Tumblingsaber - A Star Wars Podcast

Hey everyone!This episode was first heard by our Patrons, lovingly called the Powerful Friendz over at patreon.com/tumblingsaber! Become a Powerful Friend and you can gain access to this pod, and everything else we do early, ad-free, and sometimes even exclusively!We've spent a fair bit of time talking about comics and the comic book industry lately, but the rub is none of us actually work in the industry! We decided to rectify that gap in this episode by bringing in Carmelo Chimera, owner of Chimera's Comics in Chicago, and author of the graphic novel Magnificent.This is honestly one of best episodes of the podcast we've ever recorded and I want to give a shout-out to co-host and fellow Powerful Friend Rik for making this happen (this is Rik's LCS after all!). In this episode you'll learn a great deal about how comic book shops operate, the challenges they face on a daily basis when times are GOOD, but also the threats they face in light of our chaotic times.We hope you enjoy this episode! Let us know your t

Hey everyone!Hope you all had a great weekend full of that awesome Clone Wars goodness! Obviously we're going to gush all over the place after that treat of an episode, but we also have some significant collecting updates, a tiny bit of Cassian Andor news, and a huge slice of Bradley Banter, which has us talking about the World Between Worlds, epiphanies, and a whole lot more! It's another packed episode that will keep you busy for a couple hours of this seemingly endless lockdown!Also, if you catch the number of Rebels references Cory makes in this episode, please let us know.

Hey Everyone!What's your view of the balance of the Force? Is it a fixed idea or a fluid notion? Are you confused or crystal clear on it?

Hey everyone!With the Skywalker saga over, we thought it was a good time to talk about how Lucasfilm and Disney market the Star Wars franchise.

Hey everyone!This week on the podcast we've got Michael Moreci on the podcast to discuss his upcoming Clone Wars - Battle Tales comic series from IDW as well as his numerous other projects! We get into what it's like to work with Lucasfilm's story group, pitching ideas, and sorting through ideas and stories when you have some many stories to tell. It was a really great chat and we're definitely going to have Michael on again to go even deeper on his work in the GFFA!We've also got a quick and easy contest at the end of the pod, so stay tuned for that. As Powerful Friendz, you get the benefit of a full day's head start on everyone else, so if you want a copy of Michael's novel, "Black Star Renegades", make sure you're paying attention!Finally, as comic book shops enter a scary and uncertain future, we thought it appropriate to share out some links to our local comic book shops:• Rik and Michael in Chicago shop at Chimera Comics and Challenger Comics.• Michelle shops at TFAW in Hollywood, and South Side Comics
