Chris Perkins announced his retirement after 28 years from WotC today (effective today). He was one of my favorite Dungeon Magazine writers, I enjoyed his work during 3e, worked a bunch of times with him during 4e (and he made my writing better each time), and again enjoyed his work during 5e. Have a happy and well deserved retirement!
A few weeks ago, I posted about my favorite Dragon Magazine cover, so I thought that I would now post my favorite Dungeon Magazine cover. This one from Issue #13 just screams D&D to me, given the weird mishmash of influences as a Tyrannosaurus Rex crashing through the walls of a medieval building. Plus, you don't see bright colors like this used in many other D&D context. Art by Fred Fields.
Dungeon Magazines! Eight great issues from 1993 and 1994.
I got a notification today that MyComicShop was selling Dungeon Magazine #1 for $15. I won't say how much I paid for my copy just in case my wife finds this post, but let's just say it was more. Looking at their other recent offerings, I think they may need to do some more research before offering Dungeon Magazines for sale...
Hey #DungeonMagazine fans, I got a notification today from a comic shop that I've ordered from in the past. They have issues 2, 6, 7, and 8 available for really cheap! I already own copies and I'm not looking to flip any of them, so I thought it would be of interest to other collectors and fans:
Dungeon (Magazine) 2 FN 6.0 $12.00
Dungeon (Magazine) 6 FN- 5.5 $11.00
Dungeon (Magazine) 7 FN+ 6.5 $13.00
Dungeon (Magazine) 8 FN+ 6.5 $13.00
Earlier today, @phd20 asked for some #TTRPG shelfies, and while I posted one, the favorite part of my collection is all of my Dungeon Magazines (issues 1-150). Here’s a quick video I took! #DND #ADND #DungeonMagazine

This came up in conversation tonight. Back in 4e, I pitched and wrote the first draft of a Domain of Dread entitled "Karog's Maw" to Dragon/Dungeon Magazine (I preferred the original title, "The Teeth"), but it was ultimately rejected. I haven't thought much of it since 2011, but I figured people may find it interesting. I threw a copy and the accompanying maps I drew in a public Drive folder:

A few years ago, WotC gave away a 4e #DND adventure I wrote for #DungeonMagazine in Dragon+. The file is still available for download. I hope anyone who's interested enjoys it (and also, it disabuses the notion that 4e was all tactical combat all the time.)

I was reminded today of my first #penandpaper #ttrpg #campaign. We were six friends and #JohnMastodon playing #AdvancedDungeonsandDragons in the early 90s. Four of us DMed and we rotated our sessions, often meeting for 24h marathons at each other’s houses with little to no sleep. It was epic! We had #Ravenloft, #Dragonlance, basic #DnD and I was #DM for #forgottenrealms. It became the longest running campaign. We played lots of #TSR modules and #DungeonMagazine scenarios, #RuinsofUndermountain
