The New Civil War Weekly

This podcast covers Cleveland's geek scene each week. If its weird, wonderful and geeky, you will find it here.

It's a light day for the geek calendar, so we have time to check in with Josh Harlan, the co-owner of Imaginary Worlds along with Eric Begin. This weekend is Free Comic Book Day, and that is a very special day for Imaginary Worlds. They will be celebrating their third anniversary. You can find them at 13446 Cedar Rd, Cleveland Heights, Ohio across from Melt and Critical Hit Games.

We also have time for a quick look at Analog Science Fiction and Fact magazine, more commonly just called Analog. It is a venerable flagship of the print science fiction world. We look at its deep history and birth as Astounding in 1930.  This month's issue features a short story by Cleveland's own Marie Vibbert, so I thought I'd talk it up. You can read her story, "The Willing Body, The Reluctant Heart" in the May/June 2018 issue of Analog, on newsstands now.

Hey Group! It's a weekend calendar and a short look at the science fiction magazine,  Locus. If you don't know about Locus and love print science fiction and fantasy, then you should check it out. Also, Lost Boys at CWRU slipped the calendar. I've linked to it below, but there will be free showings at 7 pm, 9 pm, and 11 pm at Strosacker Auditorium, 2125 Adelbert Rd, on Case Western Reserve University campus. Details on free parking are at the link at www.celestialattic.com.

Hey group! The weekend lurks around the corner. Avengers Infinity War starts tonight, and we wrap up our talk with Carl Scheu, President of the Northern Ohio Wargaming Society. Just a reminder, you can subscribe to Celestial Attic as a Flash Briefing on your Amazon Echo. I'm told it should be available through Siri and Google Home as well.

Hey group! There is a limited calendar today, but we continue our look ahead to this weekend's Northern Ohio Wargaming Society Minicon in Berea. This will mostly be tabletop miniatures wargaming. That is, lead miniatures on tables. Carl mentions several game systems, so I've tried to give you a feel for them with the links at celestialattic.com.
