The Fellowship is pleased to present our discussion on the separation of Dan DiDio as Co-Publisher at DC Comics. The announcement in February was not loud, and we haven't really learned much since then, either. But he held the job for quite some time, and did a reasonable job of it. We talk about his background, some of his notable achievements, some of the opinions he's voiced over the years, a bit of editorializing, 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:
Weird week, D&D videos on YouTube, coping with the pandemic, a random Yes Minister reference (find it either on Amazon or Britbox), more praise for Locke & Key, Tiger King (Les' Netflix documentary), Spenser Confidential, Zombeavers, watching new games on Twitch (Doom Eternal, Animal Crossing), picked up a Mister Miracle collection, no meetup in April (we'll see about May)
