Batman-News.com: A Lovecraft reference in the accalaimed Gotham Academy comic book series.

Bleeding Cool: A Lovecraftian take on the Arthurian legend, in the new comic book series Unholy Grail (based on this report it isn’t really clear what the Lovecraftian element is, so we’ll have to wait and see).

Game Industry News: Syrinscape announces Lovecraft-related activities at the upcoming UK Games Expo in Birmingham in June.

Attendees of UKGE will be treated to the debut of the immersive new Syrinscape Sound Cave in the Trade Hall, where a live microphone will be set up for attendees to deliver their best “maddening voice” will be combined en masse to build the insanity-inducing cacophony that is Lovecraft’s Shoggoth creature, to be released in a SoundPack later this year.

Syrinscape is also thrilled to announce the forthcoming SoundPack, Cthulhu Rises DoomPack, which will release during UK Games Expo. Cthulhu Rises contains six spine-tinglingly immersive locations and encounters inspired by the Cthulhu mythos. Along with the mighty Cthulhu, Nyarlathotep, the Mi-Go, Great Old Ones and Outer Gods alike, this six-pack of sonic doom and horror will have gamers playing on the edge of insanity.

The Geekiary: Mighty Monster Mayhem will be released on Steam VR’s HTC VIVE on April 20. According to the official synopsis:

Renowned for your research in cryptozoology and mutations, you were ridiculed and outcast from the scientific community while trying to prove the existence of monsters. After recombining cryptid DNA, you found a way to bolster the human immune system and increase strength. However, your research has been deemed fraudulent – and the local Cryptozoological Research and Progenation chapter has cut your funding. In a last-ditch effort to validate your work, you’ve decided to give the scientific community a live demonstration by drinking one of your molecular mutation liquids and transforming into a legendary monster …

Choose to blend your DNA with one of five different creatures including Cthulhu Carl, Ronald the Rock, Ian Insectoid, Toni the Oni, or Gorzilla (a.k.a., “Todd” – who doesn’t like labels) and start wreaking havoc across town. Use the HTC Vive’s motion controllers to tear down skyscrapers, munch on unsuspecting pedestrians, and monster-punch everything you see. Need to reach a new vantage point or hit a target that’s just out of reach? No problem: Use the motion controllers to climb the tallest buildings and throw objects like the good monster you are.
