We will be publishing our very first ASK ABSURD QUESTIONS article here on the Absurd Feed soon addressing questions about A Better Paradise, American Caper, the Absurdaverse and more. If you have questions for us to consider, please do keep them coming via https://absurdventures.com/contact and stay tuned.
