Our Christmas present to you is this East End Irregulars short story, starring none of the Irregulars. But it does have lots of other stars, and also Caduceus, the bio-psychokinetic doctor-in-training and sometimes ally of the Irregulars we introduced in The Dismal Tide. Two new sketches also accompany the story. This is not a tale […]

Ghost Comic of Christmas Past: ‘A Very Question Christmas’
Christmas comes in three days and the year 2016 will soon be behind us. Yeah, I know what you’re thinking. ‘What, no new books??’ Obviously we will not be putting out any new Ascension Epoch titles in the waning days of this year. Shell and I actually have six in progress, plus a comic, but […]
Movie Review: Doctor Strange (2016)
I saw Dr. Strange over the weekend. While I can’t say I was excited about its prospects, I was certainly curious about the treatment this first-rate-but-third-string character would receive, especially considering that in tone and concept, Dr. Strange inhabits a very different part of the Marvel Universe than the Avengers. While the mysterious sorcerer from Bleecker […]

Shell and I have a whole line of Ascension Epoch action figures (all 3.75″ or 1/18th scale, usually based on G.I. Joe, Star Wars, and Marvel Universe figures) in various stages of completion. Here’s Torrent. OK, so his hair needs to be painted dark brown, not to mention a pair of arms, but I […]

Open Source Fiction panel at Sci-Fi Valley Con
As promised, here’s the link to our presentation on Open Source Fiction, presented Friday, June 10th, at Sci-Fi Valley Con in Altoona, PA. We originally made it in PowerPoint, so it looks a bit messy when converted to the open document format. I recommend downloading it and viewing in PowerPoint. Sorry for any inconvenience.
