The collected 5 issue mini series of #mothra Queen of the Monsters is released next week. It's a fun book, if a little brief. Always leave us wanting more, right?

And here's all the games we've been playing from Sep-Nov. A comparatively light period of gaming, as we've been pretty busy

To supporters of Ghost Stories for Christmas THANK YOU.

This year was our most ambitious yet.

Sold out venues (some selling out before we announced the show) and audience feedback suggest we've got the formula right.
