This is a tremendous convention in a lovely country filled to the brim with good times, good games, and god-like drinking (Guiness and Jameson's and Murphy's, mostly). It also includes an outstanding charity auction. What can I say? I can NOT recommend this con enough!

WELCOME TO MUD BAY AND DORK TOWER!
DORK TOWER is the comic running three to five times a week at GameSpy.com, weekly at Pyramid online, and monthly in Dragon magazine, Scrye magazine, and GAMES magazine. John's cartoons have also pop up in places like The New York Times, the Washington Post and Star Wars Insider. Dork Tower also a bimonthly comic book published by Dork Storm Press.
DORK TOWER is for anybody who's ever played Dungeons and Dragons, who's ever gone to a Star Trek convention, anyone who suspects that Anime is more than just a passing fad, or anyone who KNOWS one of these people. But it's really for people who know what saving rolls you need to make against a level III Demon, which Classic Trek episodes involved the Prime Directive (and who were the directors), and the names of six minor characters and a dog in the Bubblegum Crisis.
It's the story of Matt, Igor, Ken, Carson the Muskrat (yes, he's a muskrat - and he also happens to be the star of Wild Life) and Gilly, the Perky Goth. They're trapped in a world they never made... but are nevertheless striving to create a realistic yet playable simulation thereof!

MUSKRAT RAMBLINGS - Dork Tower #30
Friday, January 14, 2005
Random thoughts for random times...
The BIG NEWS:
Dork Tower #30 goes to press Tuesday.
It will be in full color!
Yes, color.
Meaning (obviously) Dork Tower will be in color...(less obviously) Dr. Blink and Lethargic Lad will be in color...it's ALL in color...Now if I can just add color to the letters page...hmmmmmm.....
This is my "thank you" to everyone who's supported the comic book over the years.
To help keep costs down a bit, it will be 32 pages long, instead of the usual 40, but it will still have 20 pages of Dork Tower comics in it, as always. and it will still be $2.99, as advertised.
I am editing and re-editing it now.
I think folks will REALLY like this one. I'm personally VERY happy with the story. In its own way, I think it's as good as issue 29, which is one of my all-time favorite stories.
It should be in stores shortly.
Thirty issues.
Wow.
Thank you.
Thank you ALL.

Three days ago, we had a huge snowfall here i... continue rambling.
