A dynamic duo of issues about a dynamic duo of heroes! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:46:50 We actually talk about even more issues than just the two! But those are the focus of the story, certainly. We also have a thrilling letters section, with some never before asked questions! A landmark episode, to be sure. Join us next week for an episode about an alternate Freedom Five line-up... which we've already recorded! 

Two issues today? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:40:25 No, actually more than two issues! We have a LOT of issues, and we talk about many of them. That could be the tagline of The Letters Page, actually. Get your questions for "Young Legacy and Expatriette team-up" and "Alternate Freedom Five line-up" in ASAP! And Christopher will be at PAX Unplugged this weekend, so come find him!

The saltiest Editor's Note! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:47:18 Christopher is sitting! Adam did art! We eat candy! And talk about a schedule! Upcoming schedule:  Tuesday, December 5th: Episode #269: Writers' Room: Young Legacy and Expatriette team-up Tuesday, December 12th: Episode #270: Writers' Room: Alternate Freedom Five Line-Up (not Disparation) Tuesday, December 19th: Editor’s Note #74 Tuesday, December 26th: Episode #271: Writers’ Room: Captain Cosmic and/or Naturalist Story Where Neither Are Responsible For The Relevant Problem And Both Contribute Positively To Its Satisfying Resolution And Neither Are Tricked By Anyone In The Proc

To the land of the dead! But with mummies and lots of sand! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:40:28 Christopher starts off with another tale of injury, but this was far lower stakes and more medically attended to than last year's cave story, so that's good, at least! Then, our heroes fall! But will they rise again? Gosh, let's hope so!  If you're a Letters Page Patreon supporter, join us this Friday for a live Editor's Note! If not, you'll hear it next Tuesday! Either way: it'll be a fun time!

Spooky season continues with a Very Spooky November!  Show Notes: Run Time: 1:25:31 This one gets pretty extreme! We're gonna tell a few issues worth of story, and we're going to try to not make this the longest episode, as a result. We think we did a pretty OK job at both — what do you think? Join us next week for Episode #267: Prime Wardens in the Egyptian Underworld! Get your questions in about it now!

Happy Halloween! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:50:31 This Halloween, Guise has got his hands full... full of stakes with which to stab vampires! Draculas, specifically. We tell the whole tale, revealing much, but also sneaking some non-reveals in there, as well! We also answer many questions on a few topics, including the surprisingly well-received Sk8Blayd episode! Join us next week for an episode about GloomWeaver and Æternus... which we've already recorded! But if you've got questions about the Prime Wardens in the Egyptian Underworld, send them in!

We're back! It's been too long! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:28:07 We talk about songs, do some goofs, and reveal an already revealed schedule! Upcoming schedule:  Tuesday, November 7th: Episode #266: GloomWeaver vs. Æternus Tuesday, November 14th: Episode #267: Prime Wardens in the Egyptian Underworld Tuesday, November 21st: Editor’s Note #73 Tuesday, November 28th: Episode #268: Grimm: Lord of the Harvest Amazing. Then we read real life letters, answer questions, meta questions, and meta meta questions. Including a surprise guest near the end of the episode! Stay tuned and find out! Join us next week for

We came here to talk about wolves and travel the world, and we're all out of travel time! Awwwooooo!  Show Notes: Run Time: 1:22:29 Our THIRD episode recorded in 2 days, and yet, we pull it off majestically! At least, WE think we're majestic. Don't burst our bubble. This is a very 90s story, and as such, it has a very 90s cover, complete with ridiculous hologram! Look at the great work Adam did crafting a hologram to make this cover look terrible! I mean awesome!  Now that schedule things are back to normal, we've got an Editor's Note coming up VERY SOON! In fact, that's next week's episode! And, if you're on the Letters Page Patreon, you can watch it live this coming Friday

Good morning, Sentinels fans! Rise and shine... FROM THE GRAVE! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:37:30 We're back with another thrilling tale to delight and horrify! You thought you'd seen the last of General Geist?! Well, who can say. This is one of our favorite episodes in a while. We hope you like it too! Join us next week for a HOWLING good time!

Kicking off the spooky months with a bang! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:35:45 This is the FIRST of the three episodes recorded in a row... and yet! It could be the third, based on the amount of goofy unhinged nonsense we're up to, right off the bat! Why? Who can say?  But then, we get into a story, and we try to play it cool, but we let some things slip. You'll figure it out! And if not, don't worry, we reveal all... or, at least, a lot. Time will tell, and all that! Join us next week for an (already recorded) episode all about an old Nazi foe, back from the dead!

The most extreme non-extremeverse story! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:15{6 According to Trevor, this may be our most gruesome episode since the Spite episode! Fitting. Also: sorry! This is the week of recording lots of episodes, so get your questions in now Now NOW! Join us next week for Episode #262: Robert Johnson vs the Headless Horseman!

We were live again! And we reveal so much! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:22:05 Some introductions, but then, a DOUBLE SCHEDULE?! You better believe it! Upcoming schedule:  Tuesday, October 3rd: Episode #262: Robert Johnson vs the Headless Horseman Tuesday, October 10th: Episode #263: General Geist Returns Tuesday, October 17th: Episode #264: Werewolf Haka Tuesday, October 24th: Editor’s Note #72 Tuesday, October 31st: Episode #265: Guise fights the Draculas THEN! Tuesda

Everybody's had the right to be free. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:37:40 We talk about travel, climbing, movies, small furry creatures/people... and finally we stop stalling and tell the stories you voted on! We bring up some folks, talk about people you've heard about, and then make up a few more you've never heard of! Well, at least, not in this incarnation. Join us next week for Editor's Note #71! And, if you're on the Letters Page Patreon, join us this Friday for the live recording thereof!

Let's get EXTREME again! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:21:52 OK, we get pretty silly with this one, but it's worth it! At least, we think so. I'm just now on my way back from a very successful PAX West, which I'm sure you'll hear all about in next week's episode, which is Episode #260: Creative Process: OblivAeon Refugees! Get your questions in for that one now! Talk to you then!

It's time to hunt! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:25:12 We start with some goofs about episode, dice, and more, but then we get into it! Because we gotta tell you several back stories and also, after all of this, record another episode in ONE DAY?! Is it possible? I guess you'll have to wait until next week to find out THAT outcome! For now, we're gonna talk about Alpha, and we're gonna talks about the Lords Wolfhunt! Join us next week for some XTREME Omnitron action and more! We hope you enjoy this stuff at least half as much as we do!

Back to normal! More or less! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:44:03 We've got goofs! Surprised? I feel like you shouldn't be, by this point. Still, goofs abound!  But also, a schedule: Tuesday, September 5th: Episode #259: Writers’ Room: Xtremeverse Omnitron Tuesday, September 12th: Episode #260: Creative Process: OblivAeon Refugees Tuesday, September 19th: Editor’s Note #71 Tuesday, September 26th: Episode #261: Writers’ Room: Rook City Renegades #100 (The Death of Sk8blayd) Mostly dead shows! Just preparing for the following months, which are spooky, as is traditional. We read letters! We answer questions! We create issues f

Coming at you, both LIVE and NEON! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:40:30 How could I pick from all these fantastic photos?  Look at them! The show starts off with some yelling as I throw shutter shades and snap bracelets into the audience — no one got hurt! Which is shocking, really. Then, we take more photos! A little after the 5 minute mark, we

Surprise! No episode this week, and yet we still put out a little something!  By now, I'm sure that's not at all surprising, since we do something like this everytime, but each one unique! This one shows off just how good Trevor is at stuff, and also gives you a little insight into Christopher's other podcast, the Play Greater Podcast! We're newly back from Gen Con, but the dust has HARDLY settled. Next week's episode will be the audio recording of this year's Gen Con live show, and then all you Letters Page Patreon folks can join us the following Friday for a live Editor's Note! And if you're not a Letters Page Patreon person, maybe consider becoming one today! See you soon!

We're off to Gen Con! Here's a space story! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:39:07 We're happy to be here, and we're also happy to be going to Gen Con! If you're in the Indianapolis area on this coming Sunday, August 6th, at noon, come to Stadium Room 12 and join us for a live show! However, before that, we go to space with our most oft-character-changing hero, Parse! Oh, and because Adam had to make that poster for the comic book cover anyway, here's a "clean" version of it: No episode next week, because of Gen Con! See you after the dust settles!  

The nicest fellow and the edgiest twins, but as 90s as all get out! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:35:13 We come in with no concrete ideas... and yet hit the ground running on a three part story sure to shock and amaze! Heroes! Cults! Thrills and spills! We've got 'em all, and more! We also read letters, answer questions, and leave frustrating crumbs about future content in unplanned ways, as per usual! Join us next week: Tuesday, August 1st: Episode #257 - Writers’ Room: Parse in space! And then... GEN CON!!

We're here to have a nice time! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:26:24 Christopher's been traveling! He did some livestreams with the Penny Arcade crew last week, and here's the one of them he promised to put in the show notes! Adam and Christopher are getting ready to travel to Gen Con! It's gonna be a good time! We hope as many of you as possible can attend the Gen Con Live recording of The Letters Page! There will be at least one special musical guest! Speaking of Gen Con, it messed up our regular schedule notably. Check it out! Upcoming schedule:  Tuesday, August 1st: Episode #257 - Writers’ Room: Parse in space Tuesday, August 8th: NO EPISODE BECAUSE GEN CON Tuesday, August 15th: Gen Con Live 2023! Tuesday, August 22nd: Editor’s Note #70 Tuesday, August

A new Citizen?! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:35:40 It's been a while since we've talked about Citizen Dawn related stuff. Can she survive this return to her stories?! Villainy is afoot! This story has a decent amount of musing and live creation, and I think that's nice! Do you enjoy that sort of thing? We hope so! Join us next week for Editor's Note #69, and if you're part of the Letters Page Patreon, join us this Friday for the livestream... but not at the normal time of 11 AM, no no! This Friday's livestream will be at 3:00 PM, Central time! We hope you can join us for it!

Ambuscade is gonna win! And also, a second cover! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:38:41 We try to skip the banter, and only sort of succeed. Places to be! Stories to tell! And tell, we do! Lots of Ambuscade questions. This Ansel G. Moreau guy is popular!  Join us next week for Episode #255, all about the Citizens of the Sun Civil War!

This episode is a bit shorter than average these days... but we talk about several issues of Sentinel Comics, so that makes up for it, right? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:10:51 We start off with some jokes, some banter, that sort of thing, but then we gotta get down to business! Stories to be told! The original prompt was "Greazer in La Comodora's brig". Did we answer that prompt? We certainly attempt to do so! Several times! But... did we do it!? Who can say. Want more access? Want to make decisions about the future of The Letters Page Sure you do! That sounds fun, right? Join our Patreon community and make the important choices about what we do next! Join us next

Note note note note! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:25:06 Before getting into Meta questions and Meta Meta questions, we are once again awed at how long we've been doing this, then do some goofs, and finally talk about the schedule! Upcoming schedule:  Tuesday, July 4th: Episode #254 - Writers’ Room: Ambuscade vs the Prime Wardens Tuesday, July 11th: Episode #255 - Writers’ Room: Citizens of the Sun Civil War Tuesday, July 18th: Editor’s Note #69 Tuesday, July 25th: Episode #256 - Writers’ Room: The Scholar encounters Darkstrife and Painstake Then we answer questions, both from letters and from the chat! Speaking of the chat, those who get to attend live by being Patreon supporters get to see us do an extra 10-20 minutes of stuff before the show

It's gritty time! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:30:13 We start with some goofs and chats, and then we get right into it, telling a story designed to make you feel good about the world and humanity! All is well!  A note on that brilliant cover that Adam drew and the name of the episode. During the episode, we posited just when the issue might land, and we were mostly right, but off by a little. Fortunately, our eagle-eyed listeners noticed an issue while Adam was livestreaming his drawing of that cover, which gave us the opportunity to shift the issue number slightly, clearing up any potential conflicts. So, that is accurately Issue #93 of Vol. 2 of Mystery Comics!  Join us next week for an Editor's Note, and if you're on the

Our earliest story ever! And it even has a backup story! Let's get golden! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:22:00 We do some banter, then tell some tales! We know a lot about this one, but there are still many details that can be discovered on the air, and we seek them out! Plus some unexpected twists! A shorter question section than usual, but that's OK! It happens sometimes.  If you haven't seen the cover for this episode, I highly recommend checking it out! It's the earliest cover Adam has drawn, so far. The covers are always in the show notes, and some podcast apps show them, but others don't. But they're always visible at our website!

THREE issues today? Yes! But only one cover. You'll have to listen to the cover section to find out why! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:21:01 Happy Birthday tomorrow, Adam! And we hope that everyone enjoys International Same Age Day this Thursday! This episode went by quickly, mostly because we had a lot of the pieces already, and the stuff we didn't have was just all kinds of fun. Adam helps Christopher get through his impending mental breakdown. We'll see how much longer he has in him before he's overtaken by the Void itself! We also answer a bunch of questions, as is our wont. And we talk about a cover! Really, we talk about three, but that's giving away too much.

It was a live show! Now it's just dead audio. :C Show Notes: Run Time: 1:42:59 Warning! This episode is pretty goof-heavy. Lots of goofs. You've been warned. Here's the upcoming schedule:  Tuesday, June 6th: Episode #251 - Writers’ Room: Heroic Proletariat Tuesday, June 13th: Episode #252 - Writers’ Room: Fanatic & The Organization Tuesday, June 20th: Editor’s Note #68 Tuesday, June 27th: Episode #253 - Writers’ Room: Greazer in La Comodora’s Brig We answer lots of questions on such a wide variety of topics. It gets wild. Listen and find out! Join us next week for the last episode of Adam's birth-month: Episode #250 - Writers’ Room: Scavenger Unity!

It's Ramblin' time! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:57:21 There's much to explain about this fellow still, and we get into a bunch of it! Some foes are created, many questions are answered, and there are even a few goofs! There's a lot to get through, and we manage to make it work! Whew! Join us next week — or live this Friday if you're on the Letters Page Patreon — for Editor's Note #67!

Whoa, it's been a LONG time since we talked about Tarogath! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:31:11 Adam's birth month continues with more creative processes! This episode involves as much recalling, restating, reframing, and re-explaining as it does creating, but sometimes that's what it's all about!  Join us next week for ANOTHER Creative Process, this one all about the foes of the mysterious Rambler! Because you demanded it! If you want to make demands, consider joining the Letters Page Patreon!

Christopher's voice is compromized, but he's still gonna come up with bad guys! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:32:49 It's the first week of Adam's birth month, and we're happy to be here! We're off to the races with this one — been a long time coming, and we didn't really do any prep work (other than sneaky stuff last week... but you'll have to listen to find out what that means) so you're getting all this mostly uncut! From the Golden Age to very modern, indeed! Also, there's a fun cameo in the letters section! Enjoy! Join us next week for ANOTHER Creative Process, this one about Lifeline's supporting cast!

We've got three action packed issues coming at you! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:40:57 We tell the story of the Citizen Dawn Event from Definitive Edition Sentinels of the Multiverse! Then, we go on to answer a bunch of questions, both about Citizen Dawn and about the recently revealed Grimm! Also, check out this very cool crowdfunding campaign, in German! Join us next time to kick off Adam's birth month w

A note! From Editors! For Editors? BY Editors?! Who can say! Show Notes:  Run Time: 1:43:49 There was a lot of great interaction from the chat on this one, which means that even though we recorded for over 2 hours, Trevor cut a lot of Bad Radio and this episode is a reasonable length. Whew! Upcoming schedule! Tuesday, May 2nd: Episode #247 - Creative Process: Fashion Foes Tuesday, May 9th: Episode #248 - Creative Process: Lifeline Supporting Cast Tuesday, May 16th: Episode #249 - Creative Process: Rambler Foes Tuesday, May 23rd: Editor’s Note #67 Tuesday, May 30th: Episode #250 - Writers’ Room: Scavenger Unity When we finally get into letters, we acknowledge that we were wrong to do rules rulings on the air. Whoops! We'll still take letters about rules questions, but we'll answer them with more care and oversight. Thanks! We still have lots of Rook City Renegad

Someone's about to have a bad day! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:35:25 The prompt for this episode was "a hero turned villain", and we start off by going through many instances of this in Sentinel Comics, before getting down to the business of ruining a perfectly good hero. Greater than good, in fact! It's a real shame. The Disparation campaign went well! VERY well! Thank you to everyone who joined in! If you missed it, don't worry — we'll have the preorder store thing up in the not-too-distant future where you can join in late. Become a "slacker backer", if you will. Will you? Won't you? Would you? We hope

Let's get wild... wild west! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:17:42 We start off by talking about... legislation?! Yeah, OK, weird, but look. It's scary out there. We're concerned. Then we do some math. Sorry. Then! We talk a bit about the Sentinels of the Multiverse: Disparation BackerKit campaign that is currently ongoing but about to finish up! Check it out while you can! And finally, we tell a story. Or! A few stories! Pretty cool stuff, if we do say so ourselves. And we do. Emphatically. Join us next week for an episode about a Hero turned Villain!

We finally get to talk about [redacted]! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:25:00 We've been just vibrating with excitement to finally talk about the subject of this episode... and you're just going to have to listen to find out! We hope you enjoy it, and we look forward to fielding your many questions about this newly revealed very old character! Near the end of the episode, Adam plugs a comic he's into, which I wrote about in one of the Disparation BackerKit updates last week! Read about Principles, and then check out Impossible Jones! See you next time!

Good morning, everybody! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:27:28 We do some goofs at the beginning, as per usual! You know how it goes! Let's talk about the upcoming schedule! Tuesday, April 4th: Episode #244 - Writers’ Room: A Silver Gulch Story Tuesday, April 11th: Episode #245 - Writers’ Room: A Hero turned Villain Tuesday, April 18th: Editor’s Note #66 Tuesday, April 25th: Episode #246 - Writers’ Room: Alien Artifact on Insula Primalis (which is the Citizen Dawn event from the core game) Listen to those episodes! More importantly, submit questions for those episodes! I would tell you to get questions in for next week's episode (Tuesday, March 28th: Episode #243: Writers' Room: Sentinel Comics Horror Host for Tome of the Bizarre), but we've already recorded that episode! So, questions for next month, it is! Also, while I'm issuing directives, also check out <a href= "https://w

What the heck? WHERE the heck?!?! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:32:27 We're doing some experimental cooking in today's episode! Metaphorically speaking, that is. Spite is best used sparingly, especially since he's so often, uh, expired. And Rambler is still a relatively new flavor for us, so this... soufflé... might be different from other soufflés you've had, but we're still proud of it! (OK, that metaphor got entirely away from me. I regret nothing!) Join us for stories, questions, answers, and more! And, if you're a member of The Letters Page Patreon, join us this Friday at 11 AM Central time for a live show! If you're not a member of The Letters Page Patreon, consider becoming a Contributor <a href="https://www.pat

Let's get natural! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:58:14 We have a variety of ideas for foes, and we don't even explore all the ideas we mention! That fine — this episode ended up coming in on the long side, anyway.  You asked us a bunch of questions! We answer many of them! Keep asking more! We like it. Join us next week for a Writers' Room episode about Rambler vs. Spite! Oh, and about an hour after this episode goes live, the Sentinels of the Multiverse: Disparation campaign goes live!

Let's go to space with a couple of gals who are pals! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:47:33 K.N.Y.F.E. and Sky-Scraper are a couple of fan favorites, especially due to to burgeoning "ship" between them... but where did it all start? Right here! This is that story! We tell stories from three (THREE!!) issues of Sentinel Comics, then we answer a bunch of questions! What more could you want?  If there were something more you wanted, I'll bet you could find it as part of the Letters Page Patreon! Check it out! Join us next time for an episode about foes of The Naturalist and Akash'Thriya! Who could dislike them? Time will tell!

What hath we wrought?! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:44:57 This is one of the longer Editor's Notes we've done! We just were in a strange mood, so we kinda just kept going! I drew a dragon. Adam helped. Here are the upcoming episodes! Tuesday, March 7th: Episode #241: Creative Process: The Naturalist & Akash’Thriya Foes Tuesday, March 14th: Episode #242: Writers' Room: Rambler vs. Spite Tuesday, March 21st: Editor’s Note #65 Tuesday, March 28th: Episode #243: Writers' Room: Sentinel Comics Horror Host for Tome of the Bizarre We talk about OblivAeon, food, AI, and more!  Join us next week for Episode #240: Writers' Room: The K.N.Y.F.E./Sky-Scraper arc in Cosmic Tales that's happening simultaneously with the Scholar/Count Barzakh story!

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:48:47 We start off with a discussion of a particular cookie. We really get into it. This is the Il Alimento episode, if we were just talking about cookies as ourselves instead of in some weird chef character. Sorry about that / you're welcome? Then! We finally get into this accursed topic! And we craft a story that... we're ultimately pretty happy with? And yet also follows the prompt of "make a romance the fans hate". Enjoy? At the end of the episode, we talk a bunch about a Kickstarter that we have nothing to do with — we're just into it! We highly recommend you go check out <a href= "h

Issue 200?! What a major issue! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:13:53 This episode represents a cross over from the end of January, into the month of romance, shipping, and longing glances across a crowded room. The story in this episode probably won't give you your romance story fix... but next week will be... worse?! Probably. Anyway, we cover a bunch of issues in this episode! Listen and find out! We also answer many questions on a variety of topics! As per usual! Join us next week for Episode #239: a romance the fans hated! Hoooo boy...

We're finally gonna talk about this lady! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:29:59 Baring any bear-related incidents, we're finally covering Busybody! Listen to the episode, and let us know if it was worth the wait! We think it was... but we also thought we told you about this months ago. So, you know, that's on us. To make up for our goof, we talk about a LOT of different issues of Sentinel Comics, so there's that? Hope that helps? Can you find it in your hearts to forgive us? Join us next week for Episode #238, a Writers’ Room episode about a hostile takeover of Montgomery Industries! Get your questions in now!

The first Editor's Note of a new year! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:18:33 We start off this Editor's Note by acknowleding that we spent a long time on the stream before we actually started recording this episode. Whoops? Consider joining The Letters Page Patreon to witness such events yourself! Here's the upcoming schedule: Tuesday, February 7th: Episode #238: Writers’ Room: Hostile takeover of Montgomery Industries Tuesday, February 14th: Episode #239: A romance the fans hated Tuesday, February 21st: Editor’s Note #64 Tuesday, February 28th: Episode #240: Writers' Room: The K.N.Y.F.E./Sky-Scraper arc in Cosmic Tales that's happening simultaneously with the Scholar/Count Barzakh story We also plug the other podcast that Christopher does with Paul, c

One-shot. Two letters sections. Anything could happen! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:28:16 We do only a few minutes of banter before getting into something of an overview... and then going into a few letters right away! And then back to making the issue itself. A playable issue! I mean, not playable YET, but this year! Ideally in about 6ish months... time will tell! Join us this coming Friday for a live Editor's Note! Send in your questions! Join us live on the Patreon! See you then!

Hey, folks. No real episode today, after all. Sorry for the break in schedule, but we didn't have it in us to make an RPG one-shot. I wrote a bit about it in a recent Kickstarter update. Thank you all for your patience. We'll be back on schedule next week. Speaking of which: Tuesday, January 10th: Today Tuesday, January 17th: Episode #236: Creative Process: Make an SCRPG One-Shot Tuesday, January 24th: Editor’s Note #63 Tuesday, January 31st: Episode #237: Writers’ Room: Busybody Tuesday, February 7th: Episode #238: Writers’ Room: Hostile takeover of Montgomery Industries

You didn't think we were going to go a week without posting SOMETHING, right? Welcome to 2023! We're starting this year out by pulling back the veil on 2022! Here's the stuff that Trevor cut from recent episodes in 2022. Not ALL of the stuff cut. Really, just a bunch of stuff from recent holiday episodes. And some other tidbits as well. Anyway! Gives you a feel for what Trevor has to endure to make this show happen. Enjoy? Join us next week as we get back into it!

It's the end of the year! Let's do another one next year! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:34:18 Trevor made us a bunch of fancy new music for this one! The recording was pretty unhinged, as well, so Trevor ended up cutting a LOT. Interested in hearing the sorts of things Trevor cuts? You should join the Letters Page Patreon! Patreon supporters get to watch the Editor's Notes live, and also have access to the YouTube recordings of past Editor's Notes.  Just figured I should mention that. ANYWAY! Adam coached me on how to draw a tree! And our delightful listener Churro drew this amazing and definitely canonical box art for the next expansion for Sentinels of the Multiverse: Definitive Edition: <

Choo-chooooose Sentinel Comics this holiday season! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:15:38 Happy Holiday times, everyone! We've got a story full of Christmas cheer... and trains heist! Multiple trains; one heist. You'll see! If you're on the Letters Page Patreon, join us this Thursday for a very Christopher-and-Adam-mas Editor's Note! Also, for Patreonists, voting is up for next month's topics! Go vote! See you soon!

Who could possibly have beef with Bunker? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:31:00 Do you want to start off by talking about what happens when you break the laws of reality? Because that's what's happening here! We attempt to make up some Bunker enemies! And we succeed in doing so, but only partly? More success than not, but certainly with some things that don't go the way we expected. Which is fairly normal for us, I suppose.  We also read and respond to your letters! Again, normal for us, but still notable! It's where the name of the show comes from, after all! Next week's show is a Writers' Room for a story called "Polar Express"... wait, that can't be right, can it? Seems... off. Or like we're covering ground already done by someone else. Well, regardless, we've already recorded that episode, so I hope it pans out. If you are on the <span sty

Can The Scholar survive this eldritch foe?! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:30:57 We had a lot of fun with this episode, using a foe we haven't talked very much about (other than in a couple specific episodes). Creating more for his look and feel and plots was a blast! We hope you enjoy it as much as we did! Get your questions for the upcoming Creative Process about Bunker foes and Writers' Room about Absolute Zero and Fright Train on a holiday train episodes in now! Using this form! Do it!

