Introducing the Dark Age of Comic Books

The Sewer Mutant podcast is back at last! And I'm joined by a new co-host, John Ekleberry, who you might remember from the Sewer Mutant episode on James O'Barr. We're starting a podcast companion to the History of the Dark Age of Comics article series. This first episode is an introduction to the topic, then we'll be discussing a number of Dark Age milestones. Next up we'll discuss some precursors of the Dark Age, with an episode on Alack Sinner followed by a two-parter on Warrior magazine.

Plus, expect the latest X-Men news, epic interviews, and plenty of mutant mayhem. If you love the X-Men, you won’t want to miss this new season! Explicit A Call to Ruin Adventures in Lollygagging Adventures in Lollygagging is a group of silly folks who create, record, and live-stream content for several tabletop roleplaying games. In our audio-only podcasts and our video content via Twitch and YouTube, we focus on character-driven stories, bad decisions, and an abundance of absurdity. We have featured games like Zweihänder, Mutant Year Zero, Vaesen, Heart, Shinobigami, and Electric Bastionland, with plenty more games on the horizon to play. Our first audio-only show, A CALL TO RUIN, uses the Zweihänder RPG system and follows begrudging medieval adventurers as they navigate the politics, mysteries, and malevolent forces threatening Verdam, a penal colony near the top of the world. Lured by a missing persons job, the adventurers become embroiled in a dangerous uprising, all while unknown whispers and songs beckon inhabitants northward, beyond civilization and towards doom. New episodes release every Monday. Explicit
