Two days ago, on June 8th, my husband, Ben Potter, passed away in an unfortunate accident.
To many of you, he was Comicstorian, voicing stories from across multiple different mediums. To his loved ones, he was one of the best and most supportive individuals anyone could ask for. As a husband, a son, a brother, a friend, or even just a stranger, Ben was loving and genuine. He was someone who would listen and make time for his loved ones. He would do his best to make everyone laugh and make sure they were okay. He was our rock and he'd reassure his loved ones whenever they needed it.
He was my world and I need time to be with friends and family. I have so many things I need to figure out but firstly, I need to grieve. I ask that you respect my privacy as well as everyone else's. Right now my priority is preserving everything he's built and I don't have any plans beyond that.
His channel was one of his greatest accomplishments, and while we all need our time to mourn him, I know he wouldn't want it to end like this.
Ben spent over 10 years spreading his love and appreciation for his hobbies. It was through his love of exciting stories and well written characters that got him started on YouTube.
The team and I want to keep that going. To honor him by continuing to tell great stories by great people, as well as to keep the memory of our very own superhero alive.
We supported each other on everything we wanted to do and I'm not about to stop now.

Hey Guys! LOTS been going on, but I'll be doing a Assassin's Creed Modern Day Lore for this upcoming week! (I hope, worst case the week after)
Thank you from your continued support!
Alright, we took this week off because of the Holiday.
But a few things, first off here's the videos I'm working on
Vahalla ISU Explanation, plus a explanation of Basim.
Assassin's Creed, the Story So Far (I'm going to explain the core story elements in ALL OF THEM)
Assassin's Creed Odyssey Book VS Game (I know, its been on the list for like 6 months, I'll explain whats going on in a second)
Black Flag Webtoons Continuation
Sonic Vol 4
Plus Nathalie is working on more FFXIV Job Class
Whats been going on with this channel?
A lot, but we love making content over here again. Basically for the last 6 months we've gone through an insane amount of stress. Lots of personal and company stress. Because of that I havent been able to stream and finish my Odyssey video like I planned. I also havent streamed like intended because Nathalie relasped on her disease and instead of streaming when she streams, I've been spending the weekends with her. Im aiming to get all 4 of my AC videos out before Mirage drops and then we can kind of get back to normal, because it LOOKS like everything is finally getting good again. I'll keep you guys up to date, thank you to the small audience we still have here!
Just a quick update. Things got kind of insane around here, plus vacations hit again. We'll be back next week with some Final Fantasy and Assassin's Creed Related videos! (She's working on the Ninja Subjob story and I'm working on my AC Odyssey video still, but we have another comic rolling too, a WW2 Assassin.) Also what do you think of a Assassin's Creed Black Flag Remake? Rumors are making the rounds already.
Nathalie is back on the channel if you missed our Final Fantasy XIV Warrior Video and she is working on the Dark Knight one right now to hopefully get out this week. But if you want more Nathalie now, check out her channel that she is trying to revive with a list of what Summons did in the Final Fantasy Franchise https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yCg-I...
Show some support if you want to help please!
This channel wasnt abandoned again, I just got too overzealous lol. Im working on a couple of projects at the same time like an idiot. I was like, hey this channels for fun, let me move to the fun stuff! So here's whats coming.
Assassin's Creed - The Apples of Eden
Assassin's Creed - The Fall Comic
Assassin's Creed - Odyssey Book VS Game Plot (Im almost done with this!)
Resident Evil Full Timeline (Im debating how in depth I want to go into each game which is causing delays... buts its a big project.)
Sonic Vol 2 and 3
Final Fantasy XIV Stories - Warrior Quest (Nathalie is Returning for this one!!!)
Gonna try for the Apples of Eden video by Saturday Sunday and Resident Evil early next week. Wish me luck!
We've released the sequel and finale to the Vietnam Era of Assassin's Creed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDyvS...
You may have noticed a name change on the channel again (Im keeping the Eligible Monster part, just debatingt he secondary portion.) I think we're just going to eventually call it Eligible Monster Gaming Lore, I know its a mouthfull, but its the channel name and what we do for the sake of SEO. I'm looking to move over the Destiny comics from Comicstorian, we're going to cover the Purge in Assassin's Creed and we're also going to do Volume One of Sonic the Hedgehog over the next few weeks. My goal is to release 1 Assassin's Creed video weekly, then pepper in other things I find interesting, like Resident Evil, Sonic, Street Fighter, Metal Gear Solid, those kinds of games with massive lore I've always enjoyed.
Alright I completely underestimated the scope of playing AC Odyssey while reading the book with it. So Im going to keep working on that, but instead we're gonna get back to some of the other ideas. The stuff we're going to cover soon is the
AC Bloodstone Books, 1 and 2.
AC The Purge Explained
&
AC The Desmond Files.
Im hoping somewhere within the next 4 weeks I have the AC Odyssey Book VS Game Story video done lol
Also I was curious, people have been asking me for a long time to cover the Sonic IDW comic books, which is basically a alternate lore to Sonic. I was curious what you guys think if I threw it up on here for more Gaming Extra Lore.
For those wondering about the name change, this was to show that I was focusing on Gaming Lore again and I wanted AC Lore in the title for SEO. But I always intended to eventually cover my other passions within the video game landscape. Like Final Fantasy and Resident Evil.
Thank you for the warm welcome back! My schedule was to release the Odyssey story, Book and Game differences and explain the whole thing this weekend. But I dont think I'll hit that goal. I'm going to try and assemble the Isu Valhalla Lore but I'm having an issue with my eyes that Im waiting on glasses to correct. So if I cant get it done we'll be back next week with Odyssey. My goal is to bring something new weekly here, evena t that pace I planned out about 6 months of AC videos lol. So if this continues to regrow I'll have to work in a second day I guess!
Also Nathalie is returning because she wants to talk about Final Fantasy games! But you can always find her at www.twitch.tv/yorcia
Anyway, up next is Odyssey Story (Book/Game) and Valhalla Isu Story (Dawn of Ragnarok Included)
(and for those wondering, yes Im aware of the discourse of the ARPG's not being considered AC games even though they titled them that. We'll be going into classic titles very soon which includes DS games and such. I just wanted to start with Odyssey because Im reading the books in order and the only request I got on the first video was Norse Mythology Isu lore!)
I like to talk about video game lore.
Assassin's Creed
FFXIV
Destiny
Resident Evil
Sonic
are my current focuses
