A Belated Comic-Con Interview Video.

by -RoG- on 08/25/2010, 2:57 pm

Looks like this is one of those weeks where I'm getting caught up on things now that our move is pretty much done with (except for the unpacking part). I already put up the long overdue photo gallery from our road trip to Mexico, so be sure to check that out if you haven't already. I was also just informed by Sam Proof that he just posted a lil' interview we did at the 2010 San Diego Comic-Con, so be sure to check this one out, because I unveil a *secret* about one of our recent games and you'll also get to see more footage of Abobo's Big Adventure in action!

You can watch the interview in a larger window here. He also stopped by our booth last year and you can check out that interview here if you missed it. Thanks again to Sam for doing another interview with us... hope we can do another one in 2011!

Upon An Oaken Throne, This Black Metal Master Awaits Goblets Of Royal Blood.

Mayhem - a band who simultaneously mastered black metal and bacon.

NOTE: Episode re-airs Saturday, November 20th at 2:30pm PST on G4. The segment is about the three "toughest rockers" - Ozzy, G.G. Allin, and Mayhem. Hope you can catch it! It's also available on iTunes, PSN, Xbox Live and Zune.

Yep, that's me. There's a new show called "That's Tough" coming to G4 TV in October focusing on the toughest people, places and things in the history of the world. Naturally, they chose to have me be on it. Har! They actually had me playing the lead guy from the infamous Norwegian black metal band Mayhem who killed himself years ago. Not sure when the episode / segment is gonna air for sure yet, but I'll be sure to post about it as soon as I hear more.

Anyway, it was a great shoot and I had a lot of fun being up on stage with that severed pig head while screaming in front of a crazed, headbanging audience. I've been a rocker of some sort in the last two shoots I've done... looks like I'm already being typecast. Actually, seeing myself in all that makeup really brings me back to the days when I was working on the ol' Metal Mockery site as I'm sure many of you old school I-Mockery chums recall. The Logo Deciphering section was always my personal favorite part of that site. Good times.

During some of my down time on the shoot, I was checking out one of the boxes filled with props and I found something that I knew would make for a perfect picture:

Warriors! Come out to playeeeeeaaaaaay!

By combining my black metal costume with the baseball gear I found, I turned myself into a member of the Baseball Furies gang from The Warriors! Now if you'll excuse me, I clearly need to go find some nail polish remover.

QUESTION: If I was going to start up a metal band of some sort, a) what would you name the band and b) what would be my stage name?

All Our Photos From The 2010 San Diego Comic-Con Are Up!

by -RoG- on 08/12/2010, 2:17 pm

It's been an insanely busy month what with moving 'n all, but I've finally finished putting together my gargantuan gallery of photographs from the 2010 San Diego Comic-Con! Check it out!

It always feels good to get a huge article like that published on the site, but the Comic-Con one is particularly special for me. Not only is it great to look back and see all the great memories from the convention, but completion of that article always means one very important thing to me: Halloween season is getting very close!

I-Mockery's annual "Two Months of Halloween" will be back once again this year and I'm definitely looking forward to it. Of course, I'm still in the midst of moving and have a million other things to get settled, but I'll do my best to keep the site updated regularly throughout the season. I was in a store just last night that already had a ton of Halloween stuff out, so you can expect a post about that soon.

Hmm... I just realized that I don't even know what I'm going to dress up as this Halloween. Time to start brainstorming. How about you guys? Have you already started planning your costumes?

San Diego Comic-Con Recovery.

by -RoG- on 08/01/2010, 12:43 pm

Just wanted to let you guys know that the 2010 San Diego Comic-Con was absolutely awesome and I am working on putting together another huge gallery of roughly 1000 photos from it. It's just gonna take a bit longer since I'm also in the process of packing up my place and moving (among other things that are keeping me plenty busy). You'd think a nomadic bastard like me would be used to moving by now and have it down to a science, but nope... it's just as time-consuming and exhausting as ever. I wish Elizabeth Montgomery would just show up, wiggle her nose and make all my crap instantly appear in a new home. That's what all witches should really do... start moving companies.

Anywho, I'll do my best to get this big photo gallery piece cranked out as soon as possible, and I'm sure it'll be worth the wait because we got some great photos of all the crazy costumes, toys and more.

In the meantime, please explain why this exists:

I Pity The Fool Who Don’t Come Play Abobo’s Big Adventure!

by -RoG- on 07/24/2010, 10:05 am

REMINDER: For those of you attending Comic-Con, I-Mockery is located in Row 300, Booth #A10 (located towards the back near the lounge area).

Mr. T plays Abobo's Big Adventure at the San Diego Comic-Con. Mr. T is angry because Abobo is even tougher than he is.

Yo ho ho! It's been insanely busy this year at Comic-Con, and that's probably because all the other guys weren't able to come this year and help out at the booth. As a result, I've been on duty since the convention started and haven't had much time to walk around yet... and today's the biggest day of the convention! Fortunately, I'll have some extra help on hand today and will do my best to walk around and take some pics for you guys whenever I have a chance. Looking forward to seeing all the crazy costumes once again. I mean, just look at that Mr. T guy. That thing is dead on!

In the meantime, check out this super nice review on Destructoid that they just posted about our upcoming game, Abobo's Big Adventure. Lots o' details on the game and impressions of it so far.

Anywho, I've gotta head over to the convention now, so I'll talk to you guys later on.

I-Mockery At The 2010 San Diego Comic-Con: Preview Night!

by -RoG- on 07/22/2010, 2:48 am

REMINDER: For those of you attending Comic-Con, I-Mockery is located in Row 300, Booth #A10 (located towards the back near the lounge area).

It's a little after midnight and I'm dead tired from setting up everything today at the I-Mockery Comic-Con booth, but I wouldn't miss it for the world, because I already had a blast talking with some I-Mockery fans and showing them the new Abobo's Big Adventure arcade cabinet! Huge thanks to Re for helping me get the booth set up today since we didn't have any other helpers on hand. She's a real trooper that one... be sure to check out some of her artwork at our booth or online!

Anywho, before I pass out, here are two photos that I'm pretty sure you'll all appreciate. First off, the grand unveiling of the completed Abobo's Big Adventure arcade cabinet at the I-Mockery booth!

Abobo's Big Adventure - The Arcade Cabinet!

Seeing it finally up 'n running at Comic-Con damn near brought a tear to my eye. However, that tear saw Abobo's angry stare and quickly scuttled itself back into the rear of my ocular cavity out of sheer terror.

The other picture I have for you guys is of me and my buddy Keith Apicary (Nathan Barnatt) and it sums up the San Diego Comic-Con experience in a nutshell. We haven't even had the first day of Comic-Con yet and this may turn out to be my favorite photo from the entire event.

Rog holds Keith Apicary in his mighty arms at the I-Mockery booth during the 2010 San Diego Comic-Con. Destined for love... and adventure!

Love sure is a beautiful thing isn't it?

Don't forget, if you're attending the San Diego Comic-Con this week, you can find our booth towards the back of row 300. Our booth number is A10. We're the ones with the big friggin' arcade cabinet and people wearing pickle hats..... so yeah, it's pretty hard to miss. If you're not at Comic-Con, check our Facebook and Twitter pages throughout the day as I (or Re) will be posting updates (including photos) whenever we can. I'll still try to post a few pics at the end of every day here in the ol' I-Mockery blog if I have the energy.

Ok, must sleep now, because tomorrow is the first full day o' Comic-Con madness and I needs me strength!
