Mimicking the four-color process of old comic books, this LOOKS spectacular. And the content backs it up. The last page is a bit hard to read (at that font size, perhaps two columns would've been more reader-friendly) but otherwise this is solid.

Window to the Third EarthDude hell yeah. This goes so hard. Love the drama of the setup on the first page and the counterbalance of Ugzor the Hater just being a chill asshole, minding his own business. Perfect balance between high stakes and committing to having a bit of fun with it.
The gull cartel I think are really key to this working - grounding the whole adventure in the bad actions of a more grounded idea (tomb robbers unearth something they shouldn't) and provides tangible group of antagonists for the first half of the adventure. It's really sticky, gives something for the party to get to grips with before things escalate to the astral realm and the star crystal prison and the mega spliff.
Visually great too - I can smell the paper.

Rays of Beleth's BolideThanks for the comment dude. Really appreciate it. Like my submission last year, I started with a “story” that I thought fit with Appndx N works and then kind of melted it down and remade it as open-ended OSR module.
I was inspired by a few Fritz Leiber stories for this one. And I asked myself “what if Philip K Dick wrote that Fafhrd and Gray Mouser story?”
Great colours, very gameable with good supporting tables and some fun maps to explore. Really enjoyed this one and it's on the "run" pile.

THE LEMURIAN LARDERI love the route you took with the title, very creative! And the writing is so on par with the theme

Thrice-Bound in the Sigil VaultGreat psychedelic colors. I'm loving the sorta crunchy composite style artwork that's almost like magazine clippings glued to a page. Ugzor may be a hater but I definitely am not! Speaking of, I enjoy the NPC names. Duncan the Dim and Waldo One Eye are fun names to say outloud!
Semi unrelated, any chance for some compression on this file? At 26MB it's a little bit much with the cruddy laptop using at the moment. I don't think it would hurt the textures but I could be wrong. Not letting that effect my rating, just a thing I noticed on this ancient (only kinda ) machine lol.

Blood In the MoonlightGreat adventure and trippy visuals! While it looks cool, would you consider a b&w version for people with some visual limitations? Thanks!

The Multiverse MelodyI really enjoy the colorful lysergic/psychedelic vibes but I had a really tough time reading the text between the small font size and the textured background.
The dungeon seems fun, though I can foresee some players getting pissed if they keep getting teleported away from the boss fight, then having to make their way back alone.

Dance with Danger [Shadowdark]I love the trippy color palette, very topical, although the text is sometime hard to read.

Scepter of the Thorn-Headed RegentI love your design and palette for this. Great collage art.
Submitted
The Quest for Koschel's DeathGreat visual design and neat layout, but when viewed at the correct scale for A5 the text is quite hard to read.

A Broken Piece of HeavenEye popping and amusing - feels like a Ralph Bakshi cartoon. Laugh riot, like the riot squad brought laughing gas. Great maps. Hey, by coincidence I almost used that same ancient temple snapshot. Keep up the good work.
