Happy Holidays from Sentinel Comics to all!

Show Notes:

Run Time: 41:13

We have a bunch of great questions today, so after only a few minutes of holiday lies, we get into those questions! And within those questions, we tell a few holiday tales. Enjoy!

(Also, many thanks to Matthew Bender for his delightful dramatic reading! You'll know it when you hear it.)

At the end of the episode, we finally reveal the schedule for January of 2019!

  • Tuesday, January 1st: No episode!
  • Tuesday, January 8th: Episode #96 - A Motley Crew: La Capitán’s Time-Displaced Teammates
  • Tuesday, January 15th: Episode #97 - Story Arc: Baptism by Fire/War of Heliopolis/Horus of Two Horizons
  • Tuesday, January 22nd: Editor's Note #26
  • Tuesday, January 29th: Episode #98 - Post-OblivAeon OblivAeon Environments

See you next year!

Dec 18, 2018

It's time for the Letters Page Listeners' Choice Awards nominations announcement!

Show Notes:

Run Time: 1:35:30

We have a special guest for this episode, and he makes the show even better!

We spend the first portion of this recording discussing the recently announced awards. Once you've listened to all of that - including the most excellent question nominations - it's time to vote on your favorites! Check out the voting form here.

After that, we SHOULD get to the schedule, but we're a week behind on that, so go to the Letters Page Patreon and vote on what episodes will start off 2019. So much voting! (The schedule for January 2019 will be announced in next week's episode.)

And then, after all of those things, we finally get to your questions with the help of our special guest! We start in on the questions at just after the 44 minute mark.

Only one episode left this year, folks! Join us next week for some holiday cheer!

Dec 11, 2018

Let's talk about all the heroes from the OblivAeon Mission Deck!

Show Notes:

Run Time: 1:03:42

Only a few minutes of goofs and gags before we get to a brief overview! Then, just after the 4 minute mark, we're right on to your insightful and exhaustive questions!

The first question goes through ALL of the mission deck heroes, so that takes up the bulk of the episode. The question after that asks about the Be The Gate heroes, who cross over a little with the Mission Deck, but not entirely! Still, fair game.

We will be recording this month's Editor's Note live on Friday, December 14th, and we'll be going over your nominations for the Letters Page Awards then! If you want to be a part of that recording, check out our Patreon!

Dec 4, 2018

From morally grey to just straight-up evil - what could go wrong?!

Show Notes:

Run Time: 1:21:27

After the usual goofing around at the beginning, in a shocking change of pace, we bring back the Overview! There, we do some setting explanation to help place what's going on here, both in the world - or Multiverse, rather - of Sentinel Comics and in the metaverse, as well. We also talk about both Rook Cities. Two? Yes, two. But more about one than the other.

Then, we get to your questions right after the 12 minute mark. And, as has been the case with some recent episodes, we let the story happen bit by bit in the answers to your questions! Good questions, everyone.

Right after the 1 hour and 2 minute mark, Christopher's voice changes to a much more gravelly version. Here's a peek behind the curtain: we lost about 10 minutes of audio from the original recording of this episode. Something weird happened and it was gone. Fortunately, we had very good notes, and as soon as we got back from PAX Unplugged, Christopher and Adam re-recorded that section, and we're actually way happier with the way it turned out this time. Honestly, if we could just re-record every episode 3-5 times before putting the audio live, they'd be even better... but that's ridiculous. Anyway! Christopher's voice was pretty wrecked from the convention, as per usual, but you only have to hear it sounding so rough until around the 1 hour and 13 minute mark.

Thanks for listening, everyone! As ever, check out our Patreon for even more stuff!

Nov 27, 2018

It's time for an episode about a pretty new team of villains from another era!

Show Notes: 

Run Time: 1:22:00

No overview today - it's straight to questions! No dilly-dallying, even! Right down to business!

Our first question is from the creator of the Sentinel Comics Wiki. Hats off to him - that wiki is useful to lots of folks, including us! 

We go on after that letter with its many illuminating questions to more great questions from great question writers!

At the end of the episode, we mention the first annual 2018 Letters Page Podcast awards! More information in last week's Editor's Note, and here's the form for Nominations!

This week is PAX Unplugged, and much of GTG will be there, including Christopher, Trevor, and Maggie! If you're on the Letters Page Patreon, we've got an event going on Saturday evening: learn more here! We hope to see you there!

