Cryptozoic to Add Watchmen to DC Comics DBG, Batman to Fluxx & Cake to Portal

Cryptozoic to Add Watchmen to DC Comics DBG, Batman to Fluxx & Cake to Portal
Board Game Publisher: Cryptozoic Entertainment
• Following the 2015 GAMA Trade Show, Cryptozoic Entertainment posted a recap of its activities at the show, noting that mere days after shipping out DC Comics Deck-Building Game: Crossover Pack 1, which features characters from the Justice Society of America, and having just recently announced DC Comics Deck-Building Game: Crossover Pack 3 – Legion of Super-Heroes, in 2015 it also plans to release DC Comics Deck-Building Game: Crossover Pack 4 – Watchmen. No details on characters or art yet, but I'd hope none of the new stuff will show up in it.

• Cryptozoic also notes that it's partnering with "Looney Labs to release a Batman edition of the game Fluxx". I expect riots on the streets; I also expect the combination to be a dose of 1960s silliness and fun. (An article on ICv2 notes that Adventure Time Fluxx is also in the works, along with Fluxx Dice, an expansion that can be used with any standalone Fluxx game. I contacted Looney Labs for more details, and LL's Amber Cook confirmed that the title are in the works, but the publisher needs approval for artwork and is focused on getting out Just Desserts first in April 2015 before moving on to these releases.)

• Cryptozoic showed off components from Portal: The Uncooperative Cake Acquisition Game, which from the most recent reports I've heard has a Q3 2015 release date.
