February 17th – 23rd

First! Local Creator KC Green has an excellent new comic, Me And You. It’s available here! Also by clicking on the title in the sentence prior to the previous sentence. It’s about birds, and old-fashioned exaggerated cartoon violence.

March 11th – 17th

Something important to check out next week! Comics N’ More’s “Move On Up” party! On March 24th at 2:00PM to 4:30PM at Galaxy [60 Main St, Easthampton, Massachusetts 01027]! You can go to a great party to support a great local comic shop! There will be a silent auction too which is great!

September 26th – October 2nd

The Valley Nerd Watch! Welcome to the Valley Nerd Watch, upending all your expectations for narrative for another week! We’re excited to present to you yet another cool Kickstarter, for a locally-developed educational deck-building card game! It sounds really neat, and you can play it at Modern Myths this week if you want to get […]

September 19th – September 25th

The Valley Nerd Watch! We unfortunately missed the 14th Anniversary Party for Modern Myths recently but we hope everyone had a very nice time! This week the big deal seems to be yet another release of Magic the Gathering material that reminds us that we should probably have ever played that in middle school instead […]

September 12th – September 18th

The Valley Nerd Watch! Our friends got married yesterday! It was wonderful and we think they are both the best, good job friends! They’re both very smart and very cool and this is the start of a beautiful marriage. Hooray for love and large parties with a lot of strange traditional elements! We had an […]

August 22nd – August 28th

The Valley Nerd Watch! We had a lovely time this past Wednesday at the Brass Cat in Easthampton playing board games, getting our butts soundly kicked at Tiny Epic Galaxies, a very cute and easy to play worker-placement game with some nice twists on the formula and a lot of player interaction that kept it […]

July 25th – July 31st

The Valley Nerd Watch! This issue of the Nerd Watch was written on a computer with a Windows 10 install that still thinks that the default system language should be Spanish, which we have to be honest is annoying in ways we had not considered. We spent a while trying to fix it but yeesh […]

July 11th – July 17th

The Valley Nerd Watch! So we had another wonderful time at the TopatoCo Drink and Draw last Wednesday! The person doing the bar-tending turned out to be an artist too! Though working more in metal than in paper and pencil. Heather Beck makes absolutely awesome work, and also teaches classes! You can find her stuff […]

July 4th – July 10th

The Valley Nerd Watch! Happy July 4th, true believers! Let this be the place where we say that no matter how cool it seems, putting any one or goodness forbid multiple of your extremely vulnerable appendages near a thing that explodes is a really bad idea! We can’t emphasize enough that the human body has […]

May 23rd – May 29th

The Valley Nerd Watch! It’s not really a local game, but heck: DOOM (2016 Version EX Hyper Edition) is a fun time according to us. If you are into using a fanciful arsenal to shoot demons in their faces, you will not go wrong. Surprisingly, one of our favorite elements of the game was the […]
