Episode 73 – Steel and Magic Adventuring Company

Steel and Magic Adventuring Company

Every Player has memories of their first character, their first adventure, and their first adventuring party.  For some, those memories are brief – a goblin spear here, a trapped hallway there, a prick of a GM behind the screen, etc. – while for others they last weeks, months, and even years.  For us here at To-Ag Studios, that first true adventuring party lasted for half a decade, and in that five years, WE MUNCHKINED THE F— OUT!!!  Join us this week as we step back through the edition wars and discuss the origins and developments of our original Dungeons & Dragons characters.  From obscenely powerful equipment and weapons to an utter lack of regard for those silly things called rules, we reminisce (and surprise ourselves too!) about the old adventuring days.  Dial up those combat bonuses, stack on those magical enhancements, and be sure to keep a chipmunk skull close at hand as we discuss the Steel and Magic Adventuring Company on a brand new episode of Monkey in the Cage!

History, Violence, and Smiles? – HANGBoY by Pao

After spending an awesome weekend geeking out at Stan Lee’s Comikaze and having the opportunity to record tomorrow’s episode with one of our favorite listeners, I realized I’ve run a little short on time to write my post on Skyrim: Dragons vs. Vikings: Part II.  However, the time spent at Comikaze gave me a chance to catch up with one of my favorite independent artists, Pao, the creator of HANGBoY.  I first had the opportunity to check out his unique take on history (and particularly the Second World War) at San Diego Comic-Con in 2011 and again at WonderCon 2012, and now he’s definitely on my to-see list of any convention we happen to both attend.  Why?  Because his work IS AWESOME!

Denver Comic Con 2012

The event I have been waiting for has finally come and gone, Denver Comic Con 2012 was amazing. This was its inaugural year, and they rose to the challenge. I will have to admit that I haven’t been to a convention in four years, so I was even more excited just to be able to go to a convention, let alone one that turned out to be so great. Myself, my girlfriend, and a friend of hers, all had a great time at the convention, so I present to you a summary of the weekend and some of my experiences. If you would like a more detailed look at the event from my eyes, feel free to come visit my site:  thegeekpath.com.

Movie Review: Comic-Con Episode IV: A Fan’s Hope

I have been anxious to see Comic Con Episode IV:  A Fan’s Hope ever since I heard the internet chatter some time ago.  So, when I saw that it was available for rent through Amazon Streaming I clicked away my $6.99 and spent my (slightly extended) lunch break in Nerdvana.

I actually try to avoid doing reviews here at MitC, mainly because I feel like opinions are like a-holes and well… you know the rest.  But, I suppose it’s sort of my job to let the readers and listeners know my opinion on… stuff.  So, here goes…
