Chicagoland friends, I have a favor to ask. I have a pro bono client, a Black woman, who is currently facing charges for allegedly pointing a gun at her abusive ex - who admitted to raping her. I would love if there could be a show of support for her at her next few court dates.

It's a bit of a bummer that the story today has been "look at this absolute doofus of a senator" and not "Jack Smith once again credibly accuses the president of many serious crimes"

I'm a freelance writer/designer who's worked on lots of games, but I don't know that I've ever been credited under that title.

Hi, I'm looking to speak to people who have left games journalism in the last few years and have gone onto do something else. DMs are open, or luke@aftermath.site, thanks!

Readers! I just backed my pal Steve Sullivan's Kickstarter for his four Frost Harrow books. You have two days left to join me! www.kickstarter.com/projects/sds...

FROST HARROW - BOOKS 1-4

Fast-reading modern gothic horror series set in the late 1990s, filled with dark secrets, sensuality, and supernatural monsters.

Still, getting to toss both Spider-Men, both Daredevils, and the Punisher into an adventure? That’s the sweet spot for sure. Go grab it, read it, and — most of all — have fun with it!

Matt Forbeck @forbeck.com · 22/09/2026

As for the book, it’s a wild adventure that takes the heroes into the depths of Manhattan to figure out who’s messing with the Hulk and why. As a huge Spider-Man since I started to read, it was a childhood dream to write this — but, man, I could say that about every book in this entire line.

Matt Forbeck @forbeck.com · 22/09/2026

That includes Sven Larsen, Jeff Youngquist, and Tim Dillon, but most especially our editor Brian Overton and our producer and project lead C.J. Cervantes. You couldn’t ask for a better super-group to work on super-hero games with.

... and I look forward to him continuing to be a part of tabletop games for many years to come. So, thanks to all of those fine folks, but also to the rest of the Marvel team.

Matt Forbeck @forbeck.com · 22/09/2026

It’s also the last book to go out under the auspices of assistant producer Amir Osman, who just took a job overseeing tabletop games at Humble Bundle. While I’m sorry to see such a great friend and teammate go, I’m delighted that he found such a great new gig...

Matt Forbeck @forbeck.com · 22/09/2026

This is the last item for the game with C.B. Cebulski as the editor-in-chief, as he’s moving out to Japan to head up the new Marvel manga line. making way for Steve Wacker to take over. Many thanks to C.B. for all his support over the years, and I’m looking forward to more things ahead with Steve!

Paco Medina and Jesus Aburtov did a wonderful job with that stunning cover, and Brian Patterson hammered out some incredibly cool and useful maps. Ray Vallese’s sharp eyes kept us on track, and Simeon Cogswell’s delightful graphic design tied it all together.

I also get a “based on story” credit for the 8-page comic up front that was written by longtime Miles Morales scribe Cody Ziglra, with art by the amazing Ruarí Coleman, colors by Fer Sifuentes-Sujo, and letters by Travis Lanham, all edited by lead Spider-Man editor (and great gamer) Nick Lowe!

The latest adventure for the Marvel Multiverse Role-Playing Game — Spider-Man: Midtown Mayhem — hits game stores today and comic stores tomorrow. It’s a 64-page comic-book-sized adventure that I wrote, with my son Marty doing his regular fantastic job with the character profiles.

If I miss one of you wonderful people this time around, though, it looks like I should be back this way in December, so we'll have another chance to figure it out then.

I'm having a great time in Seattle, having secret meetings with great people about secret things that I hope to be able to tell everyone all about soon.. ish. Meanwhile, I'm also trying to squeeze in time with as many friends as I can.

Gamers! @gregstolze.bsky.social is about to launch a new RPG on Kickstarter: THOMAS JEFFERSON'S SPEEDWAY HELL. That should be enough to get you to check it out, but I've seen a prototype of it. You're going to want this. www.kickstarter.com/projects/gre...

kickstarter.com

Coming soon: THOMAS JEFFERSON'S SPEEDWAY HELL: Dangerous Playtest Edition

It's a tabletop RPG where sinners race through Hell to win brief moments of peace. It's handled with tremendous silliness.

The first time I was about to blow a deadline was for a D&D 3E book called THE UNAPPROACHABLE EAST. I called Rich Baker at Wizards, and I explained to him that my wife was in the hospital on full bedrest, pregnant with quadruplets. To Rich's eternal credit, he said, "Take all the time you need."
