Interesting Panel, Booth-Lurking Staff Storm San Diego



Psychics predict we'll be at Comic-Con International in San Diego July 20-23, talking up Sam & Max and Bone and basking in the general coolness.




The easiest place to find us will be at Telltale's panel, "Bringing Great Stories to Life," in which Dan Connors, Daves Grossman and Bogan, and the one and only Steve Purcell will reveal all the secrets of turning licenses like Sam & Max and Bone into video games. The panel will take place on Thursday, July 20 at 12:30 in room 9. You can also visit Steve Purcell (and any Telltale employees lurking nearby) at his booth, #1231.



Can't make it to Comic-Con? No worries. We'll have an eye-witness report when we get back!

Dear Max: Advice from the maw of madness


Dear Max,


I can't seem to find my mobile phone. I've looked everywhere I can think of. My friend told me to try calling it but that's just ridiculous. Any tips on who the culprit might be?

-Missing Mobility in Massachussetts


Dear Missy,
What part of the word "mobile" did you not understand? You can't take your eyes off those things for a minute, or they escape. You can chain them up or nail them to the wall, but then that kind of defeats the purpose, doesn't it? Anyway, nobody took your phone; it ran away.

Fortunately, Sam did some research by throwing darts at the internet for a few minutes and has discovered that mobile phones on the loose are like homing pigeons, drawn by forces beyond our comprehension to their natural homeland: Mobile, Alabama. If you really want to find your phone, take a bus to Mobile, but be warned, it has found a new life of unlimited minutes with its wild brothers, they roam in packs, and they hunt unwary travelers like yourself. You may want to get used to writing letters instead.

- Max

This Just In: Dank Not Dead! image
Concerned Dank fans will be relieved to know that the caveman inventor has not gone the way of the dinosaurs, as proven by the recent update to the popular strip. Could an update to the Sam & Max webcomic be waiting in the wings? Only time will tell.

The rollout of comic generator 2.0 (as we dorkily refer to it in-house) has resulted in the addition of many more comedic gems to the Telltale Comic Vault. Not only can you make your very own Sam & Max comic, you can now also browse through other people's comics and vote for the ones you like best. Not to mention, we've made it easy to embed your user-generated comic in a blog or on a webpage. To sweeten the deal, we've added four new panels for July.
