I started today with a brief note on philosophy/psychology 0:03:07, due to an in-depth friend conversation I had about this Agnes Callard article https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2023/03/13/agnes-callard-profile-marriage-philosophy (CW for divorce, abortion, motherhood regret, relationships, etc) I'm curious what thoughts listeners might have to add.
Podcast notes for referenced links, more information, and those otherwise wanting to follow along: This week's Tarot Studies 0:05:36 includes our new card of the week, #3 of the Major Arcana, The Empress! While I don't have so much history on this card per-se, I have some interesting insights that, oddly enough, tie into some more psychology, if just a bit. Plus some interesting and feminine connection to last week's High Priestess card! Next week is #4, the Emperor! The Manga segment 0:19:59 begins with our new Manga of the Week: Daily Report About my Witch Senpai, by Maka Mochida! We take these two sweet little slice-of-life volumes as a cooling off period after going hard last two week with Boys Over Flowers and the Wallflower. Followed by a good but of Manga News 0:22:52, which is a bit I'm still working on perfecting! Should I just report the ones I'm familiar with, or is continuing to look for more new and interesting things a good way to expand all our manga/anime knowledge?? ( I feel like I just answered my own question) For Comic Books 0:30:03, we begin with what was NEW this week, arriving in shops March 8th! There's plentiful kick-off's to new series', both indie and "big-two." There are two bits of Comic Book News 0:37:30, one very positive, and one less so. Also, a short discussion of What Happened to Donny Cates? Please note I jest in good humor, please don't send me internet hate over a straight white man, lol. Then the past week's Recent Reads and Events 0:42:12 includes more Lazarus Planet after-shocks, including that awful (awfully cheese-ball) Batman v Robin ending, two Stephanie Phillips kick-offs, and a Stephanie Phillips finale (her Harley Quinn run), plus more! For whatever reason, I've been wanting to go back and finish Mark Millar and Stuart Immonen's Empress (2016; 7-issues), so I decided to make it a feature on this episode 0:54:35. Only when I was doing this write-up did I realize that it was perfect timing, alongside this week's tarot study of the Empress card. Ha! anyway. I give a little summary, but my full summary is on the linked podcast notes. Which brings us to the TV/Movies segment 01:00:34, starting as usual with what was New (to me, at least) and Noteworthy over the past week or so, plus some exciting announcements that includes the screen adaptation of The Good Asian, the 2022 Eisner Award Winner for best Limited Series! And for damn good reason. There's a bit of Anime news 1:06:05, then finally... Mandalorian season 3 episode 2, Chapter 18: The Mines of Mandalore. Folks, it's spoiler city here, and probably isn't a good segment for your kids to overhear, cause this bitch got EXCITED. If you thought I got too sweaty last week, it's in a whole new universe on this one, babyyyyyy! But, I mean, if you watched it, you get it, right? Right?! Come back next week for the 81st episode! The Emperor in Tarot, more MANDO, a new Manga of the Week, exciting new comic reads, and always so much more! Keep it sweaty, folks, It's better that way.