Birds birds birds! But are they real birds? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:15:55 We tell a story that we've known for a while, but have never shared here! We also take a variety of questions on a variety of topics! You know, like we usually do on this show!  Join us next week for a much less known story about The Scholar!

The penultimate Editor's Note of the year! Show Notes:  Run Time: 1:03:04 We're closing in on the end of the year, but we're not quite there yet! Another live show with lots of live attendees, and great questions all around! But first, the schedule: Tuesday, December 6th: Episode #233: Writers’ Room: The Scholar lets loose in a fight  Tuesday, December 13th: Episode #234: Creative Process: Bunker Foes Tuesday, December 20th: Episode #235: Writers’ Room: Polar Express: Absolute Zero and Fright Train holiday story Tuesday, December 27th: Editor’s Note #62 Join us next week for the last Spooky Months episode: Episode #232 - Writers' Room: The Mocktriarch story! Whatever could that story be about?!

Which minor villain gets scary today? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:27:31 We're halfway through the second spooky month, but this episode is less "spooky" and more "potentially exitentially terrifying". I'm sure nothing bad will come out of it. If you're a Letters Page Patreon supporter (and if you're not, maybe you should be!) join us for a live show this Friday! We look forward to seeing you there!

Scowly heroes get scowly foes! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:45:58 Christopher and Adam are back at it again! This episode is on the long side, but it's because they're brimming with ideas! Overflowing, even! And thus: this podcast. Besides making up a bunch of things, they also studiosly answer your questions! Are you satisfied with the answers they provide? We hope so! If not, send in more questions! New news! Christopher is now doing TWO podcasts! This one, every week, and once a month a podcast called the Play Greater Podcast, along with everyone's favorite Paul Bender! <a href= "https://greaterthangames.libsyn.com/play-greater-podcast-episode-1" target="_blank" rel

WHO IS THIS: Show Notes: Run Time: 1:28:57 Not much banter as we have a lot to get into here... but definitely go watch Everything Ever All At Once. Christopher saw it when it came out and Adam just watched it in the last week and so now they can't stop talking to each other about it and have to actively restrain themselves from doing so on the air. (Christopher has been waiting for MONTHS for Adam to see it, just biding his time...) And then! We get into making a thing! We do it all with no planning! And we're really pleased with how it turned out! We go through questions, including one that calls us to task in a really good way, and we're honestly excited for the work of improving and making things better. What are these notes talking about? Listen and find out!

A blast from the past! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:15:38 Adam and I have been looking forward to this story for a long time! Do we have a plan? Heck, no! But we have what we think is a cool hook. Can we deliver? You decide! Oh, this is the crowdfunding campaign that we talked about at the top of the show. It's going pretty dang well! We have fun with the story, and then we get into questions. Not a lot for this episode, unsurprisingly, but a bunch for the Greazer and Fashion episode, unsurprisingly!  Thanks for listening!

Good morning, Sentinels! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:27:06 It's another beautiful day here in Letters Page land! Adam and I hadn't recorded in a couple weeks due to the Essen Spiel convension, so we're extra punchy in this recording — we're sorry / you're welcome? Here's the upcoming schedule! Tuesday, November 1st: Episode #229: Writers’ Room: The thing that scared Dark Visionary Tuesday, November 8th: Episode #230: Creative Process: Darkstrife and Painstake Foes Tuesday, November 15th: Episode #231: Writers’ Room: A minor villain gets real scary Tuesday, November 22nd: Editor’s Note #61 Tuesday, November 29th: Episode #232: Writers’ Room: The Mocktriarch Story Send us letters! Please! Do it now! Oh, and because you asked for it, here's photographic evidence of Christopher at the Germ

A lot of new stuff in one story?! Yes, indeed! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:19:13 Adam and Christopher are back to tell all sorts of stories, but bad news: Christopher's audio is still a bit weird, as this episode was recorded on the same day as last week's episode. Not to fear! Trevor and Christopher will be troubleshooting his audio this week to try to solve this issue. Don't let audio weirdness get in the way of this story! We revisit a character we created on the air of this very show, and even create a "new" villain that we accidentally named / almost retconned in a previous episode! Lots going on! Does it make for good radio? Does it ever? You decide! Christopher is on his way back from Germany as this is posted, but the voting will be live soon for Contributors on <a href= "https://www.patreo

We're ready to have a howlin' good time! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:27:32 The spooky times have begun, and they're off with quite the start! We recorded this episode AND next week's episode on the same day, but don't hesitate to send us any questions; we can always get to them on a future episode! If you're on the Patreon, join us for a live show on Friday, October 14th!

What's happening out in space? Nothing much, right? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:48:31 Adam is sick! Christopher is injured! But, against all odds, they perseverse and end up telling a tale they're both very proud of. Does it hold up? Do you folks like it as much as we do? Gosh, we hope so! But first, we gotta tell you all about the recording schedule from now through the end of the year! With conventions, holidays, and other travel, our recording schedule is weird for most of the rest of the year. We'll make sure to share the details again in each upcoming Editor's Note, but we wanted to talk through it as well today, since it matters for question submission. Anyway, we go through the whole thing on the air. Tune in and find out! We hope you enjoy this story! It quickly became one of our favorites. 

It's another thrilling day, here on the cusp of the spooky months! We're excited for what's to come... Show Notes: Run Time: 1:52:09 Before we get into answering questions, interacting with the chat, and telling stories, we go over the monthly schedule! (That is, after goofing around a bit, as per usual.) Tuesday, October 4th: Episode #226: Writers’ Room: NightMist and Alpha vs The Court of Blood Tuesday, October 11th: Episode #227: Writers’ Room: Tome of the Bizarre Vol. 3 #11 Tuesday, October 18th: Editor’s Note #60 Tuesday, October 25th: Episode #228: Writers’ Room: Writers’ Room: The Story Christopher and Adam Mention Wanting To Tell in Editor's Note #49 (We give a mild story spoiler about each of these during the recording. Listen and find out!) Then, we get into answering questions, interacting with the chat, and telling stories! It goes pretty well, and a bit longer tha

Good morning, Avians and Arcanists! Show Notes:  Run Time: 1:33:34 What kind of foes are around for a Hero who is mostly a protégé/sidekick/team member for the comparatively short time that she's a hero, especially in relation to the very long time she spent incarcerated after her ONE big villainous outing? Well, that's what this episode is all about! Listen in and learn more! Join us next week for an Editor's Note — if you're on the Letters Page Patreon, join in the fun with us this Friday at 11 AM Central for a live recording of that Editor's Note!

The Last Temptation? EVER?! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:28:56 We start off by talking about a cat, but not a real cat! Sorry for getting sidetracked. You know us. Then we talk about Fanatic! And Apostate! And a story that you know, but we've never gotten this in-depth on. Get your questions about Harpy foes in now!

It's an older story, but it still checks out! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:31:35 We had a lot of fun telling this story! As we mention on the air, we knew many elements of this story going into it, but the stuff we DIDN'T know really bloomed over the course of the recording. We hope you enjoy it, too! Join us next week for another Writers' Room about another early story: "The Last Temptation of Helena!" 

Another thrilling Editor's Note! Now, with 100% more online collaboration! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:25:31 We're all over the place on this one, as is often the case with live shows... but even MORE so this time! We weave together letter reading, question answering, environment creating, and goof making, one after another with no discernable pattern. Does that make for good listening? Seems unlikely... but perhaps? You decide! Also, there's a schedule of upcoming episodes! They look a little something like this: Tuesday, September 6th: Episode #223: Writers’ Room: The Last Temptation of Helena Tuesday, September 13th: Episode #224: Creative Process: The Harpy foes Tuesday, September 20th: Editor’s Note #59 Tuesday, September 27th: Episode #225: Writers’ Room: Greazer and Fashion Team-Up <a href= "https://docs.google.com/document/d/1apsnk0P26Sc_Ua_VKHk4ciWwZP9b2nwXei7hSMq_tvU/edi

Paul and I did an episode live! Many of you joined us! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:37:16 Trevor did a great job not just making sure the audio worked for making this episode, but also making everything work live, AND he and his partner Jenny sang all of the musical bits LIVE! It was a delight to see him in his element. Meanwhile, Paul and Christopher goofed around on stage, but we brought a lot of you in on it, so the community aspect of this live episode was through the roof. Thank you for explaining Sentinel Comics to my cohost! If you're on the Letters Page Patreon, please tune in at 11 AM Central time this Friday for this month's Editor's Note livestream show! We're following up from the Nexus Primal

Surprise! Are you surprised? Probably not! Not that we have a lot to say here. Just wanted to hop on and chat a bit, rather than releasing nothing at all — that's no fun! We hope you all had a great Gen Con. Heck, we hope we did, too! We recorded and scheduled this minisode at the same time as last week's episode, so this message is time traveling. Like all messages, if you really think about it. Yay, time shenanigans! Join us next Friday (the 19th, not this coming Friday) for the recording of Editor's Note #58! Sure to be a grand time!

It's just another episode... or is it? (No it is not.) Show Notes: Run Time: 1:22:51 We are plagued by technical difficulties! Early on, Adam says "nothing should be changed", but that doesn't bear out. Give it a listen and see how well Trevor was able to piece together our nonsense! We're setting up Gen Con right now — if you're at the show, come visit  us in booth #1321! Next week is our regularly schedule Gen Con break, and the week after that will be the recording of the Gen Con LIVE show! After that, on Friday, August 19th, we'll be recording Editor's Note #58, which will be a follow-up to this episode, which we talk about (unexpectedly) during today's episode! If you're on The Letters Page Patreon, please tune in! This will be a community effort! We look forward to a massive creative process with all of you!

A Southwest Sentinels story? It's been so long! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:35:40 We're counting down the days until Gen Con, but we're not quite there yet! We reached out to the Letters Page Patreon contributors for some help narrowing down this topic, and we got a story we might not have told otherwise, which was a blast! We hope you enjoy it as much as we did! Get your questions in now about Nexus Primalus, as we're creatively processing that strange place this coming Friday for next week's episode!

Another successful live show in the bag! Here's the audio. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:16:37 Too much time spent on banter last time!  Here's the upcoming schedule: Tuesday, August 2nd: Episode #221: Creative Process: Nexus Primalus Tuesday, August 9th: No Episode! We’re at Gen Con! Tuesday, August 16th: Gen Con Live 2022 Tuesday, August 23rd: Editor’s Note #58 Tuesday, August 30th: Episode #222: Writers’ Room: Aminia Twain saves the Freedom Five We start off by answering questions about OblivAeon... and then it spirals downward continues fruitfully and interestingly from there! Join us next week for Episode #220: Writers' Room: A minor villain gets a major triumph! Who can it be?! Time will tell...

Villains for such a friendly fellow? How can it be?! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:02:47 We start off with a real life tale of peril! If you don't want to hear about me and some of my friends in real life danger, I recommend skipping ahead to around the 35 minute mark. That said, it's a helluva story! And everyone survives! Uh, spoilers, I guess. Then, we make some villains! We're all over the place on this one, and we're thrilled with the things we came up with. A real cornucopia of evil.  Join us next week for an Editor's Note, or, if you're on the Letters Page Patreon, join us this Friday for the live recording of that Editor's Note!

It's pirate time! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:48:10 We've got quite the story for you today, and it's all happening live (except for the fact that I did a bunch of middle of the night thinking about the story before we recorded, as discussed on the air). We tell more than just an issue or two of story in today's episode —  we range far and wide, but still manage to go deep on more than just today's cover issue! We've been on a creative roll, and you get to reap the benefits! Join us next time for a Creative Process episode all about Scholar Villains! Get your questions in now!

Time to get BOLD! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:38:15 Whew, this is a big one! We've been thinking about this story internally for a while, and we're excited to get to share it with all of you! We hope you enjoy it! Special thanks today to Greater Than Games employees SaRae Henderson and Twuana Price for their helpful advice and consideration on the history and depiction of this story. Join us next week, when we tell a La Capitan story! 

Another episode recorded at an odd time! Show Notes:  Run Time: 1:11:19 Since we recorded this episode about a week early, we didn't know at the time of recording what the outcome of the voting would be, but we know now! So, here we go: Upcoming schedule: Tuesday, July 5th: Episode #218: Writers' Room: La Capitan & the Sliver of Creation Tuesday, July 12th: Episode #219: Creative Process: Scholar Villains Tuesday, July 19st: Editor’s Note #57  Tuesday, July 26th: Episode #220: Writers' Room: A mi

Ve vant to tell you stories! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:44:59 Vampires! A whole world of them?! You betcha! We do some goofs, and then get down to crafting a lot of story!  Next week is this month's Editor's Note, but we already recorded it! But we'll have a whole new slate of episodes for next month coming soon!

Time for a bit of passionate heroics! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:26:14 We're into the month of June! Disparation all month! Will it wear out its welcome? Who can say? Time will tell! First, we get into the heady topic of "chip clips" and then solve them. Also, we tackle fries. Is this the return of the food episode? Listen and find out! This coming Friday, we're recording an episode about "Vampire World". Get your questions in before the sun rises and we all turn to dust!

We'll paint you a story! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:23:10 It's Adam's birthday! Today is the day! As a result — or, actually, because you demanded it — we tell a frankly silly story that ends up doing some interesting things. And also we read your letters! This was the first of two episodes recorded in one day, as I'm now in the UK for a week and a half for UK Games Expo! (If you'll be at the show, come hang out with us in Booth #1-852!) But, was this the BEST episode we recorded today? You'll just have to find out next week!

A irregularly recorded but regularly released Editor's Note! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:34:34 We talk about many things, but first, the schedule! Upcoming schedule: Tuesday, June 7th: Episode #215: Writers' Room — Disparation: Inversiverse Galactra Tuesday, June 14th: Episode #216: Writers' Room — Disparation: Vampire World Tuesday, June 21st: Editor’s Note #56 Tuesday, June 28th: Episode #217: Writers' Room — Disparation: Reinventing a Classic Sentinel Comics Hero Questions from all over and about all things! A lot related to Sentinel Comics: the Roleplaying Game, including a request to get a list of the official SCRPG Livestreams that we did here at GTG HQ, so here they are: Season 1 <a href= "https://www.youtube

A spooky tale?! From the Sentinels Universe?! NOT IN NOVEMBER?! Huge if true. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:38:33 We hit the ground running at speeds unlike any we have ever reached! And yet, we STILL spend a chunk of time on the story and also read and answer a variety of letters! If you're listening to this right when it comes out and you're a Letters Page Patreon subscriber, you can join us live for this month's Editor's Note RIGHT NOW! Come join in! Also, join us next week for Episode #214: Writers' Room: Setback & Unity team-up! Get your questions in now!

Time for a trio team-up! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:23:28 This one was a tough story to make work! We go down a lot of false trails before fighting out how we want to make this happen. They can't all be easy! We hope you enjoy this peek behind the curtain, seeing what's it's like when we're struggling. All part of the process! Get your Absolute Zero and Muerto questions in now! We're recording on Wednesday this week (tomorrow!) instead of Friday, and recording TUESDAY of next week! That's right! The live show next week is being recorded only a couple hours after next week's episode goes live! Join us!

Let's get mechanical! Show Notes:  Run Time: 1:05:05 We start in the semantic weeds, right off the bat! And that's what you've got to look forward to for this episode! OK, OK, though the first few letters are pretty mechanically in-depth, we DO get into the more "Hows" and "Whys" of how the mechanics and the thematics match up. It's not all just "how do these cards interact" questions!  Join us next week when we kick off the rest of this joyous Adam's birth month with a Team-Up episode with Episode #212: a Writers' Room episode about Young Legacy, Unity, and The Harpy!

A new story! A new team of heroes face some new villains! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:49:52 We start in rare, ridiculous form. And then it gets even more ridiculous. But then! Finally! We start telling stories! And we tell several, to make up for all the ridiculousness.  A lot of the content in today's episode references the newest Sentinel Comics RPG book: The Guise Book! You can get the physical book from our webstore or from your friendly local gaming store, or get just <span st

It's almost May! But first: the rest of April! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:19:21 Another fun show with a bunch of great comments and questions from our live chat!  Here's the upcoming schedule: Tuesday, May 3rd: Episode #211: Creative Process: Mechanics of Definitive Edition Tuesday, May 10th: Episode #212: Writers' Room: Harpy, Young Legacy, Unity team-up Tuesday, May 17th: Episode #213: Writers' Room: Absolute Zero and Muerto team-up Tuesday, May 24th: Editor’s Note #55 (recorded Tuesday, May 17th, at Noon, Central) Tuesday, May 31st: Episode #214: Writers' Room: Setback & Unity team-up Join us in May for many team-ups in celebration of Adam's birthmonth! Next week, we're doing a Neighborhood Watch episode! Get your questions in now!

Robots... in time?! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:20:38 Sure, we have all manner of banter up top, but then we get into a lot of details, lore, retcons, corrections, stories, and THREE COMIC BOOKS?! An entire 3 issue arc? YOU BET! Spoilers, I guess. Anyway, enjoy! Join us next time for a live Editor's Note!

Let's take this podcast straight to hell! Er, to heck! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:25:36 We start off with some April Fools "pranks"? We recorded this episode on April 1st, so it seemed only right. But! We don't get too hung up on it, instead defaulting to our usual banter. And then! We make a couple of characters! Lots of new stuff here, so no spoilers in these notes — gotta listen to find out!  Join us next week for Episode #209: Writer's Room: An Omnitron-X story!

Who wouldn't like Sky-Scraper?! These people. That's who. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:21:54 We start with a bit of banter, especially about Adam's frankly immature chickens. We talk about a fair number of villains — some you know about, some you want to know more about, some you've never heard of! Also, the Rook City Renegades Kickstarter is still going on for a couple more days! Don't miss it!

An Editor's Note! Recorded on a Saturday?! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:23:41 Christopher just got back from a show, but recording still must happen! There's a bunch of weirdness at the start with reading names from the Discord chat that have "honh honh honh" in them. It's a real inside cricket joke. And then people share their pet pictures, which we talk about — fantastic radio, I tell you.  Upcoming episodes! Tuesday, April 5th: Episode #208: Creative Process: Æternus Connected Hero Tuesday, April 12th: Episode #209: Writer's Room: An Omnitron-X story Tuesday, April 19th: Editor’s Note #54 Tuesday, April 26th: Episode #210: Writer's Room: Neighborhood Watch Don't forget, the Rook City Renegades Kickstarter is still live! <span sty

Let's tell a Definitive story! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:29:39 Adam and I have been excited to tell this story for a while, and now we finally get to do so! And we go ever further! Lots of good stuff in this one. Even more Definitive Editions letters today, so more As to your Qs! This coming episode is an Editor's Note, which means we have a live show between now and then. Normally, we record on Friday at 11 AM, but I'm currently in Reno for a tabletop industry trade show, so instead we're going live on Saturday morning at 11 AM! If you're on the Letters Page Patreon, join us then! Thanks for listening, everyone! Don't forget to check out the <a href= "https://www.kick

Who is in the magic lady's life? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:31:18 We start off with a bit of talk about the ongoing Kickstarter, and then we get into NightMist's friends/associates/allies! We talk about a bunch of people — many you've heard of, and several you haven't! We also get a number of questions both about this episode stuff and previous episodes! You know how this goes. Thanks for listening! Catch you next time!

The Definitive Edition of Sentinels of the Multiverse! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:52:25 The game is out! You have it in hand! (Or, if you don't, you COULD! Go get it!) Let's talk about it! This is a long episode, and it's mostly letters... from you! Which is what Christopher and Adam read! That's, like, what we do. Also, speaking of Definitive Edition: the first expansion for Sentinels of the Multiverse Definitive Edition is live as of 10 AM Central today! <span style= "text-decoration: underline

This is a weird one... but we really enjoyed it! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:20:42 Say goodbye to the "Month of Love" with this wild take on the topic! Will this be a throwaway story? Or will it be the beginning of something dreadful?! Or!!! Is it just really silly? Who can say?! Sorry, I had a whole bushel of ?s and !s that were about to go bad, so I wanted to use them up. Anyway, listen and learn! We had a great time, and I think we told a pretty compelling tale in the process. Catch you next time for Episode #204: Sentinels of the Multiverse: Definitive Edition! (And the launch of the Rook City Renegades Kickstarter?!)

More shipping? You betcha! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:36:11 Happy Valentines, Galentines, and Palentines Day, everyone! First thing first — the upcoming schedule: Tuesday, March 1st: Episode 204: Sentinels of the Multiverse: Definitive Edition! Tuesday, March 8th: Episode 205: Creative Process: NightMist Supporting Cast Tuesday, March 15th: Episode 206: Writers' Room: Akash’Mecha Tuesday, March 22nd: Editor’s Note #53 Tuesday, March 29th: Episode 207: Creative Process: Sky-Scraper Foes And then! We get into all sorts of topics, including: Shipping letters More shipping letters Letters about shipping Questions in the Discord about shipping And more (shipping questions)! Join us next time, in which we record the last of the shipping related letters for this month: a concerning episode about Wager Master and...

Are you ready for a wedding?! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:07:11 The long-awaited marriage of Meredith Stinson and Dana Bertrand! About time! We also take some questions on the topic, as well as some letters that go a bit further afield. All good stuff, though! A fun episode, by our estimation. Next week is this month's Editor's Note, which will be a Shipping follow-up! Get your questions in now!  

Oh, hey there. Welcome. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:43:01 Did you like our new intro music? I sure did! It's amazing.  What is this episode all about? Your shipping letters! There are a lot of them. So many that we didn't get through all of them. Spoilers, I guess. Point is, this month's Editor's Note will involve MORE Shipping letters! We have so many left in the hopper still. Next week's episode is Tachyon's wedding! Get your questions in now!

Ready to feel good?! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:11:15 Adam is back! He's recovering well! Whew. For this episode, we have been ordered to make you feel good! Unequivocally! We do our best! This "show notes" thing is ENTIRELY different now, so I really hope I've posted the episode correctly. If you're a Patreon person, ping me on Discord and let me know how this stuff shows up. Join us next week for the first episode in February on the first day of the month: The Return of the Shipping Episode! Get your questions in now!   (Secret Lads forever!)

A Publisher's Note?! What is happening?! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:11:46 Adam is incapacitated, so Paul stepped in and we talked about a lot of things! Unfortunately, Paul's microphone is very bad, so the audio is not great. We'll do better next time! Here's the upcoming schedule! Tuesday, February 1st: Episode #201 - Return of the Shipping Episode Tuesday, February 8th: Episode #202 - Writers' Room: Meredith and Dana Wedding Issue Tuesday, February 15th: Editor’s Note #52 Tuesday, February 22nd: Episode #203 - Writers' Room: Wager Master and Madame Mittermeier’s forbidden romance We also take a bunch of questions, including many lingering Paul questions, and even a couple of game shows! Join us next time for — hopefully — Episode 200: a feel-good story, and the return of Adam! Fingers crossed

Oh no, is Guise in trouble?!?! Run Time: Show Notes: 1:48:42 It's a new year! We made it to 2022, everyone! Shocking, we know. Christopher and Adam are surprised by the weather, but not to worry — it's cold again now. But it wasn't for a little while! Before we get into it, we do a bit of mild campaigning for one particular episode we'd love to record next month. So, if you're a supporter of our Patreon, go vote! Then, we create a story! We had some intention from the start, but no real plans... until they unfold organically! Just like these often go, but with more Guise than usual! Speaking of the Patreon, if you're on there, join us this Friday for

Welcome to 2022! New year — new version (of Sentinels of the Multiverse) By this point, Sentinels of the Multiverse: Definitive Edition has been delivered to many of you, and it's on the way to the rest of you as we speak! We've been sitting on a number of questions about Definitive Edition, and there are still more of them that we're not getting to today — for reasons we discuss in this very mini-sode — but we take on a few of them now, with promises to talk about more stuff in the future! Let's make this year the best one yet!

What's all this then? This mini-episode is in reaction to this very event. Will this change who we are as people? One can hope! Happy holidays, everyone! This last year was momentous for a lot of reasons, but we had a great time making Letters Page episodes for all of you, and we're looking forward to even more in the coming year! Thanks for being part of our show!

Last Editor's Note of the year!  Show Notes: Run Time: 59:16 We start with some goofs and some holiday singing, and then we get to apologies and corrections! We had been previously calling someone by the wrong name — his actual name is "Trickline the Despoiler", not "Tripline". Whoops. Also, the bar name is "The Wretched Hive", not "Scum and Villainy". You all know this. We just make mistakes a lot? Sorry! What's coming up for the first month of the new year? Tuesday, January 4th: Start of year break! Tuesday, January 11th: Episode #199 - Writers' Room: Guise and Scholar in SPACE! Tuesday, January 18th: Editor’s Note #52 Tuesday, January 25th: Episode #200 - Writers' Room: An Unequivocally Feel-Good Issue Can we pull it off? Time will tell! This episode, we talk about: OblivAeon Singular Entities People from other realities Underw

Let's get festive! Show Notes:  Run Time: 1:21:02 We don't have a specific plan, so we start telling stories, and this leads to giving away more than we originally intended. No worries! That's what we're here to do! This episode ends up almost being a series of lightning round Writers' Rooms!  If you're on the Letters Page Patreon, join us this Friday for a live Editor's Note, which will be the last episode of the year! We hope to see you there!

Big episode about bigger things! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:35:56 We start with some big GTG news — we're pretty excited! Lots of new things to look forward to. Then, we process Singular Entities, creatively. (The Creative Process continues a bit in the questions, as well.) The final question references this glorious art: Thanks for listening! Join us next time for some Holiday Plots!

