Arkham: Tales from the Flipside: Spring 2022

by Christopher Jon Luke Dowgin

This is Professor Wilmarth and your friendly neighborhood Cthulhu welcoming you to another journey within the world of the macabre and the strange. In this season’s issue we have several tales of baseball, lost love, and lost fingers. Henry our favorite immortal returns to NYC and imparts to us on how he first met Mark Twain out at the game. Then we have Polh’s Celebrated No Hit Inning where a braggart of a hitter is set up against an amazing team in another realm. Then we have Ernest Hemingway telling us a tale of Nick Adams’ lost love in The End of Something . Followed by Wodehouse’s in The Pitcher and the Plutarch love is found at home plate. Next in the sequel to The End of Something Nick Adams has second thoughts in Hemingway’s The Three Day Blow . Followed off with Roald Dahl’s Man from the South, a tale of a hot bet and lost fingers. Some stories touch on historical facts and others you will hope are just pure fiction. Let’s see if you can figure out all the connections between the tales. Who knows, you might even find more than I reveal at the end of our installment from Tales from the Flipside. Cthulhu is in a sour mood, he has some kernels stuck between his teeth. If you don’t step lightly around him, you might find yourself stuck between his teeth.
