GHL Year 8!
Of everything we've published on the brand new Geek History Lesson Blog this will feel the most familiar to Super Friends.

Thanks for keeping us ranting about the Anti-Monitor farting out universes for so many years <3

Hey Patrons,
Happy New Year!
We are freshly returned to Jawiin HQ from a couple weeks of rushing around the world. Thank you to everyone who spent the holiday season celebrating with the latest DOCTOR STRANGE HOLIDAY SPECIAL - particularly if you foisted it onto friends and family.

Hey Super Friends,
Last year we got a super positive response to many of the topics we chatted about on JASON & ASHLEY'S EXCELLENT ADVENTURES!
If you aren't at a tier with regular access to the show it's a personal, more off-the-cuff podcast where we discuss things going on in our lives, stories from our past, anything which we would not have room to discuss on GEEK HISTORY...

"This seems like a lot of blogs all of a sudden!"
You're right, Super Friends, but 2 counterpoints:
- 1) "But, Batman!"
- 2) more posts in the first week help raise the SEO & will help new readers find us & hopefully become more Super Friends!
If you watched the teaser The Batman dropped earlier this week check out our blog for all the comic runs we found referenced. This is a super fun breakdown for all the Bruce Wayne/Selina Kyle shippers out there.

Hello Super Friends,
Per the usual Geek History Lesson release schedule you are probably expecting a new episode to hit feeds this evening/tomorrow morning. After traveling internationally and coming back to an Omicron hot spot we are going to be taking a week off.
It's our third week off from GHL since January 2021.
And by "week off" we mean "recording the first batch of 2022 episodes"!

Happy New Year's Eve, super friends! Thank you for your support in 2021.
I wanted to ask you a question. I've been kicking around a new comic project codenamed PROJECT PAUL. It's a futuristic western set in a world ravaged by climate change. The story follows a lone gun mercenary named Paul as he tries to hold on and rebuild a great society.
This probably wouldn't start until June 2022. But would you be interested in reading one page a week here on Patreon?
