- EPISODE 67: SWORDQUEST - EARTHWORLD and CONVERSATION BYTES WITH CHAD BOWERS & CHRIS SIMS William Pepper 1:10:26
We’re back!
After an unplanned week off at the exotic locale of my local hospital, ATARI BYTES is back. And we promise you, this episode is worth the wait!
First, we talk about the 1982 Atari legend SWORDQUEST: EARTHWORLD, the first in a famously unfinished series of games and pack-in comics at the center of a contest that also went unfinished, courtesy of the video game crash.
Then, after the game stuff, you can hear my conversation with Chad Bowers and Chris Sims. (Thanks again, guys!) They are well-known comics writers on a lot of big things – Deadpool, Guardians of the Galaxy, X-Men, to name but a few – and are now writing an all-new SWORDQUEST – inspired comic series for Dynamite Entertainment. Preview issue Zero just dropped on May 3 at the sweet, low, retro price of twenty-five cents!
