More about our newly powered up Southwest Sentinels http://theletterspage.libsyn.com/episode-112-void-guard-follow-up
Loved the sponsor gag. :D This was a real good episode for getting into the nitty gritty of some of the card art, filling in gaps in the stories. When we first heard about Void Guard on the Letters Page, I don't think their decks were out. Hopefully we'll get more dives like this into the final round of Sentinels content.
“This letter continues”…or, “The slaughter continues”?
It’s pretty obvious to me that the “golden orb” Doc gives Writhe…it’s a pill!
This episode is semi-accidentally also the Oblivion Shards episode, since no other characters are walking around using shards - Proletariat and the Brothers Cosmic were transformed by exposure to shards, but none of them kept these and continued being transformed by them. A thing I really love about OblivAeon is that he’s not just a grand cosmic destroyer, he’s a creator of things which destroy. The shards are trying to turn all the Void Guardians into Scions, and they’re all resisting, some better than others. It’s really cool.
I fully endorse and share Adam’s point on Shower Strangers. If I have to be naked in a room where another man is also naked, I would e substantially happier to be killed with a knife over any other possible interaction.