So about this late upload.....oops? Episode 90 still coming tomorrow, the 9th!
Starting off the week with Tarot Studies 0:04:14, and this week's Card of the Week, #2: the High Priestess. Interestingly, the history of the High Priestess is quite different than that of the Magician last week, in that there are a number of real world conspiracies tied into the card's origin. Plus the three character connection from the Marvel Tarot (2007--and in need of an update, tbh), as well as the High Priestess' character archetype from the Anime Tarot! As this is the first episode of March, I also have a new Tarot Deck of the Month 0:24:17, which for March is the Pagan Cats Tarot, aka Tarot of Pagan Cats! Delightful, artistic, and so creative! The Manga segment 0:26:50 has our very in-depth Manga of the Week: The Wallflower (aka Perfect Girl Evolution)! Also having run as a delightful and popular 25-episode anime, the Wallflower was one of my first manga I read as a teen, and like last week's Boys Over Flowers, will always hold a special place in my heart. Check out the connecting Podcast Notes to see how much I DIDN'T include in the podcast, but is still all there in my write-up! Endless information; I wasn't lying when I said I love this one! That leads into a decent list of New and Continuing Manga for this new month of March 0:40:50, which again, has a much more in-depth version on the written notes linked above. Once again, the Comic Books segment 0:44:09 starts with what's new and interesting in March, from a variety of publishers, as well as releases I'm just generally looking forward to. After that is the New Comics This Week list--which I feel like I have to casually remind you is only a small portion of all weekly comic releases! Check out your local comic shop or online retailer for a full list of what releases for comics each week. The Recent Comic Reads & Events 0:50:49 segment includes the wrap-up of DC Comics' Lazarus Planet event, which officially ended with Lazarus Planet Omega, but will have further impact down the road, and I'll be keeping up with those aftershocks, as well! Other reads I talk about include, honestly, a handful of things I was underwhelmed by, but I promise that will change with the next podcast episode's comics section, as there is always more to look forward to! The final segment is TV/MOVIES 01:00:45! Starting off with some New and Noteworthy releases and watches, including Outer Banks and Make My Day. We have an amount of very interesting "announcements lite," 01:01:52 such as Steven Yeun's Thunderbolts villain role, the new Pretty-Boy-Hellboy, Something is Killing the Children's going to Netflix, and more, plus some minor rumors. There were two somewhat noteworthy trailers 01:07:04 put out last week, including Peter Pan and Wendy, and the Haunted Mansion, both of which get a mention. Anime News and Updates 01:08:53 is mostly my current watch-list and things that I'm enjoying this season. The main event is the shows! Beginning with a little bit on the surprising (to me) Mayfair Withes Finale 01:09:30 before getting into the excitement of Mandalorian Season 3 Episode 1 01:11:35, titled Chapter 17: the Apostate. We get into easter eggs, references, the trilogy of trilogies (I'm talking about prequels, originals, and sequels), plus Book of Boba, and the Clone Wars and Rebels animated shows, because it's all involved here! We're getting peak Star Wars, and yes I know how that sounds! Reign it in, Anna. I just really love Star Wars. And this is getting sweatyyyyy. Aaaand then I Finally watched Quantumania 01:22:26, and I can't say I disagree with many of the naysayers. It was....not great. MCU Fatigue central, anyone? And BOY, Bill Murray does not sit well with me anymore, jeez. The whole thing was just a little.....it was a lot. Yeah. But not all bad! I had things I liked, to be fair, so that's all discussed. Come back later this week for episode 90! Including the 18th Chapter of the Mandalorian, a new Manga of the week and tarot card lesson, comics news, and more! PLUS: a special look at Mark Millar and Stuart Immonen's EMPRESS (2016)! All that and more! Keep it sweaty, folks.

Disappointment of the week: Bendis' The Ones #1. But there's always more! Pulls for this, the week of November 9th, (0:51:22) include more amazing indie kick-offs, because this is a GREAT Autumn to get into non-superhero comics! Finally, the DC Titans Season 4 Premier really snuck up on me, but we got it covered (0:54:51), including explanations on the comic counterparts of Brother Blood, Mother Mayhem, Trigon, the Church of Blood, Gar and the Red, Raven and her White Form, and so much more! This show has really paid off for long-time viewers. Make sure to listen to the October Yancy Street Special, Satana and Horror Comics Explored!

And just in time for the start of Autumn.
This episode's News begins with a few personal notes, before getting into the good news about Brendan Fraser in the Whale (0:11:21), then a few points of Star Wars (0:14:31), including the new Princess and the Scoundrel book and a sad note about Patty Jenkins' Rogue Squadron. DC News includes the Harley Quinn Show (0:18:40) and a DC Productions Update, plus more Henry Cavil Rumors (0:23:32), a bit on Doctor Who (0:27:54), and of course, the Weird Al trailer. Coverage of this year's D23 Expo (0:33:17) is broken down into sections for the Trailers, General News, then Lucasfilms News (0:41:34) and MCU News! Since the long break, we have comic book Picks covering the weeks of the 31st, the 7th, and the 14th (0:51:06), and comic book pulls for this week, that of the 21st, follow (1:05:58).

