This week's update!
Added 2018-12-03 19:22:44 +0000 UTC Hey everybody! Sorry for the late update about the behind-the-scenes insight into the comicpop apparatus! I was up until about 2:30 in the morning editing this week's back issues, which should be available to all Silver Age Becker's by the time this post goes live. Obviously, it is the Infinity Crusade... And if by some chance the guys over at the MCU decide this should be the title for Avengers 4, we are about to get a big influx of confused people! I'm not holding my breath, though.
So we hit the ground running last week when it came to filming. We shot to Back Issues episodes in a row, one Marvel and one DC. Then I looked at my schedule and realized that we need an Aquaman episode (which would have been filmed last week except that I interviewed the author and wanted that information ready for filming), a Spider-Man video (Into the Spider Verse!!), and our epic Christmas episode. So those last three episodes should be filmed this week? It's going to be rough.
We also filmed an epic letters page because thanks to weather and sickness, we couldn't film any new ones for a while. But we made a significant dent in the amount of incredibly generous packages we've received over the last couple of months. I'm hopeful I can get that done by Friday. I'm also thinking that Letters Page will probably come out over the weekends from now on. So Saturdays, most likely.
We also filmed our newest episode of The Good The Bad and The Ugly, this time featuring Amalgam characters! With characters like Dark Claw and Amazon... Woof. I am actually in the middle of editing that episode right now. In total we probably filmed about 6 hours worth of stuff last week, and this week is looking even more full.
Tonight you can catch Tiffany and myself live on the channel sometime between 5:30 and 6 Eastern standard Time with a brand new Off the Rack! This also will feature our first significant paid advertisement on a live show. It doesn't affect the content, at all, but I'm just excited we're doing it.
And Elseworlds Exchange will return on Wednesday. I'm thrilled with the response we got on the last episode and I'm hopeful that this can continue throughout the month. After hour Halloween month, I said to Joel maybe we should make all of December redemption and callback episodes that we promised over the last 3 years. so they are all going to be references to previous episodes but expanding on them in bigger and better ways. Because as much as I love how the show began, I am more excited about the direction it's going.
As for the near future, besides all of this of course, I have a comic line episode planned, a big thank you video, our upcoming 75000 subscriber live special, and a video about Sandman turning 30. Lots to do, only one editor.
Thank you all so much for your continued support, it helps us out in such a big way and allows me to completely overextend myself in the ways I just described! But all kidding aside, I'm incredibly lucky and fortunate to have all of you keeping the lights on and allowing us to continue to entertain you guys. It means absolutely everything to me.
Love ya,
Sal
