    Just note that we are not planning on uploading the rest of the season for free to CZcams right now! But you can get every episode of A Starstruck Odyssey (and every Adventuring Party talkback) by signing up for Dropout at the low price of $6 / month! That's, like, the price of a just okay sandwich.

    I love so many things about this episode, but damn, the dialogue is top notch! There are few pauses for thought, everyone has a very distinct voice that informs their character, the interactions flow really well, it's just so good!
    Also, not to spoil episode 2, but the characters are really (and I mean *REALLY*) fluid and the cold, harsh reality of the world's economy gives the whole season a thick layer of tension we haven't really had in D20, except maybe with Kalina.

    For those of you who are on the fence about this series, I can assure you that episode two is even better. I know it's based off something else but episode two just gives off so many Cowboy Bebop/Firefly vibes. Zac's metamorphosis at the beginning of the next episode is something I would not have ever expected and is so genius because of it. Pretty sure they offer a two week trial so you could wait for the series to wrap up and binge it all in that time frame (not that I would recommend that).

Then, literally as this campaign was announced, I read the last issue of one of the more recent series (the 2009 or something, I think), and there was Brennan's face in it! And then I google, and it turns out his mother is the creator of the Starstruck play and comics! And THEN I find out Dimension 20 is doing a Starstruck-themed campaign. Super weird and cool.
