Editor's Note #92
The overly-ambitious attempt at a Tango-sode! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:09:03 So, Tango began a relisten a couple years ago, and wrote in some great letters along the way, and we attempt to get through all of them this Editor's Note. But first, an upcoming schedule! Tuesday, September 1st: Episode #327 - Creative Process: Recently Made Heroes from the Interim Tuesday, September 8th: Episode #328 - Writers' Room: A Silver Age story where a hero goes back in time and teams up with their younger self Tuesday, September 15th: Episode #329 - Writers' Room: The Sobek event Tuesday, September 22nd: Editor's Note #93 (the promised Science-sode) Tuesday, September 29th: Episode #330 - Writers' Room: Prime Wardens power-switching story Exciting stuff to look forward to! OK, back to the Tango-sode, in which you get to hear by the end of it how everything falls apart. But then! It gives us an angle for some future content and a way to make everything work out for the best! All's well that ends well, or so some say! Join us next week for an episode about Stealth Suit Bunker! Until then, keep on saving the Multiverse!

Gen Con Live 2026!
We had a fantastic time at Gen Con this year! And so many of you were a big part of it! This year's Letters Page Live was a delightful and frankly much-needed return to normal, but with QUITE the turn out! We more than filled the notable space that Gen Con provided for us for our podcasting needs, and you all more than filled the time with fantastic questions! Right off the bat, we were challenged to keep it truthful all episode, which is a mighty ask indeed! However, we did our best, and I think we succeeded, and even gave away more than we'd intended! So, that all sounds like a pretty good outcome to me. Oh, and Trevor is working on the video for this event, so you can look forward to seeing that, when we have it! Next week will be this month's Editor's Note, which means that if you're on our Patreon, you can join us this coming Thursday evening for our live recording! Come join us! We hope to see you then!

"We Were at Gen Con so No Episode"-Sode
It was really great getting to see so many of you at Gen Con this year. You're the best, and we're incredibly honored to have you all as listeners, as fans, and as an important part of the extended Sentinels family. We had a very truthy Gen Con 2026 Live show, and we look forward to you being able to hear it in episode form next week! Until then, Adam and I are going to pass the heck out for a few days. Thanks again, everyone. You truly saved the Multiverse.

Episode #325 - Writers' Room: Justice Comics #675 "Wipeout vs Deadline"
Wipeout AND Deadline?! How did this happen? When did this happen?! WHAT HAPPENED?!?! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:47:16 We had a great time in the Writers' Room with this one, building a brand-new issue of Justice Comics #675 completely on the air! What starts as a straight-up showdown between Wipeout and Deadline rapidly spirals into territory neither of us anticipated... except for the mall. To be entirely honest with you, we 100% expected the mall. After putting the full story together, we dive into your letters! We're at Gen Con this week! Come see Greater Than Games's smallest ever Gen Con booth presence in Booth #2856, and definitely come to The Letters Page Podcast Live recording Saturday morning! (And if you want to show up early, the Play Greater Podcast will be in the same place, right before TLP!) Got questions about this issue, upcoming topics, or obscure Sentinel Comics lore? Send them in using the letter submission form! We'll be back after Gen Con!

Editor's Note #91
The last live show before the next live show, which is next week! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:05:58 This Editor's Note was recorded live last Thursday, July 16th, 2026, and the audience was great! Always a delight to hear from everyone and get to answer your questions in real time. Gen Con is next week, and you can hear it in our voices! We're looking forward to it, though it will undoubtedly be a hectic time. Here's the upcoming schedule! Tuesday, August 4th: No Episode! Gen Con Consumes All! Tuesday, August 11th: Gen Con Live 2026 recording released! Tuesday, August 18st: Editor's Note #92 (the promised Tango-sode) Tuesday, August 25th: Episode #326 - Writers' Room: Stealth Suit Bunker Only one "normal" episode next month! Strange times, these! We answer so many random questions that slipped through the cracks in the last few years, ranging from extradimensional beings to games to death to creators to costumes to events to immortality to gods to variants to art to goofs to comics and MORE! A good time was had, and hopefully more questions were answered than raised. Join us next Tuesday for Episode #325 - Writers' Room: Wipeout vs Deadline! I wonder what that episode will be about... And we hope to see as many of you as possible at Gen Con next week!

Episode #324 - Writers' Room: Fanatic Vol. 2 #173 "An Æternal Prince as a Scion"
From Prince to Scion? What a terrible road! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:08:37 We tell you a story, create a character, tell more story, and make up and/or reveal more details! And then, following the standard pattern, we read and answer your letters! This Thursday we'll be recording the upcoming Editor's Note episode live on Thursday evening at 6 PM, Central time! If you're on The Letters Page Patreon, you can join us for that livestream, and if you're a Contributor, you can be part of chat and have your questions read on air! We hope to see you there!

