March 23, 2023 More Powerful Than Ever!
This week we talk about the major changes that happened to Manage Comics, how it was nearly the week that broke Brian, and how we're now more powerful than ever before.
Plus we talk about the Metadata Working Group meeting which will be happening on Thursday, April 13, at 4:30pm ET/1:30pm PT. Reach out to Katie at Books With Pictures if you want to be involved.
Brian also went on a bit of a rant about the Negative YouTube army who loves to crap all over comics, and how we shouldn't give them any oxygen because they're a terrible influence who thrives off of their ridiculous theory that "Comics Shouldn't be Political", which is ignorant of comics as a whole.
