Description: In the quaint college town of Parrish Mills, IN darkness may have found a foothold. Mia Graves, a young witch with a penchant for trouble, and her best friend Riley Whittaker, a charismatic professor at Garrity University, find themselves thrust into a chilling revelation when they stumble upon a corpse drained of blood. As the shadows lengthen, they have to seek out unlikely allies in the hopes of keeping the danger at bay. But the discovery is just the beginning, as a woman from Mia’s mysterious past arrives seeking the same prey — and Mia may not be ready for the complications she brings.

Description: Winter has clawed its way into the heart of Parrish Mills, and something far darker may have come with it. When Mia Graves, a witch with a habit of getting into trouble, and her best friend Riley Whittaker stumble across a grisly scene along the Wabash River, they find it reeks of dark, forbidden magic and has left at least one charred body in its wake.

With the help of young Bobbi Crawford, the further Mia and Riley dig into the events that took place on that cold Indiana morning, the more dire their circumstances reveal themselves to be. Between a stolen grimoire and a group of young witches who may not know how dangerous their actions are, shadows loom in the dark of winter.

And one of those shadows may be more dangerous than anyone imagined.

Description: There are some rules in life: What goes up must come down, a penny saved is a penny earned, and most importantly – the main character in an action film can do just about anything if the FX budget is high enough.Super Awesome Action Heroes (SAAH) is a table top Role Playing Game System designed to emulate Action Films and the cinematic experience. SAAH requires, by rules, for players to describe what they’re doing in detail, and forces even the most dedicated power-gamer… to actually Role Play most of the time.

This is the revised second edition of the game, which includes the optional advanced combat rules expansion. Additional (free) expansions can be found here.

Description: Across the country, every day, there are ordinary geeks and nerds planning fandom events. Be they scifi cons, comic cons, gaming cons, anime cons, furry cons, or some other kind of con I can’t think of… odds are, they’re events put on as labors of love. Or spite. Sometimes it’s spite.

UnCONventional is the story of one such convention, put on by a group of volunteers in a Northwestern Wisconsin college town. Every year they run a con despite their differences, and every year it seems to work out.

Mostly. Barely. Sort of.

This volume collects the first four years of the comic along with additional commentary and notes.

Description: Whether you’ve been to science fiction cons, gaming cons, comic cons, or anime cons – you know these people. These are the poor fools who check your badge, point you towards the rest rooms and hand you your program guide. They are con staffers, and if you’ve never been behind the curtain, you have no idea what the world you’re missing looks like. Well, you might, if you’ve read this comic. Mostly. Chapter Five sees some old faces leave and some new faces come to the front. Our plucky heroes face challenges from a feuding college anime club to their own personal lives. The stakes may be as low as they come, but that never stopped anyone from caring too much.
