Comic Transcripts

[[Three people greet a scout, who is wearing a heavy protective old-timey diving suit. They appear to have cybernetic bodies (or perhaps protective suits); their bodies are partially made of large objects of some kind. One is wearing a tophat and monocle.]]
Survivor: Any news from the surface?
Scout: It’s bleak out there.

Scout: Lots of weekend inertia not dissipating. Causing unnecessary and unplanned meetings. It’s TURBULENT.
Tophat: They said it would PASS by now! We should be well into WEDNESDAY!
Scout: OH no. It’s RAGING Monday. I can’t honestly predict we’ll see Tuesday until next week at best. And maybe not then.

Survivor: What do you MEAN, “maybe not then”?
Scout: Found some folks huddled around a Keurig. One of ’em thinks we MULTITASKED too much. Hit peak productivity and broke the whole thing.
Scout: We might not see Tuesday for a YEAR. We might be watching ALL FUTURE MONDAYS collapse into a superdense Mon-FOREVER.

Scout: We might be looking at an ETERNAL MONDAY.
Survivor: That’s – that’s CRAZY!
Scout: Listen very carefully to me. We won’t HAVE to be CRAZY to survive the upcoming Monday singularity and subsequent collapse of civilization – BUT IT IS GOING TO HELP.

New ways to get Bolted!

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.