Enough of all this Fanatic on Fanatic violence! Show Notes Run Time: 1:19:10 We say farewell to the spooky months with a tale full of ghosts,  mistaken identities, and hero vs. hero action! Join us next week for a Creative Process episode about Singular Entities!

Our fiftieth Editor's Note! Amazing! Show Notes:  Run Time: 1:11:52 To mark this momentous occasion, Trevor is doing something new! Apparently, there's a thing you can do with podcasts where you set "chapters"? With info and stuff, and you can jump to them or something? I'm not sure how all this works — I don't even know if it did work! But we're shooting for it! Time will tell! Here's the upcoming schedule: Tuesday, December 7th: Episode #197 - Creative Process: Singular Entities Tuesday, December 14th: Episode #198 - Creative Process: Villainous Holiday Plots Tuesday, December 21st: Editor’s Note #51 Tuesday, December 28th: End of year break! Listen in for questions about: OblivAeon, I guess Voss The Last Infinity The Metaverse Jean-Marc & Trevor Definitive Edition Limbs and more! Join

Let's make some under/outer/extra/other/etc.worlds! Show Notes:  Run Time: 1:05:32 At the top, we tease a piece of mail, but Adam rightly notes that we should open it in the Letters section, as it is a letter.  Then, we dig into a few places, none of which are the sorts of places we should visit! Whoops! Probably nothing bad will come of that... OK, at the end of the Letters section, we open THIS! [Spoilers to follow...] We're very honored to have gotten this REAL mail! Thanks, Tres! Join us next week for Editor's Note #50??!??!?! Can that be right? We've been in this format for 50 months? Sheeeeesh!

It's SCARY how well this episode went! Even though we recorded it much later than we usually do! And look at how cool this cover turned out! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:36:39 After some goofs and talking about Trevor, we get into the overview, in which we do a bunch of work! Well, first, an interview? (Trevor wanted me to tell you that the musical excerpt in today's episode is Jean-Joseph Mouret's Rondeau, as performed by Monsieur Croche, so you know.) Then a bit of a retcon. And then some new stuff! And all kinds of things. Far more than a single issue worth of story. Exciting times! Then, after a lot of story building and storytelling, we take some Mr. Jitters questions, some Adhesivist questions, and a few grab-bag questions! Join us next time for a Creative Process abou

Oh no, Mr. Fixer! What now?! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:28:21 We start with barely a concept on this one and just build as we go. Pretty pleased with how it went, but I don't think we'd have called how it turned out from the beginning! We have some Mr. Fixer questions today, as well as a few letters about various Discord/Disparation stuff. Thought provoking stuff! We do our best to provide satisfactory answers. Do we succeed? You tell me! Join us next week for a Mr. Jitters story! Make a run for the border!

We got a live one here! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:06:39 We had fun and a good deal of audience interaction with this one! Always a good time. Here's the upcoming schedule: Tuesday, November 2nd: Episode #193 - Writers' Room: Disparation: Oni Mr. Fixer Tuesday, November 9th: Episode #194 - Writers' Room: A Mr. Jitters story Tuesday, November 16th: Episode #195 - Creative Process: Underworlds — hells, demon dimensions, and more! Tuesday, November 23rd: Editor’s Note #50 Tuesday, November 30th: Episode #196 - Writers' Room: Haunted Fanatic In this Editor's Note, we talk about a bunch of things, including: A birthday OblivAeon Maths Murders Bros Ages Democracy And more! Join us next time for a Disparation episode about Mr. Fixer and something something Oni something?!

The newest, youngest, RPGest team! And a spooooky adventure! Show Notes:  Run Time: 1:36:31 Gotta say, we had a lot of fun delving into a lighter fare (but still spooky and frankly pretty dark) story with our Daybreak friends! But yeah, we managed to make it weird, even still. This Friday is an Editor's Note! Join us live if you're part of the Letters Page Patreon! We hope to "see" you all there for a Very Halloween Editor's Note!

Something wicked (awesome) this way comes! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:27:09 Adam and I recorded TWO episodes on the same day, and they're both great! You'll only get to hear one of them today — you'll have to wait a week to hear the other. Don't worry! The wait will be worth it. Lots happens in this episode, including going into WAY more issues than just the one pictured above. Why? What about? Involving WHOM?! I mean, this episode was promised to involve both witches and at least ONE werewolf, and it does! But what else? Well, you'll just have to listen and find out! Join us next time, when we tell a Daybreak Halloween story! But don't send in letters for that one — it's already recorded! Instead, send in letters for the following Editor's Note, and the episode after that one

Let the spookiness commence! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:13:48 We start off by talking about a different comic: Disparation Vol. 1 #21... but that's not the issue for today's Writers' Room! Listen and find out! At the end of the episode, we mention that this week — on Friday, October 8th — we'll be recording the next TWO episodes! So, get your questions for the "Witches and Werewolves: Harpy and Alpha" and "Daybreak Halloween Special" Writers' Room episodes in now!

We're back to regular time! Sort of! Don't worry about it! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:22:58 We're about to get a couple months of spooky! Here's the upcoming schedule for October AND November! Tuesday, October 5th: Episode #190 - Writers' Room: Post Oracle of Discord Tuesday, October 12th: Episode #191 - Writers' Room: Witches and Werewolves: Harpy and Alpha Tuesday, October 19th: Episode #192 - Writers' Room: Daybreak Halloween Special Tuesday, October 26th: Editor’s Note #49 Tuesday, November 2nd: Episode #193 - Writers' Room: Disparation: Oni Mr. Fixer Tuesday, November 9th: Episode #194 - Writers' Room: A Mr. Jitters story Tuesday, November 16th: Episode #195 - Creative Process: Underworlds — hells, demon dimensions, and more! Tuesday, November 23rd: Editor’s Note #50 Tuesday, November 30th: Episode #196 - Writers' Room: Haunted Fanatic W

What's this? Something unexpected?!  No, not really. We mentioned it at the end of last week's episode: I was at Gen Con last week for meetings and such, but GTG wasn't there as a company, so no Gen Con Live this year. Hopefully next year! Oh, and I guess there's a letters section? I didn't know anything about this in advance. Well, we'll just see what happens. Join us next week (or this Friday if you're a Letters Page Patreon supporter) for a regular-style-but-a-week-late Editor's Note, in which we'll also unveil the rest of the schedule for October AND November! Exciting! Spoooooky!

Glue pun! Show Notes:  Run Time: 1:17:44 There is less history to this character than many, but that doesn't stop us! If anything, we're excited to build him out! Especially with all the great folks that have given to much to The Adhesivist. Not sure what I'm talking about here? Listen and find out! At the end of the episode, we talk about how the schedule is about to get weird: rather than the regularly scheduled Editor's Note #48, we'll have a interlude-type-thing, just for fun. Then, the NEXT week will be the Editor's Note, followed by Episode #189, though now off by a week. Which is OK! Everything will be fine! The Patreon supporters are already hard at work, voting for the episodes they want to hear in October AND November! If you're on the Letters Page Patreon, go vote now! And, if you're no

The life of a man who has touched the lives of many. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:22:54 Adam and I are excited to finally work through this limited series! It's got a lot of creative folks on it, and it's fun for us to work with an ensemble creative cast. We hope you enjoy listening in! After about 44 minutes of story telling, we get into your questions! On a variety of topics! Not so much this episode, but that's not a huge deal.  Join us next week for a Creative Process episode we're referring to as "A Sticky Subject" ...it's all about Adhesivist!

The kids are alright! Or are they? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:27:25 What sort of mess are these two going to get themselves into? And how will they get out of it? You'll just have to listen and find out! Thank you all for supporting our ENNIES Awards nominations with your votes! We really appreciate it! Join us next time for a Writers' Room about an issue of Engine Block Blues!

This one has both Dave Chalker AND Jennifer Closson! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:36:05 First things first: this is now an ENNIE Award nominated podcast?! That's amazing! Read more here, and then GO VOTE! Then, we talk about Dave's family fun sharktacular cards and robots game, Get Bit! Now on Kickstarter! Go check it out! Then, we finally talk about the upcoming schedule:<

Finally, you get to see the Soothsayer himself, and on a comic cover, at that! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:30:54 So, we do some goofs, but then the story came together... so quickly? Whoops? It's OK — we spend extra time in the question section, as a result! A very important thing happened last week while we were recording this episode! We here at Greater Than Games were nominated for several ENNIES! Learn more in this blog post I made yesterday. Two big things: this podcast was one of the nominations, so this is now an Ennie Award Nominated podcast! Can we win an Ennie? That's up to YOU! Voting runs Wednesday, August 18th through the 27th!

Greetings from the distant past! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:33:34 What ancient words you hear now... can this hoary old record still hope to have any relevance in this new world of today? Well, let's see! After some goofs (or are they seriouses?!), we go into making up villains for our favorite gun-toting cyclops! (I mean, first we do on-topic goofs, because, how could we not?) After about an hour of villain creation, we take your questions! What do we do with them? Nothing responsible! Join us next time for a team-up Writers' Room between your favorite misty magician and your also favorite grumpy arcane academic!

La Comodora and Chrono-Ranger visit the Extremeverse! Or is it the Xtremeverse? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:36:42 Adam's got house problems, but that's not going to stop us from getting EXTREME! But first! Some spelling disputes. Then, we tell a whole set of stories! More than we expected! We bounce between a few different issues. All over the top. We hope you enjoy them. And then the questions ALSO get XTREME! Trevor does a great job with the episode, as usual.  Join us next week for a Creative Process episode about Expatriette Foes! However, we're recording that episode the same day this episode comes out, in the evening, so if you don't have letters in within the first few hours after this episode is posted, then instead get us letters about the next episode after that: Writers' Ro

Biomancer is back, but with a more explained plan than ever before! Still not THAT much explanation, though. It's still Biomancer. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:29:54 We're excited to bring you another Biomancer story. He's very much a "sometimes food", but we enjoy it when it comes up. We do some goofs, figure out where/when in the history of Sentinel Comics this issue lands, and tell the various parts of this story, all of which takes just over half an hour! We're getting pretty good at this.  Then, we get into a ton of mostly-Biomancer focused questions. Go figure that such an enigmatic figure would raise so many questions. Join us next week for a Disparation Writers' Room all about La Comodora in the Extremeverse! <a href= "https://forms.gle/RUpqW5w6imfBCEv6A" target="_blank" rel

Let's get into SCRPG questions! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:36:29 Christopher and Adam are joined by Dave Chalker and Chris Burton! They answer So Many Questions about the Sentinel Comics RPG and more! Here's the upcoming schedule:  Tuesday, August 3rd: Episode #184 - Writers' Room: Disparation: La Comodora in the Extremeverse Tuesday, August 10th: Episode #185 - Creative Process: Expatriette Foes Tuesday, August 17th: Episode #186 - Writers' Room: NightMist & Soothsayer Carmichael Team-Up Tuesday, August 24th: Bullpen #5 Tuesday, August 31st: Episode #187 - Writers' Room: Setback & Harpy Team-Up --- See you next time!    

Time for a quick switcheroo! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:25:22 Let's swap some bodies! Just who will get swapped, and to what end? The cover above gives at least a little of it away, but not enough to ruin the story... not by a long shot!  After about 38 minutes of storytelling (sprinkled liberally with goofs), we get to your questions, which range far and wide! High and low! Inside and outside! Cats and dogs, living together!  Join us next Tuesday, July 20th, for Bullpen #4! OR! If you're on the Letters Page Patreon, join us live on Friday, July 16th! Come talk to Dave! And a special guest! And Adam, but with Dave's voice! And more!

The fireworks are still going off here! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:36:41 We do some small talk, and even a bit of medium talk, and then we get into the story!  By "story" I mean, slogging through coming up with versions of the heroes for the tale. Once we've got those, everything else goes smoothly. That's how it goes! Lots of questions on a variety of topics, which we get into at around the 51 minute mark. Join us next time, where we tell a Body Swap story!

Let's talk about the people who get revamped into Catastrophe and Verge in the Vertex timeline! (Now there's an "inside baseball" statement!) Show Notes: Run Time: 1:38:34 We're flying blind for this one! Rather than coming at it with an idea of where we're going, we just knew that we needed to fill some story gaps. And we did it! Plus, came up with some content that you'll see in the future... Thanks for joining us! Get your questions in for our historic look at a hero team, with Episode #181 - Writers’ Room: Disparation: Freedom Four 1776!

It's that time again! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:13:03 More episodes next month? Yes, indeed! Upcoming schedule: Tuesday, July 6th: Episode #181 - Writers’ Room: Disparation: Freedom Four 1776 Tuesday, July 13th: Episode #182 - Writers’ Room: A Body Swap Story Tuesday, July 20th: Bullpen #4 Tuesday, July 27th: Episode #183 - Writers’ Room: Clone-Ranger vs CON You might note that next month brings us another Bullpen! We'll be talking about some SCRPG stuff then, so Dave will be on the show once again, as will a special guest! Who will it be? Hopefully not Guise! This episode, we talk about: Lingering OblivAeon questions NightMist Portal Fiends Biomancer Names Magic creatures Magic users Both Neither and more! We'll catch you...   ...next time!

Just what IS Visionary's deal, anyway? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:18:02 We talk about more than just one issue! We have lots of issues, in fact! But we only full Writers' Room one issue, which is the cover you see above here. But just what is that story? You'll have to listen to find out! After a little over half an hour of storytelling (this one went surprisingly quickly!), we get into your questions. We even get into some letters about unrelated alternate reality stuff — seems like there's a lot of lingering interest there! Thanks for listening, everyone! If you're a Contributor on our Patreon, go vote now for what we're talking about next month! And join us live this Frida

What sort of friend-persons does our favorite very tall / very tiny alien have? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:46:36 We talk about people in Sky-Scraper's life! It gets meandery. Go figure! After just under an hour of nonsense and storytelling — in equal measure — we read your letters to you, and we talk not just about Sky-Scraper, but also get to the lingering letters about xxtz'Hulissh and Atlantean-related stuff. Join us next week for Episode #179 - Writers' Room: Disparation: Visionary’s origin timeline. We'll talk about both before she leaves and after she's gone, but which one will we do a full issue on? Who can say? Get your questions in now!

It's International, Intergalactic, Mega-Meta-Multiversal Same-Age-Day! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:26:56 What a strange and different episode we're having today! Do we have a plan? Only slightly! We spend some retrospective time, and then move on to a variety of letters of many different sorts! Join us next time for Episode #178 - Creative Process: Sky-Scraper Supporting Cast! Get your questions in now!

We talk about Legacy stuff! Again! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:54:22 We falter our way through banter, eager to get to it! And then we go long! Sorry about the comparatively longer show — Legacy just brings that out of us! Plus, at least one major reveal that connects the dots on some things you didn't know... Join us next week for our first Same Age Day Show! What will we talk about? Time will tell! One week's time, in fact!

Let's talk about a bunch of different things! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:23:08 We start by talking about teeth! Sorry to anyone who doesn't want to hear about teeth. Here's the upcoming schedule! Tuesday, June 1st: Same-Age-Day-Sode! Tuesday, June 8th: Episode #178 - Creative Process: Sky-Scraper Supporting Cast Tuesday, June 15th: Episode #179 - Writers' Room: Disparation: Visionary’s origin timeline (before and after) Tuesday, June 22nd: Editor’s Note #47 -OR- Bullpen #4. Hard to say which. Tuesday, June 29th: Episode #180 - Creative Process: Grace and Owen Charles in the RPG era This Editor's Note, we talk about a bunch of topics, including: OblivAeon Scions Power Kickstarter Definitive Edition Absolute Zero Names Gifts and more! Catch you next week for Episode #177 - Cr

Two issues?! In this economy? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:33:36 Adam and I are in rare form! We're always in rare form, though — not fully cooked. Half baked, if you will.  We tell a hero/villain team-up story, as requested. But it takes us more issues than we thought! You get twice as many issues (and twice as many team-ups) as anticipated! Then, a variety of letters on a series of topics. You know, like we do. But different! Or, at least, unique.  Next week is an Editor's Note, so if you're a contributor to the Letters Page Patreon</sp

Bark at the moon! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:35:52 We start off by talking about Adam's sleep schedule, which is appropriate as this is the first episode of Adam's Birth Month! Thrilling times! Then, we get to all the wolfs. We tell you more about a wolf you know, and a lot about a wolf you don't know yet! Where have these wolves been hiding all this time?! At around the 45 minute mark, we get into questions! More wolf stuff there, but also some non-wolf stuff! Join us next week for a Hero/Villain Team-Up Story! Get your questions in for that story now!

Welp, guess we'll go mad! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:18:38 It's been so long since we've done an episode like this! How do they even work? We end up doing a bit of "Creative Process" and "Writers' Room" type stuff in the Overview section, as that's how we work best, apparently. As a result, you get lots of backstory, some points of interest, and a cool story or two! And all within about half an hour! Hope that answers all your questions on xxtz'Hulissh! We certainly don't expect much in the way of follow-up episodes to this one... (that is yet another one of our lies, in case you weren't sure). At around the 28 minute mark, we get to your questions, which surely answer any and every question you could possibly have about xxtz'Hulissh now. Whew! Glad we got that covered. Next week's episode is the long-awaited werewolf sto

That's right! We actually did it! Welcome to the long-awaited and oft-delayed Editor's Note #45!! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:38:35 How do we even do this type of episode? We're not sure, so we just kinda wing it. That said, we get to all the stuff. I think. Pretty sure. Next month is the month of May, which — as everyone knows — is Adam's birth month! Celebrations will be occurring everywhere, and both participation and enjoyment are mandatory! In the episode, Adam attempts to explain the joy of birthdays to Christopher for several minutes. Does it land? You decide, listeners! Anyway, here's the upcoming schedule: Tuesday, May 4th: Episode #175 - Creative Process: Werewolf Stories Tuesday, May 11th: Episode #176 - Writers’ Room: Hero/Villain Team-Up Tuesday, May 18th: Editor’s Note #46 (TWO IN A ROW?!?!) Tuesday, May 25th: Episode #177 - Creative Process: Young Legacy Foes <p

A return to Disparation! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:34:54 It's been a long time since we did a Disparation episode, and man, it feels good to be back at it! In the words of our very own Trevor: Whoa, slow down there, Trevor! Praise of that caliber is likely to go to our heads! But before we can get into that, we've gotta goof around on a variety of topics, of course. But only for about 7 minutes! Then, we get into a bunch of backstory, some temporal positioning, and some issue number questing. And then! A story! A story in which motivations run deeper than we even initially realized!  At just after the 48 minute mark, we get to your many questions. An

Time for a nice tall frosty one! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:33:19 We do some marketing goofs, at least partially inspired by Sentinels of the Multiverse: Definitive Edition currently on Kickstarter! But then! We get into telling the story of the issue, which we actually do in a very non-sequential/chronological way! The actual order of the stories in the issue is clear and unpackable, but we get a bit obtuse about it. But that ends up creating some moments that we're particularly proud of. Anyway, enjoy! After all that storytelling, we get into your q

I promise that there will be at least one coonskin cap in this episode. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:46:46 Our timing was off! At the start of the episode, we claimed that the Kickstarter was already live, but we're backwards: the Kickstarter goes live one hour after this episode starts. So, if you started listening to this episode the moment it came out, you'd want to pause halfway through to go check out that Kickstarter! We'll add a link to the Kickstarter to the show notes below when it goes live. Adam and I have been looking forward to digging into these tales for a while, so we went into this one with a list of people we wanted to talk about, but not a lot of planning. On purpose! We wanted this creative process to be pretty transparent on the "process" side of things. Ended up with at least a couple very solid character ideas out of this, plus a slew of stories, especially from the earlier ages of Sentinel Comics. <p

Paul is back! Back again! Paul is back, Paul is back, Paul is back! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:18:51 We talk a lot about stabs. We're into stabs here. Upcoming schedule! Tuesday, April 6th: Episode #172: Writers’ Room: A Day in the Life — Absolute Zero Tuesday, April 13th: Episode #173: Writers’ Room: Disparation — Citizen Storm vs. The Primal Wardens Tuesday, April 20th: Editor’s Note #45 (?!?!) Tuesday, April 27th: Episode #174: Classic Episode: xxtz’Hulissh So many questions! And also some game shows! What's not to like? Join us next time for an exciting Creative Process!

I hope you're wearing green today!  Show Notes: Run Time: 1:30:36 Some goofs, but then, a story! Actually, no, then another set of goofs. And THEN a story. Lots of interesting stuff in this one. Building out a whole set of stuff that we've had floating around in the shadows but have never formalized. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do! Around 46 minutes in, we take some questions... and provide answers to them!  As we mention on the air, this week's live show is on Thursday instead of Friday, and it's not Editor's Note #45. Of course it's not. We may never get to Editor's Note #45. We'll keep trying! But this Thursday's recording is an unexpected return of the Publishers' Note! Paul and Christopher will be live for our Patreon supporters at 11 AM, Central Time. If you have

People, places, and odds-and-ends! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:48:14 This is an interesting "creative process" episode, in that you get to see a slightly darker side of the creative process. Both Adam and I were feeling pretty rough at the time of recording, but we slogged on and made it happen. By the end, we feel like it turned out to be solid, but we wanted to be honest about our process here. After about 55 minutes of goofs, storytelling, and place-crafting, we get to your questions! Thanks for asking them! If you want to ask more questions, use our handy form! If you want to be part of the nonsense — especially during live shows — join our Patreon! So many opt

Why must they fight? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:23:14 We talk about the weather! Gripping content, right?  Then, we talk about Fanatic and NightMist! (Or at least we attempt to, after a few false starts and rabbit trails.) Not as interesting as the weather, but it'll have to do! Unsurprisingly, there were a few outstanding questions about each of these characters, which we get to in record time at around the 28 minute mark. Thanks for joining us!

Want to ask questions for future episodes? <a href="https

Another tale: told! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:36:15 Back to the drawing writing board! We do some goofs, as per usual, then get into it. We set the story straight on Fashion — her appearances, her character changes, her disappearance, her reappearance... look, there's a lot. Then! We craft a tale! For you! After over half an hour of story making, we get to question answering! And then cover discussing, the results of which you can see above. Join us next time! JOIN US! JOIN US! JOIN US! JOIN US! JOIN US! JOIN US! JOIN US! JOIN US! JOIN US! JOIN US! JOIN US! JOIN US! JOIN US! JOIN US! JOIN US! JOIN US! 

It's the longest Bullpen ever! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:10:18 Welcome to Chris Burton, AKA Braithwhite! Right at the top, we establish that we'll call him "Braithwhite" for the purposes of the episode, and then we all go on to call him a variety of names over the course of the following two hours. Enjoy the confusion! Here's the upcoming schedule! Tuesday, March 2nd: Episode #168 - Writers' Room: NightMist vs. Fanatic Tuesday, March 9th: Episode #169 - Creative Process: Hero HQs Tuesday, March 16th: Episode #170 - Writers’ Room: Luck o’ the Setback Tuesday, March 23rd: Editor’s Note #45 (THE REAL RETURN! PROBABLY!) Tuesday, March 30th: Episode #171 - Creative Process: American Folklore After all that, we dive into questions all about Sentinels of the Multiver

Delightful devices... with dangerous drawbacks! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:36:36 We goof a bit at the top, but we also talk about what the last week+ of news of/reactions to Sentinels of the Multiverse: Definitive Edition. Remember, this coming Friday, we're recording a Bullpen all about Definitive Edition, so get your questions in now! Just after the 5 minute mark, we delve into treats and tricks. At around 36 minutes in, we get distracted by watching a video. This is that video. Finally, we get to your questions at around the 57 minute mark. At the end, we descent into madness. Why? Blame it on the boogie! See you next time! If you're one of our Patreon supporters, join us this Friday for a LIVE Bullpen!

All new — all different! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:33:30 Here's the announcement! We talk about all that is Sentinels of the Multiverse: Definitive Edition! The people that worked on it, the contents of it, the updates to game design. There's even a Polygon article! There's more than we can cover in one episode... but that's why we're coming back in two weeks with another Bullpen! So, get your Definitive Edi

Welcome to the Multiverse of Sentinel Comics! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:59:14 Hello, listener! This is (hopefully) a decent jumping-on episode. At least, it is in terms of content - Trevor (our producer) wants me to make sure it's clear that our audio quality used to be a ton better back before Adam and I were each recording in our own homes, and hopefully we'll be back in studio again before the end of this year. Blame the pandemic! Sorry about that. We follow the standard-ish format of a bit of goofing around, followed by the Overview (the meat and potatoes of the episode). After that, we eventually get to the questions at around an hour and 15.5 minutes in, which help flesh out even more of the story! In this episode, we have a notable SPOILER segment! If

Now with special guest Dave! Show Notes Run Time: 2:06:26 Our newest Bullpen yet! The secondest Bullpen we've ever done! What a delight. And having both Paul and Dave here not only made it a good time; it also made it a Bullpen. Here's the upcoming schedule: Tuesday, February 2nd: Episode #165: [REDACTED] Tuesday, February 9th: Episode #166: Creative Process: Ignazio Gallo’s Treasure Trove Tuesday, February 16th: Editor’s Note #45 (THE RETURN!) Tuesday, February 23rd: Episode #167: Writers' Room: Fashion After some intros, goofs, and talking about the schedule, we get into your questions - all about Sentinel Comics: The Roleplaying Game - at around the 5 minute mark. Thanks, everyone! We'll definitely do more SCRPG content as the products make their way into wider distribution. 

First "normal" episode of the year! How normal, you ask? Not very at all, actually! Thanks for asking! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:31:34 Right off the bat, we get weird. Like really weird. Look. I'm sorry. OK? The goofs go ever on and on, down from the door where it began... But even we must finally talk about the actual topic of the day. We get into it at the 7 minute mark. There's a lot of storytelling. It's pretty OK. We seem to still remember how to do this. Whew! A bit before the 39 minute mark, we begin to address your questions, delightful as they are. Thanks for joining us! We hope you can join us this Friday for the live recording of this month's Bullpen, featuring Special Guest DAVE! (And Not Really All That Special In Comparison Guest Paul.)

