Eeh, I’m going to disagree somewhat. This is a pretty expensive list for newbie DMs.

First off, the Starter Set (either original flavor or the new Stranger Things flavor) is superlative, with a great, stripped-down ruleset that gives you all the basics and an adventure. The adventure in the Starter Set is easily the…

Eeh, I’m going to disagree somewhat. This is a pretty expensive list for newbie DMs.

First off, the Starter Set…

Taller. Everyone but him is actually standing on a box, Tom Cruise style.

Two years in, Vanilla WoW also had Onyxia’s Lair, Zul’Gurub, Naxxaramas, the Dragons of Nightmare, both AQ raids and cross-realm battlegrounds (AB, AV and WSG. Plenty to do.

Holy shit. They only have 3,600 Instagram followers. Lots of high school students have more than that.

And they got fucking written up in Travel + Leisure.

They sure can do the self-promotion game, that’s for sure.

It’s building a brand by which to sell other, cheaper, crap.

Very few of Gwyneth Paltrow’s audience live her lifestyle, but she can still sell them the image. And jade vagina eggs.

See, I love Maus — to the extent one can love something that makes me want to lie down in a dark room and be sad for a very long time — but I don’t know.

First, it started being serialized in 1980, before being collected in 1991. So if we go by the start date, it doesn’t work as a demarcation point, since it basically…

More Archie Panjabi in everything, please.

You don’t see that in a continuum going from the CCA reformation, including DC and Marvel’s drug addiction stories, more grown-up mainstream horror comics including Swamp Thing and, past X-Men/New Teen Titans, to the Born Again/Batman: Year One/Dark Knight Returns/Watchman years?

I think it’s an outgrowth of what was…

More mature comics, including Dark Knight Returns, the classic Vertigo titles, etc., seem more like the natural outgrowth of the 1970s comics, rather than something new. (Heck, I was reading Spectacular Spider-Man through the 1980s, and they were getting more mature all the time, despite never getting the same level…

The second incarnation of the X-Men didn’t fundamentally change the industry, although it did pull it out of a financial tailspin. That’s not a great demarcation point.

I think the argument of the reform and weakening of the CCA makes more sense, since that paves the way for the more mature storytelling of the X-Men…

Meh. Kirby went on to do very Marvelesque comics for DC. While the New Gods, etc., were great, I don’t think they fundamentally altered the trajectory of comics in the same way that the Amazing Spider-Man did or DC explicitly rejecting the Golden Age heroes in favor of more modern takes on the characters.

I also think…

We demand Fippy Darkpaw.

To be fair, EQ1's graphics were rough even in 1999.

That said, if Daybreak were to make a mobile client that worked with this game, I would definitely install it, just for the nostalgia factor. My computer would laugh at me if I actually installed this in 2019, though.

A change to the Comics Code is a demarcation point I can get behind. That would put the end of the Silver Age at 1971, with the struggles over the depictions of drug use leading to a more liberal CCA, unless you were using the word “zombie,” which is kind of hilarious.

The Bronze Age label has always been kind of shaky for me. There’s a clear break between the Gold and Silver Ages (“Flash of Two Worlds”), but the lines of demarcation between Silver and Bronze and Bronze and Modern don’t really have clear moments like that.

I think it’s more realistic to say, as was previously common…

There’s a decent argument to be made that Uber and Lyft came along about 10 years too early.

It apparently was just a picture shot in a cover art session she liked, partly because her mom had the same mole and a lot of this album is about her dealing with her relationship with her mom. The similarity to her last album cover was a coincidence.

Not to mention that she didn’t really qualify to get into USC.

Because their entire worldview is that any problem, or imagined problem, they face is someone’s fault. (Spoiler alert: That someone is never themselves.)

AMC would never run a concept into the ground, years after a show had run out of creative steam.
