Why, I do believe it's time for early Silver Age comics!
But enough about me, what've you got planned for the weekend?
Got some more Al Williamson for you today. Also, I won't be here on Sunday... yes, I know I've been awol most of this month, but that's just how it is.
Apropos of nothing, I've almost finished XCOM 1 (I know, I know), and I need another game to scratch my squad-based strategy itch. Which game from my Steam Library should I try next?
>Chroma Squad
>Mordheim
>Shadowrun: Dragonfall
>SteamWorld Heist
>Swords & Crossbones: An Epic Pirate Story
>TASTEE: Lethal Tactics

Neat! Which edition?
>learn FASERIP
Ah, I have fond memories of ZeFRS... the campaign I was in years ago is still the gold standard of fantasy campaigns for me.
>try to resist ordering Hellboy Library collection #1 until free day one shipping is back on Amazon
Eh, I sometimes use Wordery or Book Depository if Amazon's being greedy.

$37 dollary doos aren't a bad price for Amazon and they actually treat hardcovers decently in shipping.
