Episode #279 - Writers' Room: Cosmic Tales Vol. 2 #533
Looks like it's time for Space Stuff!
Show Notes:
Run Time: 2:09:45
What's with all these long episodes (for the most part) lately?! We must be catching up for lost time in the first few months of the year. Yeah, that's it — gotta make sure our average episode length smooths itself out.
This episode is just a straight-up continuation of a previous episode: Episode #225, in fact! Haven't listened to it before? We recommend going back and checking it out before diving into this one. We clarify some things from the issue we Writers' Roomed in that one, cover the issue after that, and then dive deep into today's title/cover issue! Woo!
Then, in the letters section, we talk about love. What's not to love?
See you next week (or this Friday, if you're on the Letters Page Patreon) for an Editor's Note! -
Episode #278 - Writers' Room: A Day In The Life: The Argent Adept
Another Day in another Life! The musical episode? (No.)
Show Notes:
Run Time: 1:39:59
It's been awhile since we've done one of these, and we're excited to return to the format. Did we make it work? You decide!
Also, check out this kick-ass cover that Adam slaved over! Mighty impressive!
We also field a bunch of letters on a few topics, and we attempt to answer them all! I realize that's pretty much every episode, but it's also this one!
Join us next week for an episode about space anti-hero big dummy, earth-to-space-to-earth fashion model turned vigilante vs cosmic Jaws (TM, don't sue us). -
Episode #277 - Writers' Room: Mind Over Matter #53
We're going to a darker time!
Show Notes:
Run Time: 1:37:29
We're right at it, and telling a story that gets pretty Dark... Dark Visionary, that is! I'd say "spoilers", but you could have already seen the cover by this point, so there you go. And it happened at the same time as the Vengeance limited series, as promised! Want to know more? You'll just have to listen to the episode!
Next week, we get to do another Day in the Life episode, this one about The Argent Adept! Join us! -
Episode #276 - Writers' Room: Freedom Five #431
Christopher and Adam are back, and they're not even a little sorry for this episode!
Show Notes:
Run Time: 2:07:07
We genuinely didn't know where we were headed at the start of this recording, but we sure got there! Did you enjoy it? We sure did!
Join us next week for Episode #277 - Writers' Room: A Vengeance tie-in story!
-
Surgery-Sode!!!
It's finally here! The long-awaited surgery-sode!
That's right, not much of an episode today, because Christopher just had spine surgery and is recovering. How's recovery going? I'm sure we'll find out soon! Bear with us until then! (AAAAH!! The bear is back!!!) -
Editor's Note #77
An early Editor's Note!
Show Notes:
Run Time: 2:04:03
The Letters Boys have some complaints, but all solvable problems, one way or another! We look forward to having fewer complaints and make more content! Stories! Art! More!
There's an upcoming schedule! There's also a current schedule! Here they are!
Upcoming schedule:
Tuesday, March 12th: definitely Editor’s Note #77
Tuesday, March 19th: for sure Surgery-Sode
Tuesday, March 26th: hopefully Episode #276 - Writers' Room: A Villain romantically involved with a support character
If all that works, then:
Tuesday, April 2nd: Episode #277 - Writers' Room: A Vengeance tie-in story
Tuesday, April 9th: Episode #278 - A Day in the Life: Argent Adept
Tuesday, April 16th: Episode #279 - Greazer & Fashion vs Card Shark
Tuesday, April 23rd: Editor’s Note #78
Tuesday, April 30th: Episode #280 - Disparation Vol. 2 #122 “Farewell to the Oracle”
Here's hoping!
Next week, it's the likely-not-very-interesting-surgery-sode, but then! After that! A return to form (probably) with maybe Christopher having a funny voice (hopefully)! Something(s) to look forward to.
Customer Reviews
Must-listen for Sentinels fans, and great for creatives!
(Updated from original review in Feb 2017.) For those of us who enjoy the characters and lore of Sentinels of the Multiverse, Sentinel Tactics, Sentinel Comics RPG, and other games from Greater Than Games, this podcast with the creators is amazing! In addition to all the backstory and reveals it provides, Christopher and Adam are (as always) fun and entertaining to listen to. Their love of the Multiverse they have created is apparent in the energy and attention they provide, here, and make this a wonderful experience! For many of the fans, having the ability to directly ask questions is the best part, as all the theories and conjecture from years of online discussions are being addressed! In addition, it's an impressive experience to hear two creators bouncing off of each other, how they work, and how those results come to fruition, making it a potential learning experience for other creatives, be it in game design, fiction writing, art, etc. As the story has been told, the podcast has transitioned beautifully through various states, maintaining its wonderful story telling while continuing to entertain throughout -- and allowing its listeners to be involved more and more as time goes on.
Always Surprised
I started collecting Sentinels of the Multiverse items in early 2018, and this podcast has more than doubled my appreciation for the characters and stories in the game. Whenever I start listening to an episode that I think is about a boring hero or villain, I come away thinking how awesome their story is. Christopher and Adam, you guys are super cool, and it’s been awesome joining you on this journey to the multiverse and beyond.
A great podcast
I’ve been playing Sentinlas pf the multiverse since the first Kickstarter and love the game. But this podcast adds so much depth to the game. It’s also great story telling. I highly recommend it for fans of the game and fans of good story telling.