Welcome to a new year! The only thing I can say about this, is that you should listen to it. It's... something else. Back to regular programming soon!

Surprise, surprise. We said there wasn't going to be an episode today, but that was the most obvious of lies, right? Show Notes: Run Time: 12:32 Happy Birthday to everyone mentioned, and to everyone else that had a birthday this year. Listen to our very 2020 song, and despair.  This is what going mad sounds like. See you next year!

It's a new type of episode for the end of a very long year! Show Notes: 1:48:43 The biggest cast we've ever had! Including a surprise twist early on in the episode! Here's what happens in January of next year! Upcoming schedule:  Tuesday, January 5th: Start of Year Break Tuesday, January 12th: Episode #163: Writers' Room: Ra and Setback Buddy-Cop Story Tuesday, January 19th: The Bullpen #2 (featuring Paul and DAVE!) Tuesday, January 26th: Episode #164: Creative Process: SCRPG Lore Crash Course After MUCH goofing a

Happy Holidays, everyone! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:32:52 Adam is back! Or, rather he will be starting next month! Except next month's schedule will feel similar to the last couple months because of beginning of the year reasons and having a packed Editor's Note! But forget about all that: ADAM IS BACK! Sort of! Whatever! Get excited! We are silly for about 7 minutes, and then we get into actually writersing this room, in which we continue to be silly. That said, given that this is a Haka story, who could have guessed that we'd start with an action-based story but then pull a switcheroo and make it about feelings and sadness? Would we do that? Who can say? After much storying and telling and a little crossover of both of those words, we get to your questions at around the 41 minute mark. <p

The FINAL Publishers' Note! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:29:11 We've got all the greatest Publishers' Note style hits: questions for Paul, getting into the weeds on Star Trek and Tolkien, Sentinel Comics lore, a variety of game shows, and a pile of Meta-Meta questions! What more could you ask for? Paul and I have had a blast noting publishery for you all. Thanks for sticking with us for this weird schedule. But we'll be back to normalish at the start of the year! For now, look forward to a holiday-themed episode next week, and then a bigger than usual Editor's Note the week after that!

Gather round, everyone. It's time for some real talk. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:33:39 We had a lot of fun recording this one. We learned some things - about PSAs, about comics, and about ourselves along the way. Remember, kids: there's always a moral to every story.  At around 58 minutes into the episode, we finally get to your questions! There, we talk about the subject of this episode, but also! We talk about a fan-favorite new hero/old trendsetter/in between gladiator! Who could it be? No way to know. It's a mystery forever. Also, goodness, listening back to this episode, we're at our best/worst when we're just laughing at our own bad jokes. How can you people stand us? Thanks everyone for listening! This coming Friday, we record our last Publishers' Note, so make sure you tune in to wish Paul a fond-farewell as co-host! And don't forget: Make Good Choices!

The Penultimate Publishers' Note! Show Notes: Run time: 1:18:42 We start off with the what we'll talk about in December! Upcoming schedule: Tuesday, December 1st: Episode #161 - Creative Process: PSAs of the Multiverse Tuesday, December 8th: Publishers’ Note #9 Tuesday, December 15th: Episode #162 - Writers’ Room: A Haka Holiday Story Tuesday, December 22nd: Editors’ Note #45 Tuesday, December 29th: End of Year Break Then we get into questions! Lots of fun topics, and more game shows than ever before!  Thanks everyone for joining us! Get your questions in for the December episodes ASAP! We'll catch you...

The last episode of Spooky Month! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:30:48 We do some goofs for about four minutes, which doesn't sound like a long time... and yet. Four minutes can really drag on when it's just all goofs. Then! We tell a story! We craft it from whole cloth, live on the air! Certainly nothing obscured and no weird twists! Very straightforward beat-em-up tale here. Nothing to be afraid of... Just after the 36 minute mark, we get into your questions. Thanks for keeping up the flow of questions, listeners! We get so many wonderful questions, and we love seeing them all. Keep up the great work! Submit your questions here! If you're a Contributor on <a href

Paul and Christopher are a bit loopy, but that doesn't mean they can't answer questions! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:42:48 There's a pretty heavy-hitting topic right off the bat, even before the actual question section, but then we get into questions and never quite recover! Paul spends... a LOT of time talking about Star Trek. We hope you like Star Trek. Or at least hearing Paul talk about Star Trek. And there are TWO different game shows in this episode! Who would have guessed?! All in all, more silliness and also some potentially useful (though mostly useless) info was dispensed. Another successful Publishers' Note! If you have any questions for the next episode: "Writers’ Room: NightMist vs Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde" make sure you get them in before this Friday, November 13th! Send them in using

We make up some stuff! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:25:05 We goof around, as per usual, but then make up a few villains and even get into their stories a bit! At around 41 minutes in, we stop making stuff up, and start making up answers to your questions! Near the end of the episode, there's a question about how Adam's spouse feels about the version of Baron Blade from the Freedom Five board game, which is now on Kickstarter - go check it out! Here's what she thinks: In case you live in the USA and haven't voted yet and it's still the day this

Paul and Christopher did a livestream, even though it got interrupted multiple times! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:29:28 In the voting for what Writers' Room we'd do, there was a tie! So, we cast the deciding vote. But clearly there's interest in the other topic as well, so it'll be back up for voting sometime, for certain! Here's the upcoming schedule! Tuesday, November 3rd: Episode #159 - Creative Process: Dark Watch Villiains Tuesday, November 10th: Publishers’ Note #7 Tuesday, November 17th: Episode #160 - Writers’ Room: NightMist vs Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde Tuesday, November 24th: Publishers’ Note #8 Tune in for all sorts

It's such a spooky time! Not as spooky as next month, mind you, but spooky enough to tell a tale of BLOOD! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:49:58 Adam and I goof around for several minutes before finally getting into the sweet meat and sweet potatoes of the episode, at around the 5 minute mark.  We craft a thrilling tale! Neither of us knew where this would end up when we started, and you can hear us double back and rework the story as we go. Twists and turns abound! But, all told, we're pretty pleased with how it turned out. And not without future costs for both protagonist and antagonist alike! At around the 53 minute mark, we start in on your questions, both related to Blood Countess and the Court of Blood, as well as a healthy crop of questions on the Phoenix! By popular demand! At the

It's your favorite Paul and your second favorite Christopher! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:07:16 We talk about a bunch of things in a variety of topics, including a new name for the questions section that we finish off with. What will that name be?! Listen to find out! Get your Court of Blood and Blood Countess Bathory questions in before Friday morning to have them considered for this Friday's recording of next Tuesday's Writer's Room episode! Use this handy form to send in your questions!

We're gonna bring the flavor, show you how! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:49:10 We just kept going on this one. Probably would have continued, but time was - and is - of the essence. The essence of what? Well, let us keep SOME of our secrets, dear listeners. After a few minutes of banter, we get into adding people to Fanatic's story. Not all of them are sad stories! Not ALL of them. A bit after the 1 hour and 12 minute mark, we answer the letters you've written to us! Including a bunch of old letters that have languished in our dreaded inbox for far too long!  Join us this Friday for another livestreamed Publishers' Note, if you're on the Patreon. If you're not a Letters Page Patreon supporter, totally cool - we understand. Our self esteem is definitely not just based on our listenership. We're individual people with our own stuff going on. Really. Anyway, if you don't love us that way, NBD - you'll get that Publishers' N

Paul and Christopher talk about the weather! And some other stuff too, I guess! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:31:39 Here's the upcoming schedule! Tuesday, October 6th: Episode #157 - Creative Process: Fanatic Supporting Cast Tuesday, October 13th: Publishers’ Note #5 Tuesday, October 20th: Episode #158 - Writers’ Room: Blood Countess Bathory Tuesday, October 27th: Publishers’ Note #6 Also, we answer questions about all sorts of things, talk about a bunch of Sentinels Lore - including a Sentinel Comics recap from Paul's point of view - and a series of Andy questions! Check out the Letters Page Patreon to be a supporter and join in on these Publishers and Editors livestreams! Also, submit your questions using our <a href= "https://docs.google.com/forms/

Let's. Get. 90s. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:30:04 Adam and I missed each other so much. We haven't seen each other in so long. We almost died. Witness our heartwrenching reunion.  After only a few minutes of goofs, we get to the overview where we do a bunch of work of a variety of sorts! Positioning, informing, redacting, problem solving, creating, naming, storytelling, and more! And we go through it pretty quickly, considering how much we make! You never know how long we're going to linger on any one thing. A bit before the 39 minute mark, we dig into your questions on a variety of related (and barely related) topics. And after about 40+ minutes of that, we talk briefly about the cover, which can be seen above! Thanks everyone for listening! We enjoy reading your letters and answeri

We're back! Paul is back! Excitement! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:30:34 There's plenty of nonsense in this one - fear not - but we also get the start of GTG from Paul's perspective, and even get into Sentinel Comics lore content... including some MASSIVE Sentinel Comics future preview spoilers! Questions are asked, answered, and more! If you want to submit questions for Christopher, Adam, and/or Paul, use our handy question submission form!

A bunch of new foes, coming at you RA and unfiltered! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:47:15 Adam is back this week, so let's make some Sentinel Comics content! We do some chats and some goofs, tell you about Adam's new drawing tablet, talk about the state of existence and how overwhelming the world is... and then finally get into actually doing our job here at around 9 minutes in. We make a few fun foes, each with their own ups and downs. You haven't seen the last of any of these jerks! At around 52 minutes in, we get to your questions, answering questions about Ra, some of his foes, his boat, and also Legacy, and also also The Argent Adept Soothsayer Carmichael.  Thanks for listening! As always, if you have any questions for us, <a href= "https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd9aq1Kv7Y1eObnBj4fqhQzwI3rY

Paul is back! Get hype! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:13:07 We goof about, talk about Trevor, tell some stories, and then get to questions! Paul and I answer questions about: Bending Alternate European history of Spirit Island Regrets? Lies St. Louis GTG plans Drinking songs Sentinel Comics Lore Questions from chat Edutainment RPGs Andy Questions and more!

Hey, friends! Adam's back, and he did an AWESOME cover! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:20:44 It's good to be back recording together again. It feels like it's been a long time, even though it's only been a week away from each other. After only a reasonable amount of goofs, we get right down to the brassiest of tacks. We start overviewing around 4 minutes in.  At the 40 minute mark, we get to your questions! We take questions on the topic at hand (or, rather, at fist), and we also some K.N.Y.F.E. questions, as well! In the overview and question sections, we address some pretty heavy things. Unsurprisingly, writing a 70s comic about a black hero based on blaxploitation tropes would have been weighty in the 70s, and it's definitely still a rousing topic today. We want t

Paul is here! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:15:10 We start off with some... non-technical difficulties. After that, some goofs, some introductions, and more goofs, we talk about voting for episodes in September. Upcoming schedule: Tuesday, September 1st: Publishers’ Note #2 Tuesday, September 8th: Episode #155 - Creative Process: Ra Villains Tuesday, September 15th: Publishers’ Note #3 Tuesday, September 22nd: Episode #156 - Writers’ Room: An issue of Terminal Ballistics, ft. Setback & Expatriette Tuesday, September 29th: Publishers’ Note #4 Then, finally, around the 22 minute mark, we get to your questions. Featuring a brand new song from Trevor!!! Our plan was to read a bunch of letters from listeners and then also take questions from the chat. Instead, we g

Good morning, heroes! Let's talk about Legacy's friends! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:30:44 Adam and I are here to talk about the character that you, dear listeners, demanded we bring up again. You can't say we never gave you anything! We're just here to act on the will of the people. Simple public servants, that's us. We talk about some minor characters, but also some that have more impact than expected on Legacy's story.  Which Legacy? Well, we get into that, too! A bit after the 39 minute mark, we dig into your questions, which are many and excellent. This Friday is the first recording of the first ever "Publishers' Note" of the Letters Page podcast, starring our very own Paul Bender! You'll be able to hear that episode in audio form next Tuesday, but if you're on the <a href= "htt

We did a Gen Con live! Sort of! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:47:42 Right off the bat, I engage in an entirely visual goof, which doesn't work terribly well as radio... Fortunately, you can watch the video here!  Trevor made some very special versions of the songs used in this song, including cool videos! Worth watching.  We goof around a standard amount, taking roughly 7 minutes of episode time to do so, and then we take questions of all sorts, ranging so far and wide as to be impossible to properly represent here. What sorts of things do we talk about? You'll have to listen to find out! Friday of this week, Adam and I are recording the "Legacy Supporting Cast" epis

Let's make some magical friends! (Spoiler: most of these people are not magical, and many of them are not friends, either.) Show Notes: Run Time: 1:25:50 We goof around for a few minutes, and then get down to the business of making friends for a hard-to-be-friends-with hero! At around 38 minutes in, we get to your questions, on a variety of topics. This coming Friday is our recording of the Gen Con live recording! It'll be live on our YouTube channel, with the link posted on our Patreon. Please join us at 11 AM, Central Time!

Big announcements in this one! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:00:43 Upcoming schedule: Tuesday, August 4th: Gen Con 2021 Live! (Different Than Ever Before!) Tuesday, August 11th: Episode #153 - Creative Process: Legacy Supporting Cast Tuesday, August 18th: Publishers’ Note #1: Christopher & Paul! Tuesday, August 25th: Episode #154 - Writers' Room: Black Fist The recordings of each of those episodes will be on the Friday before that Tuesday. No calendar this time, but we trust in your ability to figure out what Fridays come before the above listed Tuesdays.  We talk about a bunch of things in this episode (besides our blatant campaigning during the most recent voting and the reveal of the upcoming Publishers' Notes with me and Paul!), including but not limited to: OblivAeon Critics The Time-Crazed Prisoner Setback Villains Baro

Let's go to SPAAAAACE! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:17:13 We start off by some questionable poll campaigning. If you're on the Letters Page Patreon, let us try to convince you that the Legacy Supporting Cast episode needs more votes than all other episodes! Why? For reasons we'll reveal this Friday! Then, at around 5 minutes in, we actually start in on the overview. We do some storytelling, including digging into a limited series we've only ever talked about once before, back in the olden days. We craft a story with a bunch of new names and events and bugs and a new metal? And a spaceship?! Lots going on here. Finally, we get to your questions at around the 40 minute mark. If you're on the <span styl

Let's get pet-riotic! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:33:13 We ramble a bit at the start about what we'll be doing in about a month for this year's very different Gen Con live episode, and then we talk about the nature of today's episode. Then, finally, only 6ish minutes in, we actually dive in. (And end up having a great time! Spoilers, I guess.) You can tell we've been recording too long a little after the 1 hour mark, as we both unintentionally drop some swears. Trevor cleans up after us. Thank you/sorry, Trevor! We finally break from making up pets stories at around the 1 hour and 5 minute mark and answer your questions. Catch you next week for a K.N.Y.F.E. in space story! Get your questions in now!

Let's get super ultra kawaii!! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:46:06 So, we get into the meta-topic right off the bat, and Adam has to explain a bunch of stuff to me because I'm just not as familiar with the medium. Which, turns out to be fine, because I'm familiar enough with the tropes to make the story happen! But, I'm getting ahead of myself. For that, you'll have to listen to the overview, which starts just before 14 minutes into the episode. (But before that, we go on about some of our favorite anime movies and TV shows.) The overview section is all over the place. We have to figure out where this story lands in Sentinel Comics history, what kind of story we're telling, who it's about, surprise ourselves with who the main characters are... it's a lot. But! We make it work, and are pleased with how it turns

Another Editor's Note, live from the internet! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:32:44 Here's the upcoming schedule! Tuesday, July 7th: Episode #150 - Creative Process: July 4th Pet Special Tuesday, July 14th: Episode #151 - Writers' Room: Headhunter K.N.Y.F.E. Tuesday, July 21st: Editor’s Note #44 Tuesday, July 28th: Episode #152 - Creative Process: Argent Adept's Supporting Cast Have I gotten to the office to update the calendar yet? Well, if there's a calendar pictured below, then yes! Otherwise, no, I haven't done it yet. Which one is it? Only you can know! In this episode, we cover a variety of topics, including: Lingering OblivAeon questions Realities Metaphysical nonsense Scions The recently announced Freedom Fi

We're all over the place on this one! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:47:38 This episode took us longer to record than anything else we've made in... a long time. We got started started around 11 AM and didn't finish until 4 PM. Whew! Anyway, enjoy these additions to the world of Sentinel Comics! Do these characters seem not much for you? Well, yeah, that's why they never really took off - D-List all the way! At around the 57 minute mark, we finally get to questions. We answer questions about D-List heroes, but also about various Thorathian topics, just because there were a lot of them in the backlog. We hope to see you Friday at 11 AM (Central Time) for a LIVE Editor's Note! Want to watch it live and even take part? Join our Patreon!

Let's talk about Tyler Vance!  Show Notes: Run Time: 1:10:06 We craft three stories, possibly in record time? We were shocked at how well it went, honestly. We hope you enjoy them as much as we do! After speedy storytelling, we get into your questions just after the 29 minute mark.  We talk about the cover - which you can see above - at about 1 hour and 2 minutes in. Adam went all in on the Barry Windsor-Smith style! If you're a contributor to the Letters Page Patreon, voting is up now! Go tell us what to do! If you're not on the Letters Page Patreon, maybe today is the day? Only you can decide! Catch y'all next time!

Adam's birth month is over! There will be feasting and dancing in May next year! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:15:31 After some birth month/day talk, we get into the overview a couple minutes in, where we first attempt to clear up some misconceptions, which devolves into a conversation not at all pertinent to the world of Sentinel Comics. Then, we once again go into too many issues for a single Writers' Room episode, but not as bad as other recent episodes. We just have a penchant for writing in arcs.  At a bit before the 38 minute mark, we get to your delightful questions! And then, at just before the 1 hour and 10 minute mark, we talk very briefly about the cover, which you can see above. If you're a contributor to the <a href= "https://www.patreon.com/theletterspage" target="_blank" rel= "noopene

One issue? In this economy? Nah, let's do a bunch of issues! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:30:52 For whatever reason, we felt like being overachievers today. Enjoy more than one issue! Also, we get to talk not just action, but also intrigue... and politics! Maerynian politics, that is. We get to your questions just after the 45 minute mark. Questions today brought to you by Zap Dragon, who I just recently found out is also Ehkrickor! Spoilers, I guess. This is the last episode that will be released in Adam's birth month this year! However, the next episode we record will be recorded still in his birth month, so the celebration isn't quite over yet! Looking forward to next time, in which we create more issues!

A long Editors Note mostly about Sentinel Comics: the Roleplaying Game! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:11:38 Adam's birth month continues! Also, we just released the preview of the SCRPG core rulebook to the Kickstarter backers last week, so we celebrated with an episode with SO MANY questions about the game! Here's the upcoming schedule: Tuesday, June 2nd: Episode #146 - Writers' Room: Citizens Hammer & Anvil Tuesday, June 9th: Episode #147 - Writers’ Room: Day in the Life: Bunker Tuesday, June 16th: Episode #148 - Creative Process: D-List Heroes Tuesday, June 23rd: Editor’s Note #43 Tuesday, June 30th: Episode #149 - Writers’ Room: Disparation: Anime/Manga Catch you next time!

It's time for another episode! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:11:50 Ready to learn about a 90s event we've never talked about before? We had a lot of fun with this one - we hope you do, too! After about 40 minutes of crafting and telling this story (in more parts than we intended), we get to your questions. And only a few minutes into the question section, I get to read a couple big reveals for upcoming stuff! Exciting times, these. At just before the 1 hour and 3 minute mark, we do the "cover" section, which also breaks down the order of the parts of the Strike Force Invasion event. We hope you can join us Friday for a live recording of Editor's Note #42!

Cosmic? Yeah! What's more cosmic than a lady that makes robots with her brain and her best friend, a robot that she didn't make with her brain? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:29:07 This is the first episode of Adam's birth month. If you're not into birth month celebrations for Adam... well, I've got bad news for you. That's what May is going to be. He likes a big to do about the whole thing, and I like humoring him. So there. We talk about that (and a few other things, but mostly the birth month stuff) for about 4 minutes, and then we hit the ground running! This one is a lot of fun to see come together live, as we didn't know at all where it would go - the cosmic thing really threw a curveball into any of our prior thoughts, but it turned out great! At least, we like it. We hope you do, too! Just af

Let's envision some friends! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:19:11 We're both settling into this new way of life more and are feeling way better, thanks for asking! As a result, we've got a real downer of a supporting cast episode, just so you know.  We spend barely over one minute with banter and intro and just get right into it! And we create some stuff of various levels of good and bad feeling.  Around 37 minutes in, we get to your questions! And what a delightful parcel of questions they are. Good stuff explored in the question section today. Join us next time, as we kick off Adam's birth month!

Our first remote live editor's note! The audio quality is better than we feared it would be, but it's still not up to Trevor-approved-quality! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:13:00 Christopher's doing pretty well, but Adam's spiraling into chaos. If nothing else, this means that the more things change, the more they stay - in some small ways - the same. Next month is May, which means it's Adam's birth-month! Celebrate! Here's the schedule for the month of partying:  Tuesday, May 5th: Episode #143 - Writers' Room: Unity and Omnitron (X or U) Tuesday, May 12th: Episode #144 - Writers' Room: post-Bloodsworn Sky-Scraper Tuesday, May 19th: Editor’s Note #42 Tuesday, May 26th: Episode #145 - Writers’ Room: Leviathan</sp

A story of a new standard! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:31:46 Adam and I are both rather stir crazy already, but we're excited to be talking about Sentinel Comics! A lot going on here. We banter a bit, but then dig into justifying Benchmark's backstory against issue numbers. We solve everything, and there are no more problems. Everything is fine. Oh, and also do a bit of thinking on morality/human nature. Finally, we get into crafting and telling the story of the issue just after 14 minutes in. We get to your questions at just before the 40 minute mark. We answer a lot of questions, not just about Benchmark, but also about Chrono-Ranger! And, finally, we talk about the cover around 1 hour and 26 minutes in. Thanks for listening! If you're on the Patreon, join us on Friday at 11 AM

April will make a fool out of all of us! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:30:04 This episode is the first one we've ever recorded remotely! If you can tell right away, apologies for the drop in audio quality. We'd much rather record in person, but the health and safety of Adam's family and Christopher's cat are too important to sacrifice. If you can't detect a notable drop in quality, that's because Trevor is an AV wizard! As a result of not recording using our usual setup, we aren't able to pause recording really, so these episodes are much more "uncut". Trevor still edits them quite a bit, but we attempt to push through and do as much "live" as possible. Does that make for a better listening experience? Heck, we don't know - we've never done this before! We talk a bit about social distancing and oth

Some frigid foes! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:33:59 Minimal goofs, mostly due to existential dread. Tough times, these. Here's the image we discussed early on in the overview segment: Did you make this? If you're the one who made this, let us know! Good job. We'd love to give you credit for your good work. We hope you're all getting plenty of social distancing! Join us next month for more shelter in place and talk about Sentinel Comics!

We did this one LIVE! For everyone! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:37:15 We had a great time with this one, even in these trying times. You can watch it here!  Upcoming schedule: Tuesday, April 7th: Episode #140 - Writers' Room: Miss Information’s April Fools Tuesday, April 14th: Episode #141 - Writers' Room: A pre-OblivAeon Benchmark story Tuesday, April 21st: Editor’s Note #41 Tuesday, April 28th: Episode #142 - Creative Process: The Visionary Supporting Cast And here's a calendar! Stay healthy and safe out there, everyone!

Hello, friends! Or foes?! Who can tell?!?! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:12:49 So, this episode is the hero/villain team-up episode. We didn't NOT succeed at that... but you'll have to listen to find out what happens. It's certainly an attempt at the given topic! We make up for it by talking about a bunch more comics than just one, if that's any consolation to you. This Friday, March 20th, is our LIVE Editor's Note recording! If you're on the Letters Page Patreon, please come join in at 11 AM, Central! We'll be in the Discord as well to take your questions. And, if you're a Contributor on the Patreon, the voting is up now for next month's episodes! Go vote! Voting is im

Chrono-Ranger in Feudal Japan! Show Notes: Run Time: 58:28 Under an hour?! An episode that doesn't break the hour mark?!?! It's true. We only had two questions for this episode, so the questions section is much shorter than usual. Not to fear, though - we've already been amassing questions for the next couple episodes, and there are lots. This one just happened to be a bit more on the quiet side. We get to the overview portion in which we establish the type of story, determine when it lands, and then craft and tell the tale, starting a bit before the 4 minute mark. That process takes us more than half of the episode, so we get to questions after 38 minutes in. Then, only several minutes later, we talk about the cover right after the 51 minute mark. And that's the show! Thanks

We have been wrong in the past about the Naturalist, but not today! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:20:47 We get into a LOT on this one! We just sort of hit the ground running, and keep up the pace for quite a while! For those of you who like timestamps, we get to the overview around 5 and a half minutes in, the question section just before the 35 minute mark, and finally button things up around an hour and 14 minutes in. A couple minutes after that, we can't remember how the link to our Patreon is spelled. You can find the answer here! Thanks for listening, everyone! When the next episode goes live, I'll be in international waters doing my best to avoid that COVID-19, but I'll be back the week after that for a live show! See you then!

