Knights of the Dinner Table x2
Wednesday 4 March 2020

Hoody hoo! In March 2020 we presented
two giant bundles featuring the long-running gaming comic series
Knights of the Dinner Table by
Jolly R. Blackburn from
Kenzer and Company. We revived the May 2018
Knights of the Dinner Bundle — a great introduction to the series — and added an all-new companion offer,
KoDT More Trouble.
Jolly Blackburn created
Knights of the Dinner Table in 1990 as a filler comic strip for issue #2 of the small-press gaming magazine
Shadis, which he published out of a spare bedroom. Jolly didn’t give
KoDT much thought, until it quickly became a favorite among readers. The most frequent reaction was, “Those guys remind me of my own group!” Thirty years later, Jolly still draws and writes for the monthly
Knights of the Dinner Table magazine. Since he joined Kenzer and Company and formed the
KoDT Development Team (Barbara Blackburn, Brian Jelke, and David S. Kenzer),
KoDT strips have appeared in seven different magazines and in many limited-series comic books. Throughout this unmatched run, the theme of the strip has held true: Outsiders and loners of all kinds can find friendship and acceptance at the gaming table.
1. KNIGHTS OF THE DINNER BUNDLE
[from May 2018]

Revived from May 2018, this bargain-priced
Knights of the Dinner Bundle presented well over a
thousand pages of comics that provide an ideal introduction to the 30-year run of
Knights of the Dinner Table. There were
nine titles in this revival’s
Starter Collection (retail value
$86) as DRM-free .PDF ebooks, including the first
five KoDT Bundle of Trouble omnibus collections that together compile the first 15 issues of
Knights of the Dinner Table magazine; three
Tales from the Vault collections of scarce early strips from four different magazines; and
The CattlePunk Chronicles Volume One: Outlaw Trail.

Those who paid more than this revived offer’s threshold (average) price
also got this revival’s entire
Bonus Collection with
eight more comics worth an additional
$85, including five more
KoDT Bundles of Trouble that collect
KoDT issues #16-30; the second
CattlePunk Chronicles collection,
Four Herdsmen of the Apocalypse; and three standalone books:
Men That Hack,
The Java Joint, and
KoDT Special #1: Last Man Standing.

Even hoooody hooooo-er! This all-new
KoDT More Trouble companion offer added no less than
ten new
Bundle of Trouble compilations, all five
Black Hands comics, two
Tales From the Vault collections, and
HackMasters of Everknight, a ten-issue series about the fantasy characters played by the Knights in B. A. Felton’s
HackMaster campaign.
This offer’s
Starter Collection (retail value
$86) included five
Bundle of Trouble compilations (collecting
KoDT issues #36-49), Volumes 4 and 5 of
Tales From the Vault, and five issues featuring the Black Hand Gaming Society, the outcast players who hang out in the back room of Weird Pete’s Game Pit.

This offer’s
Bonus Collection added
sixteen more titles worth an additional
$83, including five more
Bundle of Trouble compilations (collecting
