Digimon Deck Profile: Red Hybrids (and General Blog Update)

Hey, folks, what’s up? It’s been a minute, huh? So, yeah, March didn’t really go as planned. I had an episode of the podcast recorded about Jessica Cruz, my favorite Green Lantern, but my laptop died earlier this year and wouldn’t you know it, I’d forgotten to back that episode up! So it goes. More

Character Build: Jessica Drew (Spider-Woman)

If I’m being honest, Jessica Drew, better known as Spider-Woman, is perhaps not the most High Evolutionary-adjacent character I could be choosing for our second hero build of the month. Adam Warlock is more intrinsically linked to Herbert Edgar Wyndham, but he’s also a character I know a lot less about. I’d like to take

Character Build: Thor Odinson

Since the High Evolutionary first debuted in the pages of Thor, it seemed appropriate that I dedicate a character build this month to the God of Thunder. Building a god is no easy task, but I think I’ve come up with a reasonable facsimile of Thor’s powers! There’s one caveat, though: this build assumes the

Den of the King Snake

Alright, here we go–time to really get out of my comfort zone! I designed a little adventure to utilize the villains I homebrewed for Tim. While I do DM a lot, this is the first time I’ve designed an adventure that wasn’t tailored to my plot and party; it’s probably a bit uneven as a

Robin’s Rogues

What’s a hero without memorable villains? Robin doesn’t have a deep rogue’s gallery of his own, mostly borrowing from Batman’s, and the ones that are more Robin-specific aren’t necessarily the easiest to translate to a TTRPG; Ulysses Hadrian Armstrong is basically a particularly bratty kid, Jaeger is barely characterized at all, and so on. However,

A Brief History of Tim Drake

Hey folks! This was supposed to go up a while ago, but, well, between an illness that just wouldn’t go away and my laptop unexpectedly dying, I haven’t been able to do all the stuff I intended to do for the site over the last few weeks. With any luck, I’ll get back on track

Robin’s Gear

Batman, famously, has no super-powers—he relies on an assortment of gadgets in his fight against crime. The same is true of his allies, including Tim Drake, the third Robin. Robin doesn’t necessarily have a huge assortment of gear at his disposal, but he has a few gadgets that I thought he really couldn’t do without.

Character Build: Stephanie Brown

As soon as I decided to build Tim Drake, I knew I also had to build his long-time love interest and frequent crime-fighting partner, Stephanie Brown. Unfortunately, in terms of super-heroics, Stephanie doesn’t have a strong identity until the 2009 Batgirl series (which only lasted two years before the New 52 kicked her out of

Character Build: Tim Drake

One of the things I’d like to do in the TTRPG space is to build comic book characters in my current favorite tabletop game, Pathfinder 2E. Our inaugural character–and the focus of the first episode of the upcoming podcast–is none other than Tim Drake, also known as Tim Wayne, also known as Alvin Draper, also

Welcome to It Came From Off-Panel!

Hello! Welcome to It Came From Off-Panel!, a new blog and podcast focused on the weird world of comic books. I’d like to take a moment to talk about what to expect from this site and its accompanying podcast. It Came From Off-Panel! is, first and foremost, a podcast where I sit down with friends
