Last year at SDCC I was talking to an old friend about his idea of creating a TCG that you can play with only 1 pack but also works for constructed. BDM‘s idea was really cool but wasn’t sure if he was going to turn it into a reality.
I should have had know after so many cool projects he came through. Brian raised over 2 million dollars on a Kickstarter for his new game – Cataclysm Arcade and now he’s joining us in the TCG hall at SDCC.
Brian is an old school comic writer. He loves art as much as I do. So when he suggested that some of the artists for the game come to the TCG hall and sign I had to say yes!
