The Fellowship is pleased to present our discussion of the impact of the DC Rebirth event after five years. We tend to have mixed feelings around here about the big comics events, and it was interesting comparing this one to others. Plus our usual tangents galore and our comics picks of the week.
Announcements:
We found a way to do our monthly meetups - on Discord! Come hang out with us in the voice channel on the 3rd Saturday of the month; details on Facebook & Twitter &
the Events tab on our websiteWe're super excited to announce our partnership with
ComicBooks For Kids. Details on the website (and you should be listening to hear more, too 🙂)
What we're up to this week:
Discord meetup last Saturday, rewatching Buffy, Bubba Ho-Tep, a little more Substack talk, the pitfalls of Twitter (including Gail Simone), games in a pandemic (specifically Munchkin), Tear The Roof Off (documentary on Parliament Funkadelic), rewatched Phantom of the Paradise, Linda Ronstadt: The Sound of My Voice documentary
Also, sorry about all of the "cute" stuff - it started before the recording, and you know how we are with our running gags😉
We added our picks to the website as their own page! It's an easy reference for you to find some cool stuff to read (especially in social distancing mode). So go check it out, and hit the site as you need or want 🙂
And we're doing something new on Discord this month - come join us over there and join the fun 🙂
