One last note, we have completely re-designed the Elders of the RuneStone website at http://RuneStoneComic.com! There's also a link on the right side of this blog. Check it out and let us know what you think! As more of the series is released and the story unfolds, we'll add more content, but we don't want to spoil too many surprises too early!

Shooting for Elders of the RuneStone Issue #1 release on Saturday!

Hey all! Sorry to all our Kickstarter backers for the delay on Issue #1, we're working as hard and as fast as we can! Besides this series, our team also has other projects to juggle (as you listeners of the podcast well know) and our lives can get downright INSANE. (It is normal for Robert to go days without sleep just to stay on top of all the demands on his schedule. I am not joking.) On the plus side we are well into the art for the other issues and that's moving along at a steady clip!

That being said, we are doing all within our power to get Issue #1 sent hot to our backers' emails this Saturday! All we have left is the brand spankin'-new cover, see below for the thumbnail sketch! It's going to look amazing in full ink and color!

Thanks to all our fans for your patience, we are so excited to finally share this with the world!!

"Star Joes" Podcast Interview with Robert and Quinn, Pt. I: DARKHAN CITY PODCAST #86

(The full version of this podcast episode is their Episode #72)

Welcome to Episode #86 of the Darkhan City Awesome Comics Culture Podcast!

(click HERE to Subscribe and / or Listen, or HERE to download the individual episode)

Sometimes it's difficult to record episodes on a regular basis because producing comic books is crazy work. In those cases, we steal other podcasts and play them as our own. Like this one: Quinn and Robert were recently interviewed on the "Star Joes" Podcast with Chuck and Ryan, where they talked all about "Elders of the RuneStone" and even got to discuss their "TMNT" love. Sonic Boom!

"The Amazing Spider-man" Review!: DARKHAN CITY PODCAST #84

The Amazing Spider-man

Welcome to Episode #84 of the Darkhan City Awesome Comics Culture Podcast!

(click HERE to Subscribe and / or Listen, or HERE to download the individual episode)

No longer content with only two hosts for these episodes, Quinn and Robert scrape the bottom of the barrel and find podcast nemesis Ben Johnson to join them. Along with their thoughts on the recently released "The Amazing Spider-Man," the dudes also discuss "Tron: Uprising," Quinn's unexpected boost in fame, and the fate of upcoming-yet-delayed blockbuster films. Don't expect too much from these guys, though.

"Adventure Time," "Snow White," "Young Justice," and other Picks: DARKHAN CITY PODCAST #83

 Adventure Time--That horse is whack! It's got poo-brain!

Welcome to Episode #83 of the Darkhan City Awesome Comics Culture Podcast!

(click HERE to Subscribe and / or Listen, or HERE to download the individual episode)

Somehow, Quinn and Robert manage to keep from being long-winded in their praise for several awesome properties and productions. Besides plugging "Avatar: The Legend of Korra," "Snow White and the Huntsman," and other coolness, they host (and welcome further) discussion about the enduring nature of childhood entertainment. It's "Adventure Time"!
