What's in the works...

Well here we go - We decided to take a few adventures to movie, video and animation format... Yes we are! Since we are amature video folks/animators, you will see a very ecclectic free form video of a game that will be posted both as a pod cast and uploaded to youtube as a blended creative experience. Since several voice talents also do art, you will see, never before illustrations, art, movie clips combined for a creative commons art piece from the STRANGE CORPSE POSSE TEAM. We are keeping on to a tight time line too. So we know know it will be gritty, wonderful and full of surprises too. Thanks for staying connected. Stay tuned for more.

Show 17 - 3rd Story Arc

We are back! We are! In order to finish the tale and sort real life from fiction, we started the show on the 3rd and final story arc to conclude the tale  of Strange Corpse Posse properly. That's right, now you will see what happens to our players and their characters as we wrap up the story in the final few shows in te 3rd Story arc. You'll be given a bit more to chew on morally, ethically and Super Heroically. With other projects in the pipeline and balancing real life and our passions for audio, art and games, this brings us closer to a cozy finally. Hang with us and you might find some surprises along the way. Right now, the heroes go from hunters to the hunted, then instantly back to hunters with an overwhelming display of fire power.

Story Arc 3 - show 16

Our "Last" broadcasted show! You heard right. Show or issue 16, is the last shared game. Our game will continue behind the scenes. It has been a real pleasure. Having been the driving force behind this program for over a year, wow, almost 2 years of shows! It is time to look at other options for delivering the talents and content. I started this project almost three years ago. I did not expect much, but the thought at the time was, what if I could be the Jack Kirby and Stan Lee of pod cast superheroes? Can I deliver content that is dynamic, intriguing and compelling like all the comic greats did on paper before? So I started this journey with hopes and dreams and a ton of empty time to fill. Then I found a group of people that were brave enough to let me record them. It felt like a very huge risk at the time, but these talented people embraced me and my wacky ideas to make this an amazing show. I never knew how talented the game community was until I did this. I am very...

Story Arc 3 - Show 15

 Every show brings something different. This show, Number 15, gives us a few things to ponder. First and foremost, even the Game Master is human. We make mistakes and forget rules. The second is the shocking end to a character that brought tensions and random chaotic relationships with non-player characters. For those folks overly attached to our show characters, you may want to avoid this show. For those of you that like the drama and learning more about the game, you'll really want to give a listen. Our SUPER HEROES , again learn that there is far more happening in the world and that they are being watched.

Story Arc 2 - show 13

Sorry for the poor audio quality. It was a challenging show. Now with the preamble. With psychic senses rattling, our hero Raven, quickly warns her fellow heroes about the impending danger.

Though one person guides the story, the players do contribute to the tale in a smooth way to ensure an equal opportunity for all to see a s...

Story Arc 2 - Show 12

Well the team dynamics have changed for our heroes as they run into even more "Earth" folk beings that were abducted. The Uber service becomes a popular choice for travel by one of our superheroes. As the team dynamic starts to change the group is best currently described by Liao as "So after all, we have a sword girl who turns into a dragon, a wheelchair girl who turns into a goddess , a bug and electric type Pokémon, a angry Cyborg we are gonna kill soon but no spoilers, a nuts ancient Chinese ghost, a invisible mutant who’s superpower is hat picking, super heroic." We have a special thanks to many talented folks who offered to participate in our game this show. Without all of you, a little of the magic disappears from what we do.

Story Arc 2 - Game 10

Our heroes decided that going with a more secret style heist action would be the best way to infiltrate the Golden Peacock and the club below.

Orion is no where to be found and he gives Adam Turner a desperate call for help while the rescue is underway. Another turn of events unfolds as they heroes find themselves with a bargin to keep, a pocket full of explosives and a friend in need of medical help.

Story Arc 2 - Game 8

If it wasn't for "Low Tech", we would have "No Tech!" As the GM I use a mic that was included with my 486 Compaq PC back from 1993. Yes I am dating my self. The thing works amazingly well and withstood the test of time. Mounted on a home made, kit bashed Popsicle stick stand, Poweraid lid and 2 old business cards. Now you know all our secrets! As for the game, our “Game Group” certainly has a challenging time with the current issue at hand. The newer members of the team are hunting down the details for the heist, Including more information on the artifact in question that you can download here . While the older members wonder if they should even bother saving Doc Moth. Then they have the issue with Orion. Their lives become more complex while they search for a way through this life. While plotting how to survive, run a business and save lives. Being a hero is not easy. Even Vanisher contemplates a life changing career move with the purple dragons...

Story Arc 2 Game 7

Our “Game Group” certainly has a sense of humor. We added a question and answer to the start of the show. With on-going technical issues, the real issue has been reduced to one issue. Me, the GM! You can listen to the hero team give the GM (Game Master) Richard Grzela a hard time only to have the pressure turned back up on them in return. Turn in! https://drive.google.com/open?id=1BsPhddrbHRFY6wTPDzqhCPuQcjBE-mmn  ~ Enjoy  In this episode, our heroes learn that the only real truth is what people do, not what they say. The most honorable of people in the world mean well, but if they act and behave in a manner that is unbecoming, then you have to question that person’s honor too. This show reveals that the layers of life can cause a vague space that they now have to navigate. With one clear good choice, one clear bad choice and the situation of no choice at all leaves our players scrambling for a solution to one of the hardest situations they have ever faced in their liv...

Story Arc 2

Wow! When I started producing this project I never thought that I would still have the same team in place, let alone see the popularity of this group grow. Thank you to the Players and Voice Actors, Vanisher, Tempest, Raven, Liao, Cyx, Orion for dedicating the time and effort for making this happen. With every project there is a journey and this one started with challenges but we still had fun as I drop into a monologue every time the audio dropped off. Anything to get a story out, right! But if you're wondering who I am. I'm the writer, producer and artist for Strange Corpse Posse. A question I get often is who or what is Strange Corpse Posse? The short answer is as follows. It is a group that gets little credit in the story as they are a mundane corporation dealing with construction materials and fences. It is what it is. Life is not always so fantastic. It just has to happen. As you look at this image remember this, the players behind the voice really are better looking....

Do you love Super Heroes 5? Wrap up of story arc 1

Well wonders never end. In this 2 hour finale extravaganza you get a boat load of entertainment. I really have to say thank you to our players and voice actors. Misogynist aside, Our heroes are finding challenges on this Duel Convergence world like none other! With two budding entrepreneurs facing the challenges of success, we see that physical power is just a part of the real grit required to make it in this big bad world. So if you love culture and combat arts, then you need to consider signing up for a class at Elizabeth Sword Studio. A fictional game place created by none other than Raven ! For fans of the show, Raven (Our Voice Actor - We don't own Raven, but we are pleased that she is humble enough to hang with our game group.) She was recently selected to voice a character for an animated children short version of a long time classic Beauty and the Beast! along with those accolades, she does art and design for her character and contributes to our group game resources too....

Do You Love Super Heroes? 4

Well if you don't love super heroes this show might certainly change your mind about that. A great cast of characters challenge the norm of the game and find innovative ways to over come the challenges in their life. Maybe even changing the world around them if random acts of....Er...Um... kindness are a thing that doesn't get in the way? https://drive.google.com/open?id=1ZQoeVBUwSGRV9WN2QUt73HxwD1HOuB73 Huge thank you goes out to the voice actors.
