“It’s been such an amazing experience to see all the enthusiasm for The Last Session, and I’m delighted to continue the adventure in this new volume,” writer Jasmine Walls said. “We’ve got a new format and a whole new crew that I hope people will love as much as the first. To know that so many people read volume 1 and really connected with our cast of characters means a lot to me. At their core, tabletop roleplay games are collaborative storytelling–just like comics!–and I hope our books continue to inspire people to create something new together.” “The Last Session is such a fun and heartfelt comic that captures the experience of playing tabletop games in both the real world and in-game with all its comedy and obstacles. I’m excited about the first book’s re-release in a smaller, handier format and couldn’t be more thrilled about it being accompanied by a 2nd Volume, featuring a brand-new story and cast! Working with Jasmine again was such a great joy and I’m hoping that people will connect with the new characters as much as they did with the Vol. 1 crew!” said artist Dozerdraws.
