Like last Sunday’s post, today’s feature focuses on someone I met through the Puerto Rico Role Players community. Angel and I have crossed paths in a couple of different fields; since we both...
I saw this list format posted by Angus Abranson on Facebook, and I originally thought I’d be able to complete it easily. It ended up taking a bit more thought than I expected....
I’m thrilled about today’s interview. I’ve known the subject almost as long as the Puerto Rico Role Players group has existed. I’m sure we had many friends in common before that, and I’m...
An admission, dear readers: I had no idea who Awkward GM Corbin was until I started writing this post. Now I’ve discovered his YouTube Channel and know exactly who created the “About Me:...
An Interview with Carbo_Creates, Puerto Rican Artist and Game Designer Happy Sunday, dear reader! We are back for another interview with a Boricua creator. Today’s subject is someone I’ve had the pleasure of...
Do you remember my interview with Eliana Falcón-Dvorsky a few weeks ago? She is officially crowdfunding the project we discussed, Arcton: From Ingala to the Wastes, over on BackerKit! Here is the description...
I’ve written about the first TTRPG books I ever got at a garage sale a couple of times here on the blog over the years. I think it’s worth recapping the event for...

After looking at two artists I discovered in the early 90s—between what I had termed the Early-Years and the Middle-Years—let’s travel back to the Proto-History. Let’s look at the art that inspired me...
Chris Achilleos is another artist I discovered while working at Metro Comics. Two years before Mike Ploog’s trading card collection, which I mentioned in my previous post, the same company, FPG, published the...
My recent deep dives into comics led me to explore other fantasy and sword-and-sorcery books I’d either missed or forgotten about over the years. That winding path eventually led me to Weirdworld, a...
When I recently shared that image of classic DC Comics sword-and-sorcery characters as great TTRPG inspiration on my Facebook Page (see the featured image above!), I honestly didn’t expect to fall down such...
As part of the excitement for the upcoming Puerto Rico Comic Con, which I posted about yesterday, and all the gaming goodness that is happening there, I learned of a project for a...
There’s going to be a massive tabletop presence at the Puerto Rico Comic Con (PRCC) this year, happening from April 3rd to the 5th at the Puerto Rico Convention Center. It figures this...
We’re here, on the final installment of the retrospective of my past 40 years as a gamer. It will not be the last post on the topic, mind you; this is just the...