Episode #323 - Writers' Room: Void Guard #3 "The Idealist in a Noir Story"
A story from the Void Guard book?! About time. Show Notes: Run Time: 2:08:28 It's odd to see a book change genre in the very third issue. How did this happen? What happened in issues #1 and #2? What happens after this story? While I cannot promise complete satisfaction on all of those fronts, rest assured that this episode at least touches on all of that! And more! And introduces a villainous force that's been hiding in the shadows for some time... Lots of good letters in this episode, especially in response to the Quetzalcoatl / 6th Sun story. If you want to get your letters in to an upcoming episode of this very show, use our submission form to send one in! And also check out The Letters Page Podcast Patreon! It's a great way to connect with a VERY cool and active community, and also support us while we keep telling these stories! Thank you, Patreon supporters! We look forward to telling you an Æternal tale next week!

Episode #322 - Writers' Room: Virtuoso of the Void Vol. 2 #30 "Rambler calls in a debt"
What's with all the princesses?! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:14:06 We have not figured out how to keep these episodes under two hours. That (and the fact that June had 5 Tuesdays) has jumped us up a tier in monthly hosting costs. We pay for our long-winded crimes! But, that just means we have to keep putting out Top Content for you! And we pledge to do our best! Join us for a silly romp through a couple stories with an UNREASONABLY HIGH number name drops. Is it a good story? Well, it might be more than one! Do you get satisfying answers to all your questions? I mean, "all" is such a weighted word. Surely not, right? Maybe some? Listen and find out! We had a lot of fun with this one, and we're looking forward to next week's episode about Idealist in a Noir story! Send in your letters here!

Editor's Note #90
We're live again! Against all odds! Can you believe it?! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:27:35 That's right, this is a long one. And that's after Trevor edited out all our extraneous nonsense! (Don't worry; he left plenty of nonsense in.) But, yeah, we were recording for over 3 hours. We're recording on Thursday evenings now, so hopefully you can join us for live shows more often! Speaking of schedules, here's next month's schedule: Tuesday, July 7th: Episode #323 - Writers' Room: The Idealist in a Noir Parody Tuesday, July 14th: Episode #324 - Writers' Room: A Prince of Æternus as a Scion Tuesday, July 21st: Editor's Note #91 Tuesday, July 28th: Episode #325 - Writers' Room: Wipeout vs Deadline Then, we answer SO many questions. We're thrilled to have gotten so many letters, and they all meant so much to us... but we couldn't possibly read them all on the air! We did a lot, and we had a great time doing so. And taking so many questions from the chat! Join us next week for a Rambler episode! We'll see you there!

Episode #321 - Tome of the Bizarre Vol. 4 #56-58
The title of this episode is misleading... Show Notes: Run Time: 2: That's right, another 2+ hour episode, but we actually cover a LOT of material in that time! I promise. We start off with some goofs, then some discussion of the method of upcoming episodes, and then we finally get into it! Re: the teaser line at the very top of this episode description, it's true that the title is leaving something out... This episode also includes Arcane Tales Vol. 2 #596-597! Adam, slacker that he is, only did covers for THREE of the five issues covered in today's episode. Psh. Spoilers ahead! Here's the next cover: And then the third cover! In case you couldn't tell, all three go together! Here's that majestic work: Astounding. Join us next week for Editor's Note #90! And if you're on The Letters Page Patreon, you can join us this Thursday evening on the GTG YouTube page at 6 PM Central for the live recording! We'll send a link out via Patreon that evening. Also! Got letters for us? Send them in here! Keep on saving the Multiverse!

Episode #320 - Writer's Room: Cosmic Tales Vol. 2 #244
Who is going to space?! Run Time: 2:18:24 We crafted twice, told once for this one! We planned out the majority of this story before recording... and yet, we still crafted quite a bit of lore on the air, in a variety of ways that surprised even us! We tell the full arc of this story, and more! We just keep making things up? Clearly, we missed doing this. Next week's episode is all about the Rise of the 6th Sun! Questions about that? Use our handy form!

Episode #319 - Writers' Room: Freedom Five #618
Time for a speedy story! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:15:49 I'll tell you, I'm not sure how it is that last week's episode ended up under 90 minutes and this one took over two hours, but here we are! We go into the publication history of Friction a bit, dig into a few of her other stories, and then start crafting this one, a brand new tale that we create entirely on the air! Oh, and because I know Walking Target will want it, here's the spelling of a name: Maisie Murphy We're into June now! Send us your questions about this episode, future episodes, and anything Sentinel Comics that you want to know, using this link! Next week's episode will be a space opera?! How will we pull that off?! Join us and find out!

