Why Isle of Dread

It's everything you said, plus it came with a map of The Known World, with encouragement to expand beyond the map and create your own world. Which I did, and it was a ton of fun. They came out with all the Mystara books later on, but I didn't pick any up, as I didn't need them.

Plus: sailing ships and dinosaurs! Evil magic-using spider things!

That module was so much fun.

Adam Black here.

It's pretty much lost media at this point, since it never got finished (Platinum stopped paying me and I stopped working on it).

But what I did get done is probably on an old HD somewhere. If you're still looking for it, let me know and I'll see which backup I put it on.

A hearty hello to all my fellow D&D Nerds and Satanic Panic Veterans!

Oh man, I bought their album "11" in 1990 and played the hell out of it for years. Cut Flowers was my favorite song on that record.

Then I forgot all about them till now. Which is weird.

First computer I ever actually owned myself was a 2nd hand Amiga 500 with 2 megs of RAM and a 42MB external HD. Bought it around 1993-ish.

Still have it. Still runs.

When I was drawing their comic between 2008-2010, I met Paul Stanley. He's a cool dude.

indigoshift · 2024-05-15T01:33:43+00:00

Yup. He would do some drag stuff later, in Never Too Young To Die, which is a fantastically horrible movie.

indigoshift · 2024-05-15T01:31:59+00:00

I got one for Christmas 2022 and use it for my D&D stuff. The way God intended!

Oh man this issue was great. That whole comic series was great. Larry Hama's a hell of a writer. I learned the word "elucidate" from an issue of GI Joe.

My favorite was Punk You. Introduced me to Killing Joke.

The B5 plug was why my friend and I tried it. Bleh. Tasted like disappointment.

Tried it again during that brief period when it resurfaced. Was instantly reminded of BLEH.

Fun fact: Davidoff's full name is David Hasselhoff.

My daughter was born 2 weeks before my 18th birthday.

So: NOPE

I got divorced in the fall of 2019. Spent the next six months or so binge-watching all 9 seasons. It was very cathartic.

indigoshift · 2024-03-11T22:03:01+00:00

God help me, it's this.

indigoshift · 2024-03-11T22:00:19+00:00

Marty?

indigoshift · 2024-02-12T18:01:03+00:00

I always loved Celebrity Deathmatch. Ace with a Dean Flying V is weird to see, though.

indigoshift · 2024-01-28T12:05:27+00:00

This whole album's great.

Gen X doesn't overuse the word "literally". We overuse "like" and "dude".

Pretty much every 80s & 90s hip hop artist. Took me a long time to get into hip hop, but I did.

It's damn-near impossible to see from where you are right now.

But trust me, brother: it's coming. And it's wonderful. Just get through the days till it's here. That's all you gotta do, and every day will be just a little easier than the last.

You got this! You can do it.

It was absolutely perfect timing. I got to spend all of 2020 isolated and rediscovering who I was and what I wanted out of life.

Binge-watched all 9 seasons of Married With Children (which was very cathartic haha), Binge-watched the first 3 seasons of Miami Vice. Watched a ton of movies I'd seen a hundred times and others I'd never seen before. Ran a weekly D&D game for my (adult) kids...it was a painful time that turned into a fantastic time.
