So, taking a brief #TeaGame break from deadlines to play a quick round of UNMATCHED by @RestorationGame. Using two characters we have not played yet, possibly the two coolest characters in the game.

Can you guess who they are?

1/
It’s DEADPOOL and BRUCE LEE!

I understand the Bruce set is getting very rare so buy it if you see it!

2/
Neither of these one-character sets comes with a board, so we are using one from the Jurassic Park set #2!

3/
WHO WILL WIN?

4/
The Deadpool cards are ostensibly a deck Wade made himself, and the humor is SPOT-ON.

I know Deadpool, and this is flawless Deadpool.

Also, I think that Scott Summers card might be mocking me.

5/
And the winner?

ME, playing BRUCE LEE!

Guys, UNMATCHED is one of the funnest games out there. Can’t recommend it enough.

Thank you, @RestorationGame!

I have a little topic that I had almost forgotten about, that came to mind recently. A bunch of years ago, before going pro in comics, before Women In Refrigerators, I asked a question of fans, and clearly the answers today would be very different.

Here we go.

1/
When I first got internet in my tiny town, it was expensive and unreliable, but I loved it because it was the first time I could ever talk about my love of comics with other people. At that particular time, there were a lot fewer VOCAL female readers than now, it seemed.

2/
I was absolutely not an activist, nor was I aspiring to be a pro. I was a hairdresser.

But I was curious why it seemed like so few women were talking about reading comics. It took a while to find them...they were out there, but they didn't all hang where the guys did.

We are watching Top Gun, the first one, and I want to live tweet it so bad.

I don’t remember it at all and some of it is really funny for the wrong reasons.
The first thing is…

PRODUCER; Okay, listen up. We got a movie about the best, toughest, most lethal and skilled fighter pilots on earth…how do we convey TAUT STEEL MASCULINITY in our opening scenes?

PRODUCER: GET ME KENNY LOGGINS!
KENNY: I’m here, cinema fellows! What kind of movie is this?

PRODUCER:Listen up, Loggins! This is a fierce, high-tension thriller about the brave men fighting an untamed foe in aerial dogfights with split-second timing.

PRODUCER: WE NEED YOUR ‘HOUSE AT POOH CORNER” MAGIC!

I used to be a fan of board games and rpgs, but drifted away from them for years, coming back in the last couple years.

What’s amazing to me is how much they have evolved. The writing has gone from meh to incredible, and the art is often mind-blowing.

1/
It seems like almost game we open, the art is gorgeous, the components are lovely, and the writing is very high level.

It’s a hobby full of art. Some games are fun to play, even abstract ones, simply because they are so beautiful.

2/
But I feel like there are still people, like I was until recently, who think today’s board games & rpgs are just updated versions of what was available twenty years ago.

They aren’t.

I know some board gamers are still a little shy about talking about their hobby.

Don’t be.
