The Kids Present Comics Archeology - Appendix N - What Is Appendix N?
Welcome to Comics Archeology! What started out as a segment during our reviews of graphic novels has now turned into a series and to start us off we will be doing a deep dive into Appendix N this month. We will first ask the question 'What is Appendix N?'. Then in following episodes we will shine a light on Appendix N author's influence on comics, comics' influence on Dungeons & Dragons, and finally Dungeons & Dragons' influence on comics. During this exploration we hope to uncover some insights as to why popular fantasy and science fiction literature, comics, and role playing games just go well together and are culturally one. We hope you enjoy this latest exploration! Please drop us a message on the anchor app or send us an mp3 or email to [email protected].
