Indie Comics Spotlight: Cheer Up: Love and Pompoms Nov 24, 2022

Show notes

Cheer Up: Love and Pompoms by Crystal Frasier | Goodreads
Annie is a smart, antisocial lesbian starting her senior year of high school who’s under pressure to join the cheerleader squad to make friends and round out her college applications. Her former friend BeeBee is a people-pleaser—a trans girl who must keep her parents happy with her grades and social life to keep their support of her transition. Through the rigors of squad training and amped up social pressures (not to mention micro aggressions and other queer youth problems), the two girls rekindle a friendship they thought they’d lost and discover there may be other, sweeter feelings springing up between them.

In this episode, we're joined by Spider Dan to answer 'who is Venom'.
Created for Marvel as part of a fan write-in, at first Venom was just written in as a simple 'mistake' in Spider-Man's costume. 4 years later, we find out that he was actually a sentient creature that had been brought into this world.
Spider Dan tells us all about these origin stories and what he loves about the character. We also learn Dan's own origin story! As the name of his podcast, 'Spider Dan and the Secret Bores' is forever linked to these events.

For episode sixteen, I’m joined by a true dynamic duo – Spider-Dan and Angry Andy – to discuss the sixteenth big screen appearance of The Stath in the un-Boll-lievably bad fantasy actioner In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale.

We watch. You listen… and, hopefully, watch along too..?

Back to the Filmography is presented to you by The Pop Guerrillas, a collective of hive minds who provide spoiler-free reviews of anything from pop culture in less time than a takes to listen to a song. Check out our reviews via Anchor and Spotify or your preferred podcatcher of choice.
