There have been some excellent fantasy-driven comic books of late and I was more than pleased to discover Brian Schirmer's writing surpassed any expectations I might have had coming in cold to the series. The art of Elena Gogou is a great blend of whimsical storytelling, making the package a real treat for the reader, especially fantasy role-play gamers. Listen to Brian, intern Jen, and I discuss this fun comic book and a host of other great topics - like Hawk the Slayer. You'll dig it.</p> https://wesu.streamrewind.com/https://wesu.streamrewind.com/bookmarks/listen/379443 Sun, 16 Apr 2023 18:30:00 GMT Pint O' Comics Episode 268 w/ Luke Gygax - Gary Con Cometh! https://wesu.streamrewind.com/https://wesu.streamrewind.com/bookmarks/listen/376888 <p>&nbsp;Luke aka Luscious Maximus Gygax returns to Pint O' Comics to discuss Dungeons and Dragons, games, and the upcoming Gary Con XV.
