Joe Customs Critique Facebook User, Felix Stratton created the first custom that I was aware off based on the Sam Wells released concept art that showed up right here at Nerdrahtio. I already showed his work (with permission) but here are some now complete images. (he did beat the mobster to completion as far as I know, I’m just behind doing podcast, and other background site stuff when I do get free time -Sam)
I discovered someone constructed a massive recreation of the Pillar of Autumn out of legos. Check it out HERE.

Looking for classic style superhero toys ? After the success of their wave 1 kickstarter Amazing Heroes is back for a wave 1.5.
Press release below:
With only a few days to go, the Amazing Heroes Wave 1.5 Kickstarter campaign has released a preview of the upcoming digital Amazing Heroes Handbook, written by comic book historian Christopher Irving (Leaping Tall Buildings: The Origins of American Comic Books, with photographer Seth Kushner) and featuring vintage comic book stories courtesy of the Digital Comics Library. The cover is by artist Mitch Ballard and designs is by David Go with Peter Go.
“The Handbook was a blast to write,” Irving says. “Black Terror and the Golden Age Dare-Devil are two of my first favorite Golden Age characters. To get the chance to write about them with Stardust, Captain Action, Silver Streak, and the Green Turtle was a dream come true. Now I’m just waiting to have the figures in hand next summer.”
Amazing Heroes Wave 1 was successfully funded last August. Wave 1.5 will add three more figures to this line of retro action figures: Silver Streak, Champion of Mars, and Michael Allred’s cult indy comics character Madman. It will also add Artist Edition cards for each figure, drawn by a selection of comics luminaries.
“I have a tremendous amount of respect and admiration for these talented artists,” Bill Murphy of Fresh Monkey Fiction says. “It’s really been a dream come true to work with these guys, and I still can’t believe how lucky we are to have them contributing to Amazing Heroes.”
Allred will draw both Madman and Dare-Devil, Erik Larsen on Stardust the Super-Wizard, Reilly Brown on Champion of Mars, Tim Seeley on Silver Streak, Tom Fowler on Black Terror, Sonny Liew on Green Turtle, and Phil Hester on Captain Action. If funded, the card backs will feature original four-panel strips drawn by each artist.
The Amazing Heroes Wave 1.5 Kickstarter is set to end at 3 AM Eastern time on Sunday, December 21.
For many of you new to board gaming, or those of you who are not board gamers but are interested in getting into hobby board gaming, navigating through all the different games and game styles out there can be challenging to say the least. And to veteran board gamers like me, we often get tired of when trying to explain what we do to non – gamers getting asked “Is it like Risk?, or Is it like Settlers of Catan?” No, not really… Well kinda…. But there’s so much more to it. We also get tired of having our hobby associated with mass market games such as Mouse Trap and Candy Land. These are just cheap poor quality games in general and in no way reflect what we actually do. Anyways, I found this article and I think it really explains it in a very clear concise way. I hope this is helpful and clears up better exactly what hobby board gaming is for you guys.

For my own sanity, and for a clear fresh start, I am rebranding this site as Nerdrahtio. Rahtio, being from the greek word ratio (rah-she-oh) for reason. The H added to help achieve correct pronunciation and for a unique flair. This name change is a bit annoying, the previous .com still functions for now, and I’d like to ask everyone to update your bookmarks and like the appropriate FB page.
Plenty more fun stuff to come later and I look forward to the future.
