We've recorded a Table Chatter, and we're dropping it as a bonus episode for Patrons for a limited time!

Ben introduced Aaron and Greg to the Image comic series DIE by Kieron Gillen and Stephanie Hans. In DIE, a group of six teens got sent to the world of their RPG in the 90s. Only five came back a few years later, and now in 2017, the remnant have returned to their world to confront their pasts and their futures. In addition, Kieron has started to develop an RPG version of the series. We talk the comic, our own pasts with comic books as a whole, the comic and how it interacts with RPGs, and the beta itself.

Kieron's already got over 250 pages of the beta for DIE available for free online, and on itch.io. If you are interested in the comic itself, the first issue is available to read for free on Image's website. DIE does contain depictions of violence, depression, and more. Viewer Discretion is advised (and for the rest of Kieron's work for Image, frankly.)

Aaron and Vince have just opened a Patreon for Kame House Party. They also stream weekly on Twitch. Aaron's also on Thinking Too Hard About Anime with Noah.

If you really want to read about wasps, Ben's paper is available on Biorxiv.

Greg is on Twitter @gjbennett33 and really should stream more on Twitch.
