Last month SDCC did their first ever Comic-Con@Home. If you virtually attended any part of this and would like to share your experience and thoughts on this or on any of the other virtual comic cons that have been taking place this summer, let us know! Reach out to us on Facebook or just click my name up above.

Features has two exciting interviews this month. The first is with Mike Maihack with regard to Cleopatra in Space, which just released the final volume. The second is with Jeremy Whitley and Jamie Noguchi for their newly launched series School for Extraterrestrial Girls. Mid-month we're running a special "Tomb Raider" reprint of a roundtable from five years ago about misogyny in the comics world. Tart Lori starts a new Regal Reads focus: Bayajidda. And I spotlight a review of The Hated #1, which is a timely read despite being set almost 150 years ago in an alternate history.

Culture Vultures opens with Tart Patti looking at how well Old Guard transitioned from comic to Netflix movie. Tart Wolfen has two more articles on The Untamed, continuing her multi-part study of the relationship between Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji ("Wangxian"). Tarts binged Umbrella Academy Season 2, so you can get our thoughts on it this month! And Tart Lori dives into The Cat Returns for her new Majestic Movies series.

The Report Card has some is where you'll find reviews of new and upcoming manga, comics, and more!