Parse gets murdery! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:26:31 To be fair, Parse started out very murdery, and then mellowed over time. Today, we tell one of those early stories, and we do not hold back! Slight content warning on this one for (audio discussion of) graphic violence, as well as some drugs (not really drugs used, though - just drugs being generally around). Also, she's a jerk. Just so you know. Forewarned is forearmed, and with the amount Parse uses that bow, she's gotta have great forearms, right? At around the 47 minute mark, we get into questions. You asked them - we answer them! We talk a bit about the cover just after 1 hour and 16 minutes in, though you likely have already seen the cover by now. It's in these show notes! Thanks everyone for listening! We're getting close

Adam's back! I'm excited. Are you excited? You should be. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:30:22 I'd say we spend a lot of time goofing around, but let's be real: Adam and I only see each other once a week these days, so there's a LOT of goofing to be done. Gotta get it all out of our systems! Here's the upcoming schedule! Tuesday, March 3rd: Episode #136 - Creative Process: Naturalist supporting cast Tuesday, March 10th: Episode #137 - Writer's Room: Chrono-Ranger in Feudal Japan Tuesday, March 17th: Episode #138 - Writer's Room: Hero/Villain team-up Tuesday, March 24th: Editor’s Note #40 Tuesday, March 31st: Episode #139 - Creative Process: Absolute Zero’s villains And who doesn't love a photo of a calendar? That big red stripe on the calendar is w

A familiar team, yet one that never was! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:06:35 We do another early Disparation story! These are always fun. Just a note on Letters Page timeline: we're pretty much back on our regular schedule but the episode numbering is one behind since we interjected with last week's non-standard episode. As a result, the first episode for March will be what was going to be the last February episode. We'll still have voting and Editor's Notes as usual, and we're still a week ahead on recording time, just in case Adam has to pull away for a week for baby reasons, which is not entirely unlikely. We shall see!  Catch you next time!

WHAT IS EVEN HAPPENING Show Notes:  Run Time: 40:06 This isn't a real episode! I mean, it has all of the elements you'd expect: an overview, a questions section, and even some things from the past that you might not expect! However, it's missing a major key part that makes Letters Page episodes possible. You'll just have to listen to find out. More notes? Nah, no more notes. Take a listen. It's a fun time.

You didn't request an episode about the death of Legacy, but here we are! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:19:54 As per the topic, we tell a story about a villain vs a villain, but with unexpected twists! We get to the Overview just after 10 minutes in, questions at the 38 minute mark, and talk about the above cover at around 1 hour and 14 minutes. Note: the last question we answer is one of the best questions with one of the best answer, and also this is one of my favorite covers that Adam has ever done.  Catch you next time!

The first live show of the year! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:17:59 Here's the upcoming schedule! Tuesday, February 4th: Episode #134 Writer’s Room: Disparation vol. 1 Tuesday, February 11th: Episode #135 Writer’s Room: an early Parse story Tuesday, February 18th: Editor’s Note #39 Tuesday, February 25th: Episode #136 Creative Process: Naturalist supporting cast And here's the calendar of when we're recording: (Mind you, this could all change if Adam has a baby.) We talk about all manner of things in this one, including but not limited to: OblivAeon The SCRPG Animated Shows Babies Sunglasses and more! Also, we were asked a question about what Mr. Fixer was called by each of the charac

We're finally back! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:08:32 We're here in the future! And we're going to talk about the past! A not-too-distant but very different past! We tell a tale out of the Inversiverse, and things get twisty! We finally start in with overviewing and storytelling around four and a half minutes in.  After all that noodling, we finally get to your questions at the 47 minute mark. If you're on the Letters Page Patreon, join us this coming Friday for our anniversary live show! We didn't intend for it to be specifically an anniversary live show, but it turns out that we're doing that recording on the same date that we launched our first episode in 2017! So long ago! No one was alive then! Thanks, everyone!

Welcome to a new year-- a new century!! Show Notes: Run Time: 6:24 Just a quick hello to usher in a new year. Thanks for making this show possible!  

Hey, everyone! We said there was no episode this week, but hopefully you've learned that you can't trust us by now! Show Notes: Run Time: 20:25 We talk about this year, answer some questions, and perhaps more? (No, not really anything more than that.) See you next year, everyone!

It's Christmas Eve! Let's talk about an avenging angel with absolutely no chill whatsoever. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:20:50 We talk a bit about Christmas, and then, about 4 minutes in, we get to work! We expected this one to be tough, but it turns out that we were visited by the ghost of Sentinel Comics past, and they did the work for us!  Just after the 53 minute mark, we start in on your questions. At just before an hour and 15 minutes in, we talk a bit about the cover, which is shown above. Happy Holidays, everyone! See you all next year!

It's the Holiday times! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:35:49 We had a pile of technical difficulties, but we still made it work! Thanks to Trevor for cleaning up everything with his fancy editing.  Here's the upcoming schedule: Tuesday, January 7rd: Beginning of the year: no episode Tuesday, January 14th: Episode #132 - Writers' Room: Disparation: Inversiverse Tuesday, January 21th: Editor’s Note #38 Tuesday, January 28th: Episode #133 - Writers' Room: Villain vs Villain We also had a pile of questions!

We accidentally got over ambitious with this one! Behold: Two covers! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:17:59 We just got back from PAX Unplugged, but we recorded this right before we left! We goofed around for a few minutes, but after only about 4 minutes of goofs, we got right to business! We craft enough framing for a story that we end up doing both parts 1 and 2 in one episode! So speedy! Around the 50 minute mark, we get into your questions. At about an hour and 10 minutes in, we talk a bit about the covers, both of which can be seen above! This episode is released on Tuesday, December 10th. This Friday, December 13th, we'll be recording a live Editor'

The Eeeeeeeennnnnnclave of the Eeeennnnddddlliiiiiiiiiinnggsss!!! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:09:53 We recorded this episode the day before Thanksgiving, but now it's the week after Thanksgiving! How does time even work? We talk about a bunch of space stuff, to the point of even crafting and telling multiple tales, due to the anthology nature of the Cosmic Tales book at this point. Around 32 minutes in, we get to your questions!  The day after this episode releases, we're recording another episode on a Wednesday - two weeks in a row! Amazing! This one is happening because we're about to be in Philadelphia for PAX Unplugged, so if you're around there, come find us! Catch you next time!

Good morning, everyone! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:28:14 We banter about RPG stuff, then get into a series of conversations about just what comic book we're talking about today. You already know, due to the name of the episode and also the nifty cover art above! We have a blast putting together all the building blocks, telling the story, answering your question, and discussing the cover. We hope you enjoy it, too!

Good morning, everyone! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:39:54 The upcoming schedule! Tuesday, December 3rd: Episode #129 - Writers’ Room: A tale of the Enclave of the Endlings Tuesday, December 10th: Episode #130 - Writers’ Room: Something about Captain Cosmic & Galactra Tuesday, December 17th: Editor’s Note #37 Tuesday, December 24th: Episode #131 - Writers’ Room: A Very Fanatic Christmas Story Tuesday, December 31st: No episode! Happy New Year’s Eve! Here's the calendar! We talk about a ton of things, including: Taco Bell OblivAeon, of course Sentinel Comics RPG Taco Bell Phobias Mr. Jitters Taco Bell Count Barzakh HiveMind Taco Bell And so much more!</

Time for a very animated episode! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:38:51 In this episode, we start off by talking a bit about the previous animated series stuff, as it's all quite excellent. Seriously, go listen to those other animated series episodes - they're great. Then, after about four and a half minutes of banter, we get into this latest phase of animated shows: four shows (including one entirely new show) and two movies! That takes us... a while.  Finally, we get to your questions right around the one hour and eighteen minute mark. Thank you for the great questions, everyone! The week this episode comes out will feature a live Editor's Note recording at 11 AM Central Time this coming Friday, November 15th! We hope to catch you then!

Let's get EXTREME! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:31:11 This one is about Citizen Dawn in the Extremeverse! We don't know where it's going when we start, but it ends up in a REALLY awesome place. Go figure. Like, how did we start with the seed of "Citizen Dawn" and get to that cover above? Only one way to find out! We're throwing the horns for Trevor, who did a badass job editing this one. He always does great, but he brought the noise on this one. (In this case, "brought the noise" is a good thing.) Thanks for listening, everyone!

Let's get Monstrous and Magical? Who are we kidding - we're always monstrous and magical. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:18:43 We start out assuming we've already covered all the monsters and magics... but we prove that untrue quite swiftly. But then! Your questions are what unlock even MORE great content! We start in on those questions just after the 30 minute mark. Thanks everyone for listening to these spooky but not too spooky episodes - but don't you fret: November is right around the corner! We're recording two episodes this week - tomorrow is a Disparation episode about the Extremeverse and Friday we're recording a Creative Process episode about the Animated Series, Phase 3. So, get your questions in for those episodes ASAP!

Good morning, friends! Show Notes: Run time: 1:20:52 Another silly live show with a wide variety of topics! Upcoming schedule: Tuesday, November 5th: Episode #126 - Writers' Room - Disparation (Extremeverse!) Tuesday, November 12th: Episode #127 - Creative Process - Animated Series Phase 3 Tuesday, November 19th: Editor’s Note #36 Tuesday, November 26th: Episode #128 - Writers' Room - Void Guard in Bloodsworn Colosseum And here's a calendar! Do note that the recording times are all over the place for this coming month. We're both traveling for various reasons in November, so we're fitting the recordings in where we can! So, get your questions in ASAP! We talked about lots of things, like: OblivAeon Sentinel Comics: The Roleplay

We unleash your greatest fear! A podcast! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:15:31 We explore phobias! Fears! Both irrational and otherwise! We also end up bridging over into a "Writers' Room" style episode, accidentally. Sorry about that. We just felt like creating, I guess? It worked out, but this episode is all over the place. Scary! We'll be doing the live Editor's Note on Wednesday this week, the day after this episode goes live, so if you're on The Letters Page Patreon, join us for the live recording! Thanks for listening, everyone!

Let's go into another version of reality! Again! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:15:37 We're excited to do another Disparation story, even though we don't know which one! Let's figure that out, together! No spoilers, but here are the various timestamps where stuff kicks off: Overview: 2:55 Recap: 40:20 Questions: 48:00 Cover Discussion: 1:09:45 Thanks for listening, everyone! Since this is a rare five Tuesday month, we'll have another episode before the Editor's Note, so look forward to that next Tuesday, and then the live recording will happen next Wednesday! Exciting times here in spoooOOOoooky OctoooOOOooober!

It's the first creepy episode of the second most creepy month: October! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:12:50 After confessing our sins, we get to our creative process overview at around the 6 minute mark. And we are on fire! (At least, in our humble opinions.) Apparently, we should create in the face of adversity more often! One successful creation segment later, we get to your questions, at just before the 50 minute mark. Thank you for your questions! Also, thanks for listening! Don't forget to have a spooky month! (But not as spooky as next month!)

We talk about the bad guys who work for the bad guys... and also some deep philosophical topics? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:40:05 Good morning, everyone! After a very short amount of banter, we go to an overview only two and a half minutes into the show.  There, we go through most every major villain and how they use minions, if at all, who those minions are, and more! This process ends up taking a while, and we have a fun time of it, all told. We hope you do, too! Then, just before the one hour and 3 minute mark, we get into your questions! We hope that we answer all questions to your satisfaction. Don't send your minions after us! Catch us next time for another Creative Process episode, this one all about Count Barzakh. What's his place in the his

We do the monthly live talking about everything thing! Show Notes:  Run Time: 1:25:51 The votes are in! What's happening in October? Upcoming schedule: Tuesday, October 1st: Episode #122 - Creative Process - Count Barzakh Tuesday, October 8th: Episode #123 - Writers' Room - an issue of Disparation Tuesday, October 15th: Episode #124 - Creative Process - Phobias Tuesday, October 22th: Editor’s Note #35 Tuesday, October 29th: Episode #125 - Creative Process - Monsters and Magic And here's a medium quality ph

We're gonna write a comedy story! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:10:59 Yet again, we craft a comic from the back catalogue of Sentinel Comics! This one is much more modern than our other Writers' Rooms episodes, as you can tell by the cover. We had a ton of fun with all the various parts of this story, and we hope you do, too! Thank you for tuning in! If you're a member of our Patreon, you can join us live this Friday at 11 AM for this month's Editor's Note!

We create and tell the first official Disparation story! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:30:19 This one is a delightful jaunt of an episode. We're excited to dig into a Disparation story again - each of the previous Disparation-focused episodes have been a lot of fun, and getting to tell the first ever is a blast! Also, hot damn, that cover is awesome. Adam continues to knock it out of the park. If you're reading this and looking at the cover before listening to the episode, you'll just have to tune in to find out what's going on here! Thank you to all of our listeners and supporters for making this happen, especially those of you over on The Letters Page Patreon. We are thril

We're gonna talk about the WHOLE THING! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:58:22 This episode, we answer so many questions from all of you! You had questions on everything from mechanics, to hero creation, to story, to both future and past info... so many things! As a result, we end up with a longer episode than we've had in a long time! We hope you enjoy all our answers! We're heading into September with new episodes - two Writers' Room episodes! Here's the calendar: To be part of our live show, join the Letters Page Patreon! Thank you to everyone who lis

It's time for another live Editor's Note! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:23:02 We reveal the schedule! Upcoming schedule: Tuesday, September 3rd: Episode #119 - Writers’ Room - Disparation Tuesday, September 10th: Episode #120 - Writers’ Room - Guise & The Scholar Tuesday, September 17th: Editor’s Note #34 Tuesday, September 24th: Episode #121 - Creative Process - Minions, Henchmen, & Underlings There will be a recording calendar posted soon, but we need to figure out some September recording times, due to the travels of both Christopher and Adam. We talk about a ton of things in this episode, including but not limited to: OblivAeon Shear Force Slaughterhouse Six The Entertainer Moral/ethical/probability conundrums Where to live Sentinel Comics connections Rewriting history And more! </ul

We had a very fun Gen Con this year! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:28:49 We talk about all manner of things, enjoy a very different musical guest than ever before, and are entirely serious the entire time! (One of those things might not be true. Hard to say.) And here's a Trevor's eye view of the room before we started while people were still coming in. There were a lot of people this year! Good thing Gen Con gave us a bigger room than ever before. Let's pack even more in next year! Between now and then, join us next week on our Patreon for a live recording of this month's

We're at it again - posting something when we said we wouldn't. What rapscallions. You can't take us anywhere. Show Notes: Run Time: 8:13 This is the second week of our two week Gen Con hiatus, and yet, we just couldn't NOT post SOMETHING, right? Last week was Gen Con, as we lie about on the air.  For this Microsode, we answer the NEWEST, the FRESHEST, the RIGHT OFF THE PRESSES letter - one sent in mere hours before we recorded! Amazing. So fresh and so clean clean. For those of you who couldn't be at Gen Con, next week's episode is a Trevor-edited recording of our Gen Con Live Episode! We hope it was a great success - at the time of this writing, we're still several days away from it, but we look forward to it with great anticipation. For those of you on The Letters Page Patreon,

You thought we weren't doing an episode this week, didn't you? Well, guess what... you're right! And yet, what's this?!?! Show Notes: Run Time: 6:58 Today is the first Tuesday of our two week of Gen Con hiatus. In today's Microsode, we answer the oldest question on the books! It's from a long-forgotten time - the distant and most ancient past. Wow! We look forward to seeing so many of you at Gen Con! Come say hi! As always, thank you for your continuing listenership and support, especially those of you subscribed to The Letters Page Patreon!

Our first ever Writers' Room episode! We're going to make a story together! Show notes: Run Time: 1:39:55 Only a couple minutes in, we claim we're getting right down to work... and then we goof around talking about cuts of steak or something. But then! We tell you what we're talking about, who's in the issue, and build the entire story of that issue out on the air! After a LOT of work, we take a fun assortment of questions, starting around the 1 hour and 15 minute mark. No episode next week or the week after, due to Gen Con. We hope to see as many of you there as possible!

Show Notes: Run Time: 1:11:01 At the start of the show, we talk a bit of shop about possibilities for new formats of episodes. At the time of recording, the votes weren't in yet for next month's episodes, but there are now! So: Upcoming schedule: Tuesday, August 6th: No Episode (Because Gen Con!) Tuesday, August 13th: Gen Con Live 2019! Tuesday, August 20th: Editor’s Note #33 Tuesday, August 27th: Episode #118 - All About SCRPG And here's our recording schedule! Around the 7 minute mark, we start in on your questions on so many topics, such as: Multiple OblivAeon-related questions! Void Guard Magic Sentinels of the Multiverse And that's not all! Thanks to all of you listeners, to our Patreon sup

We make stuff up - as we often do - but not really for Sentinel Comics! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:23:20 We build out the world (and even a bit of the meta-verse) for the Shear Force property, as introduced in episode 102.  We get into the overview just before the 4 minute mark, and there we get down to brass tacks about figuring about just what IS Shear Force. There's an animated show, and there are comics, but most importantly, there are toys. This all definitely hinges around toys. We get REALLY into it. In retrospect, this feels a lot like the conversations we had when we were first creating Sentinels of the Multiverse, but also very

Let's get villainous! Show Notes: Run Time: 59:09 After some mild goofs, we get into your questions, and you ask all the right things! Listen to learn more about so many villains we've never spoken about before, plus a decent handful that you're already familiar with!  

Good morning, everyone! Let's create Sentinel Comics content! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:37:31 This live episode was fun! It moved in a way that we didn't expect - we got into Sentinels of the Multiverse card game content! How? What? Impossible! Right? You'll just have to listen to find out! I don't want to say much more than that; I would hate to spoil the surprises.  Thanks to everyone who joined us live, and all of our supporters and listeners, like you!

We take your questions. We give you answers. You know the deal. Or do you? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:11:01 At the start of the show, we talk a bit of shop about possibilities for new formats of episodes. At the time of recording, the votes weren't in yet for next month's episodes, but there are now! So: Upcoming schedule: Tuesday, July 2nd: Episode #115 - Wraith’s Rogue Gallery Tuesday, July 9th: Episode #116 - Creative Process: Shear Force Tuesday, July 16th: Editor’s Note #32 Tuesday, July 23th: Episode #117 - First Ever Writer's Room! Tuesday, July 30th: A week off due to Gen Con! Then, at around the 12 minute mark, we get to your questions! We cover such exciting topics as: OblivAeon Time Traveling Characters Myriad

Remember, even this new team can't spell "Slaughterhouse" without the words "laughter". And also the word "louse", incidentally. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:06:46 We start off with some birthday talk, then some eyeball talk, like you do. Then, we actually do an overview just after the 5 minute mark! Don't worry, it's a VERY short overview. Then, we get right on to your questions at around 8 minutes in. Your questions cover the line-up of the team, including original members like Glamour, Re-Volt, Desert Eagle, and Ray Manta, and new teammates such as Hippo and Kismet! As always, thanks to all of our listeners, especially those of you on the Letters Page Patreon! Join us this Thursday at 10 AM, Central, for a live recording of this month's Editor's Note!

Let's talk more about these powerful heroes! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:10:07 This show is a follow-up to our longest episode ever! So, consider that required listening for what we're talking about here. Adam's eye is ruined and he'll never see again, or something like that. I might be exaggerating here. About 6 minutes into the episode, we go to questions, which are organized by character (after the first couple more general questions). We cover Dr. Medico, Mainstay, The Idealist, and Writhe, in that order. Thanks to our (unwitting) sponsor, TheWyrmSuperior! Of course, so many thanks to Trevor for the great editing and pro

Let's get MAGICAL! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:37:44 Let's answer a lot of questions about the how, what, and why of magic! And more! As of this posting, the next episode (all about Void Guard) has already been recorded due to this weeks convention, but feel free to send in questions for the other episodes for the month of June! Also, if you're at UK Games Expo this week, come by the Greater Than Games booth and say hi - Christopher will be there talking about all manner of games, though Adam is holding down the GTG fort in St. Louis and celebrating the tail end of his birth-month. As always, you can support The Letters Page via our Patreon. Thanks for listening!

An Editor's Note all about us being bad at Science! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:24:11 Here's the upcoming schedule! Tuesday, June 4th: Episode #112 - Void Guard Follow-Up Tuesday, June 11th: Episode #113 - The New Slaughterhouse Six Tuesday, June 18th: Editor’s Note #31 Tuesday, June 25th: Episode #114 - Create a Thing: LIVE! After only about 5 minutes of light goofs and scheduling, we get into your questions, which are mostly the very "well actuallies" we asked for. But we do have a secret surprise guest appearance in the second half of this Editor's Note! You'll just have to listen to find out more!

This episode is not just about death, it's also about failure! Creative failure! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:15:41 After only a minute or so of goofing around, we actually do a very brief overview section, just to get you all caught up on the when and a bit of the why of this story. But then! You have asked all the right questions, so we let the questions section handle the bulk of the actual storytelling. That starts at around the 4 minute mark. Just so you know, the storytelling ends up being highly non-chronological, but we actually really like it that way. Ends up putting stuff in order of weight and importance, rather than publication order. Thank you all to our listeners and supporters, especially those of you who support us on The Letters Page Patreon! Join us tomorrow, Wednesday,

Stories that NEVER HAPPENED?!!?!?!?!??! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:12:53 We get to your questions right away, before we even hit the 2 minute mark. And we tell SO MANY stories that never were.  Thank you to all of our listeners, especially our Patreon supporters! Get your questions for the Death of Anthony Drake (and anything else Prime Wardens related) in now!

Let's pick up the pace! Show notes: Run Time: 1:02:17 We get right into the story with this one, and actually have an Overview segment! It's been a while since we've had one of those. After telling the story of the Lightspeed limited series, we get to your questions at around the 30 minute mark. Thank you to all you wonderful folks who support the Letters Page Patreon! We couldn't do this without you. Catch ya next time!

We're gonna answer so many questions! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:21:16 We do a lot of goofing around before we get to the schedule, but here's the schedule! Tuesday, May 7th: Episode #109 - Development Hell: cancelled stories Tuesday, May 14th: Episode #110 - The Death (And Return) of Anthony Drake Tuesday, May 21st: Editor’s Note #30 Tuesday, May 28th: Episode #111 - Magic in the Multiverse And here's what our calendar looks like: You may note that the recording for Editor's Note #30 is happening on

What were these two up to as they transcended time and space?! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:00:32 We're a mess in this one, but it's probably still worth it! We goof around (and also explain why things are extra weird in this episode) for a few minutes before finally getting to explaining the purpose/angle of this episode, and then getting into your questions a bit after the 7 minute mark. The questions are full of interesting ideas and fascinating queries... to which we have some unsatisfactory answers... but also several cool stories you've never heard before! Overall, we end up giving away and revealing more in this episode than we'd even intended, so, well worth it. The future is yours! All of the <a href= "https://patreon.com/theletterspage" target="_blank" re

An episode in which we get into some real talk about one of our most powerful teams of heroes. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:05:34 With a minimum of banter - mostly due to the somber nature of today's undertaking - we get into the questions at the 2 minute mark. Speedy! Then, in response to the very first question, we tell the entire story of the Fall of the Prime Wardens, from before the prelude through the end of the arc, and in fact the end of the Prime Wardens book. So, essentially, we do an entire overview starting a bit after the 4 minute point, just as a drawn out answer to a question. After all of that, we get back to actually answering questions around 51 minutes in. Though we're certain there will be some follow-up questions for next month's Editor's Note. The final question of the day raises an excellent topic for a future episode that would hopefully put things back on their right path again. Can you fo

Let's "learn" about SCIENCE! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:29:37 Disclaimer! We are not scientists! Like, not really! That will become increasingly clear over the course of the episode! Even still, have fun! After a fairly standard amount of goofing around, we finally get into your questions, starting just before the 4 minute mark. Thanks to all of our listeners, especially our Patreon supporters! Catch you next week!