Episode #318 - Writers' Room: A Day in the Life: Benchmark
Are you ready for the New Standard? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:25:36 We're back at it, and oh so happy to be here! After last week's long-awaited return to voting, we're excited to announce an upcoming schedule! For the first time in over a year! Tuesday, June 2nd: Episode #319 - Writers' Room: A non-Vengeance Friction story Tuesday, June 9th: Episode #320 - Writers' Room: Cosmic Tales: An intense space opera story Tuesday, June 16th: Episode #321 - Writers' Room: The Rise of the Sixth Sun Tuesday, June 23rd: Editor's Note #90 Tuesday, June 30th: Episode #322 - Writers' Room: Rambler calling in a debt pulls a character out of a different fight A thrilling June to look forward to! Then, we get right to it, and the Benchmark stories unfold quickly and relatively smoothly. We have some ideas of what happens (or at least where it goes) in advance, but we discover and create a lot on the air, as well! We very happy to be back in the swing of things. Join us next week for Episode #319, which is a Friction story that's not part of the Vengeance event! Get your questions in here! And don't forget to check out our Patreon!

Episode #317 - Writers' Room: Justice Comics #384
A triumphant return! But is it ever that easy? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:56:53 So much to cover! We're back, we're excited, and we have so many things to share with you! We're working on more game content, more Sentinels stories, and a whole Multiverse to get spun back up on! Adam and I have not been idle, and we can't wait to give you more Multiverse to save and to savor as soon as we can. Greater Than Games is back, as well! Learn more at www.greaterthan.games! Please do consider joining us on The Letters Page Patreon, as we need your support now more than ever. The topic of this episode came not from Patreon voting, as we usually do, but from the moment we find ourselves in. However, next week, our episode is "A Day in the Life: Benchmark", as we were supposed have done over a year ago. What comes after that? You decide! We've got topics up for voting on a poll! We need your opinions! We'll announce what upcoming schedule you've determined next episode. Whew! Then, after all that, we get back to telling stories! We had some knowledge and ideas about this Legacy & The Wraith story in advance, but we craft a lot of it live on air. It's both a return to form and also a chance for us to knock the rust off, as we're a little out of practice for some reason. Thanks for holding on, sticking with us, and tuning in once again!

Episode #316 - Writers' Room: Mystery Comics Vol. 2 #307
A simple episode... about machines? Sort of? Show Notes: Run Time: 2:03:55 We dig into the past of the Order of the Simple Machine, both in comics and in our creative process. We reveal things we've never before said publicly! And then we make up new stuff, too! Join us next week for a live show! We love it when people ask questions live! Genuinely!

Episode #315 - Writers' Room: Justice Comics #407-408
Let's Bust some Bunks! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:08:17 Oh no, another long one! Well, at least you get a number of villains out of it! And a couple issues! And a bunch of letters answered! So, pretty usual fare. This story certainly didn't land at the time as the writer hoped it would, and would be remembered largely for the big robot suit fights. But hopefully you enjoyed the story! That's certainly one of our main goals. Join us next week for an episode about your favorite Wraith fighting your favorite Order of the Simple Machines! (We're pretty sure you don't have any other favorite Orders of the Simple Machines. Pretty sure.)

Episode #314 - Writers' Room: Justice Comics #534-535
But just who are the April Fools, anyway? Show Notes: Run Time: 1:21:28 We (and just who is we are in unclear) do some goofs, tell some stories, and read your letters! It's just a totally normal episode! Join us next week for more normal episode times, in which we record an episode about the Bunker Busters!
- TLMar 25, 2025 · 1 hr 48 min
Episode #313 - Writer's Room: Mystery Comics Vol. 2 #106
We don't want to bug you, so please bear with us... Show Notes: 1:48:49 Adam and I kick it off with talking about how we haven't done a good job with Bugbear... and the ultimate result by the end of the episode is this cover, so, take that as you will. Regardless, we definitely do a bunch of Bugbear work, and answer a bunch of Bugbear letters! Hopefully everyone has a better feel for the character now! We're about to head into April! Hold on tight!

Editor's Note #89
Another live show! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:06:07 Over two hours?! Yes, but just barely! Look, we had a lot to go through, and that makes us all smartthinkers, don't you think? Here's the upcoming schedule: Tuesday, April 1st: Episode #314 - Writers' Room: A digital foe in a digital realm Tuesday, April 8th: Episode #315 - Writers' Room: Bunker Busters Tuesday, April 15th: Episode #316 - Writers' Room: Wraith vs the Order of the Simple Machines Tuesday, April 22nd: Editor's Note #90 SCIENCE Tuesday, April 29th: Episode #317 - Writers' Room: A Day in the Life: Benchmark We finally get through a backlog of questions from a very smart thinking listener, and we also take a pile of live questions from the chat! Join us next week for a Bugbear story!
