info_outlineThe Fellowship is pleased to present our discussion of 10 years of Marvel movies. The Infinity War is now upon us, and we're taking a look back at how we got here.

What we're up to this week:
Aliens: Dust to Dust #1 and Jeepers Creepers #1 - new books last week that were awesome
Les' Big Bag o' Nothing® - out of pocket, not much time for fun stuff
Saw a certain new movie - no spoilers, because spoilers SUCK!
Also Rick & Morty comics - quick, easy read, very entertaining
Eric Clapton: A Life in 12 Bars and Wait For Your Laugh - two cool documentaries to check out
