| Lost & Found 1/8/2020 Chris H January 2020 "found" us at Drawing A Crowd to start off the new year with our lost worlds / lost and found theme. Some of the comics Haywood highlighted:
The TV show Land of the Lost was viewed, as well as Lost Horizon (1937) starring Ronald Colman and Jane Wyatt. The Lost World written by Arthur Conan Doyle and it's 1925 silent film starring Wallace Beery as Professor George Challenger were also mentioned. Conversation continued at a nearby diner where we were still singing the Land of the Lost theme song....Marshall, Will and Holly, on a routine expedition. Met the greatest earthquake ever known..... Fun and Informative. |
| Getting There Is Half the Fun - Deep, Dark Magic - Pirates Ahoy! 12/11/19 recap Chris H With Haywood under the weather, Barry was kind enough to step in and moderate. The big news was The CW crossover event "Crisis on Infinite Earths" being shown on five nights on Supergirl / Batwoman / The Flash / Arrow / DC Legends of Tomorrow. Barry gave a history of the comic book basis and showed trailers for Crisis and some of the films based on comics. All the attendees went to a nearby diner to continue the conversation. Fun and informative evening. |
