CMON's SDCC Exclusives: A Betrayal to Loyal Fans and Backers?

Image
In recent years, CMON has built a reputation for creating some of the most beloved board games in the industry. Titles like Zombicide , Dune , Cyberpunk 2077 , Cthulhu: Death May Die , Arcadia Quest and Marvel United have garnered a dedicated fanbase, many of whom have supported these games through Kickstarter campaigns and retail purchases. However, CMON's recent decision to make exclusive content for these games available only at San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC) has sparked significant outrage among its loyal supporters. The Exclusivity Issue At the heart of the controversy are the exclusive expansions and content for Zombicide: White Death, Cthulhu: Death May Die, and Marvel United. These exclusives include: Zombicide: White Death TMNT Expansion: Featuring comics and Rocksteady and Bebop miniatures for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles expansion. This expansion is only available at SDCC, but was highly requested by backers during the entire campaign. Godzilla Expansion for Cthulhu: D

Another Villain for The Amazing Spider-Man 2


If you haven't already heard the guys at ComicBookMovie claims they know that and a whole lot more about another villain in The Amazing Spider-Man 2. According to the site, Feore will play as Adrian Toomes  (Vulture). What does this mean for the movie? Will it become another Spider-Man 3? Well if you include the already announced Electro and Rhino along with Norman Osborn you have the makings of the Sinister Six. I have held this theory since the initial announcement of Foxx as Electro that Sony will probably consider it for The Amazing Spider-Man 3.


They already have Conners (Lizard) from the first film and they could even use Doctor Octopus or Sandman as they already appeared in the prior incarnation of the series. While they might have a different origin the premise and the knowledge of the characters still remain to the viewing public. And if everyone is worried about too many villains and not enough screen time to tell their stories right I see two options. First would be the natural thing IMO to have prequel comics. I mean Marvel already does this for their movies and personally I believe the movies should entice people to buy comics anyways. The second would be a two-part 3rd movie. With that large of a cast it would be easier to spread the movie out, other films like The Hobbit, Twilight (cringe), Harry Potter, and others have done this successfully, why not The Amazing Spider-Man 3?

Amazing Spider-Man 2 staring Andrew Garfield (Peter Parker), Emma Stone (Gwen Stacey), Jamie Foxx (Electro), Paul Giamatti (Rhino), Colm Feore (Vulture) and Chris Cooper (Osborn) opens May 2nd 2014.
