Comics

Spawn: Creation by Todd McFarlane
#1 Questions Part 1

I've always been curious about Spawn but never actually read any. With Humble Bundle currently offering a massive load of the character's back catalogue for a bargain price (as is their way), I decided it made sense to read this collection that's been sat on my bookshelf since I-don't-know-when — it's the debut volume, collecting issues #1 to #5 of the comic. (I own the "collector's edition", which I think is just hardback. Whether or not the introduction is exclusive to this volume too, I don't know, but Goodreads say the pagecount is the same, so perhaps not (they're not actually very reliable for facutal information like that).)

Games

Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars
Another hour or so.

The Leaf Riders of Wrenwood
12–18 March 2024
Having failed to catch up last Sunday as planned, the amount of days I'm behind has mounted up to an even higher level. So, once again, I've played a chunk today and intend to play the rest... tomorrow? A work day? Oh God. Well, we'll see. I need to put the time/effort in somewhere to finally get caught up, and then aim to stay on top of it more.

Videos

Talks Machina
#49 'Curious Beginnings'
#50 'A Show of Scrutiny'
Catching up on the earlier episodes of Talks Machina about Campaign Two before going ahead with the main show too. (One thing I've observed already: it's funny/weird how much they joke about hating the host, considering what happened later.)
[Watch episodes #49 and #50 (again) on Internet Archive.]
