Firstly, my dearest nerdlets, Happy St. David's Day/Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Sant Hapus! You can check out some Welsh-language music in a blogpost I wrote on Sunday to celebrate.
Yes, I have now seen Black Panther! It was totally awesome-ful! XD (And most of what I have for you this week is Black Panther-related!)
And this week is one of those weeks where everything I have for you comes under the 'other stuff' category. Blame Loki. #AlwaysBlameLoki

Glad you enjoyed Black Panther! And I actually have a comic book recommendation for you, Cee! I recently had to read Fables: Legend in Exile by: Bill Willingham and I thought it was awesome!! Not sure if you’ve heard of it, but it’s basically classic fairytale characters being thrown into the modern world of NYC and it’s so badass. I think you’d like it!
ReplyDeleteI think I read the first issue of that... *squints before realising that's not how memory works* - I think I did! I think it was in a 'first issues' anthology thingummy, and it was pretty cool :)
DeleteThanks so much for sharing my video <3 So happy to know you got to see the movie and loved it too! I can't wait for the chance to see it again. I'm gonna check out some of those youtube reviews and the interview (just the fact that it is with the jewelry maker intrigues me...)
ReplyDeleteNo problem! :) It's an awesome vid - well done! XD
DeleteI hope you enjoy the reviews/interview! (The jewellery vid is really interesting imho!)
