    Batwoman #201 "What Happened to Kate Kane?"

    I'm not going to work very hard at avoiding or hiding spoilers. If you haven't watched the episode yet, you shouldn't be reading a thread about it! :) I think the Season 2 premiere debuted last Sunday . . . I didn't realize and missed it, caught it today on the CW app. So, Kate Kane's (Ruby...

    D&D 5E Kercpa 5E Stats?

    If anybody can point me to some good 5E stats for the kercpa race . . . small squirrel people from 2nd Edition. I'm not looking for a PC race write-up, but monster stats I can use to create a kercpa sidekick. I think my firbolg paladin (oath of ancients) needs a little squirrel buddy!

    WotC Dungeons & Dragons Fans Seek Removal of Oriental Adventures From Online Marketplace

    With WotC's recent statement on making the game more inclusive in regards to racial issues, I should have predicted this would happen next. Dungeons & Dragons Fans Seek Removal of Oriental Adventures From Online Marketplace The 1st Edition "Oriental Adventures" is probably one of the worst...

    D&D Cartoon Collectible Statues

    This news isn't terribly new, but I don't remember seeing anything on ENWorld about it so . . . Iron Studios will be releasing a series of collectible statues based on the 80's D&D cartoon in the 2nd half of 2019. I stumbled across this when watching a new video on the cartoon from Toy Galaxy...

    The Power Struggle for Dungeons & Dragons' Soul

    Read this article on Medium, The Power Struggle for Dungeons & Dragons' Soul. Discuss. :) This isn't really a new phase for D&D, but rather an intensification in some ways. The article is well balanced, discussing both limits on fans' creativity but also WotC's need to turn a profit. I...

    D&D 5E NPR - The Curse of the Black Lotus & D&D

    NPR's Planet Money just released an article about Magic The Gathering, and how it beat the "Curse of the Black Lotus". With all the talk about WotC's plans for D&D, I found this interesting and relevant. Here's the NPR story...

    Review of Combat in Motion (Enhanced 4E) by Christopher F. Ash

    The author's blatant rip-off of WotC's 4E trade dress turns me off right there. I know you "shouldn't judge a book by it's cover", but it's a sign of lazy production, lack of creativity, and lack of understanding of what's okay and not okay when using other's work.

    WotC has a plan for their D&D archive. What is it!?

    The latest "Confessions of a Full-Time Wizard" column by Shelly Mazzanoble just went up late tonight (for Wednesday). I don't read Mazzanoble's column regularly, but this time she talks about the warehouse-sized D&D archive TSR had kept in Wisconsin, that it was recently shipped to Renton, and...

    I currently own A&A Anniversary Edition, and the "revised" edition of the game that came out somewhat prior to that. I plan on purchasing the newer European and Pacific theatre games . . . . . Any reason why I should pick up the current "main" edition of the game, A&A 1942? New & improved...

    I'm interested in reading some Green Lantern graphic novels, and would like your advice as to a good place to start.