Nov 20, 2018

Nov 13, 2018

A group of characters you know as heroes but in this other reality are far from it!

Show Notes:

Run Time: 1:22:51

After some brief goofs, we give a brief overview of the Inversiverse and what we're talking about specifically today. Then, we get right to your questions at only 6 minutes into the episode!

Around the 14 minute mark, at the end of the first question, we get a request for pictures of each member of Perestroika for the upcoming episode. I put them on the Patreon, but available to not just Patreon supporters, but everyone! Check them out here.

The second question takes us on a journey through the story of Seraph, who ends up being way cooler than anyone expected. Why are your expectations of us so low? Give us some credit here, folks!

Whew! That's a lot of story telling! More questions give away even more, which is what we're here to do.

If you have any questions for the Perestroika episode, get them in now, as we're recording that on this Friday! And the voting for the December episodes is already happening on the Letters Page Patreon!

Nov 6, 2018

Two of our favorite magical friends!

Show Notes:

Run Time: 50:20

Hey folks! We're into the new format, and we're still having fun and revealing things that we haven't said before, so that's great!

After some nonsense times at the beginning, we get right into talking about where the stories we've told of these two land in the history of Sentinel Comics, plus also some other high-speed recapping! 

That goes right up until it's time for your questions, about 8 minutes into the episode.

After many delightful questions, we actually do a now-rare future section just after the 45 minute mark. And there's a notable reveal there!

We've already done some restructuring over on The Letters Page Patreon, but there are more tweaks to come over the course of this month. It's easier than ever to jump into our community now, and we're excited to see folks join the Discord every day! Hope to see you there (but if you can't no worries - we still love you)!

Oct 30, 2018

It's time for some terror!

Show Notes:

Run Time: 1:07:21

OK, we do start off pretty silly, but don't worry, we get to questions in the first few minutes, and then we are very serious and very scary.

No, that's not true, the first few minutes of questions are still silly. But then! A scary story! In fact, spoilers, if you don't like scary stories, you probably want to skip the tale from roughly the 7 minute mark to just before 38 minutes in. 

And then, on to more questions and stories!

Near the end of the episode, we talk about the arts that Adam has been doing and posting on his Twitter this month. They're all here on the Sentinel Wiki!

This is the last episode of October, so we read ALL of the names for the last time! Also, restructuring of our Patreon is happening later today, so look forward to that!

Oct 25, 2018

Big stuff in this update! Letters Page AND OblivAeon!

Show Notes:

Run Time: 1:55:58

We start off by talking about this very podcast! First, the format of the show itself: we'll be recording every Friday (barring scheduling conflicts) and we'll be putting out episodes on Tuesdays. This includes Editor's Notes, which will be recorded live for all Patreon supporters. Also, Extrasodes are going the way of the fondly remembered Interludes. Farewell, Extrasodes! Focusing this show down to the key elements. Each month, we'll have an episode every Tuesday, with the exception of the second to the last Tuesday of the month, which will be an Editor's Note. Makes sense? Good!

Next up, we cover the way that you can be a part of The Letters Page and support the show! The Letters Page Patreon is getting boiled down just to the important stuff as well. Thus, starting next month, there will be two Patreon levels:

  • $1: Collectors: You get access to the Patreon, including the live Editor's Notes and anything else we post exclusively to the Patreon.
  • $10: Contributors: This is full access. Topic submission and voting, interactions with Christopher and Adam on the Discord and live interactions during the Editor's Notes recordings.

We're excited to open up this community to more people this way, and also focus the show a bit, as well! Look forward to the Patreon changes next week!

Then, we get to the schedule for November:

  • Tuesday, November 6th: Episode #90 - NightMist & Harpy
  • Tuesday, November 13th: Episode #91 - Inversiverse: Prime Wardens
  • Tuesday, November 20th: Editor's Note #24
  • Tuesday, November 27th: Episode #92 - Perestroika

After all that business, we get to your questions at around the 15 minute mark! And wow, do you have a lot more questions about OblivAeon!

At the very end of the episode, we mention that an expansion for Spirit Island is currently on Kickstarter! It's awesome! Go check it out!

Thank you so much for listening. We'll catch you next week for a SPOOOoooOOOoooOOOKY episode!
