Join our host Marie-Claire Gould (@mariecgould) with special guests: Drew Dodson (@zombiegirl1385) the manager of Might Moose Comics in Bellevue, Washington (@mightymooseWA) Today we will be talking about Comics, a little about the history of the Canon Marvel title. How to get into them and why you should if you haven’t already. Also excuse Marie-Claire as she gushes over Vader 2015. EDITORIAL NOTE: Not all of Marvel is Canon only from 2015 on – the earlier comics are Legends. For some reason that is not clear, both Drew and MC know that, but it comes out weird in the Podcast. *SHRUG* Twitter: @WTForceshow Subscribe Today! iTunes: https://bit.ly/2msJlHc Youtube: https://bit.ly/2NX1ut4 Stitcher: https://bit.ly/2LjDH8m Radio Public: https://bit.ly/2morJMy Tune In: http://tun.in/pi6qc Google Play: https://bit.ly/2NX1ut4 OR listen: http://whattheforce.ca/ Our Intro and Exit Music is Mars from The Planets by Gustav Holst 1914-1916 (Public Domain).

Join our host Marie-Claire Gould (@mariecgould) and our guests David Morgan-Mar (@dmmaus) and Andrew Shellshear (@shellshear) and in our segment ‘What the Fandom’ as we discuss the unparalleled Webcomic Darths and Droids which has been running for the last 11 years. This amazing comic is the parent venn diagram between Star Wars, Roleplaying games and headcanon. Come in, get your pre-rolled dice ready! Come listen to Marie-Claire Fangirl! What is Darths & Droids? Darths & Droids is an “RPG screencap comic”. RPG – The characters in our comic are roleplaying game (RPG) players. The Game-Master (GM) guides the players as they take the roles of characters on a quest in a science-fiction universe. Screencap – Our visuals come from screencaps (still frames) of Star Wars movies. Comic – This means it’s funny. We hope.
