The Hijinkscrew welcome a very special guest this week as superfan Meriko joins the show to help us talk about the very good and extremely overdue cinematic debut* of Wonder Woman! Join us as we break down what we thought of the film and what we might hope to see from the series going forward. 

Oh and SPOILERS. We don't go through the entire plot but we sure don't hold back talking about specifics either. SPOILER ALERT! We forgot to say it at the start of the episode but like always, here there be SPOILERS.

*Yes we know that she technically first showed up in Batman Vs Superman but that steaming pile of shame shouldn't even be counted as a movie.

Slight change in routine this week. Instead of an adventure episode, we have our KublaCon 2017 Round Up! The Hijinkscrew survived the con and have returned to share their tales of glory from the battlefield of the Sequoia room at the Burlingame Hyatt Regency.

A massive thank you to everyone that came out and said hi to us, and a huge shout out to all the volunteers and DMs that offered up their time to make sure that the games could happen. You're the real heroes!

We're kicking off a short series of mini-episodes this week as we take turns talking about our favorite D&D settings. Up first is the voice of Alton Meliamne, the ever present and charismatic Jordan! Tune in to hear him gush about the arcane-punk lands, magical trains and soulless robots as he walks us through just what it is about Eberron that he enjoys so much. 

What's your favorite D&D setting? Why not drop us a line and let us know either in the comments below, or by email at plusonetohijinks.com@gmail.com.

It's the start of a new chapter for the Hijinkscrew as they prepare to make their assault on the Temple of the Howling Hatred. What dangers await them in its dark depths? Well you'll have to wait on that because this episode is all about logistics and planning! The most exciting part of any adventure!

Also on this weeks episode: Alton writes his way out; Hunter goes shopping; Fulgrim is the best Lord; and Ion dreams. 

*Quick programming note - no housekeeping or "Previously on" this week because DM Tom is getting ready for Kublacon! Hooray!

Ding! What's that sound? Is it the sound of the party hitting level 7? Well yes, technically it is. But it's also the sound of them hitting level 8 because that last adventure was so friggin' long and this damn campaign has to end sometime!

The gang is all here on this week's episode to talk about their shiny new toys and abilities that they earned for all their hard work and murder. There are new spells and hit points to increase, ability scores to improve, and some first class back pedaling from Jordan, who admits he was wrong about multi-classing, but somehow it's still Aaron's fault.

With yet another enemy stronghold now a smoking crater in the ground, the Hijinkscrew has a moment to catch their breath and assess their next move.

You know, the thing that we set up back in episode one.

Can the party hope to overcome tragedy and pull together in order to defeat their fiercest and most fiery foe yet, the Burning Titan? Will they be able to go on without their beloved "ranger". Or will grief consume them and allow evil to win the day. Listen in to find out!

Quick programming note: No housekeeping this week and there are a few strange audio pops. No idea what caused them and try as hard as we could, some of them were not able to be removed. Sorry about that!

The party continues their desperate climb to freedom this week, but come face to face with the true power of the Circle of the Scarlet Moon. This is the part where I'd usually make another fire related pun but I can't think up anymore. You could say I'm out of fuel for the fire I guess? But you probably shouldn't.  

Also on this weeks episode; Hunter picks the wrong moment to fail; Alton finds himself in a thorny situation; Fulgrim gets conflicting instructions; and Ian finishes his foe in the most awesome way. Seriously it's super rad.

Things are going just great for the party this week. I mean, at least they're out of their prison cells now. Still trapped inside a derelict firetrap of a building, surrounded by murderous pyromaniac cult members. Other than that though, things are going pretty good. Can they complete their escape from the Cult of the Eternal Flame? Or will their efforts go up in smoke? Tune in to find out!

Also on this week's episode: Hunter reunites with some old buddies; Ian can't catch a break; Fulgrim discovers hidden powers; and Alton hits a high note.

*SPOILER ALERT!*

It's a departure from our regular D&D yammering this week because we're talking all things Logan. You may have heard of it. It's the harrowing tale of a man with knives for hands who discovers he's a father and must take a roadtrip with his old school principal. Pretty standard stuff. 

But seriously, we're going to spoil everything about Logan on this episode. So if you haven't seen it yet, feel free to toss this one on the back burner until you can check it out. We also devote a few minutes to bash on the older, much worse Xmen movies and hear about why Centurion is the greatest comic book character from Stephen.

- Stephen met Jack Black
- The Mighty Ducks Vs Predator
- Jordan knows OJ Simpson
- Suckers
- Sigmund Freud, Tiger Trainer
