Fantasy, in general

It's the Fifth of November and here at Fantasy, in general, we would like to wish you all a Happy Guy Fawkes Day! With that, we bring you our favorite anarchist, the victim and villain, the vivacious and vengeance-seeking V (for Vendetta)! Join us as we discuss the 2006 movie as well as the famous graphic novel from which the film was inspired. What are their similarities and differences? Was the movie a success? And who exactly was Guy Fawkes and what did he do (or fail to do)? We talk all of this and more!

Our Character Deep Dive Series comes to a close with this episode, but we wanted to wrap it up with a character we all appreciate and respect. Listen as we discuss the loyal, ambitious, talented, overgrown bat- Severus Snape. We discuss his childhood, friends, character traits, and whether or not he was a good teacher. To conclude our episode, we debate whether Severus was an inherently "good" person. Who do you agree with?
