by Leave a Comment

Have you ever played a Dungeons & Dragons game or a D&D like game? Have you had envy and/or jealousy of a friend’s friend/girlfriend/boyfriend/partner? Are you not a fan of change; even good changes? Are you queer? Do you like comics/graphic novels? Do you like stories about things like that in graphic novel format?

Table Titans Club by Scott Kurtz

I like a good graphic novel. I like ones that capture relatable subjects and can be humorous. And of course, I like serious ones too, but I was in the mood for something that was funny. And Table Titans Club (I am assuming it is the first in a series, since how it ended) looked funny.
