Cool Nerdy Clash At Demonhead Fan Art

  

While doing research for a different project I'm working on for my main website, I stumbled across these cool notebook sketches by 8-Bit City detailing various entities and events from the game Clash At Demonhead (which I wrote about for Cracked five years ago). I particularly like this map; it reminds me a lot of video-game related sketches I used to make in my notebooks as a kid. The post appears to be a companion to this game-play log.

The blog also has scans of Nintendo Power's four-page piece from Issue 10 about CaD (which included character and monster names not in the instruction manual).

On a different note, looks like Spriter's Resource has sprite maps for Bang and the bosses from the game.

One Of My Secret Weaknesses Exposed: Maps In Books.

Okay, I can admit it. I'm a sucker for a book with a map in it. I just really like maps in regards to stories. When I was a kid, I used to make my own painstaking maps of where different things happened in my favorite stories.

So here's the blog Strange Maps. They have a current article regarding pulp crime novels with maps on the cover. The above is a scan of the novelization of the Alfred Hitchcock movie "Rope", with a map laying out the most important events. This pleases me to no end.
