A looooong time ago I ordered a case of soda from the Jones Soda Co.  But this was not just any old case of delicious soft drinks, this was a case of soda with a Dungeons & Dragons theme! I held out on drinking them for a while, mostly because they were sitting in my closet and not in my immediate thoughts. Yesterday I saw the box and decided it was time to do crack them open, and to write a review of each flavor over the next few days.

Todays Flavor: Illithid Brain Juice

The Illithid are a race of psionic powered monsters also known as Mind-Flayers. They look like squid headed humans, a beast straight out of a Lovecraft tale.  Each drink has a description on the back of the label. This one states:  To a mind flayer, nothing tastes sweeter than yummy brain juice. Now you can feed your own inner elder brain. Tentacles not required.

Effect: You are stunned (save ends)  After Effect: You feel smarter for 1d10 minutes.

My initial theory was that the contents of the bottle was juice obtained from the brain of a slain Illithid. However the description on the label tells a different tale. The beverage is in fact merely the drink of choice for the Illithid race. I don’t know which option is more unappetizing. Also I did not feel much smarter after I finished…

The fluid is a pale purple color and tastes like a melted purple Otter Pop. Over all the soda was good, but could have used more sugar.

Your ticket buys the whole seat…. but you’ll only need the eeeeeeeeeeeeeeedge!

While in general, I’m not too interested in the upcoming Capt. America movie. Why they cast the human torch as Steve Rogers I’ll never understand. (Maybe cuz Johnny Storm is dead now?)

But this picture of the Red Skull is a step in the right direction! Bravo make up team! Bravo!

…as it should be.

A mashup by  youtube user TheTrailerCREAT0R, that proposes a version of the upcoming X-Men First Class… if it had the ACTUAL members of the x-men’s first class.

I absolutely HATE comic book based films that decide to ignore canon. Would it be soooo hard to make a film about Cyclops, Marvel Girl, Beast, Angel, and Ice Man as teens?

The answer is no. No it would not.
