Finds Of The Week 006: Gunslingers, Hellspawn, And Vengeance
We’re back, and we’ve brought finds.
It’s week #6 of our Finds of the Week series and we have items for you from all four corners of the pop culture world. From the realm of anime and manga, we’re bringing you Trigun, one of the most memorable anime of the 90s, and Miura’s Berserk, the manga that brought the dark fantasy genre to power. In the land of video games, we have Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance, the new release from Atlus that delivers new storylines and characters and even better gameplay than the original Shin Megami Tensei V. For the collectors among us, we have Spawn, the iconic character from the brilliant mind of Todd McFarlane, helping McFarlane Toys celebrate 30 years of greatness. And last, but certainly not least, the Dark Knight himself, brought to life in Christopher Nolan’s epic and critically acclaimed trilogy. Are you excited yet? I thought so.
Trigun: Complete Anime Series Boxset
Sci-fi, comedy, and gunslingers – what more could you want from an anime? Trigun, an anime based on the manga by Yasuhiro Nightow, began in 1998 and ran for 26 episodes. Despite its short run, it has left a lasting impression. Vash the Stampede, our gun-slinging, doughnut-loving pacifist with a huge bounty on his head, teams up with unforgettable side characters to take down chilling villains in this Western-style, post-apocalyptic show. Whether you are a fan of anime, an old fan of Trigun, or a new fan of Trigun Stampede, this is a boxset you won’t want to miss. Get it now on Amazon.
Spawn Action Figures, Case Of 6: Wave 7, McFarlane Toys 30th Anniversary
Todd McFarlane created Spawn when he was just 16 years old, so it feels right that Spawn is taking center stage as part of McFarlane Toys’ 30th anniversary celebration. This collection features Spawn in three of his most iconic renditions. It’s a collector’s dream: in addition to display stands and beautiful collectible art cards, the case of six includes two of each Spawn, meaning you’ll have one to display and pose and one sealed figure to add to your collection. We can’t think of a better way to celebrate Spawn’s history and get excited for his many comic and movie appearances to come. Get it now on Entertainment Earth.
Berserk, Volume 1: Deluxe Hardcover Edition By Kentaro Miura
When you think of dark fantasy manga, you think of Berserk. This boundary-pushing, best-selling, violent, fascinating, and shockingly hilarious manga follows the lone swordsman, Guts, in his pursuit of vengeance. This beautiful deluxe hardcover edition of Kentaro Miura’s work includes volumes 1-3 of the manga and displays Miura’s incredible illustrations at their very best. This is a book you will want for your shelves – just maybe not for bedtime reading. Get it now on Amazon.
Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance On PlayStation 5 (Steelbook Launch Edition)
Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance launched on June 14, 2024, and it did not disappoint. The original Shin Megami Tensei V reached us back in 2021; a slick, modern update on everything we love about the Megami Tensei video game series. With its post-apocalyptic setting, fast-paced role-playing gameplay, and amazing soundtrack, the fifth installment hit all the right notes. Vengeance is all of that and more. Developer Atlus has outdone itself with a new separate storyline – the Path of Vengeance – with new characters, new plotlines, and fantastic new battles, as well as more opportunities than ever to explore an eerily beautiful post-apocalyptic Tokyo. Whether you’ve played V before or are completely new to the game, Shin Megami Tense V: Vengeance is the gaming experience you’ve been looking for. Get it now on Amazon.
The Dark Knight Trilogy (4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray)
“As a man, I’m flesh and blood; I can be ignored, I can be destroyed. But as a symbol… as a symbol, I can be incorruptible. I can be everlasting.” With its stellar cast, incredible cinematography, and dark, compelling visuals, Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy stands out as three of the best Batman movies. The pacing is excellent, the dialogue is punchy and memorable, and Nolan brings our favorite characters to life in a respectful but heart-breakingly unforgiving way. While Batman continues to grace our screens portrayed by great actors, The Dark Knight trilogy remains an epic and timeless tribute to one of DC’s most celebrated heroes. Get it now on Amazon.
