The Fake Ass Book Club hit the PopCon Indy stage for a special live recording, diving into Storm Issue #2 – “Chapter 2: Death by Voodoo.” Moni and Kat break down the action-packed storyline, from Storm’s fierce confrontation with deadly enemies to the layered magic and mayhem at the heart of the comic. They explore Black representation in comics, the evolution of fandom culture, and why Storm remains one of the most iconic—and underappreciated—characters in the Marvel universe. Your favorite hosts also pitched their dream MCU storyline: a grown, goddess-level Storm crossing paths with none other than T’Challa’s son. The sparks?! The possibilities?! Somebody call Ryan Coogler. The cherry on top? A surprise visit from The Normies podcast crew (https://www.youtube.com/Normies) mid-show, turning the episode into a full-on comic culture party. Whether you’re a comic book head, casual fan, or just here for the laughs, this episode delivers insightful commentary, geeky joy, and a reminder that representation in the arts still, and always, matters. Cheers!
