Discussing the Sonic Comic (but not that one)

2025/02/23

This week the Patrons voted on us reading a Sonic Comic but not the Archie Comics one, the IDW one. It's written by Ian Flynn. The story is "Sonic fights a thing and runs into one of his friends and where is Doctor Eggman?" I just summaraized the comic. Promotional Trailer for They're the Same Picture.

2025/02/12

We've made it to the Council of Elrond. This is perhaps the most lore dense chapter in all of Lord of the Rings. There's a lot to unpack. Better get comfortable, but don't worry. Unlike the actual Council of Elrond, we will break for lunch.

On the night of Chimata's wake one of his three sisters is found murdered. Can Kosuke solve this mystery in time to save the others? No, he can't. That's actually spoiled pretty early on in the book.

Then he kills a bunch of people and blames her. Then he sends in a new Head Peacekeeper to menace our plucky heroes. How will she handle this new threat? How will she lead a revolution?

It's that time of year again! The boys hand out awards and review our year which felt like at least 2 or 3 years. Did you now we read The Deep Sky THIS year? How about The Honjin Murders? That was also 2024. That feels like at least 2023, maybe 2022. I am blown away by that, it's insane.