Let's talk about young Devra Caspit! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:10:23 In the first couple minutes, Adam and Christopher make a wager against Christopher's wishes, but I guess that kind of thing is binding? Then, we get into talking about Unity, what happened in her Day in the Life comic, and more! Around 12 minutes in, we get to your questions, which take up the rest of the episode. And what good questions they are! Thanks so much to all of you delightful listeners, and also to the very few of you who have chosen the path of undelightfulness - we support your decisions as well. Big thanks especially to our Patreon supporters. You make this all possible! We'

This Editor's Note has been released later in the day today, as we recorded it live this morning! Sorry for the delay, but we're all caught up now and back to our mostly regular schedule. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:11:19 Here's the upcoming schedule! Tuesday, April 2nd: Episode #105 - Science in the Multiverse Tuesday, April 9th: Episode #106 - Story Arc: Fall of the Prime Wardens Tuesday, April 16th: Episode #107 - Temporal Targets: Chrono-Ranger and La Capitan stories Tuesday, April 23rd: Editor’s Note #29 Tuesday, April 30th: Episode #108 - Story Arc: Lightspeed</l

Temporary Show Notes: Run Time: 57:57 This is the Myriad episode. A myriad of things are discussed (including a few spoilers if you haven't played the Urban Infestation one-shot)! -Trevor  

We make another thing LIVE! What kind of thing? Who knows?! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:23:15 OK, look, we've gotta stall for a while, so it's a few minutes into the episode before we actually get down to brass tacks, but then we start making stuff!  We recorded this live in front of the Letters Page Patreon supporters, with many of the Contributors in the chat - you'll hear some of their names, as they were an important part of the creative process! I don't want to spoil anything, so you'll just have to listen to the episode...   [spoilers incoming - don't look below this if you want to avoid spoilers!]   ...but I will give you this quick sketch that Adam did right after the episode: <p s

We're talking about a cowboy! Again! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:04:34 No overview, because we did that in an episode two years ago! For reference, check out Episode #25 all about Chrono-Ranger here. Then, we get to your questions and immediately go deep on literature, consciousness, reality... look, this one might get heavy. Besides, we have to talk about time stuff again, so, yeah. The questions cover a lot of Time-Slinger stories, telling you what he's up to now, and also drops a couple of major story elements, one of which no one knows but CON. A quick note about CON: both of us over the course of the episode use all kinds of pronouns for

Let's do an Editor's Note mostly about Sentinel Comics: the RPG related stuff! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:17:35 Hey, everyone! This was a fun one. Special thanks to all of the delightful Letters Page Patreon Contributors who were on Discord. Welcome back to Trevor! He's back to being our full time editor - we loved having Zach for those weeks, but it's also great to have Trevor back. Here's the upcoming schedule! Tuesday, March 5th: Episode #102 - Create a Thing Live Tuesday, March 12th: Episode #103 - Myriad Tuesday, March 19th: Editor's Note #28 Tuesday, March 26th: Episode #104 - Day in the Life: Unity <p

Let's hear YOUR stories! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:45:09 We're excited to get into our first official Sentinel Comics RPG timeline story! And it's one that many of YOU have played! After talking a bit about life and the SCRPG Kickstarter (currently happening!), we get into an actual overview a bit after the 4 minute mark! Important Note: this episode is FULL of spoilers for the SCRPG Starter Kit. If you don't want spoilers, walk away now. Save yourself! We go through each issue of the starter kit adventure, explaining it from our point of view that way we have a frame of refere

Time to talk about a heavy metal band! Also, they're bad guys! Show Notes: Run Time: 57:47 After only a few minutes of jokes, mouth music, and brief overviews, we get into the questions just before the 5 minute mark. Then we talk about this band! Here are the members of Helfyre, from left to right in the sketch above: Vocals: Screech Lead Guitar: Blister Bass Guitar: Deep Root Drums: Snare Pipe organ/Electronic Keyboard: Drudge Lots of great questions about these ridiculous villains. They're gonna rock you! But, like, not to sleep. To DEATH! But really, they're not killing their fans. Not actually. No profit in that. Don't forget! The Sentinel Comics RPG Kickstarter is still going on - <span style= "text-decoration: underline;"

Let's talk about the final five environments! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:13:08 OK, so right off the bat, we get it terribly wrong. We claim that the SCRPG Kickstarter is live. When this episode goes live, that's not the case. The Kickstarter goes live an hour after this episode launches. We just did a bad job at thinking about time when we recorded this episode. Go us. That said, if you're listening to this episode right when it goes live, the SCRPG Kickstarter will go live around the 1 hour mark of this episode! Moving right along, just before the 5 minute mark, we get into your questions, starting with questions about Champion Studios and San Alonso. At around the 23 minute mark, we start in on questions about Fort Adamant and everything going on there. A bit after 32 minutes in, we visit scenic Mordengrad! Such a lovely place. We dance with the goat! Then, just after the 41 minute mark, we take a trip to the

Who won the Listeners' Choice Awards? Everyone! Show Notes Run Time: 1:16:57 We announce the winners of Funniest Episode, Worst Episode, Best Audio Production Episode, and Best Storytelling Episode, as well as Funniest Question, Saddest Question, Best Fan Theory Question, and Most Revealing Question! Who won? You'll just have to listen to find out! After than, we talk about the upcoming schedule at just before the 35 minute mark. Here what we'll be talking about next month! Tuesday, February 5th: Episode #99 - Team Episode: Helfyre Tuesday, February 12th: Episode #100 - Starter Kit Stories: What happened in YOUR games? Tuesday, February 19th: Editor’s Note #27 Tuesday, February 26th: Episode #101 - Time-Slinger Here's a photo of our recording calendar: Fin

Let's talk about Ra... and friends! Show Notes: Run Time: 45:11 After breaking down the plot to some movie or other, we actually do an Overview section! Bringing it back! Telling you what happens in Baptism by Fire, since you've already heard what happens in the War of Heliopolis limited series, as well as the Horus of Two Horizons one-shot. Then, after a lot of issue-by-issue storytelling, we get to your questions just before the 25 minute mark. Thanks to everyone, including our Patreon supporters, our producer Trevor, our interim editor Zach, and most especially listeners like you! We hope to see you all on the Letters Page Patreon this coming Friday - January 18th

Arrr! It be pirate time, mateys! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:00:05 We get to questions right away and go through all of these scurvacious sailors of s...time? The first question of the day ends up going in depth on every member of the crew, so that takes up the majority of the episode, but also gives you pretty much everything you want! Enjoy! Many thanks to Zach Denoncour, our interim podcast editor! He's stepping in for Trevor for the next several weeks, and we're thrilled to have him aboard! Look forward to next time, when things really heat up!

We did tell you that there was no episode on January 1st. But, to be fair, you know that what we do on this podcast is tell lies. That said, this is not so much an episode. Just a quick hello and thank you. Looking forward to 2019. Thanks to all of you for being a part of it.

Happy Holidays from Sentinel Comics to all! Show Notes: Run Time: 41:13 We have a bunch of great questions today, so after only a few minutes of holiday lies, we get into those questions! And within those questions, we tell a few holiday tales. Enjoy! (Also, many thanks to Matthew Bender for his delightful dramatic reading! You'll know it when you hear it.) At the end of the episode, we finally reveal the schedule for January of 2019! Tuesday, January 1st: No episode! Tuesday, January 8th: Episode #96 - A Motley Crew: La Capitán’s Time-Displaced Teammates Tuesday, January 15th: Episode #97 - Story Arc: Baptism by Fire/War of Heliopolis/Horus of Two Horizons Tuesday, January 22nd: Editor's Note #26 Tuesday, January 29th: Episode #98 - Post-OblivAeon Obl

It's time for the Letters Page Listeners' Choice Awards nominations announcement! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:35:30 We have a special guest for this episode, and he makes the show even better! We spend the first portion of this recording discussing the recently announced awards. Once you've listened to all of that - including the most excellent question nominations - it's time to vote on your favorites! Check out the voting form here. After that, we SHOULD get to the schedule, but we're a week behind on that, so go to the Letters Page Patreon and vote on what episodes will start off 2019. So much voting! (The schedule for January 2019 will be ann

Let's talk about all the heroes from the OblivAeon Mission Deck! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:03:42 Only a few minutes of goofs and gags before we get to a brief overview! Then, just after the 4 minute mark, we're right on to your insightful and exhaustive questions! The first question goes through ALL of the mission deck heroes, so that takes up the bulk of the episode. The question after that asks about the Be The <a href= "https://sentinelswiki.com/index

From morally grey to just straight-up evil - what could go wrong?! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:21:27 After the usual goofing around at the beginning, in a shocking change of pace, we bring back the Overview! There, we do some setting explanation to help place what's going on here, both in the world - or Multiverse, rather - of Sentinel Comics and in the metaverse, as well. We also talk about both Rook Cities. Two? Yes, two. But more about one than the other. Then, we get to your questions right after the 12 minute mark. And, as has been the case with some recent episodes, we let the story happen bit by bit in the answers to your questions! Good questions, everyone. Right after the 1 hour and 2 minute mark, Christopher's voice changes to a much more gravelly version. Here's a peek behind the curtain: we lost about 10 minutes of audio from the original recording of this episode. Something weird happened and it was gone.

It's time for an episode about a pretty new team of villains from another era! Show Notes:  Run Time: 1:22:00 No overview today - it's straight to questions! No dilly-dallying, even! Right down to business! Our first question is from the creator of the Sentinel Comics Wiki. Hats off to him - that wiki is useful to lots of folks, including us!  We go on after that letter with its many illuminating questions to more great questions from great question writers! At the end of the episode, we mention the first annual 2018 Letters Page Podcast awards! More information in last week's Editor's Note, and <a href= "https://g

Time for another Editor's Note! Lots of fun and announcements here! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:23:48 First thing, after mild tomfoolery, we announce the first annual Letters Page Podcast Awards! Two categories, four awards each! Awards for Episodes Best Storytelling Episode Best Audio Production Episode Funniest Episode Worst Episode Awards for Questions Most Revealing Question Funniest Question Saddest Question Best Fan Theory Question Nominate episodes and questions using this form! Nominations are live until December 13th! Also, here's the upcoming schedule: Tuesday, December

A group of characters you know as heroes but in this other reality are far from it! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:22:51 After some brief goofs, we give a brief overview of the Inversiverse and what we're talking about specifically today. Then, we get right to your questions at only 6 minutes into the episode! Around the 14 minute mark, at the end of the first question, we get a request for pictures of each member of Perestroika for the upcoming episode. I put them on the Patreon, but available to not just Patreon supporters, but everyone! Check them out here. The second question takes us on a journey through the story of Seraph, who ends up being way cooler than anyone expected. Why are your expectat

Two of our favorite magical friends! Show Notes: Run Time: 50:20 Hey folks! We're into the new format, and we're still having fun and revealing things that we haven't said before, so that's great! After some nonsense times at the beginning, we get right into talking about where the stories we've told of these two land in the history of Sentinel Comics, plus also some other high-speed recapping!  That goes right up until it's time for your questions, about 8 minutes into the episode. After many delightful questions, we actually do a now-rare future section just after the 45 minute mark. And there's a notable reveal there! We've already done some restructuring over on The Let

It's time for some terror! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:07:21 OK, we do start off pretty silly, but don't worry, we get to questions in the first few minutes, and then we are very serious and very scary. No, that's not true, the first few minutes of questions are still silly. But then! A scary story! In fact, spoilers, if you don't like scary stories, you probably want to skip the tale from roughly the 7 minute mark to just before 38 minutes in.  And then, on to more questions and stories! Near the end of the episode, we talk about the arts that Adam has been doing and posting on his Twitter this month. They're all here on the Sentinel Wiki! This is the last episode of October, so we read ALL of the names for the last time! Also, restructuring of <span sty

Big stuff in this update! Letters Page AND OblivAeon! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:55:58 We start off by talking about this very podcast! First, the format of the show itself: we'll be recording every Friday (barring scheduling conflicts) and we'll be putting out episodes on Tuesdays. This includes Editor's Notes, which will be recorded live for all Patreon supporters. Also, Extrasodes are going the way of the fondly remembered Interludes. Farewell, Extrasodes! Focusing this show down to the key elements. Each month, we'll have an episode every Tuesday, with the exception of the second to the last Tuesday of the month, which will be an Editor's Note. Makes sense? Good! Next up, we cover the way that you can be a part of The Letters Page and support the show! The Letters Page Patreon is getting boiled down just to the important stuff as well. Thus, starti

When the heroes are down and out, what's going on? Show Notes: Run Time: 2:34:06 We're talking about every single hero character card twice over, plus every Vengeance/VotM villain character card, so we have a lot to cover today. As a result, we get right down to business! Just before the 2 hour mark, we finally get to the villain character cards. Whew! So many cards! At around two hours and 13 minutes in, we answer some questions! Your questions, in fact! We've got an important Editor's Note coming up in two days - this Thursday, we do our OblivAeon follow-up Editor's Note, in which we also talk about how the Letters Page (and the associated Patreon) is changing! See you then!

Who sounds like whom? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:39:09 The final Extrasode! Going out with a bang! This is a pretty interesting look at how we think about a lot of our characters. But, starting next month, no more Extrasodes. The time of the Extrasode has come to an end. More on that topic in next week's Editor's Note. (Which is being recorded live today at 11 AM Central - anyone on our Patreon can watch that live recording!) We go through a bunch of casting for well over an hour (with unexpected help from the Irreplaceable Taffyman), and then we get to a few questions starting around an hour and 23 minutes in. SPOILERS INCOMING! We recommend that you listen to the audio to learn who we would love to cast in each role, but here's a list (with a few post-recording notes): <span style= "font-w

Two shows and two movies! All totally real! (Note: this is yet another lie.) Show Notes: Run Time: 2:17:59 We're excited to finally be getting back to the animated series for this episode! Lots to get through here. We start right off with season 1 of the Prime Wardens show. Around 29 minutes in, we get into the two movies after finishing the Prime Wardens show. Both movies! Two of them.  Then, just before 41 minutes in, we finally dive into the Dark Watch show, which takes a good deal longer than anything else. We clearly went a bit overboard on this part, but we were inspired! Finally, we get to a few questions at the 2 hour and 6 minute mark. More exciting episodes coming soon! Plus, if you're at the Contributor level on the Patreon, you'll be able to join us this Thursday morning for a live recording of a bit Editor's Note (which will be released in audio form next week). See you then!

The final Baron Blade story of the Multiverse! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:12:01 Sure, we are still the fools that mess around for the first few minutes of the episode, but then we get right down to the story! And what a story!! We go through all 12 issues of the Burying the Blade limited series, though not in a page-by-page way, so much as a "telling all the story" method.  Just before the 37 minute mark, we use the long-lost spoilers tag! There is spoilery stuff in here for the OblivAeon story, so if you want to avoid that info for a bit more, skip from there to the questions section! Speaking of which, we get to your questions just after the 45 minute mark. We'll be recording this month's Extrasode live on this Thursday morning, so if you're a <a href= "https://patreon.com/theletterspage" target="_blank"

We take another stab at making a live story element! What are we going to make? We have no idea. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:24:10 This episode is all over the place, as we intentionally did no planning, letting our creative process take us where it would... and it turned out pretty interesting! Listen on to discover a bit of world building as we craft it. (After we spend the first 6 minutes stalling...) We get to live questions right around the one hour and 12 minute mark. These are all questions from the Discord chat, as questions couldn't have been written in for a topic that no one could predict! At the end, we mention briefly that we're looking at doing some Patreon restructuring, which we are going to be doing at the end of October! This will be the last month of Patreon working the way it currently does - next month, it'll be different! We'll be talking more about that over the course of this month.

The end of the end... or is it? Show Notes: Run Time: 2:14:02 We get right down to the brassiest of tacks! And it's a good thing, too - there's plenty to talk about, still! We get to your questions about an hour and 27 minutes in. Thank you all for listening through the end of the Multiverse! Catch you next month for the very episodes for which you voted!

An Editor's Note for between the two OblivAeon episodes! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:01:10 We answer questions NOT about the OblivAeon episodes! However, we will be talking about those in the next Editor's Note! IMPORTANT NOTE! The morning that this episode is released, we'll be doing a live recording of a "create a story live" episode! It's happening, today, September 20th at 11 AM Central! The live showing will be viewable by everyone on the Patreon! Come join in! Here's the upcoming schedule: Tuesday, October 2nd: Episode #85: Create a Story Live! (Recording today!) Tuesday, October 9th: Episode #86: Story Arc: Burying the Blade Tuesday, October 16th: Episode #87: SCAUniverse, Phase Two (Part 2)</li

It's officially the beginning of the end. Show Notes Run Time: 2:16:09 We jump right into the story, not wasting too much time messing around as we often do. And! You get to hear hints of some new music! What could this music be? Only time will tell. Initially, we go through snapshots of various events that lead up to OblivAeon. But, as we get deeper into the OblivAeon story, we zoom in more and more.  That said, it's half an hour into the episode before OblivAeon finally reaches Earth. And by that point, there have already been two major character deaths. Yikes! Just past an hour and 51 minutes in, we get to some of your OblivAeon questions. More coming next week! Upcoming cool event: on Thursday morning of this very week, we'll be doing a live stream for all of our <a href= "https://

The end of the beginning of the end. Or is it the beginning of the end of the beginning? Show Notes: Run Time: 2:03:17 We start with important info: don't listen to this episode. That is, if you don't have OblivAeon yet, we think you should wait. Now, if you're cool about spoilers, then go for it. But there's a few big things in this episode, and it's only going to get worst as the month progresses. That said, we're shipping out more and more copies of OblivAeon every day, so you will have it soon! So, after some chatting and disclaiming, we get into the overview of the scions' stories just before the 5 minute mark. And we start with a bunch of stuff about OblivAeon's backstory, in fact! This episode starts off FAST! After going through all of the scions, we get to your questions - following the same structure as the scion overview - at around 44 minutes into the episode. I'm not going to say more in these show note

The most ill-advised episode ever. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:28:25 As we quickly realize, us formulating and planning out ways to destroy the world or take over all the people or anything along those lines... makes for a pretty dark episode. We're definitely going on some watch lists now. That said, a lot of the episode is caught up in arguing semantics and logistics. This is why supervillains frequently work alone. If they did work together, they'd be more likely to make a podcast or a bunch of games. For those of you on the Letters Page Patreon, tomorrow morning the voting will go up for what episodes we will create next month! The topic submission stuff is up now, but today's the last day to submit topics that we'll look at for next month. Get ready to vote on September 7th!

Let's talk about... EVERYTHING. Show Notes: Run Time: 3:03:21 This episode is the most info-dump episode we've ever done, but it's all gotta get out there. We're doing a lot of connecting the dots between stories we've told across all of the episodes leading up to this one. But there's still lots of story to be found here! We jump right into it, digging in hard to the year by year of Sentinel Comics, since the beginning of the Golden Age.  Not really a lot to say in the show notes that we're not saying in the episode - we go through it all! You're just going to have to listen to find out more! After 2 grueling hours and 16 arduous minutes of overview, we finally get to your questions. As promised just after the 2 hour and 49 minute mark: Brian, here's that cover! We have a brief futu

It's time for another Editor's Note that is turns out to be mostly about more shipping! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:25:24 The September Schedule! Tuesday, September 4th: Multiverse Recap Thursday, September 6th: Extrasode #6 - Christopher and Adam make up doomsday plots Tuesday, September 11th: Scions Tuesday, September 18th: OblivAeon, part 1 Tuesday, September 25th: OblivAeon, part 2 Thursday, September 27th: Editor's Note #22 And here's the photo of the calendar on our wall! You'll note that we're recording the first couple episodes for October well before the end of September. Adam's going to be out of town at the end of September/beginning of October, so we've got to get ahead on the recording schedule. For our Patreon supporters, the topic submission

This is a big one... in a lot of ways. But well worth it for what's to come. Show Notes: Run Time: 3:11:29 You read that run time correctly - this episode is over 3 hours. However! It is only our second longest episode, losing to the Southwest Sentinels/Void Guard episode by 7 minutes! That said, we cover a TON of stuff in this episode, so let's get right down to it! We start off by going through the meta-verse of the publication company of Sentinel Comics. What led to the Mist Storm Universe? How was it handled and published in the world that Sentinel Comics were real actual comics? Who wrote these books and why? What sorts of decisions were made? We get INTO IT. After revealing all that, including a name of a comics line that we've never said publicly before, we finally get into actually talking about the stories and timelines of the Mist Storm Universe at around 24 minutes in. So! Then! Just after the one

We had a great time playing the Sentinel Comics RPG on Twitch in July, and this Extrasode is all about how that went! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:12:20 We recommend you watch the live streams before listening to this episode. Here they all are! At the beginning, we talk about the stuff that Christopher and Adam have wanted to talk about this whole time but have not gotten a chance to go over yet, as the veil of secrecy between the GM and the players had to be maintained! But now, the fetters are loosed, and the talking commenced! Then, around 18 minutes in, we get to your questions. We finish with questions and wrap up with some discussion about what comes next just after the 1 hour and 5 minute mark. See you this coming Tuesday for an episode abou

Let's pause on talking about fake comic book and talk about fake cartoons instead! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:18:13 We covered Phase One of the Sentinel Comics Animated Universe in Episode 64 - now we're back to talk about Phase Two, but there's way too much to cover in a single episode if we're going to keep going into the contents of EVERY episode... and we want to keep going into all that! Thus, this episode is JUST about Season Two of the Freedom Five animated show. We will do a Part 2 episode when you fine folks on the Patreon vote on it, which I imagine will happen shortly! We get right into all of that, right off the bat, and then about five minutes in, we dig into the first episode of the season! Around the 1 hour and 43 minute mark, we get to your qu

We had a thrilling Gen Con! And now, you get to listen in on how at least a couple hours of that show went for us! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:00:35 We had an exciting musical guest this year: Jean-Marc Giffin! He's the composer behind all of the music for the Sentinels of the Multiverse video game by Handelabra, and lots of other great music as well! If you're one of our Patreon supporters, there will be a post on the Patreon later today with the music files for Jean-Marc's versions of the Letters Page songs, along with the original files for those songs, as we've never released them before and thought that now might be a good time. The bulk of this episode is Q&A, though we do have

We just got back from Gen Con last night, and wow are we tired!  We are very eager to get back to recording, but for now, enjoy this tiny tinysode! Catch you next time!

We're at Gen Con doing setup and getting ready, so - as previously announced - there's no episode this week! And yet, we still recorded a minute and a half of explanation, just to tide you over. Thanks for listening, everyone! We're eager to return to our normal(ish) schedule soon! -Christopher and Adam and Trevor and everyone else at GTG

An Editor's Note just before we head off to Gen Con! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:28:01 Here's the schedule for July! Tuesday, August 7th: We're on Break! Tuesday, August 14th: Gen Con 2018 Live! Tuesday, August 21st: Episode #79 - Sentinel Comics Animated Series: Phase 2 Thursday, August 23rd: Extrasode #5 - Sentinel Comics RPG Live Steams Recap and Discussion Tuesday, August 28th: Episode #80 - The Incoming Storm: Mist Storm Universe from the end of OblivAeon to the beginning of Prime War Thursday, August 30th: Editor's Note #21 And a photo of the calendar on our wall! (It doesn't say that the month is August... but it is.) Topics covered in today's episode: Citizen Dawn and the Citizens of the Sun Young Legacy <li

We made a radio play! It turned out pretty dang awesome! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:07:57 Just listen to the episode! It's got a lot going on. All of the voices in the radio play are either Adam or Christopher, other than Ruby, who was voiced by the talented and most excellent Heather Reusz! Around the 40 minute mark, we get to your questions! This Thursday is this month's Editor's Note! Next week is Gen Con! We're excited to see you - and record an episode with you - there!

Let's talk about looooove. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:19:00 A strange change in format today: after some mild preamble, we start of by getting into your questions, just before the 5 minute mark! Then, we spend over a third of the episode on a single letter... The questions cover the vast majority of the things we wanted to talk about today, so enjoy the process of us keeping up with you fine folks! Spoilers: At around an hour and 9 minutes in, we talk about a Biomancer story. A bit of the recording was lost here, but the thing we talked about that didn't make it into the episode is that, after her death, the body of the woman we mention is enshrined in Biomancer's lair, and sometimes he makes fleshchildren to look like her, but he always destroys them because he cannot match her perfectio

We go out to explore SPAAAAAAACE!! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:21:51 Right off the bat, we mention that the day this episode goes live, we're doing another live stream of the Sentinel Comics RPG! Come join us on our Twitch channel! We then mention that our Patreon Collectors and Contributors can submit topics for August now. Check out this Patreon post about it! At the two minute and 45 second mark, Adam realizes what we should name this episode. And lo, that is what the episode is now named. Let it be written. Then, we fina

First things first: we're not lawyers and no one should ever take our advice! That aside, we're gonna give advice anyway! Show Notes: Run Time: 57:15 We start off with a bunch of disclaimers, because boy howdy are we NOT lawyers. Then, we jump right into the lies. The questions begin at five and a half minutes in. Join us next week for an episode about EVERYTHING SPAAACE!!!    

Diving deeply into 6 comic book issues! Run Time: Show Notes: 1:20:23 We start off by raving about a game we've been playing a lot lately... you'll just have to listen to find out! Then, once we get down to brass tacks, as they say, we talk about a bunch of other comic books before we can even get to Dark Watch #1. But then, we do! And wow are there some twists and turns! Around 47 minutes into the episode, we read your letters to you! On Thursday of this week, we've got another Extrasode coming your way! We've already recorded it, and it's a weird one, but no Il Alimento, certainly. Whew!  Keep on saving the Multiverse!

An entirely new team of heroes! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:25:33 We start right in on the backstories of the heroes who will become the team Daybreak! Starting with: Rockstar Muse Headlong Aeon Girl Muerto Around 42 minutes in, we get to your questions! Lots of good questions about the characters. At an hour and 14 minutes in, we get a question that leads to talking about the Principles of each of the members of Daybreak. Another Sentinel Comics LIVE show today! Come watch us on our Twitch channel at 1:00, Central time!

An episode about America's Newest Legacy! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:17:20 (Sorry about this one being 12 hours late - we ran into a technical issue this morning and had to do a bunch of extra work today to get this one up. Thanks for bearing with us, everyone!) We begin with the history of Pauline Parsons in Sentinel Comics, starting with her first appearance in the '50s! We go on from there through the rest of her appearances, and how her story - and the story of the Legacy line - change across the decades of publication history. Even given all that, we are treading Legacy stories you're at least somewhat familiar with, for the most part, so it's only a bit after the 23 minute mark that we get to your questions! And we start off with a "song". Yeah. Let's go with "song". A little after an hour into the pod

An Extrasode about how story and mechanics work together in Sentinel Comics games! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:01:27 Another extrasode attended live by our Patreon Contributors! Do you want to be a part of our next live recording! Join us on the Letters Page Patreon! We officially move on to the submitted questions around the 17 minute mark, though we answer a couple questions from the live chat before that. Finally, after we have talked about all manner of story and mechanics interactions, we talk about the near future of Sentinel Comics - and I'm not talking about the stories from the comic books. Around an hour and 50 minutes in, we explain the plans for OblivAeon, the Letters Page, the Sentinel Comics RPG, and more. The

EXPLOSIONS! POUCHES! LOUD NOISES! It's time to get EXTREME!!! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:52:54 EXTREME! Today's episode is so ridiculously off the chain. There are also lots of actual chains.  We tell a bunch of EXTREME stories. It gets BRUTAL. This isn't your DAD'S episode! Really, buckle in, kids - things are about to get WICKED SICK. In the first ten minutes of the episode, we knock out one of the most BADASS stories you've ever heard... and we're just getting started! We get to your TOTALLY BADICAL questions just before an hour in. EXTREME!!!

