!animation@lemm.ee is doing pretty well. Last couple of weeks I have started getting other people posting so I’m not feeling as pressured to find something to post every day. There was also a lot of news to share due to the recent Annecy festival. Now that it’s over, the associated subscriber growth has slowed down a little bit, but I do have some ideas to have more discussion and conversation starters rather than mostly just news all the time.

5 years is short lived?

Scarlett #1 - Been fairly interested in the Energon Universe and so far have only read Transformers. Feels like a good entry point to see if I’ll like the G.I. aspect of the universe.

Kaya #19 - This continues to be one of my favourite indies. Wes Craig has crafted a really fun world with excellent characters. #19 is probably going to be the start of a new story arc.

X-Men #35 - I always struggled to really get into the X-Men comics longterm, but following the hype of X-Men '97 I figured might as well try again, especially considering that this issue is supposed to be a transition to their new era.

Birds of Prey #10 - Really looking forward to this. Birds of Prey is the best ongoing Big 2 book imo and one of the few I regularly check out.

Damn that looks crazy trippy. Love the style. What’s the concept of the book?

Dawnrunner #2 was excellent. At this point basically anything Ram V. (especially his indies) are an immediate pull for me. Doesn’t hurt that he’s constantly working with phenomenal artists.

Having the same issue here. Some icons like from the meta or support communites don’t load:

While others like from the animation community I mod do:

The error response is the same timeout that you see.

Is that good or bad for an anime in the States?

What are the differences between Lemmy and Mbin?

So basically, had a massive spike during the reddit blackout in July last year. Dropped down to half by November and has since shown fairly steady (if measured) growth. I think that’s a good sign.

Ah thanks!

Oh you.

Love the art in that

Me who knows Pluto is a manga

I have a real soft-spot for Morrison’s new X-Men since that (and the X-Men Evolution tv show) was my introduction to the characters. The art won’t be everyone’s cup of tea, but it has interesting ideas, excellent plotting and character work. In particular I loved the characterization of Jean, Logan and Emma in this run.
