The paper cover integrates a custom matrix of 180 two-millimetre RGB LEDs, soldered onto a flexible circuit board with a thickness of just a tenth of a millimetre.

The circuit board is sandwiched between layers of paper, creating a bendable cover that measures roughly five millimetres at its thickest point, where the rechargeable coin-cell batteries are housed.

The game is controlled using seven touch sensors that are etched into the circuit board to replace physical buttons, and the falling tetrominoes appear as small cells of light that shine through the paper.

I love this idea - and its 2001-meets-MIDSOMMAR aesthetic:

Klumpenâ„¢ is a complete, off-grid utility core containing everything required for modern life: solar-generated electricity, satellite broadband, shower, lavatory, and a compact kitchen.

RETURN OF THE SCORPION!

Been fascinated by this little Dime Action Book’s existence since I wrote my book on comics and transmedia back in 2012 (ohmyfuck it’s been HOW long??): CAPT. MARVEL: RETURN OF THE SCORPION is one of the earliest (if not the earliest?) instances of a sequel to a film – in this case, Republic Pictures’ seminal THE ADVENTURES OF CAPTAIN MARVEL serial (I am and forever will be a movie serial otaku) – that’s done in a different medium than the original. Chuffed to finally add it to The Collection.
