This four-panel sketch is by Tony ESP. He shares art regularly on social media and is absolutely worth checking out. Right now the demon Dythrar is envious that everyone on the planet seems to be playing Red Dead Redemption 2 but at least, thanks to Gro’shayr, he has a Switch.

We gamers have potent alter-egos!
Cartoonist and truth-teller N00b mama hit the nail on the head again with this two-panel strip. How many gamers emphasise with this? Who else here dislikes dealing with unhappy customers but whom can happily arrange a village’s defences against the goblin horde? I know people who won’t cook inside but who are adept at the […]
Ezio was better
Gamers can be fiercely loyal people at times. This sense of attachment extends to their favourite TV shows, movies or computer games. Take Assassin’s Creed, for example, a game with many sequels, even a movie, and which has introduced some great characters. Keen to stress it’s just a joke, Deviant Artist R-Redbob drew this comic […]
Gamers have encountered plenty of deaths in their adventures!
Over at Dorkly Tristan Cooper and Andy Kluthe have struck truth gold enough. These are the RPG deaths that you have a very high chance of encountering on so many adventures. I still remember [redacted]’s death in Final Fantasy VII. It was very much the inevitable demise of a (possible) love interest to portray the […]
Bravery: D&D vs CoC
Roleplaying games are often about bravery. Characters charge into danger in order to rescue those weaker than themselves, to get to the loot first or just because it’s the right thing to do. But bravery comes in all different shapes and forms. In Dungeons & Dragons, your adventuring party equipped with magic weapons and divine […]
Transaction Denied! The geek blocking meme
“Meme” has to be one of my favourite neologisms. Did you know Richard Dawkins coined it in 1976? That’s 42 years ago! Did you also know that in 1904 the biologist Richard Semon suggested “Mneme”, to mean almost the same thing? These memes are far less academic. These are practical memes. The transaction denied meme […]
Comic strip: Adjust
Have you become a grump? This comic strip from Lunar Baboon is a clever reminder. Sometimes it is better to put down baggage, switch off those parts of the brain which might over analyse, and just let yourself enjoy life.
The 15 worst character classes in D&D by rank
Picking a character class is no simple matter. Not only do you need to have a character you can have fun with but you need to contribute to the success of the group. Wait, no, scratch that. This is a joke. There is no such pressure. Just pick a character that fits with the game […]
Your health is a campaign: RPG roles in the body
Owlturd Comix hit the nail on the head with this strip. It looks at different parts of the body and the role they perform. The heart heals, aww. The brain is a sneaky rogue, always coming up with cunning plans. The stomach deals DPS, which is as fast as I can my burritos. The liver? […]
Your DM is better than any dating service
This strip is the work of Light Roast Comics. The site is less than a year, only founded in February. We’re reminded that ‘send me a DM’ clearly hasn’t changed its meaning since Gary Gygax coined the phrase Dungeon Master. What else could people be thinking? If you like the style pop over to teespring […]