How do the heroes and villains do what they do?! Let's dig into that! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:24:26 We start off with an overview section that's based on the character creation system from the upcoming Sentinel Comics RPG! We go through each of the "Power Sources" from that system and talk about how they relate to the rest of Sentinel Comics.  Around 30 minutes in, we get to your questions, which end up being the bulk of the episode! This week, we're recording 3 episodes again, as Christopher is out of town next week for Origins. (If you're there, come say hi!) On Thursday, we'll be recording the X-treme Verse episode! On Friday morning at 11 AM Central, we'll be recording the Story M

A story of the Dawn! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:47:18 We get deep into a major story from the history of Sentinel Comics Right off the bat - after only a few minutes of tomfoolery - we kick off this whole event with the story of Freedom Five #595. Then, we dig into each and every issue of Freedom Five and the also the weekly limited series that are all part of the Sunrise event. Around an hour and 15 minutes in, we get to your questions. In a couple days, we'll release an Editor's Note with the upcoming schedule for June! Got questions for us? Submit them here! Want to be a part of the Letters Page? You've got options over on our

A world where the heroes are villains and the villains are heroes! Wacky! But then, these foes don't look so much "wacky" as they do "actually really evil"... Show Notes: Run Time: 1:40:37 We get right into it, which is good, because we have a lot to cover today! In the 3rd minute of the podcast, Adam claims that by 1988, the movie The Land Before Time had been released some time ago. Turns out, it was actually released November 18, 1988. So, pretty close! Then, we get into the Disparation stories set in the Inverse Universe. Around fifteen minutes in, we introduce the team of ne'er-do-wells pictured above. Villainous! Just before the 44 minute mark, we start talking about how the Inverted Universe starts talking about how these stories in issues of Disparation change the future of Dispar

We create something without any preparation! Will we make a hero? A villain? An environment? Something else entirely? We don't know yet! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:47:26 We recorded this episode live with the help of our Patreon Contributors! The episode is much better than the live recording, as Trevor has cleaned up the audio and also cut a bunch of dead time when we were just reading the chat and things like that. Still, if you want, you can watch the live video here. Want to be a part of our future live episodes? Check out our Patreon! After some explanation and laying of ground rules, we start our collaborative brainstorming about 4 minutes in. Around the 22 minute mark, we finally figure out what

Delving back into Disparation stories! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:15:06 Who are these people? Where do they come from? What is their story? Listen on to find out! After a few minutes of goofs and introductions, we get into the actual content of Disparation, Vol. 1, Issue 24! Just before the 38 minute mark, we get to your questions! This Friday, we'll be recording our "Behind the Scenes" episode, which will release next Tuesday. But for those of you on our Patreon, you'll get the video of the experience by the end of day Friday! And if you're a Contributor-level supporter of the Patreon, you'll get to watch and participate LIVE!

"Il Alimento" Episode #192 Show Notes: Run Time: 1:18:30 Our fourth annual Pasta episode. Chef Adam and Chef Christopher discuss pasta sauces, vegetables in pasta, and address the gnocchi controversy. They also answer questions from Il Alimento subscribers, and even read a few celebrity chef letters. Eat well, my friends. “Under The Sun of Italy” by Rossano Gentili Various Spanish Guitar Riffs by SoundSeq Studio Bouzouki Music by Hamza Zeytinoglu “Christopher & Adam Reading Letters To You” composed and performed by Anthony Badell

We're back to the very beginning! Revisiting the Legacy story from our very first episode. (This art is the pencils Adam did in 2010 for Legacy which were then scanned in and inked and colored to make Legacy's first character card art! Adam will probably hate that I used this art, but it's good to see your roots.) Show Notes: Run Time: 1:28:45 We start off by talking about the weirdness that is this coming Thursday's Extrasode.  Then, just before 6 minutes in, we finally get into the history of Sentinel Comics portion of the episode that takes up the bulk of the overview. After all that, around 36 minutes in, we get to your questions! Right off the bat, 40 minutes in, we get a question about where the heck do Legacy's powers come from. AND WE ANSWER IT. FULLY AND HONESTLY. SURPRISE. At the h

Another live-recorded Editor's Note! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:09:14 I'd recommend listening to the podcast over watching the video, as the audio quality is MUCH better, and Trevor does a great job with editing and producing. But here's the video! Upcoming Schedule: Tuesday, May 1st: Legacy Supplemental Thursday, May 3rd: Food Extrasode Tuesday, May 8th: Disparation: Freedom Five Tuesday, May 15th: Behind the Scenes Storytelling Tuesday, May 22nd: Disparation: Inverted Universe Thursday, May 24nd: Editor's Note #18 Tuesday, May 29th: Story-arc: Sunrise Get your Legacy and Food Extrasode questions in now!

A whole book of creepy crawlies and the evil that lurks in the darkness! (No, not the book in that picture. A different book.) Show Notes: Run Time: 1:46:28 Lots of fun stories and mythology in this one! We start off with where this book shows up in the history of Sentinel Comics. Pretty quickly, we get to your questions! Just after 6 minutes in, we're already going into the Questions segment, and we use that to guide the stories from the Diamond Book of Monsters. And then, A bit after the 10 minute mark, we're in on our first long-form story of this episode. Buckle-up! After wrapping that up, we dive into another long story, starting a bit before the 28 minute mark. Zoom! Then, we get into more question and answer type stuff, but we do reveal a lot more mythology

Let's get animated! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:29:40 There is a lot of stuff in this episode! The first season of the SCAU (Sentinel Comics Animated Universe) is made up of 26 episodes and a movie, and we get into ALL of that! We talk about the episodes for over an hour, going pretty in-depth on many of them. At around an hour and 28 minutes, we start in on the movie. Then, at the one hour and 51 minute mark, we get to your questions. Also! A future section, about two hours and 21 minutes in! Voting on topics for May is up now on the Patreon! Vote and help decide what happens next on The Letters Page!

The dread scion! It only exists to exercise the will of OblivAeon! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:20:24 We start off with an overview of when and how Progeny first showed up in the pages of Sentinel Comics, starting with the Freedom Five book. Just before the 18 minute mark, we briefly get back into the debate of "does Progeny's head blasting off into space look cool." Spoilers: there is no real resolution to this argument. Just after 19 minutes in, we get to the Progeny origin story, which is told in the pages of Prime Wardens, Vol. 2, after that first Progeny story. Then, just after the 24 minute mark, Progeny goes to space! A cool K.N.Y.F.E. and Captain Cosmic story is told. We start in on your questions 30 minutes into the episode. Don't forget, the Sentinels of Freedom video g

The first ever Extrasode!  Show Notes: Run Time: 2:14:54 These were intended to be for Patreon supporters only, but we polled them, and they voted overwhelmingly in favor of making them available to all Letters Page listeners! That said, we did record it live with interactions from our Contributors, and then shortly after recording it, we posted this video for Patreon backers, so they got it first! Now, the episode goes live for everyone! This Extrasode is probably more serious than most will be, but it's still a lot of fun. We go deep into the history of how we met, how we starting making stuff together, and how that ended up being Sentinels of the Multiverse and Greater Than Games! Christopher is at PAX East right now, and Adam is about to fly to the UK! If you're at PAX East, find Christopher and

We're talking about these so familiar and yet so different heroes! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:21:26 Welcome to April, and a whole new format! The next 3 months will feature different types of episodes than what you're used to, but they're going to be great! Interested in having input in what we talk about? Check out our Patreon! That's the best way to get involved in what we're doing here with the Letters Page. We jump around in time a bit to start off, but then! We actually lay out the history of a book we've only hinted at before and never directly quoted or defined: Disparation! Disparation Volumes 1 and 2, at that! Then, after telling all that backstory and even

Our first ever live recorded Editor's Note! Here's the video! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:07:42 OK, first thing first: the video quality is AWFUL. But! We're working with Trevor to make it better in the future! As we mention in the first few minutes, we didn't yet know the upcoming schedule when we recorded, but since then, the voting has concluded! Here is the final tabulation of all three polls combined: Progeny: 96 Legacy supplemental: 23 Story Arc: Trial of Baron Blade: 33 Animated Series Season 1: 43 Disparation: The alternate Dark Watch shown on “Quando? Ahora!”: 72 Wraith supplemental: 8 NightMist’s little black book of monsters - extraplanar,  extraterrestrial, and extra weird things she encounters: 45 Story Arc: S

One of the most terrible villains of the Multiverse is here! Tremble before Grand Warlord Voss, Earthlings! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:13:34 We get right into it by talking about the first appearances of Thorathians in the history of Sentinel Comics. Then, we jump to the 60s to introduce Grand Warlord Voss himself! After that, the next divergence is talking about space stuff - the space race, space exploration, and the wonders of space as a genre, so to speak. Then, finally, we actually get to the origin and backstory ofRainek Kel'Voss! Which takes a while. About as much time as everything leading up to that. Reasonably! Just after 35 minutes in, we get to the mid-80s, and stuff starts getting intense. Big stories. Big meta-information. Big reveals. Everything's big. Whew! What a wild ride! OK, r

A team that is sometimes extreme, but is always awesome. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:54:19 Our Patreon is running smoothly already, thanks to so many of you! As a result, this week, we'll be recording our upcoming Editor's Note LIVE for those of you at our Contributor level. Afterwards, the video will be posted for our supporters over on the Patreon.  Anyway! Prime Wardens! We start off by digging into some of the specific dates of the history of Sentinel Comics - we use the historical landmarks of where these heroes came from as a framework for the bulk of this episode. This is by far our most historically accurate episode. Starting just after the 12 minute mark, we zoom in on the story of the very first Prime Wardens

The long-awaited episode for one of the first heroes from Sentinel Comics! Show Notes: Run Time: 3:29:10 Our longest episode yet! It is astounding to me that an episode about one character ended up longer than our previous longest episode, the Southwest Sentinels/Void Guard episode, about 4 characters who make up two teams with major changes in there. But, then again, hardly surprising that Tempest takes so long to cover - really speaks to just how much is going on in the Tempest story. We cover the three major phases of Tempest's life: From origin through Vengeance Post-Vengeance through Vengeance: Returned Prime Wardens #1, Vol. 2 through OblivAeon There are lots of things going on in each of those phases, but that's a fair way to break up the stories of Tempest. Be sur

One way or another, all of these environments house some great power... let's talk about them! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:42:54 We dig into the last of the environments - they only sort of go together in this episode, but they're all important parts of Sentinel Comics! Insula Primalis Ruins of Atlantis Magmaria Fort Adamant Omnitron IV Lots of cool story bits for each of those places! Next week is the long-awaited Tempest episode! Get your questions in using the submission form by end of day Thursday, March 8th! Aaaand, finally: our Patreon is now live! Go check it out</

One of the most important heroes of Sentinel Comics is also one of its most terrible villains. Today, we cover the Fall of Legacy. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:50:40 In the first few minutes - after a bit of nonsensical side-tracking - we get right into the appearances of Iron Legacy in the history of Sentinel Comics. With that, we also tell some of the historical elements of the Young Legacy story, as that's a necessary part of the story setup. And then, things start getting really spread out. Good thing we've got your questions to help figure everything out! We get into your Iron Legacy questions right around the fifteen minute mark. We cover how Iron Legacy can be "stronger" than Legacy, various art elements, what's going on with other heroes and villains in the Iron Legacy timelines, and even more odd food anal

An Editor's Note about Time and Space! Run Time: 1:12:33 Upcoming Schedule: Tuesday, March 6th: More Settings: Insula Primalis, Ruins of Atlantis, Magmaria, Fort Adamant, Omnitron-IV Tuesday, March 13th: Tempest Tuesday, March 20th: Prime Wardens Tuesday, March 27th: Grand Warlord Voss Thursday, March 29th: Editor's Note #16 We cover two primary categories of topics in this episode: TIME and SPACE! Time Cataclysm Shattering of the Timelines Time travel CON Chrono-Ranger La Capitan Silver Gulch Final Wasteland Outside Time Wagner Mars Base The Apollo Missions Captain Cosmic Infinitor Judge Mental Dok'Thorath Bloodsworn Colosseum Greazer Fashion Lifeline Also, at the very end of this month,

Lots of Fake News in this episode. Where is it all coming from? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:42:15 Let's go back to the 50s! This episode starts with story from very early on, and then works its way up through the end, slowly but surely. After fifteenish minutes of establishing backstory and world stuff and some goofs, we get into the villainous stuff. Then, we spend a bunch of time in the aughts! I don't want to spoil too much in the show notes - you'll just have to listen to find out what happens! A bit before the hour mark, we get into your questions! We get into fan-saltiness around the 1 hour and 25 minute mark. A lot of questions and stories lead up to this, but the fan backlash due to the Sentinel Comics choices resonates with us strongly. We've all been there! In a couple days,

Parse has keen arrows, but a far more keen eye! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:30:53 We don't spend any time dillying or dallying in this episode! In fact, this may be most "content per minute" episode we've ever done - just jam-packed with the story of Parse through the years of Sentinel Comics! We start off in the 80s, including a bunch of information on how various titles are being treated then, laying the groundwork for Parse's origin. Just after the 6 minute mark, we mention that the Iron Legacy and Alternate Realities/Timelines episode is coming up on the recording block in a few days - get your questions in now! Around 12 minutes in, we introduce a character we've never talked about before... and within a couple minutes, you learn why he's never come up before. The high-speed rate of reveals continu

The most settings ever covered in one episode! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:11:34 This episode is all about the weird and magical environments from the world of Sentinel Comics! Madame Mittermeier's Fantastical Festival of Conundrums and Curiousities Tomb of Anubis Realm of Discord Nexus of the Void Temple of Zhu Long An important note: There are a few spoilers in this episode for the story of the issues included in the Sentinel Comics RPG Starter Kit. If you want to avoid a minor spoiler, skip from 1:31:20 to 1:32:04. From 1:43:45 to just before 1:48, we do get into a few more notable story spoilers, so listen at your own peril. Or skip that chunk of time, if you want to experience the story in play. We specifically mention incoming spoilers, so you have at least a heads up. As much as this is a settings episode all about environments, this episode also c

She's a smoooooth operator! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:12:59 New intro on today's episode! Trevor's trying out something different! What do you think? Tweet at us and let us know: @SCLettersPage After some light silliness, we get right into her not-very-light backstory.  We reference two other episodes a few times in this episode: the Mister Fixer episode, and The Chairman episode. They're both important to this one, so worth giving a quick listen to, though we do rehash a lot of the important points from both of those episodes.

The first Editor's Note of 2018! Run Time: 56:49 Upcoming Schedule: Tuesday, February 6th: Supernatural Settings: Madame Mittermeier's Fantastical Festival of Conundrums and Curiosities, Tomb of Anubis, Realm of Discord, Nexus of the Void, Temple of Zhu Long Tuesday, February 13th: Parse Tuesday, February 20th: Miss Information Thursday, February 22nd: Editor's Note #15 Tuesday, Feb 27th: Iron Legacy Timeline & Alternate Timelines/Realities Topics of today's Editor's Note: Space Settings Coffee GRUUM YELLING Urban Settings Poverty Megalopolis Akash'Flora Creating Stuff New Environments?

All of the wibbly-wobbly places! Times? Both! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:01:25 In this episode, we cover the particularly time-travel related environments from the world of Sentinel Comics: Silver Gulch The Final Wasteland Time Cataclysm Outside Time For each of those locations (times?!), we first give an overview, and then use your questions to dig deeper into the stories of that setting. Next week, we'll be talking all about The Operative, so get your questions in now!

You didn't even know that you wanted an episode on an intergalactic bounty hunter, and yet, here we are! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:23:43 In the first five minutes, we devolve into roleplaying as our own characters, so that sets the tone for this entire episode. You're welcome? After that, we get to Hero in the Arena #1, the true first appearance of Greazer. But the bulk of today's overview segment is the discussion of the book "Greazer", which we go over page-by-page of the first few issues. The secret history of Greazer Clutch! 45 minutes into the episode, we get to your questions! During those questions, we realize that tomorrow is the 1 year anniversary of The Letters Page! Hooray! Space Champagne for everyone! Then, just after the one hour and 18 minute mark, we wrap up by talking about

An episode that towers head and shoulders above all others! Or does it stand as an ant among giants? Only you can tell! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:20:17 We start off by confessing our sins and solving a notable problem... or at least hinting to that problem's solution. But that allows us to move forward with Portja Kip-Pro's story! (Which we start by pointing out a problem raised by the Kaargra Warfang episode, and then solving it. We're problem solvers!) But then we're back on track! Stories include, Hero in the Arena, Under Cover, the Return of Vengeance, and so much more! Then, we get into your question 33 minutes in. Lots of interesting info in the questions, today! Next week is Greazer! Get your questions in now!

Happy New Year! Starting off this new year with a quick 2017 retrospective! First thing first, we're pushing the schedule we announced last week back by one week in order to take a chunk of time to reset and reconcile all of the tangled webs we have weaved. Woven. Woved.  Anyway! The upcoming schedule now looks like this! January 9th: Sky-Scraper January 16th: Greazer January 23rd: Time Travel Settings - Silver Gulch, Final Wasteland, Time Cataclysm, Outside Time January 25th: Editor's Note #14 January 30th: The Operative Thank you all for being such a big part of what we do here.

We talk about the Cosmic Contest and nothing else At the end of the episode, we talk about the winner See you next year!

To celebrate Boxing Day, let's talk about the fighters in the cosmic arena! (Yes, yes, we know that Boxing Day has nothing to do with the pugilistic sport of boxing.) Show Notes: Run Time: 1:07:06 After only a couple minutes of jawing about the holidays, your intrepid hosts get right into the history of the Bloodsworn Colosseum in the pages of Sentinel Comics. Around the twelve minute mark, we finally tell an integral part of the Tony Taurus story. Then, on to more and different tales of the Bloodsworn! We start in on your questions a few minutes before the half hour mark. And we start off with a true and proper backstory! And then, around the 34 minute mark, we talk about a thing we messed up. A few minutes before the hour mark, we tell the backstory of a character you've seen before, but neve

Let's talk about all manner of places in the Sentinel Comics galaxy! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:45:33 In today's episode, we cover a few notable Cosmic Settings: Wagner Mars Base Dok'Thorath Celestial Tribunal The Enclave of the Endlings With only going over four environments in this episode, we have enough time to really get into each of them. We go through them in the above order, answering your great questions on each setting as we cover that environment. The cosmic place we talk about the least this week is the Bloodsworn Colosseum, which is the topic of next week's episode! Send in your questions now!

A Contest of Cosmic proportions! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:46:41 Whole lotta story going on today! Who will win? Only time will tell! I mean, actually, we're gonna tell you. In this episode. The show notes today would be pretty spoilerific, so I'm just going to give some useful timestamps here. The whole thing is story, so just listen to it! After a few minutes of banter and overview, we cover what all of the tiers and brackets contain, and then get right into going through each of the fights in Round One. Coverage of Round Two begins at around the one hour and 8 minutes mark. The fights start getting more intense now! We begin Round Three right before the one hour, 40 minutes mark. Everything's really heating up now! This round determines the winner of each tier! With those winners de

We're back with an episode about brothers! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:14:22 It's been a month since we last recorded and we're thrilled to be back!

The deadline for getting your Cosmic Contest entries to us is tomorrow, Wednesday, December 6th! Very exciting. Let's get into the episode! (Many apologies for terrible British accents this episode.)

A creepy podcast about a creepy fellow, indeed! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:04:32 "We make things up and then are surprised when you like them." We start off with the first appearance of Biomancer in Sentinel Comics, and then get into the deeper truth behind who Biomancer really was. The truth is out there! And it's in this episode, too. We cover Biomancer's overview in under fifteen minutes. It's your questions (starting about 14 minutes in) that bring out all the really interesting stuff. This episode is on the shorter side, but that makes sense, given how little time Biomancer spends in the spotlight. Right after the 32 minute mark, we get into a MAJOR story reveal. One of the things we've been sitting on forever. You'll know what episode to ask your follow-up questions in when you hear what we're talki

An episode on the vital essence of most living things in Sentinel Comics! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:25:30 (A quick note on run times - I've been asked to stop listing the minutes in just minutes for episodes that take over an hour, thus the new format! Just to be entirely clear, the first number is the number of hours, the central number is number of minutes beyond that hour, and the last number is the number of seconds beyond those minutes.) The overview portion of today's episode covers a lot of topics! Right off the bat, we recommend you check out the Deadline/Lifeline episode, as it has some Blood Magic hints. Then, we get into the Blood Countess and the Court of Blood. After that, we

This is our very first settings episode, in which we talk about environments and locations from the world of Sentinel Comics! Show Notes: Run Time: 113:16 In today's episode, we cover Urban Settings such as: Megalopolis Freedom Tower Rook City Pike Industrial Complex San Alonso The Maerynian Refuge: Plavu'Col Mordengrad We start off by doing a quick rundown of each of these locations, and then we get into your questions! The Q&A portion of the episode begins about seven minutes into the episode. In the Megalopolis section, we answer a couple questions about banners seen in that fair city in the Sentinels of the Multiverse video game backgrounds. In answering the second of these questions right after the 32 minute mark, we reveal the truth about just what Funny Bunny means. Behold! <img src="https://assets.libsyn.com/secure/show/91622/image.png

Of all the villains we've talked about so far, this one is possibly the most evil. Show Notes: Run Time: 113:40 To reiterate what we mention in content warning at the very start of the episode, you might not want to listen to this episode with your kids. Or, at least, pre-screen this episode for content. Spite's pretty awful. In this episode, we reference both The Wraith's episode and GloomWeaver's episode. They're both pretty important to what's going on here, so you should probably check them out, if you haven't already.

An episode about a nonsensical character who has too much power for anyone's good! Show Notes: Run Time: 103:16 Right off the bat, we talk about Cosmic Contest - want more info? Listen to last week's Editor's Note! Then, right off the bat, we hit the ground running with the story told in Wager Master's first appearance in Sentinel Comics! From there, we cover many other Wager Master stories. He's such a scamp! Also, terribly evil, mostly through forcing people to play his dangerous and destructive games. We begin considering your questions about 44 minutes into the episode, starting off with us getting an issue number wrong, once again. Can you trust anythi

Our first episode with a special guest, invited or otherwise! Show Notes: Run Time: 109:14 Our long awaited Episode 40 is here, and wow is it a strange one! We'd like to apologize right now for being so mean to Guise in this episode. He took us by surprise. We don't deal with being surprised by wise-cracking shapeshifters in our recording space very gracefully, apparently. We take our time with the Overview segment this time, as we've got a bunch of stories to tell that don't really come out in the card game other than in little hints here and there. Also, we cover quite a few stories in the more in-depth, line-by-line way. No spoilers as to what we're talking about here, though! Gotta find out by listening! Anyway, as a result, we don't get to the Questions segment until a few minutes past an hour into the episo

A pharmacist, an apothecary, a teacher, and more! It's The Scholar! Show Notes: Run Time: 101:36 Everyone should go to Adam's Halloween party. Except Christopher. There are a lot of rabbit trails in today's episode, but that's mostly because The Scholar's story does a fair bit of wandering. Also, it features some depressing bits, so we wander to keep from getting too down. Fastest transition to the Questions section ever! We end the Overview segment only 8 minutes in! At the 11 minute mark, we field a Powerhound question about us messing up published issue numbers again. And! To be fair! We did mess it up. *sad trombone sound* But not entirely! That's worth something, right? Right? Look, we give a slight hint about a Sentinel Comics RPG Starter Kit as a result, so hopefully that makes up for it.

Like last week, another character with wings and a sword! Unlike last week, this one's a villain! Show Notes: Run Time: 108:51 Much like the Fanatic episode, we recommend not listening to more than the first 5 minutes of this episode if knowing the truth of Fanatic and Apostate would ruin the characters for you. We do brief overview type stuff before getting into the dark truths of Apostate, but after that, all bets are off. Next week, we'll get away from all this stuff and dig into a character who has had his hands in more of the Multiverse than you might assume! Around 9 minutes in, we accidentally do a preview of what the episode on Biomancer will sound like. I'm so sorry. Just after the 24 minute mark, we learn that Adam doesn't care for Christopher's singing. Jerk. 49 minutes in, we get to your qu

It's everyone's favorite avenging angel! Show Notes: Run Time: 86:49 This is a big one, folks. Not a super long one, but a big one, nonetheless. The first sixteen minutes of the podcast are focused on covering who Fanatic is, how she grew up, how her powers manifested, and a couple of her early notable stories. Then, we give a notable disclaimer that I'm going to reiterate here: if knowing the nitty-gritty truth of Fanatic would in some way ruin the character for you, stop listening after the 16 minute mark. Just call it a day and pick up with another episode. Probably not next week, as that's Apostate, so we'll be going even deeper into divine spoilers territory, but the week after that is The Scholar and then Guise after that, so those are fair game. Anyway, point is, you have to decide for yourself if you want to

It's the first ever Editor's Note! This is where we fill in the corners and answer any lingering questions. Run Time: 49:15 Upcoming Schedule: October 3rd: Fanatic October 10th: Apostate October 17th: The Scholar October 24th: Guise October 26th: Editor's Note #11 October 31st: Wager Master Topics of today's Editor's Note: Haka La Comodora Slaughterhouse Six Ambuscade Chrono-Ranger Writhe The Idealist La Capitan With the posting of this Editor's Note, you have under 24 hours to get in your Fanatic questions! Not to worry, though, we already have well over a hundred Fanatic questions received so far...

