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!

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!

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...

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...

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,...

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 fa...

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 ove...

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!

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!

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 letter...

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.

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 futur...

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 !

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 mor...

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 !...

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...

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.
