#724; A Hypothetical Scenario

Comic Transcripts

Man: Susan? Can I ask you a question – an IMPORTANT question?
Would you still love me if my toes became mice?

Man: If my toenails became little tiny buck teeth, and the wrinkled skin on each knuckle twisted to become a series of sinister little pointed faces?
If the sparse hair on each digit stiffened and elongated into whiskers, and those rigid tendons on my feet became long, whipping tails, possessed of an independent dark energy?

Man: If I no longer WALKED from place to place, but rather was PORTED ABOUT by the scurrying of forty tiny legs, pulling my stiff, upright body from place to place entirely in opposition to any will I might express?
Man: Would you still love me if this nightmare became real TONIGHT, Susan? If the moon and the stars and my birthday just HAPPENED to combine in an awful, irresistible alchemy?

Susan: Is this likely?
Man: Why in the world would THAT matter SUSAN

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.
