RIFTS? Never heard of it...


(Just kidding. Sound off here with a post if RIFTS is your jam, you filthy casuals...)

For those who don't know, RIFTS was the game that was such a hit in the 90's that it kept Palladium on life support for the next twenty-five D&D-dominated years, and was even optioned for a movie (and then discarded into development hell as a cashed-in bargaining chip in their strategy to get a better price for the rights to the Transformers franchise. But still, a Hollywood movie! That's never worked out horribly for the RPG in the past except for every single other time it's happened...)

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

He does indeed! Ramón's illustrations for In Nomine are some of my favorites.

Palladium's ~~angels~~ spirits of light are elemenal in nature, and its demons are infinitely varied, so this illustration works well in the Megaverse too...

Are you familar with his webcomic, ButternutSquash?

It's like Oglaf, right? Some say he took down all his racy stuff when he became a professor.

I'd say it's more slice-of-life, like early Goats, but set in Toronto with more attractively drawn people.
