The third volume of Bard Games’ Atlantis Trilogy is The Bestiary (1986). Save the best for last — monster books are always the most fun. This one in particular because, as you can see on the cover, the entirety of the interior illustrations are by Bill Sienkiewicz (Moon Knight, Thor, Elektra, countless other comics). This book is a treasure. I could literally have photographed every illustration in the book, they’re all great. Every time I flip through, I find new drawings to love. How did I not photograph his wingless manticore?! That’s how you know an artist is doing fantastic work, when I forget to grind my traditional axes. His inks have an almost ridiculous amount of energy and movement to them.
The monster selection is weird and dynamic (and maybe feels more so thanks to Sienkiewicz). I particularly like the variety of devils and demons, but there are lots of other critters to love, too. Sienkiewicz does particularly well with dragons, I think. Honestly, just go buy a copy, you’ll thank me for it.

Fuckign. Sunless Sea. They tell you. They TELL you your first captain will probably die, right? So of course you don’t take em seriously. You’re just here to fuck around and find out, right?
...I’ve got over 60 hours now, I think. I’ve made some good main quest progress, discovered most of the ports, and even had a child. My captain has become a force to be reckoned with. I haven’t died. I haven’t even had to eat my crew. And my fuckign. my captain.
My captain is doing all this under the name Naruto Cockwrangler.

Hello all!
Here is the full version of the Elemental cut-away art I created for Catalyst Game Labs. This is the art that was blown up for the giant cut-out and some of the banners featured in the GenCon 2022 gaming area.
Enjoy!