Avast, ye mangy bilge-rats! It's about time for some temporal piracy! Show Notes: Run Time: 119:15 Managed to keep this one just barely under 2 hours! Sorry about last week! We start by announcing that Interludes are dead - long live Editor's Notes! They will be about the same, but we'll no longer do Thursday episodes with in-depth story content, such as the Slaughterhouse Six Interlude. As promised a bit after five minutes in, here's the chart we drew up about Maria Helena's appearances in time: For those who cannot read my handwriting (and, let's be honest, I can barely read it), down the left side of the image are the various stages of Maria Helena: Young Maria Helena</li

Let's talk about the Southwest Sentinels! And then Void Guard! Show Notes: Run Time: 198:12 This is our longest and strangest episode ever. By far. In a lot of ways. Our fault for doing an episode about four different characters covering two teams. Also, no interlude this Thursday - we packed everything into this one episode.  Knowing that this episode would go long, right off the bat, we ask Trevor to get aggressive with the edits. And yet, still, this episode is so many hours long. What happened? Oh geeze. We're sorry? So, we mention in the first few minutes that last week we had a huge spike of new listeners on Wednesday. That Wednesday was our highest download day of all time. What?! Why? If you're a new listener who joined us last Wednesday, let us know where you came from, please! Tweet at us

A team of villains, led (sort of?) by Ambuscade! Let's learn more!     Show Notes:   Run Time: 92:50   This interlude is pretty much just an entire episode. Yes, we're aware we need to revisit what we're calling interludes. We'll explore that on next Thursday's... whatever it is we call it. But, yeah, this has a ton of story, including some major reveals!   We start off by talking about Ambuscade, Re-Volt, Desert Eagle, Ray Manta, Magman, and Glamour. We do some backstory and overview stuff. Then! It's time for your questions, which we kick off by digging into the biggest reveal of the whole Slaughterhouse Six story.   The questions are mostly organized by character, but they do jump around a little bit. You'll figure

Ansel G. Moreau is a famous movie star! He does his own stunts! Show Notes: Run Time: 123:04 Shockingly, this is the longest episode we've ever done! Man, that Ansel G. Moreau really loves to steal the scene. We apologize right off the bat for the quality and quantity of bad French accents in today's episode. We're so, so sorry. After the Ambuscade story stuff in the first 25 minutes, we get into a fun Mainstay and Ansel story that both Adam and Christopher end up having too much fun with on the air. It takes almost as much time as everything else that leads up to just that one story. 40 minutes in, we get into spoilers for OblivAeon territory, but we're just spilling the beans now! Have we spoiled that info before? We don't know... but we're doing it anyway! This episode is full of ups and downs.

Our big friendly fighting friend... it's Haka! Show Notes: Run Time: 102:01 We get right into it on this one, as we've got a lot to talk about. Within the first few minutes, we're already into the backstory of Aata Wakawarewa! As a result of us digging right in, we manage to get through the Haka overview, from backstory to OblivAeon, in 25 minutes! On to your questions! We had a lot of fun in the Questions section, because we got so many great questions! Haka has a lot of great stories, and we're happy to recount them. Shortly after the 75 minute mark, we have our first call out of the episode to any of the strange meta-question nonsense things that goes on in these episodes. And shortly after that, we dive right into the nonsense. After that dip into silliness, things start getting a bit more seriou

We are still exhausted from Gen Con, but let's talk about how that show went! Show Notes: Run Time: 39:44 Christopher and Adam spend the first 7 minutes of the show just talking about how Gen Con went, especially the Letters Page Live panel. Spoilers: it went REALLY well.  Just before the 5 minute mark, Christopher forgets the name of the musical instrument he played at the Letters Page Live panel. It's the melodica, dummy. The bulk of this interlude is getting to the questions that we brought to Gen Con to answer live, which are mostly general questions about both the world of Sentinel Comics and even this show. Shortly after the 10 minute mark, we have a question for our producer Trevor! We had intended on asking this question live when Trevor was there in the room with us, but instead, he was kind enough

Want to hear what happened at Gen Con 2017? Here's your chance! We had a blast at our first live episode of The Letters Page! We couldn't have asked for a better audience. So many fun things! Also, if you'd rather see what happened in this Letters Page Live episode, check out this video! Besides the entire gang of Adam, Christopher, Trevor, and even Paul, we also were graced by the presence of Christopher's brother Anthony, who wrote and performed the "Christopher and Adam reading letters to you" song. Anthony added a lot to this live episode.   Now, on to the few actual show notes f

Corporate shenanigans! Ready to meet the CEO and more? It's time to talk about RevoCorp! Show Notes: Run Time: 90:18 We dig pretty deep into untold tales and history to reveal the RevoCorp story. This is all stuff that happens on the sidelines (for the most part) of the Multiverse, but we'll cover how it ends up impacting the world of Sentinel Comics. The Q&A section features people questioning our lies. It's good to see that we're getting that message through. Also, last week's question in the Spoilers section was from Matchstickman. Sorry for making that clear in that episode! We hope that Matchstickman can forgive us. And also forgive us for what Adam does in this episode. Sorry for the brief show notes today - we just got back from Gen Con yesterday and are still recovering. Speaking of Gen

Time travel and psychic shenanigans! The many forms of Vanessa Long! Show Notes: Run Time: 105:49 We deal with multiple realities - and multiple Vanessa Longs (Vanessas Long?) in the first ten minutes, so buckle up! Brief show notes today, because: Gen Con!  So, we promised a link to the Lazer Ryders Soundtrack in the show notes. Here it is on Spotify. It's also available on Bandcamp. Not sure if there's a better place to get it, but those are both pretty legit! Also, for a

Akash'Bhuta, Akash'Thriya, and more! Show Notes: Run Time: 118:27 This show covers more time than any other episode. It's also one of our longest episodes! Appropriate. Around 5:40, we posit that this episode won't be longer than the Argent Adept episode. We were wrong. But just barely! Still, we shouldn't have been surprised. It takes us about half an hour to go through the first couple hundred million years. Then, we start slowing down, only covering thousands or even hundreds of years at a time. Bear with us! We eventually get more into the blow-by-blow stuff that happens in the pages of Sentinel Comics. Recommended listening: the Argent Adept episode, and the <sp

Buckle in, folks! We're going to meet a bunch of Virtuosos of the Void today, as well as delving into the Void itself! Show Notes: Run Time: 117:59   In the first portion of the podcast, we go through the history of the Argent Adept's appearances in the pages of Sentinel Comics, from his origin in the Toll of Destiny limited series, through the Virtuoso of the Void ongoing series. We cover a ton of stories at a pretty breakneck pace, as we had SO MANY fantastic questions that we wanted to make sure to let your wonderful input shine, you lovely listeners! We finish that entire overview in about half an hour! The majority of the rest of the episode is questions! Shortly after the 40 minute mark, Christopher gets real passionate about music. This speaks to why/how Argent Adept was cre

The longest interlude we've ever recorded, by far! So many questions answered! The name of this episode is most certainly not "Lightning Round". Show Notes: Run Time: 83:50 We cover tons of characters in this episode. A ridiculous amount of them. And almost as many different stories. Ready for hopping all over the place? Strap in - it's going to be a bumpy ride! Just after the 50 minute mark, Adam and Christopher have a debate about who would win in a fight between two villains, and Adam actually convinces Christopher! It's a surprising outcome for everyone. Rather than listing all the characters we talked about, here's a list of the things we didn't talk about, even though we did get questions about them! Galactra Quetzalcoatl Major Flay Seer Idolator Re

Let's talk about NINE villains! Nine times the goodness! Show Notes: Run Time: 72:47 There's a lot of rambling nonsense and nonsensical rambling in this episode, but there's also a lot of good story! Just before the ten minute mark, Adam divulges his scale of animal evilness, from most evil to least evil. So, that's probably a useful thing for all of you out there in internet land. Then, a bit after the fifteen minute mark, The Ennead start taking over Egypt, and we talk for the next 5-10 minutes about how locked down that whole situation was. Right after the 26 minute mark, we tell a few but very minor story about Set after The Ennead event. I'm calling it out here because I really like the story. It's not an important story, but it's fun. Just how many times do we say "reserv

Is Ra the true Egyptian God of the Sun, or just a madman with the power of fire? Or, is he something else entirely? Show Notes: Run Time: 106:57 We start with a quick overview of who Ra is, and then start breaking down his long and somewhat convoluted story. Let's dig right in. In the first ten minutes of the show, we reveal Ra as a villain (of sorts) and then kill him off (sort of), and not at all as a joke! And it's not even the most exciting ten minutes of the show! Starting just before the seventeen minute mark, Adam attempts to name all nine of The Ennead. He does... OK. More on those folks next week! Around 28 minute in, we start getting into just HOW all of this Egyptian mythology stuff has been translated into modern Sentinel Comics. Lots of great questions in today's episode, with a ton of sto

An episode about a slavering rat beast! Show Notes: Run Time: 76:10 Just a warning: we rehash some old jokes this show. We're out of material, folks. You heard it here! We're already washed up. But there are also some actual reveals in this episode! Like Plague Rat's real human name from before he was fully rattened! This is an episode of cautionary tales and important life lessons. Brush your teeth. Don't play in the sewers. Don't do drugs. Or crime. Stay in school, kids. We go from drug dealer, to rat beast, to infectious rat beast, to captured rat beast... look, a lot happens with Plague Rat, actually. You'll just have to listen to the episode! And we have a decently long Q&A segment today! Lots of fun stuff there. Good questions. Strange answers. And even a few twists! And we wrap up

Today is an American holiday, so we're going to talk about an All-American hero! Show Notes: Run Time: 83:50 Look forward to all manner of voices from Adam in today's episode! About 10 minutes in, we introduce the robot named CON. And yes, we will explain CON in this episode. It's about time! At the 20-minute mark, Adam refers to human flesh as, "Delicious, delicious flesh." We just want to mention right now: we do not support or advocate cannibalism. Adam does not consume human flesh and he does not think of it is actually delicious. That line about delicious flesh was from Plague Rat's point of view. Right after that, we explain how time travel works. So, that's cool. Around the 47-minute mark, we say that Chrono-Ranger mostly acts in the main canon timeline just after saying that he act i

Let's make some excuses! Show Notes: Run Time: 28:36 Since we got immediately down to business on Tuesday's Deadline/Lifeline episode, this interlude is a good deal more... fast and loose. Things we cover in this interlude: The Wraith and Ermine Chokepoint or Choke? Our brothers Gen Con (Dark) Visionary James Bowie David Bowie Knives K.N.Y.F.E.s Paige Huntlys (Paiges Huntly?) Sergeant Steel Stargent Seal Animals Also, as promised, here's an art! How do we get through ALL OF THAT in under half an hour? Guess you'll just have to listen to the whole thing

Tarogath... the destroyer? Or savior? Or just all-around jerk? You decide! Show Notes: Run Time: 86:29 This is a no-nonsense episode! (Meaning we only engage in minimal nonsense.) It's not the longest episode we've recorded, but it might be the most jam-packed with exciting info! We start off by talking about the Enclave of the Endling, including proper pronunciation of the names of many Endlings and their fallen races. Got questions about the Enclave of the Endlings? Submit a question! We'll d

Today, we talk about Michael Conteh of Conteh Energy Corporation! Surely, that's where you know him from, right? Show Notes: Run Time: 61:31 Right in the beginning, we mention that The Operative will come up later in the podcast. And then we follow-through on that promise! We talk about stuff between The Naturalist and The Organization - which does happen to involve The Operative - just after the six minute mark. Lots of exciting things in today's episode, including space adventures, business take-overs, and even the origin of Akash'Thriya! The Naturalist has to deal with Equity early on, but we'll also hear from the Slaughterhouse Six - lots of people want to kill The Naturalist, apparently. As we have done before and we will certainly do again, we discuss how unsettling birds are in this episode

Let's talk about a shady organization that reaches throughout the Multiverse! Show Notes: Run Time: 67:07 At the beginning of the podcast, Christopher predicts that this episode will have a run time of an hour and twelve minutes. Turns out, didn't even make it that long! This episode, we cover F.I.L.T.E.R. in all of its incarnations, get into The Block - the extradimensional F.I.L.T.E.R. prison and HQ, and also talk about the story of Sergeant Steel and his Steel Squadron! Just before the 17 minute mark, we mention that the K.N.Y.F.E. episode is essential listening for the story we're about to tell. If you haven't listened to that one yet, <

She's tough, she's Scottish, and she's got energy powers! It's Agent Paige Huntly: A.K.A. the hero known as K.N.Y.F.E.! Show Notes: Run Time: 55:34 First thing first! We're both older - but certainly no wiser - than we were last episode! Happy Birthday to us. We first introduced the character of Paige Huntly in last week's Chokepoint episode, as their stories intertwine before Agent Huntly ever becomes K.N.Y.F.E. When we get to the Progeny fight, we go into a bit of a discussion on whether Progeny's head flying away is cool or silly. Who is right? You decide! And then we're off to SPACE! Lots of great stuff about alternate realities, people being awful, her Scottish-ness, and even more in the questions section. Get your questions about F.I.L.T.E.R., Sergeant Steel, and The Block now! A

Today, we talk about the tech-bending villain Chokepoint! Show Notes: Run Time: 71:03 Right off the bat, we discuss the Iconclad Project and how it took on young Evelyn Moore as in her infancy. You might recall the Ironclad Project from the Bunker episode! Around thirteen minutes in, we talk about The Block, and then a few minutes later, we introduce the F.I.L.T.E.R. Agent Paige Huntly. More on her next week, and more on FILTER and The Block the week after that! We get through her entire backstory without digging into the Termi-Nation story... but not to worry! We do a HUGE section in the Q&A portion of the podcast all about Termi-Nation. Adam reads a letter from the Cult of

Get those Chokepoint & K.N.Y.F.E. questions in TODAY! See you soon!

It's everyone's favorite team of heroes! Show Notes: Run Time: 68:52 We talk about every published incarnation of the Freedom Five and the Freedom Four, and often go down rabbit trails of nonsense, philosophy, or sometimes outright lies. Enjoy! Lots of callbacks to previous episodes today, but also a good deal of call-forwards! We hint at the contents of the episodes of Haka, Ambuscade, the Slaughterhouse Six, and more! The Q&A section in this episode is particularly robust, as well! IMPORTANT! Starting exactly at 58 minutes and 10 seconds into the episode, we start talking about major story spoilers! If you don't want story spoilers for the Sentinel Comics RPG timeline as they're things you'll get to play through, please skip from 58:10 to 63:40.  A

It everyone's favorite robot builder: Unity!   Show Notes: Run Time: 68:10 First thing, right off the bat, we talk about a survey. This is a link to that survey! Please do take a moment to fill it out, as it will help us grow and improve The Letters Page.  Then, we're on to talk about television! Because that's what this show is about! Adam requested just after 12 minutes into the podcast that I put his address in the show notes. No one tell him that I'm not doing that. Just trust me; it's for the best. We talk about Unity's parents' history a bit, and how her mom was injured during the <a href= "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yom_Kippur_W

A dastardly episode about Baron Blade, Freight Train, Ermine, Proletariat, and Friction!   Show Notes Run Time: 92:42 The longest episode yet! I know that this is a podcast about characters from a fictional comic book series, but we start off by talking about the weather. A bunch. So, that's fun! Just before the four minute mark, we explain the format that we're using this episode, since we're covering a bunch of characters with overlapping stories. A thing we don't mention but is very true: this episode references a TON of other episodes. In a lot of ways, the Vengeful Five are a product of their opponents, so there's a lot of "inside baseball" talk in this episode.

Today, we talk about a character with as depressing a name as his backstory! Hooray? Show Notes: Run Time: 87:33 Right off the bat, we get started with the story of the FIRST Absolute Zero! Surprise! Just after the 3 minute mark, we lose our highly focused train of thought and devolve into madness, discussing the difference in scariness between Nazis and Nazi Ghosts. And then what to do about ghosts. We do this for... minutes. And then return to the backstory of the first Absolute Zero. There's no excuse for our behavior. We do get into some of the backstory of the Golden Age of Sentinel Comics in the first fifteen minutes of this episode. We also goof around a bit.  Then! We finally get into Absolute Zero. The Absolute Zero you all know and love, that is. At 19:28, I get ahead of myself and

It's an interlude about the everything of everything! Show Notes: Run Time: 16:17 First off, here's the upcoming schedule: May 2nd: Absolute Zero May 9th: Vengeful Five May 16th: Unity May 23rd: Freedom Five May 25th: Interlude: Dark Watch May 30th: Chokepoint June 6th: K.N.Y.F.E. Rock 'n' Roll! Racing! Get your Absolute Zero questions is now Now NOW! Time is fleeting! In this episode, we talk about what it means to be a Sentinel, what a recurring villain is, how we can all do better, how this whole thing came to be, and more! And, thanks to brilliant listener Princess Cool, we now know what a group of Nazi Ghosts would be called. See you next week!

Let's talk about Lillian Corvus in her many forms! I got all artsy with today's image! In case you're not sure which art is which Lillian Corvus: Top: The Matriarch Left: The Harpy Right: Dark Watch Harpy Bottom: Pinion Show Notes: Run Time: 74:18 We finish up the villain portion of this podcast in the first fifteen minutes! Wow! At the 14 minute mark, we begin digging into an event revealed in the OblivAeon lead-up ARG, the story of Dark Watch #7. Just after the 35 minute mark, when discussing GloomWeaver, Christopher talks about that villainous entity getting encased in a doctor. Not sure what we're talking about? Liste

This episode has arrived before it even left! Show Notes: Run Time: 79:15 Three and a half minutes in, we mention that there's an upcoming Freedom Five Episode. We do a lot of, "We'll talk about that in the [some character] episode," so I figured I might as well give you the official schedule through the end of May, at least. Today: Tachyon! Next Week: Lilian Corvus (Matriarch, Harpy, Pinion) May 2nd: Absolute Zero May 9th: Vengeful Five May 16th: Unity May 23rd: Freedom Five May 30th: Chokepoint Worry not! We'll still do an Interlude about the upcoming schedule at the end of this month. I genuinely have no idea how many of our listeners read these show notes. We talk about a couple of Tachyon's interns, <span style= "text-decoration: un

This interlude is called the Betterlude, because we recorded it once already, but now it's back and better than ever! Show Notes: Run Time: 23:31 Things we talk about! Parsons family powers Baron Blade in multiple places? Kismet in no places? Omnitron stuff Expatriette in another reality Where are the comics? Thanks for listening!

Magicks from another realm! An ancient evil entity! What more could you ask for? Show Notes:  Run Time: 89:06 Just as a heads up, Adam gets real demanding in this episode. About fifteen minutes into the episode, we try to figure out what a group of Nazi Ghosts would be called. A haunt? A heil? Help us out! We sneak in stories for a lot of other characters here. NightMist, Spite, Lifeline, even Doctor Medico! (Really big NightMist reveal during the Q&A portion, in particular...) At around the 38 minute mark, he talk about Richard Launius. He's co-designed a game that we're publishing this year! It's called Fate of the Elder Gods. Find out more <spa

Time to talk about NightMist! Lots of big story stuff here. Before the show even properly starts, Christopher jumps in to apologize for not posting an Interlude last week. We recorded it! It was really great. And then, the files got eaten by the internet, somehow. We have new plans in place to keep that from happening in the future (we're glad that we lost an Interlude and not an entire Episode), but we'll just have to re-record all that stuff this Friday after we record the GloomWeaver episode. Sorry about that! We're pretty annoyed about it, but what can be done? Just gotta move on. Also! A few episodes ago we mentioned that a Letters Page Bingo type thing could be fun. Lo and behold, it has happened! Awesome Letters Page listener Kyle Grossman has created THIRTY different Letters Page Bingo cards, and you can find them all <spa

Time for crime! The sordid history of Chairman Pike is about to be revealed! Show Notes: Run Time: 77:56 We start by talking about Jonathan Pike, the man you founded Pike Industries. We quickly move on from there. We mention that the hero Black Fist is one of the first people to really oppose The Organization. More on him in the Mister Fixer episode. (Which Adam claims as his favorite episode so far. Christo

Time to talk about H.R. "Slim" Walker! Show Notes: Run time: 83:28 We're doing things slightly differently today: instead of moving through the character's life chronologically, we go in order of what stuff appeared in the pages of Sentinel Comics. We start by talking about the character Black Fist! This art is the only depiction of Black Fist in the Sentinels of the Multiverse card game: (Hint: In this art, Black Fist is neither Legacy nor the giant green space alien person. He's the other person. The one next to Legacy.) Twelveish minutes into the episode, we move forward to talking about "Slim" - who then becomes Mister Fixer - he looks like the first image posted above. Just

Omnitron and Omnitron and Omnitron and Omnitron! And more! This is both a villain and a hero episode! And even more! Show Notes: Run Time: 68:35 At the very beginning, we mention that our business partner Paul makes a video series with his brother where they talk about rockets and stuff. It's called Specific Impulse, and they have a bunch of great videos on YouTube! Check them out! At the top of these show notes you can see the initial iteration of Omnitron in its "Rampaging Robot" form, rather than its Factory form. We'll show a few different versions of Omnitron in these show notes as

Another member of the Freedom Five! It's Bunker! An important note before getting into the actual show notes for the episode. This episode was recorded at the beginning of the year, as we knew that this week, we would be unable to record an episode due to various conventions. As a result, the Q&A portion of the episode is MUCH shorter, as we had far fewer Bunker questions. Not to worry! On May 23rd, we'll be posting Episode 19 - Freedom Five Recap. That episode has been planned since just after we posted the episode about The Wraith, as we've gotten a bunch of follow up questions on both Legacy and The Wraith. That episode will just be a huge Q&A section covering all of your Freedom Five issues, including Bunker questions! So, apologies for the shortness of this episode, but we'll make it up to you in May!

Time for some tricks - we're gonna talk about Kismet! Show Notes: Run Time: 75:06 In the intro, Christopher mentions the shirt he's wearing. Because he's a fun guy. We talk about The Block - an extradimensional prison detached from time and space - a few times in this episode. It's pictured behind Kismet there in the cover image for this episode. As mentioned, Kismet exists because of a winning entry to our 2012 <a href= "https://sentinelsofthemultiverse.com/blog/2012/09/crea

Let's talk Setback!  Show Notes: Run Time: 84:16 We were really tempted to post this show a day late, just because of who this episode is about... but we didn't want to let our listeners down! If you haven't listened to the Expatriette episode yet, we suggest you do so before the Q&A portion of this episode - lots of connected stuff. We mention that the building he went to for medical testing was a RevoCorp building. More on RevoCorp in the Baron Blade episode! Not a lot of notes today! This episode is pret

Time for another villain episode! Today, we talk all about the leader of the Citizens of the Sun!  Show Notes: Run Time: 86:41 As a note, today's episode is about a pretty terrible person. She's a villain, and not really a sympathetic one. Just so you know. Because of the impressive number of questions you all asked about Citizen Dawn, today's episode features a slightly shorter character overview segment, followed by a much longer Q&A section. Great work everyone - keep those questions coming! The character we're talking about this week is the mother of the character we talked about last week, so there's a lot of information you'll want in this episode. If you missed last week's episode, <a href= "http://theletterspage.libsyn.com/episode-4-expatriette" target= "_bl

It's time for everyone's favorite gun-totin' purple-haired markswoman! Show Notes: Run Time: 83:05 Hoo boy! We're having trouble sticking to this "one-hour-show" thing, aren't we? We just have so much to say! We mention that Amanda Cohen - AKA Expatriette - is not related to Leonard Cohen. She's really not. But he's great. In attempt to appeal to younger generations, Christopher uses the phrase "on fleek". No, he doesn't know how to use it or what it means. <a href= "https://www.bustle.com/articles/55940-what-does-on-fleek-mean-a-brief-timeline-of-the-phrase-that-no-one-r

Hey, folks! This Interlude is called the Trevorlude for reasons! Come and get it! Show Notes: Run time: 11:48 Right off the bat, we talk about a game of Sentinels of the Multiverse that we played. Christopher says that none of the heroes had hands. This doesn't mean that they had their hands chopped off - the players controlling those heroes had no cards in their hands. Just to be clear. Now, on to the important stuff - upcoming episodes! February 7th: Expatriette February 14th: Citizen Dawn February 21st: Setback February 28th: Kismet Got questions on those characters? Ask them now! <p

Our first villain episode had to be about Baron Blade, right? Show Notes: Run Time: 69:27 Oh, man. Some big reveals in this episode. Let's get to it! Just before the seven-minute mark, Christopher mentions that we've said before that we're not going to turn this into a Star Wars podcast. Trevor has to edit at least a few minutes of Star Wars discussion out of almost every episode. We like Star Wars. While discussing the "Trial of Baron Blade" story, we talk about the super-powered law blog, Law and the Multiverse. We recommend you chec

We're talking about The Wraith! Show Notes: Run Time: 78:01 In the first three minutes, Christopher says that there's another 45 minutes of episode to go. He vastly underestimated how much he and Adam are able to talk about The Wraith. By about half an hour. Because she lives, works, and fights there, we talk a lot about Rook City. Check out the Sentinels Wiki for more information on that terrible place. Adam perfectly NAILS the name "<a href= "http://sentinelswiki.com/inde

Welcome to our first Interlude episode! Run Time: 21:46 Interlude episodes will be shorter episodes that we release on occasional Thursdays. We'll use these to answer general questions, additional questions about characters that we've covered in previous episodes, and other supplemental information. Today, we're covering a bit of overarching info about the world of Sentinel Comics - how it works, what our vision for it involves, etc. Also, we discuss what you might find in The Letters Page podcast, going forward. Only one Show Note for this episode: at the 19 minute mark, we mention that there have been a few episodes of The Letters Page at this point. Obviously, that's not true. We had recorded this Interlude with plans to release it after we had a few episodes in the bag, but upon listening to it, we realized it would be a great

It's our first episode! And it's about Legacy! If you have questions for Christopher and Adam, ask them here! Show Notes: Run Time: 66:50 We mention Joseph Parson's connection to Paul Revere and his famous ride. For more information on that, click this link. We apologize for alienating all listeners named Pauline in the first ten minutes of our first episode ever. Sor
