Description

Back in July 2020, Brandon and Henry were welcomed by the Association of Jewish Libraries to present at their Digital conference. Originally the conference was supposed to take place in person, in Evanston, IL. Obviously, because of the pandemic it was moved to Zoom. This was a unique opportunity to share the world of Judaism and Comic books with people who deal with books on a daily basis. Brandon and Henry first shared highlights of the podcast, spotlighting The Thing, Batwoman and Kitty Pryde, followed by all of the Jewish references to Colossal Boy including a live reading of TEEN TITANS GO! #49.
