Bang! New From Dark Horse

A new spy thriller with some science fiction splashed in the mix. Looks interesting. I like to check out different titles every so often, because comic books doesn’t always mean superheroes. Check out Bang!’s trailer through Dark Horse Comics YouTube channel:

“Just Talkin'” You All

Kyle Meagher is sharing with our listeners his single “Just Talkin'”. Many might know Kyle from his Netflix show Anne with an E. However, Kyle wants you to take notice of his single “Just Talkin'”.

This is the type of song I naturally gravitate towards because of the upbeat sound and fun lyrics. Pure Pop I know, but I really enjoy fun songs like this. Kyle is sharing his single through his YouTube channel, by way of his music video for the single.

As we say we are having fun and we hope you are having fun. So check out Kyle Meagher’s music video for “Just Talkin'” and if you enjoy his sound give him some love and support through your digital vendor of choice – Richard:

The total cards in this Legendary Duelist Magical Hero booster set is 56 to include: 29 Commons; 10 Rares; 8 Super Rares; and 9 Ultra Rares.

But that’s not all that will be hitting stores this Friday. There is also the Ash Blossom Accessories! These are coming to you earlier than expected. The release date was originally February 14, but Konami wanted to give everyone a surprise, so they moved up the release date to this Friday! Accessories that will be available will be: a Gaming Mat; Card Sleeves; a Card Case; and a Duelist Portfolio.
