WEIRD EPISODE! First, a little bit on how 2023 went for Mage: The Podcast, then a lost conversation with ⁠Noah H⁠ of ⁠The Story Told⁠ on ⁠Chronicles of Darkness⁠ and RPG art.

Show Notes:

• Noah’s Wraith 20 overview⁠ ⁠
• Noah on Instagram
• ⁠⁠Noah on Artstation
• ⁠⁠Noah on Facebook

The Sandman⁠ is one of the most highly lauded comic runs to have ever been published, what can we take from it for our games? Pook and Adam discuss mood, inspiration, and ⁠T.S. Eliot⁠ in this edition of Reality Deviant Book Club.

Show Notes

• ⁠The Annotated Sandman⁠, which was a late 90s/early 00s passion project to capture as many internal connections and external references as possible, issue by issue
• ⁠TXT archive⁠ from an earlier version of the website
• Vertigo released their own very expensive series with the same name, with “proper” annotations, but… using the power of the early internet to situate and discover the series’ intertextuality felt a lot more magical.
