This week's update!
🕑 Added 2019-02-25 22:33:10 +0000 UTC Hello everybody! Let's get into it.
First up, you definitely could not have missed the update about new thumbnails. I kind of went overboard a little bit and we redesigned pretty much everything except for Back Issues. Elseworlds Exchange, Off the Rack, The Good The Bad and The Ugly, and letters page all got facelifts and retconned changes to their thumbnails. There is a level of cohesion we have not had for some time, and I'm really happy with how the channel looks overall. If you have no idea what we're talking about, that's probably because your cookies are not reset. I know that I'm having a hell of a time actually seeing what the channel looks like to everybody else, myself.
I also have an update about what we're going to do with one of our classic shows that has crossed over a hundred episodes. But I will save that for the end.
I spent about two and a half hours yesterday trying to get hour-long box tables under control. If you've ever seen a behind-the-scenes video made over the last few months, you have definitely seen how our long box tables have bowed under the sheer weight. I went to IKEA on Friday evening and picked up a whole bunch of extra legs that would support the middle of the tables, only to find out that the tables that have been bent beyond repair, so I need to go back to IKEA and pick up new table tops. This is incredibly frustrating but once it's done the studio can finally be clean again. One of the things you guys don't know or haven't seen is how utterly disastrous the studio has become in the process of trying to alphabetize and catalog all of our floppies in addition to the usual stuff we're working on. But once I get that working, things are going to look really nice.
This week, you have already seen Bat Issues about Robin 3 Cry of the Huntress. Really fun episode, hopefully you will like it. I am still behind on catching up on that buffer for Back Issues, but when it's finished this week's episode will be X-Men Asgardian Wars. It's really fun episode with Tiffany and Ethan and I think you're really going to enjoy it. I do apologize however because I don't know how early it will be. However, we did film two more episodes so I'm excited about having those ready to go soon.
Off the Rack should be happening Monday night, but I have to admit I didn't really read a lot of books this week. It was just a really really light week. I'm going to talk to Tiffany about it and see where we are.
Elseworlds Exchange will resume as usual, of course. And I'm going to try and get a Letters Page ready to go. We have two episodes to edit.
And now comes that other discussion I wanted to have. I really want to completely restructure Letters Page as a show. The studio change over improved everything on the channel immensely, save one important crucial detail. I miss the homey atmosphere. And I'd like to bring that back somehow. So hopefully starting soon, Letters Page is getting a big shakeup in format. You're still getting unboxings. But you may also be getting even more. And when I say you, I mean you in the Patreon. I'd like to have questions submitted every week from you guys to have answered on the show. Unboxings from the audience. Comment shout outs. The works. And make it feel more like we're just hanging out and having fun. Thoughts?
That's all for now. Thank you so much for being here and keeping us up and afloat. You're the best!
Talk soon!

I really love the new branding for the thumbnails, the black and white with one main color looks phenomenal and will totally set you guys apart from any of the other videos in my feed! Overhauling the look of the entire channel must have been a colossal endeavor, but it looks great and the love and passion you put into it is much appreciated. Keep up the great work!

The book was set in a cold month. That's all. Haha it'll be a totally new color scheme next time.

The sets look amazing. The thumbnails are great. Great things are happening for ComicPop. I really enjoyed the show on Maximum Carnage. Keep up the great work. And by the way who else can ask you better questions that you can debate than your biggest fans. Keep on being awesome

Love the new redesign. It’s very slick. What made you choose the blue theme.
