Check the game out here! He also explains how Dragon Dice is actually a sonnet in this interview! Ben's book on RPG adventure design, Encounter Theory, is on DriveThruRPG.

This chapter concerns TSR West, an effort by TSR to open an LA office devoted to producing comic books, an effort that failed rather impressively. It is the product of a dozen interviews with professionals from comics, gaming, and Hollywood, and as far as I can reckon, it is a tale entirely untold until now.
