Disney sure is ramping up their plans for Marvel and Star Wars content, huh? Hopefully this community can serve as a meeting ground for people wanting to talk about all the new shinies.

Some basic guidelines:
* General courtesy, please. If you don’t like it, don’t read it. (make back button, not war, my pals ❤️)
* Comments make the fandom go round. See something you like, let em know!
* Any and all spoilers go beneath a cut, and are marked as such. This includes casting information and trailer reactions. Mild spoilers for episodes that have been out for over a week is ok.
* If posting icons, post up to four teaser icons, the rest after the cut/following the link. Spoilers count in icon-form as well, so no icons from episodes less than a week old outside of a cut, please.
* No graphics bigger than 400x400 outside of cuts.
* Any and all content is welcome for new or old Disney+ shows related to Marvel and Star Wars. (Fics, art, recs, meta, vids, graphics, discussion & question posts, reviews and general thoughts, podfic, crafts, resources, news, promoting challenges and exchanges related to Disney+ shows, etc. We may have to reconsider our approach to fic if we start to get a lot of fic announcement posts.)
* Tagging is strongly encouraged (organization! woo \o/).
* No AI fanworks.
* Do not post content made by others, but please do link to it. Sharing is caring <3

If you have any questions, ask away. And if you’d like to sign up to do episode reaction posts for a show, or maybe organize a rewatch of something? You are more than welcome to here.

I’d also love a co-mod or two. Hit me up!

I've had an idea how to handle the requests posts: Make non-sticky posts for every fandom (that way people could avoid spoilers for stuff they haven't watched yet) and link to these posts (and the others that are currently stickies) in one sticky post. If someone wants a requests post for a certain fandom, they can ask in the sticky post. If there haven't been any requests/fills in a requests post for a certain time, post a reminder.

OMG, I wanted to ask about comics (Where to get them? Is digital subscription a thing, so I won't drown in stacks of paper in my little apartment? There's such a fuckload of source material that I feel too overwhelmed to look up anything! I mean, where does one even start?), but I wasn't sure if it would be on topic enough.

I'm super enthusiastic! But I'm bad with people and their expectations, so it would be very helpful if I hould have a behind-the-scenes role or something with clear instructions.

Oh yay! I'm not overly knowledgeable but I loathe floppy single-issue comics with a passion, so unless I really adore a certain series and get the shiny hardcover collection, all my stuff is digital through Comixology. You can read them on your computer through their site, or dl the app for your mobile or tablet. (they all have the feature to read from panel to panel instead of page to page, so size isn't that big of an issue).

Comixology also tends to have frequent sales, so I like to wishlist most things and check periodically. Subscribing to series gets expensive fast, so unless I absolutely have to read/keep up with something, or it's a smaller thing I really want to support, I wait for the collected trades. There's usually a bit of a discount, especially if you pre-order them/wait for a sale.

I know there's a Marvel subscription (through Marvel) where you get access to a huge part of their backlog, but I don't know how much of a delay there is on those.

Oh, and where to start? Lol I think you need a doctorate to figure that out.

But it really depends on what part of the franchise you're interested in? F.exa. they seemed to pull a lot for WandaVision from both "House of M" and "Vision". Since Hawkeye will feature both Kate and Pizza Dog, the "Hawkeye" run by Matt Fraction would be the place to start.

I'm really not well-read in comics, but I'm sure there's more than one article on the inter webs by now.
(That's actually a good idea for a post!)

Helpful, thanks!

You don't happen to know what's essential reading regarding Spidey?

Sorry, no. But he'll definitely have helpful lists made by people already.

Ooh, thank you!

Hiya!