That's followed by talk of the Umbrella Academy season four, and news on not one but two unrelated King Kong projects! I readdress the Batgirl movie situation (0:28:19) as we know it, along with some other DC film delays, and a little info on a meeting regarding the future of their Flashpoint movie. House of the Dragon episode 2 (0:36:24) is briefly discussed, and the News wraps up with some relevant and exciting highlights to look forward to in the month of September (0:39:43), including events, upcoming announcements, and new writers for the Avengers AND Fantastic Four series! Plus, be sure to check out the link below on November comics! Preorders are due in to your local comic shop by September 18th.
Comic Book Picks (0:45:38) for the week of the 24th had a ton of great indie material to cover, plus another issue of Judgement Day, and wonderful Caitlin Yarsky interiors of Olympus: Rebirth! This week's Comic Book Pulls (0:53:28) coming out this last week of August are much lighter on the indie end, but have some very exciting DC ladies' Annuals, and the premier of the new Thunderbolts team! I go over She-Hulk ep. 2, titled Superhuman Law (0:58:09) in full, focusing more this week on comic references (who was Pug?) and Easter eggs, not to mention theories on where Jen is going to take the big case from here! Make sure to check out the She-Hulk Companion Special, as well, which features over two-and-a-half hours of absolutely everything you ever wondered about Marvel's Jennifer Walters, aka She-Hulk! Finally, I briefly go over Harley Quinn Ep. 7 (1:13:08), titled Another Sharkley Adventure. It was a particularly ridiculous episode, dare I say filler? But left me excited to see more, as usual. Next week will bring episode 78, covering the news, the comics, al the usual goodies, but also pre-D23 Expo coverage, and the convention will be happening that weekend!

When life gives you lemons, make a podcast, just later than usual.
For this week's News, we talk Belle (which is on HBO Max), Paper Girls (on Amazon), and the Sandman (on Netflix), all of which a re new premiers in the past week or so! I found a cop; thread on Namor's MCU costume design on Twitter so we go over that goodness, then some brief DCEU project updates (which may change again soon for all we know), Marvel's Fantastic Four plans, the latest She-Hulk featurette, and the exciting new Andor trailer! The past week's comic book Picks (34:13) start with my VERY mixed feelings for Strange #4, but then VERY positive for the #2's of Public Doman, the Variants, and Sins of the Black Flamingo, plus Christopher Priest's Vampirella: Year One #1. Subsequently, this week's comic book Pulls (47:05) feature a LOT of new things, which is super exciting, and a few ongoing classics. Again, these are just a cross section of weekly Wednesday releases, so check out your local comic shop to see what else comes out that I don't discuss! Finally, we end with the Harley Quinn season 3 Premier (59:11), covering the first three episodes: Harlivy, There's No Ivy in Team, and the 83rd Annual Villy Awards! It's good to have this one back, and we'll be continuing to cover it as the show goes on each week! Harvey Guillen's Nightwing has already gone down as absolutely legendary, I loved it! I'll be back the week of Monday the 8th to cover the new week of comic picks and pulls, episode 4 of the Harley Quinn show, and all this crazy Warner/Discovery....stuff, which is still unfolding. Have a nice week, stay hydrated, and enjoy comics!

We'll cover it all in due time, but check the time stamps if you want to skip to anything in particular!
This week's non-Convention News (0:08:55) starts with the tragic passing of comics' Alan Grant, and has a few fun smaller points, but I think the bulk of the interest will be found with Marvel's new title trademarks (0:23:51) and what it all might mean! Also, there is no "The Mutants." The week's comic book Picks (0:28:58) for the 20th of July had Grim #3 and Seven Sons #2 as the picks of the week by far, with Artemis: Wanted #1 as a close third! And this brilliant era of indie comics continues with this week's Pulls (0:34:08), comics for this week, the 27th of July. My extensive San Diego Comic Con 2022 rundown begins at 0:44:55, starting with comic book updates, because thy still do actually cover comics themselves at these big events, go figure! My most anticipated announcements are Tradd Moore's Doctor Strange and Johnathon Hickman's triumphant return to the Marvel cosmos! The various trailers from the event begin at 59:20 and start off with the DCEU, specifically Sandman (we're adding it in here at least), Black Adam, and Shazam: Fury of the Gods. The Marvel MCU starts at 1:05:22 with the I am Groot teaser trailer, before really knocking it out of the park with Wakanda Forever at 1:07:26. That one is followed by She-Hulk, and then we get into Star Trek, Animation, and all the rest! Still talking SDCC22, the new MCU Updates start with 1:59:03, including the rest of phase 4, the plan for phase 5, and the current agenda for phase 6, plus all the news and updates for projects near and far! The convention rundown ends 2:09:45 with Games, Toys, and the Rest of the News! Announced at the con, actually, I also have an Eisner's Recap! 2:13:09 the Eisner awards are the most prestigious awards in the comic book creation industry, and the winners are well worth crediting and celebrating. Congrats to all winner and nominees! We wrap up this long week with highlights of the October Big-Two Solicits, 2:19:00 (link to full will go here). I'll be back next week for the first episode of August, 74! As She-Hulk gets closer along with all those other newly announced goodies, the news and updates are only going to get more exciting. Stay hydrated in this summer heat wave, and stay sweaty about comics!
