The Legend of Dark Link

I caught this awesome Internet video over at The Warp Zone on Youtube and I was laughing hysterically the whole time. It traces back what really happened when Link wandered into that cave and met the wizard to get his sword. Let's just say he wasn't the only one out adventuring that day... Dark Link was right there with him!!! Gotta love some racist humor, especially when it involves kid punching... Check it out after the jump...

Mount Playmore by ???

I found this excellent design for a t-shirt over at Busted Tees and I am pissed because the site does not name the designer of the shirt. It is entitled Mount Playmore, and features the Nintendo  Holy Quadumvirate  of Mario, Donkey Kong, Samus Aran, and Link set in stone like they rightfully deserve. I hate not being able to being able to give credit to an artist, but this one was too good not to share. You can pick this one up for 20 bucks by clicking here and can see the detailed photo of the design after the jump...

Scott Pilgrim & Ramona As Link & Zelda by Bryan Lee O'Malley

There is no denying how great Bryan Lee O'malley's Scott Pilgrim books are. I for one have been a huge fan ever since the first time I opened a page in those little black & white graphic novels. To me it has always been the distinctive style of art that O'Malley has put forward with the series that makes it so special. So somebody posted a sketch done by O'Malley back at Hero Con 2008 that depicted Scott & Ramona as Link and Zelda, and boy does this look great. Check after the jump for the full size pic...

Josip Kelava Takes On His Favorite Heroes & Villains... Typographical Style

Josip Kelava likes to make fan art. Nothing really special about that in itself. But when your creations look as cool as these 8 typographic pictures do... well, the they are definitely special. Kelava hits up some faves (Batman, Master Chief) and some of the more obscure (Evangelion Neon Genesis?) but they are the ones he loves the most. You can click here to see more of Josip's art, and see all 8 pieces here after the jump...

Oh... Now I Get It! (No I Don't)

Talk about confusion. Although I am a huge fan of almost every Legend of Zelda game in the franchise's history, I have to admit that I have often been confused as to exactly WHEN in time certain games take place. The series jumps around quite a bit, with the two original games (Zelda and Adventures of Link) occurring last in time frame. So what does a real fan of Link and the gang really need to properly understand everything? How about and infographic from the new art book, Hyrule Historia, that chronicles everything that have ever occurred in the Zelda universe. Here you go... your welcome. Click after the jump for the full graphic.Now get back to Skyward Sword and handle your business...

2 Different Links To The Zelda Franchise.... See What I Did There?

Because I used the word Link in the title of a post about Zelda.... get it? I am so witty. Anywho, here is a piece of Fan Art and a video featuring the Zelda characters that is sure to scratch the itch you may have waiting for a new Zelda adventure worthy of this storied franchise.

First up, we got 'The Final Boss' by deviant artist Tsaoshin. It features a treu to scale look at just how much the odds were stacked against Link when he defeated Gannon on Death Mountain back in the day. That's one strong ass triforce!!!

I only have one beef: I see Links sword and a triforce, but where are the arrows that you need to kill Gannon? If you went against him without them, you were doomed to fail and couldn't beat him, right???

Next up, here is a "Link To The Future", a fan made video that does an excellent job of mixing up the Zelda franchise and Back To The Future. This one is excellent. See for yourself.



How great was that? Doc Brown: "You gotta come back with me" Link: "Wait, what... I just got here!". Very well done. Great job guys. Hope these helped you gte your Hyrule fix. 

Link, Say Anything Style (I Love This One)!!!

I love this picture of Link as the main character from Say Anything by Fatheed. I love this... love it!

LEGO Iconic Vol #4 by Jeff Bond

I am such a huge Lego nerd that words can not explain. Soooo I've decided to use my favorite blog site CCD.com as an outlet to get some of this stuff that I see every day, built out of bricks, out of my skull and onto the blogosphere where it can't hurt my cerebral cortex. Each month I'll be posting the best of the best hoping to inspire the Lego maniac in each of you...young and old.  Enjoy!

Mookage 161 prepared these neat little versions of the most recent 

Dr. Who and a couple of Daleks.

Aaron Dayman not only hooked up an awesome Star Wars-inspired custom entitled 'W-Wing'...

 In the 'Legend of Zelda' game for the original Nintendo Entertainment

System, there were these little evil-doers which resembled a delicious

stack of buttery pancakes and whose sole mission were to suck you dry of a hard earned weapon you had just paid mucho rupees for. These fortunate little bottom-feeders were called Like-Likes. That is why I decided to name a new feature article I will be preparing for 'Cultural Compulsive Disorder' after them. Like the fortunate bottom-feeder that I am, I will be scouring the blogosphere for loose related images, video clips, and articles that I found interesting, exciting, or maddening on other blogsites. Things that someone else has, no doubt, painstakingly worked on for weeks, even months, yet I will show no remorse borrowing from them and regurgitating on C-C-D, for you guys to appreciate as well, with all due credit given to it's origins, of course. Things that they liked...and I like...so I'd like to see if you like. So without further ado, I give you "Like!-Like?"

I'd be remissed if I didn't I didn't include a link this week for the astonishingly fun Super Mario Bros Crossover the guys over at Newgrounds posted from creators Exploding Rabbit. The game appears to be a complete version of Super Mario Bros in which you can play as fan favorites 'Mega Man', Simon Belmont from 'Castlevania', Link from the original 'Legend of Zelda'and a few others.
