#nodwick — Public Fediverse posts

I'm finally cataloguing my old #RPGComic collection (Knights of the Dinner Table, Dork Tower, Nodwick) and it's fun about whom you stumble in the side material (Phil Masters, Scott Kurtz, Philip Reed and S. John Ross for example).

Now a #Nodwick issue is making me wonder is me wonder: is that Adrian Czajkowski - an "up and coming new webcomic artist from the UK" - is the same as the writer Adrian Tchaikovsky of SF writing fame five years before his first published book? Probably not, but it's fun to research old vanished web stuff. I've been hitting a bit of a wall though. The only actual images of the comic "The Big Stick" I can find are from an Italian fan translation:

The Wayback Machine has still a listing for comics, but no actual images:

I guess I'll never know. Curiosity is a fool's game. 😅​

Just was thinking about #Nodwick again. These used to run in Dragon magazine, before getting their own #comic book.
There used to be a bustling market for roleplaying related #comics, but somehow that part of the hobby kinda disappeared?
