#727; In which Friendship is pined for

Comic Transcripts

” You know who THAT is? That’s Bobby Pflugelblager”
“I don’t know who that is ”

“Bobby Pflugelblager is RAD. He’s SUPER active on the cracked.com fan forums, PLUS Drew Carey re-tweeted one of his twitpics like a year ago.”
“WHOA”
“He’s got a music-review tumblr full of SICK MP3s, AND he self-published a Kindle book of paranormal post-apocalyptic erotica.”

“I follow him on Twitter AND once got an @ reply when I found a typo on one of his zazzle shirts”
“That kid is INCREDIBLE! ”
“But what can you say to him, you know? ” I’ve been stalking you online, your last.fm is amazing and I think we would get along well together?””

“NO. We’re kept at arm’s length by the Kabuki of politeness. We have to ROLEPLAY as people who AREN’T invisible connected, pretending we ACTUALLY don’t know everything we know. And for WHAT? So we can talk about the WEATHER with someone we deeply admire?”
“Maybe just stand next to him and say real loudly to someone else “My favourite sexual position is with a werewolf in a crater.””

In addition to buying things directly from me, the normal way, my game Bolted! is also now available on Amazon dot com.

On that famous website, you can also get the Creature-Crafting Magnets Set, which is made of the same artwork from the game, but is just a weird little trinket (not a playable game).

My kiddo made the elaborate version below to show off just how many magnets you get in the set (it’s 150 pieces in all — this isn’t even all of them).

Also now on Amazon is my set of Multi-Purpose Greeting Cards — a full dozen cards with envelopes in a fancy, unbranded, foil-stamped box!

Event alert!

I’ll also be showing off Bolted! at Greenwood Games, an event in Seattle this Saturday:

Greenwood Games is a free, all-ages community game event that invites players to spend the afternoon walking Greenwood Avenue from 65th to 80th, collecting clues, cracking puzzles, and discovering games made right here in Washington.

Think of it as Pride Hop, ArtWalk, and the Gumshoe all rolled into one, except the whole thing is built around games and puzzles.

Local game designers will be set up at different places along Greenwood Avenue in Phinney Ridge (near Ballard). My specific spot will be the “Holy Mountain Phinney Ridge Taproom”. All the information about all the different games & venues is on the website!

(If you’re in Seattle generally but not free tomorrow, Bolted! is also stocked at Blue Highway Games in Queen Anne.)

Next week, I’ll be at Gen Con! I personally will be hanging with my buddy Sam Logan at BFE Webcomics, booth #1217… but I have it on good authority that copies of Bolted! will be available at the CRWN Studios booth, #2549.

Visit one booth! Then the other! The order…is up to you.
