I did a guest card for DUNGEON TRYOUTS, a cool new party game made by my friend Peter Chiykowski! There's only one day left to back the Kickstarter and get my card (and all the other cards which aren't as good as mine) https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/rockpapercynic/dnd-party-game

Cartoon-style comics panels 1: Cthulhu says, 'Puny mortal! I will flood your mind with vision of my dark realm to unravel your soul and shatter your sanity forever.' 2: Human says, 'That's cute.' 3: Cthulhu says, 'Wait, why isn't it working?' 4: Human says (holding up mobile phone), 'I'm from the internet. Look what crosses my feed on a daily basis.' 5: Cthulhu, eyes wide with shock, says, 'Your realm is truly a womb of horrors.' By Peter Chiyowski aka @RockPaperCynic

Encuentra a alguien que te mire como tú miras Netflix. ¿Te refieres a estar molesto e inquieto por la creciente comprensión de que el escapismo solo ofrece una distracción fugaz del agobiante aburrimiento de estar vivo? Iba a decir: «Como si fueras un Original». Pero honestamente, eso suena más exacto. Por Peter Chiykowski, también conocido como @RockPaperCynic ROCKPAPERCYNIC.COM

A RockPaperCynic comic showing two black-robed and hooded figures carrying an apparently deceased body between them. One hooded figure has a scowl; but, the other appears cheerful. To their right is a red pentagram drawn on a floor, inscribed in a red circle, with one each of five smoldering black candles set on the floor at the star's points. "A friend will help you move. "A good friend will help you move a body. "A great friend will help you move a body to the summoning circle in the abandoned church this Saturday at midnight. "So let's hear a '[Lovecraftian Eldritch gibberish I'm not transcribing]' for friendship!"
