Welcome to The Letters Page!
In this podcast, creators Christopher Badell and Adam Rebottaro tell real stories about fake comics! Based on their hit card game Sentinels of the Multiverse, each hour+ episode explores a hero, villain, event, or something else entirely from the wide world of Sentinel Comics. They also answer your questions!

Episodes post weekly on Tuesday mornings at 9 AM, Central Time.

Welp, guess we'll go mad!

Show Notes:

Run Time: 1:18:38

It's been so long since we've done an episode like this! How do they even work? We end up doing a bit of "Creative Process" and "Writers' Room" type stuff in the Overview section, as that's how we work best, apparently. As a result, you get lots of backstory, some points of interest, and a cool story or two! And all within about half an hour! Hope that answers all your questions on xxtz'Hulissh! We certainly don't expect much in the way of follow-up episodes to this one... (that is yet another one of our lies, in case you weren't sure).

At around the 28 minute mark, we get to your questions, which surely answer any and every question you could possibly have about xxtz'Hulissh now. Whew! Glad we got that covered.

Next week's episode is the long-awaited werewolf stories Creative Process... but we've already recorded it! So, get your "Hero/Villain team-up" and "Young Legacy foes" questions in! Plus, any follow-up xxtz'Hulissh questions, I guess. If any. Not really expecting much in that way, but maybe one or two. Perhaps.

Stay sane, everyone!

That's right! We actually did it! Welcome to the long-awaited and oft-delayed Editor's Note #45!!

Show Notes:

Run Time: 1:38:35

How do we even do this type of episode? We're not sure, so we just kinda wing it. That said, we get to all the stuff. I think. Pretty sure.

Next month is the month of May, which — as everyone knows — is Adam's birth month! Celebrations will be occurring everywhere, and both participation and enjoyment are mandatory! In the episode, Adam attempts to explain the joy of birthdays to Christopher for several minutes. Does it land? You decide, listeners!

Anyway, here's the upcoming schedule:

  • Tuesday, May 4th: Episode #175 - Creative Process: Werewolf Stories
  • Tuesday, May 11th: Episode #176 - Writers’ Room: Hero/Villain Team-Up
  • Tuesday, May 18th: Editor’s Note #46 (TWO IN A ROW?!?!)
  • Tuesday, May 25th: Episode #177 - Creative Process: Young Legacy Foes

A thing we didn't say on the air: right after recording this Editor's Note, we immediately recorded this upcoming Friday's episode all about xxtz'Hulissh! So, any late-coming questions about xxtz'Hulissh will have to wait for follow-up episodes. Probably for the best, as we know the episode we recorded will generate (spawn?) many more questions.

That means, this Friday, we're recording the Creative Process all about Werewolf stories, so get your questions in on that topic ASAP! Ideally by midnight, Thursday the 22nd, as I compile questions early Friday morning before we record. Ask us your wolf questions!

We cover a variety of topics, including but not limited to:

  • OblivAeon
  • Definitive Edition (still on Kickstarter!)
  • Things Christopher and Paul said
  • Playtesting
  • Eyelids
  • Where to wear a flower if you're one specific Endling
  • Some fuchsia menace
  • Names
  • and more!

Don't forget: get your werewolf questions in now! And share word far and wide about this last week of the Sentinels of the Multiverse: Definitive Edition Kickstarter Campaign!

A return to Disparation!

Show Notes:

Run Time: 1:34:54

It's been a long time since we did a Disparation episode, and man, it feels good to be back at it! In the words of our very own Trevor:

Whoa, slow down there, Trevor! Praise of that caliber is likely to go to our heads!

But before we can get into that, we've gotta goof around on a variety of topics, of course. But only for about 7 minutes!

Then, we get into a bunch of backstory, some temporal positioning, and some issue number questing. And then! A story! A story in which motivations run deeper than we even initially realized! 

At just after the 48 minute mark, we get to your many questions. And heck, we almost answer all of them! More or less! Give or take!

We talk very briefly about the cover seen above, as it ended up being a straight forward concept, but wow Adam knocked it out of the park again, right? Damn that looks cool.

Join us this Friday for Editor's Note #45! For real! We mean it! We're really finally going to do that long lost Editor's Note! Nothing's gonna stop us now!

 

Probably.

Time for a nice tall frosty one!

Show Notes:

Run Time: 1:33:19

We do some marketing goofs, at least partially inspired by Sentinels of the Multiverse: Definitive Edition currently on Kickstarter!

But then! We get into telling the story of the issue, which we actually do in a very non-sequential/chronological way! The actual order of the stories in the issue is clear and unpackable, but we get a bit obtuse about it. But that ends up creating some moments that we're particularly proud of. Anyway, enjoy!

After all that storytelling, we get into your questions, starting off with a historically long question from Liz C.! She gets to a lot of the good stuff, and yet we still take even more questions!

And then we talk briefly about the cover, which can be seen above.

Don't forget to check out Sentinels of the Multiverse: Definitive Edition on Kickstarter! And join us next week for our return to Disparation for the first time in a long time!
