  • 13 Days in Japan
    Graham & Kathleen from LoadingReadyRun filmed their trip to Japan and posted it online. I basically waited until all the episodes were up before I put it in the APB. If you liked Kate’s travelog and wanted to see more this is a good followup.
  • Roman Reforms II: The Quickening
    With the Elder Gracchi brother dead the younger brother takes up his mantle with a firey temper the previous sibling did not possess. How will the sequel fair in comparison to the original?
  • Give Peace a Chance
    The birth of the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) nations was not a simple path but the road to unification is never simple.
  • Injustice: Gods Among Us
    All Geeks Consider looks at American Gods by Neil Gaiman. They talk about this battle between the old and the new gods just before TV adaptation come out on Starz.

  • Literary Comics
    More and more traditional authors are joining the graphic novels boom.
