More Episodes

The Fellowship is pleased to present our discussion about the news that came out of this year's San Diego Comic Con. It's the premier event of the year in the geek world, and this year was just as busy as ever, with comics, TV, movies and anything else you can think of. And as always, our picks of the week.

 

What we're up to this week:

Deadlands game - general consensus is that the setting is cool, but the system is excessively complicated (sorry, Deadlands creators)

Comic series One-Hit Wonder (Image) - cool crime comic from 2015

Also Marvelman Family's Finest (Marvel) - a different take on supers

Last Girl Standing (2015 movie) - good premise, weak execution, but overall pretty good little horror flick (sparking a small tangent)

 

Check out our sponsor page! Head to the website and click on the banners for Things From Another World and Make Mine Indie! (Click through the TFAW banner on our site and we get a cut. And check out tons of great indie comics in the MMIndie catalog. And thank you!)

 

Lots of news bites ripped from the headlines of San Diego Comic Con!

 

And our episode where Thomas chose Dr Doom as worthy of his own title was episode 15, if you'd like to check it out
