Time for a speedy story! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:15:49 I'll tell you, I'm not sure how it is that last week's episode ended up under 90 minutes and this one took over two hours, but here we are! We go into the publication history of Friction a bit, dig into a few of her other stories, and then start crafting this one, a brand new tale that we create entirely on the air! Oh, and because I know Walking Target will want it, here's the spelling of a name: Maisie Murphy We're into June now! Send us your questions about this episode, future episodes, and anything Sentinel Comics that you want to know, using this link! Next week's episode will be a space opera?! How will we pull that off?! Join us and find out!

Are you ready for the New Standard? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:25:36 We're back at it, and oh so happy to be here! After last week's long-awaited return to voting, we're excited to announce an upcoming schedule! For the first time in over a year! Tuesday, June 2nd: Episode #319 - Writers' Room: A non-Vengeance Friction story Tuesday, June 9th: Episode #320 - Writers' Room: Cosmic Tales: An intense space opera story Tuesday, June 16th: Episode #321 - Writers' Room: The Rise of the Sixth Sun Tuesday, June 23rd: Editor's Note #90 Tuesday, June 30th: Episode #322 - Writers' Room: Rambler calling in a debt pulls a character out of a different fight A thrilling June to look forward to! Then, we get right to it, and the Benchmark stories unfold quickly and relatively smoothly. We have some ideas of what happens (or at least where it goes) in advance, but we discover and create a lot on the air, as well! We very happy to be back in the swing of things. Join us next week for Episode #319, which is a Friction story that's not part of the Vengeance event! Get your questions in here! And don't forget to check out our Patreon!

A triumphant return! But is it ever that easy? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:56:53 So much to cover! We're back, we're excited, and we have so many things to share with you! We're working on more game content, more Sentinels stories, and a whole Multiverse to get spun back up on! Adam and I have not been idle, and we can't wait to give you more Multiverse to save and to savor as soon as we can. Greater Than Games is back, as well! Learn more at www.greaterthan.games! Please do consider joining us on The Letters Page Patreon, as we need your support now more than ever. The topic of this episode came not from Patreon voting, as we usually do, but from the moment we find ourselves in. However, next week, our episode is "A Day in the Life: Benchmark", as we were supposed have done over a year ago. What comes after that? You decide! We've got topics up for voting on a poll! We need your opinions! We'll announce what upcoming schedule you've determined next episode. Whew! Then, after all that, we get back to telling stories! We had some knowledge and ideas about this Legacy & The Wraith story in advance, but we craft a lot of it live on air. It's both a return to form and also a chance for us to knock the rust off, as we're a little out of practice for some reason. Thanks for holding on, sticking with us, and tuning in once again!

A simple episode... about machines? Sort of? Show Notes: Run Time: 2:03:55 We dig into the past of the Order of the Simple Machine, both in comics and in our creative process. We reveal things we've never before said publicly! And then we make up new stuff, too! Join us next week for a live show! We love it when people ask questions live! Genuinely!

Let's Bust some Bunks! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:08:17 Oh no, another long one! Well, at least you get a number of villains out of it! And a couple issues! And a bunch of letters answered! So, pretty usual fare. This story certainly didn't land at the time as the writer hoped it would, and would be remembered largely for the big robot suit fights. But hopefully you enjoyed the story! That's certainly one of our main goals. Join us next week for an episode about your favorite Wraith fighting your favorite Order of the Simple Machines! (We're pretty sure you don't have any other favorite Orders of the Simple Machines. Pretty sure.)

But just who are the April Fools, anyway? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:21:28 We (and just who is we are in unclear) do some goofs, tell some stories, and read your letters! It's just a totally normal episode! Join us next week for more normal episode times, in which we record an episode about the Bunker Busters!

We don't want to bug you, so please bear with us... Show Notes: 1:48:49 Adam and I kick it off with talking about how we haven't done a good job with Bugbear... and the ultimate result by the end of the episode is this cover, so, take that as you will. Regardless, we definitely do a bunch of Bugbear work, and answer a bunch of Bugbear letters! Hopefully everyone has a better feel for the character now! We're about to head into April! Hold on tight!

Another live show! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:06:07 Over two hours?! Yes, but just barely! Look, we had a lot to go through, and that makes us all smartthinkers, don't you think? Here's the upcoming schedule: Tuesday, April 1st: Episode #314 - Writers' Room: A digital foe in a digital realm Tuesday, April 8th: Episode #315 - Writers' Room: Bunker Busters Tuesday, April 15th: Episode #316 - Writers' Room: Wraith vs the Order of the Simple Machines Tuesday, April 22nd: Editor's Note #90 SCIENCE Tuesday, April 29th: Episode #317 - Writers' Room: A Day in the Life: Benchmark We finally get through a backlog of questions from a very smart thinking listener, and we also take a pile of live questions from the chat! Join us next week for a Bugbear story!

We're number 1! Or, at least, the issue this episode is about is #1! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:29:29 Hey! It's time to introduce a character who has been around for a long time but we've barely talked about! No, not Ra. We've said so much about him. Instead, we finally talk about Calypso! (And just in time for the upcoming Bugbear episode...) But before that, join us next week for a live show! Are you on The Patreon? You should be! Join us!

Vampires! In March? I guess so! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:38:25 We get to do a bunch of storytelling things in this story that we've wanted to attempt for some time and haven't really had the opportunity to do so. Does this episode mark the beginning of a new era of The Letters Page? Well, I wouldn't go THAT far. But we did have a lot of fun, and we hope you enjoy the story! Join us next week for a Writers' Room episode about Calpyso and Ra!
