#1535; The Growing Threat, Part 2 (of 3)

Comic Transcripts

[[The whole group from the farm is now gathered for a post-battle review in the locker room.]]

JUNDLEY: …All right, I think we should debrief how that went, out at the farm.
JUNDLEY: Saxor, good work catching her as she tried to flee.
SAXOR: She was easy to outrun.
JUNDLEY: I should hope so. Jellina, nice job pretending to comfort her, then snapping her neck.
JELLINA: I did not PRETEND. She WAS comforted, in the end.

[[Also present are KIBLEY, an even taller woman than Jellina; MORBLUS, a barrel-chested guy; and TANTOR, the largest man yet.]]

JUNDLEY: Kibley, good hustle on crushing all her ribs.
KIBLEY: In retrospect, I DO think I missed a few.
JUNDLEY: It’s fine. Tantor made sure ALL her bones were powder.
TANTOR: Bones AND cartilages
MORBLUS: And I helped!
KIBLEY: ONLY with the cartilages

[[All that’s visible of GRUMSBACH is his lower, orcish half, looming over everyone. ZINGO, a martial artist, crouches in his typical ready pose.]]

JUNDLEY: Grumsbach, once again, it’s sufficient to mash the remains to smithereens. You DON’T need to EAT the smithereens.
GRUMSBACH: Do not NEED, but WANT
JUNDLEY: Zingo, quick hands as always, rendering the fluids into paste…
ZINGO: What I DO with this paste will REMAIN my SECRET

JUNDLEY: Finally, Buff Santa, thanks for helping, I know this is a busy time of year.
BUFF SANTA: My FISTS are a GIFT to the NAUGHTY.
JUNDLEY: So you keep saying.

[[Finally, Jundley turns to face little ol’ Bimpley.]]

JUNDLEY: And that leaves YOU.
BIMPLEY: I am having the TIME of my LIFE!

I never thought being struck by a thrown frying pan would make me feel so ALIVE!

Continued from Part 1.

Buy a Print

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.
