In the NICK OF TIME! I bet you thought I forgot about the monthly pinups. No, I didn’t forget about them at all — I was just having a really tough time choosing.

In this segment, I pick two well-deserving characters from the science-fiction/fantasy universe. If this is your first time checking out the monthly sci-fi pinups, check out our hot selections for January and February.

Until now, we’ve been looking entirely at movie and TV hotties. For this month’s pinups, I wanted a different medium. So I searched through comics, cartoons, and games. Plenty of potentials were available, but the winners were clear.

The gaming world has seen a lot of exciting new releases over the last couple of months. I’ve been avoiding the mainstream games for my reviews (with the exception of my Skyrim review) because I wanted to branch out into quirky, eclectic games that not everyone has seen. But I do play a lot of mainstream games. Today we’re going to do a double-header, so grab your controller of choice and strap in.

Dear Diary,

A few days ago, I awoke in a strange town, after being spirited away in the night by fairies.

Ha! Ha! Okay, Diary, you caught me — what really happened was that I got drunk and fell asleep in the back of a wagon full of chickens. The owner discovered me beneath the straw when I punched two of his chickens. I sent one flying out of the truck where it bounced off a tree, rolled through the dirt and ran, squawking into the thick forest to freedom. The other hit its owner in the back of the head.
