On Tuesday, September 2nd, the goblins are loose! The Adventures of Nigel, Twigette (and Squeef), a wild and unruly spinoff of The Adventures of Bud & Herb, is hitting the mycelium network with three episodes of pure, unfiltered cryptid hunting adventure, releasing every other week.
This time, the stars aren’t the beloved Bud & Herb. Oh, no. We’re talking about:
Together, they leave the ruins of their goblin clutch to follow the trail of the cryptid Marrowgrim, a monstrous flying skeleton-cat who stole the last egg laid by their dearly departed Mother-God, a mycelial-infected Roc.

Seems like maybe Mr. Nigel "Most Number One" Festergut is in a spot of trouble, but hopefully he and Dougie can work things out. I find a shared slice of pie and a karaoke duet always works for me!
