That Movie Killed A Lot Of Things - Week of 4/22/20

The Fellowship is pleased to present our discussion of Wizard Magazine and whether it could be viable today. It was really popular back in the 90s, but could it rise again from the ashes? We have opinions (shocking, right?). We talk about the magazine, the kind of stuff it covered, where and how we get that stuff today, and a bunch of other stuff. Plus our usual tangents galore and our comics picks of the week.

 

Announcements:

Come hang out with us! We usually have monthly meetups on 2nd Saturdays in Garland, TX; details on Facebook & Twitter & the Events tab on our website

We'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:

We're all here!, Tiger King, supporting local comic shops, the lengths some of those shops are going to, Margaret Rutherford documentary (the one Les watched a few weeks ago), a new Red Dwarf special just dropped in the UK, Unspeakable Horrors documentary, Monster Madness, You Can't Do That, Never Surrender, and bad movies like Samurai Cop and Easter Bunny Bloodbath, a You Can't Do That On Television tangent, watching spaghetti westerns like Death Rides A Horse and Sabata

Also please do what you can for not only local comic shops, but also your favorite creators online - many of them have online shops or Patreons or Kickstarter stuff - obviously take care of you and yours first, but if you can afford to buy something, every little bit helps
