Dvarsh, An Introduction by Robert Stickmanz

The first manifestation of A Galaxy Called Dallas was actually a hobby blog. I used it to talk about geek culture including books, cons, movies, etc. One of my first reviews that I ever did was of a book Sleeper Awakes by Robert Stickmanz which is part of his Hidden Lands of Nod series. That was a little over seven years ago and since then he has added a book of the Dvarsh language. A heady endeavor which has already garnered an award from the Austin press. 

We have procured copies for sale in the shop at $19.95 each. Feel free to check out his website and if you are interested in his books, we can get them for you.


Dvarsh, An Introduction

Where's Wolverine?

Yes, Wolverine is on his way back. But where can you find him? Over the next three months and starting with this week's Captain America you will be able to find end credits at the back of these issues giving you clues on where he is. Don't miss out on these issues!
