Star Wars: Comics In Canon – Ep 39: Anakin Freeing Slaves, Mace’s Saber, Padmé’s Mission & Jar Jar Binks (Age Of Republic)

This episode of Star Wars: Comics In Canon features the final 4 stories in the Age Of Republic one-shot comic series, all set around the Clone Wars; Anakin Skywalker in “The Sacrifice”, Padmé Amidala in “Bridge”, “The Weapon” with Mace Windu and “501 Plus One” with Rex and Jar Jar Binks, Mike also gives some additional info about each of the characters and recommendations for season 1 of the Clone Wars.

The Age Of Republic comics Anakin Skywalker & Padmé Amidala were both written by Jody Houser, pencilled by Wilton Santos & Cory Smith, inked by Walden Wong (Marc Deering also inked Padmé) and Java Tartaglia was the colourist for both too.

Please note this episode was originally released in January of 2021 on the feed of Comics In Motion.

In AoR Special, “The Weapon” was written by Ethan Sacks, pencilled by Paolo Villanelli and the colourist was Erick Arciniega while “501 Plus One” was written by Marc Guggenheim, pencilled by Caspar Wijngaard and the colourist was Cris Peter.

#56 Pt 2 – People Look For Meaning In Chaos: Recording An Audiobook, Conspiracy Theories & Commuting With Frank Burton

This week continues Mike’s chat with author & fellow podcaster, Frank Burton regarding his new book: One Hundred.

This week is part 2 of their chat and their discussion surrounding One Hundred continues, where they start with discussing different people’s perspectives, commuting, not requiring fruitful conversations with strangers all the time, bad customer service, the process of recording & releasing an audiobook, what defines consciousness, if life has meaning or if it’s purely chaos, Frank’s religious views, the importance of community and much more – they even get into conspiracy theories towards the end!

Part 1 was released last week so if you haven’t checked that out, be sure to listen first! Part 1 primarily focuses on Frank’s writing-process, what inspired him to write a 100-chapter short-story book, the central themes of the book, many of the thought experiments the book delves into, the idea of solitude not being a bad thing, why the world of One Hundred is such an interesting one, what Frank & Mike define “milking” a series is (using examples of Star Wars & Doctor Who), Frank’s storytelling history & many other fruitful topics!

You can listen to One Hundred for free (name your price to download) on bandcamp.
