by Carrie Wood & Richard Ankney
Tabletop gaming of all kinds is bigger than ever, and Gemstone Publishing's latest "how to" book is here to provide an in-depth look at this booming hobby. The Overstreet Guide to Collecting Tabletop Games takes a look at tabletop games of all kinds, from pen-and-paper role-playing experiences to collectible card games, from modules to miniatures, and everything in between. This guide includes the history of tabletop adventures and other board games as well as a look at what makes them so collectible, plus interviews with veteran industry pros and seasoned collectors alike. From the publishers of The Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide.
Tribute to Steve Ditko, without whom Marvel Comics (and mainstream comics) would literally NOT be the same. Also: Shane’s take on Batman #50 (“The Wedding) and Bendis’s Man of Steel miniseries, plus Red Rooster, Black Hops and Space Force comic book updates with Mitch Breitweiser, Mark Pellegrini and Timothy Lim!
