Research

While it is great to see @soengery.bsky.social ‘s PC vatspawn Hate Pit and Glow Pit make an appearance, it just dawned on me that Marie’s OG vatspawn Bucket does not. Sorry Bucket! I should have caught this sooner and petitioned Marie for an appearance

I just got this amazing book from @soengery.bsky.social in the mail! It’s a game! It’s a comic! It’s the generator for your next TTRPG character! I am a biased as I wrote the forward and am Marie’s sometimes DM but it is thrilling to see such a work that combines cartooning and TTRPG book like this

I am also obsessed with any scrap of Tsutomu Nihei’s Tower Dungeon I can get my hands on. Revisiting the same few bits I have access to so much makes me feel like a kid again

Some old comics I have been spending time with this week:
Chronicles of Corum #1 by Baron and Mignola
Legends of the DC Universe #22 by R & J-M Lofficer and Ladronn
Omac #2 by Kirby
The Original Black Cat #2 by Lee Elias (the writer is still not positively known)

Some excellent mail from @benlaurence.bsky.social . The best way to relax the eve of Record Store Day

I am home to some nice mail: three play report zines Sam Mameli made covering some sessions played in my now dormant #megadungeon game

Another completed quest

I got my copy of @artbrister.bsky.social ‘s PakPak ShopShop in the mail. It looks amazing

I picked back up my reread of Jack Kirby’s Fourth World last week. I feel like this panel from “The Pact” is a good one to keep in mind these days

I have been running a solo #OSE game since November 2023. I have let it take me wherever the game needs to go. Today, that was running my first skirmish in Chainmail
