heard of any such strip and would love to see it in its entirety if it can be found.

If you know anything about this strip or have anything to add, post in the comments. We’d love to hear what you know.

I’m not normally wild about Transformers busts, but this one tempts me a little bit. The DST busts have been stepping it up lately.

PSP Metal Gear Fans have a reason to rejoice, for now there is an actual factual Metal Gear Solid game set within the series’s canon. The two MGS Acid games were nice, but their card game style can’t replace the stealth action that the series is known for. With the PSP’s control scheme, some big changes had to be made to the actual gameplay. Even so, it’s the same style of Metal Gear that we know and love.

August has proved to be quite good to survival horror fans. With new information being leaked on a near-constant basis for games such as Resident Evil and Silent Hill, and even some not-so-streamlined info, it’s no surprise that fans of the genre are biting their nails as to any visuals released. Thankfully, those seem to be in steady supply as well.

Tonight, Wednesday August 29th, at 9 PM EDT, Discovery’s Mythbusters will be taking on Marvel Superheroes!

The show’s description reads:

You’re not seeing things. As uncomfortable as it is, it’s true. The Mythbusters are wearing their underpants on the outside. And why? Because this episode is the Superhero Hour — the Marvel comic maestros are put under the MythBusters microscope.

For those living under a rock, Mythbusters is a television program that takes urban myths and determines through experiment whether the myths are true or false. I can only imagine what they’ll do with Marvel.
