Silver Age Designer's Journal #2: Time Keeps On Slippin'
When we last left our heroes (which, for our purposes, will be me), we were discussing the Silver Age sourcebook for Mutants & Masterminds, coming to a game store near you in less time than Conan O'Brien was host of The Tonight Show. In this installment, we take a behind-the-scenes look at the book's second chapter, entitled "Chapter Two."

Silver Age Designer's Journal #1: "Secret Origins"
I'm Christopher McGlothlin. You may remember me from such Mutants & Masterminds publications as Golden Age, Time of Vengeance, and Hunks & Heartbreakers (the M&M guide to romance comics). Way back in the more innocent era of yesteryear that was the summer of 2008, Steve Kenson asked me if I'd be interested in writing a Silver Age book for M&M. While my head didn't quite spin all the way around like Steve Martin in The Jerk, my reply was still a loud "Boy howdy!" of the sort I usually save for responding to "Would you like some pie?"
Read all of Christopher McGlothlin's design journal about the origins of the Silver Age sourcebook for M&M at our Super-Vision site.
Wild Cards on Tor.com
Fans of Wild Cards take note! Daniel Abraham, one of the authors of the newest series of Wild Cards novels, is a guest blogger on Tor.com. He talks about Wild Cards and the challenges and opportunities of collaborative stroytelling.
Check out what he has to say at Tor.com.
And be on the lookout for previews of Green Ronin's own Wild Cards release, Aces & Jokers, coming soon!
