Description provided by The BoardGame Sherpa on YouTube:

#CharlesPaulWilson #illustrator #boardgames #GenCon2023 Charles Paul Wilson is an amazing artist. He has worked on the Wraith (aka Nos4A2 with Joe Hill), X-Files, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Tales from the Darkside, Goosebumps, Superman, Captain America, The Shadow, and many others - including quite a few commissions he did for me over the years. Most recently he has worked on the Stuff of Legend book and new boardgame of the same name from Th3rd World Studios - which came out on July 26th, 2023 and will be featured at GenCon 2023 He is also a friend, and agreed to sit down with me via Zoom to interview him about his origin story, his career and this amazing book series and now boardgame called The Stuff of Legend. Also, we heard what cool stuff you could expect at their booth at #151 at Gen Con 2023. The BoardGame Sherpa channel is on a mission to help new users conquer their fear of learning new boardgames and find a whole new world of games that go beyond the standard Monopoly, Life, Risk and PayDay games.
