Pick Your Pickle and Prepare for Puns: Pickleball's Board Game Just Launched. A fast, fun, irreverent board game that celebrates the joy of Pickleball. Fans of silly puns, pickles, and fast-paced games alike have a new game to add to their list of must-haves: HotShot Pickleball. This delightful card-drawing board game is quick to learn and gives a surprising amount of opportunity to lightly strategize as you race to the ball and attempt to hit it back over the net to your opponent. The debut release from indie studio Midnight Trading Co., HotShot Pickleball was made while game designer Robert Gelb was recovering from an Achilles injury sustained, ironically, by playing Pickleball. For those who haven’t heard of pickleball, it's the fastest-growing sport in the world, with over 32 million players last year. HotShot Pickleball is a lively, family-friendly game that combines the fun of the sport with a cast of quirky, pickle-themed characters like Stew Cumber, Kim Chee, and Corni

“The Big Burn” part one of five! Two-Face’s first epic in The New 52 sees Batman unraveling the mysterious connections between Harvey Dent’s life and the origin of Carrie Kelley!

Two-Face


I'm a big Two-Face fan. I love what Tomasi did with him during Villains Month, so this is going to be a great issue, right?

How foolish I can be sometimes to think such things.

I tried to enjoy this issue, but I just didn't. It's a slow, overly wordy yarn which slowly takes us nowhere. Other than telling the New 52 version of Two-Face's origin, this entire issue could be skipped without losing much vital information. A group of gangs are bonding together to push out the crazies, this girl who scarred Harvey is leading them and Batman's on the case. Except for the scarring of Harvey, you could give that information in maybe one more page? I can think of almost nothing in these other pages of any entertainment value except for the art which is, as usual, brilliant. However, I can't recommend an issue just based off art.

I'd suggest waiting for the next issue before jumping on to this arc.
