A couple of weeks ago, I posted a collection of poster art from The Bottleneck Gallery featuring all kinds of geek culture art. One of those pieces included a Gremlins print from artist Ape Meets Girl a.k.a. Kevin Wilson.
As it turns out, that piece is packed to the brim with cool little Easter eggs from film and TV. There are 84 Easter eggs to be exact. You can take on the challenge of trying to find and name them all, or you can look at the cheat sheet that released below.
The Gremlins print is called "The Old Curiosity Shop," and as you can see, it focuses on the little creepy antique shop where inventor Randall Peltzer purchases the mysterious creature Mogwai.
When I originally saw the poster at I noticed a few Easter eggs stick out like Freddy Krueger's glove, Jason's hockey mask, and the mask from Mask,...

Here's a game for those of you who want to believe. Idw just announced that they're partnering with Pandasaurus Games to create a strategy board game based on The X-Files. The game will focus on the first three seasons of the show, with most players playing as investigators like Scully and Mulder trying to uncover clues. One player, however, will play the role of The Smoking Man and his minions, trying to obscure the truth from the rest of the table.
The game is being designed by Kevin Wilson, the designer of the hit horror/strategy game 'Arkham Horror'. It will also feature art direction from menton3, the illustrator running The X-Files Season 10 comic. Idw Games will launch this great big box of mysteries in July with a suggested retail price of $59.99. With that price-point and Kevin Wilson at the helm, this is sure to be an in-depth, deep strategy game.

I can't say I'm totally board game savvy (as evidenced by the fact that my first game of "Settlers of Catan" was just a few weeks ago), but I do understand the prospect of a "Civilization" board game is a big deal. And looking at that art with all the cards and nations laid out above makes my mind just about cave in on itself.
Fantasy Flight Games is in charge of the "Civ" board game, and they've brought on Kevin Wilson as game designer. You may know his work from games like "Arkham Horror" and "Cosmic Encounter." I didn't, but if you play board games, you probably do.
The game is scheduled for release this fall, which should be sometime around the release of "Civilization 5." That's like releasing two "Star Wars" movies within a month of each other and expecting the masses to not go insane.
