So I noticed on Twitter that there will be a Talking Comics Book Club this weekend but haven't been able to find any details on this.
The book is Strange Attractors by Charles Soule & Greg Scott I believe. I'm really enjoying it thus far and don't wanna miss out any discussion about it.
Can somebody fill me in on how it all works and when its happening etc?

Hey man!
Book Club, as it stands, is a closed round table discussion chaired by Steve. He picks a book and then it is talked about and the members will all answer questions set by him about the book and give their opinions.
It's all broadcast live on YouTube, the previous two are there to be watched as well.
Strange Attractors will no doubt bring up some great discussion and due to it's nature mean varying things to people. So it'll be interesting to see what's said!

Cool, another Comic book club.
I liked the two previous ones about Days of Future Past and the Killing Joke, those were great discussions.

I loved both of the Book Clubs you guys have done so far. I know my appearance on the first episode was hindered by some technical difficulties but I really enjoyed listening to everybody's opinions on Days of Future Past. The second episode was great too and I look forward to hearing your guys' thoughts on Strange Attractors.

Hey Everyone,
Thanks so much for your interest and enthusiasm for the Talking Comics Book Club. The club is my project, but is still very much a work in progress.
Earlier this week I had announced trough Twitter that the book club would be meeting this Sunday evening, though as it stands the book club will now be meeting at a later date.
The fact of the matter is that I want these discussion to be entertaining, and above all else, organized. With my schedule taking a turn for the busy in the past week or so, I have not had ample time to dedicate to what I'm sure will be an amazing discussion of Stange Attractors once the meeting takes place.
My sincere apologies for the delay, but I think we can all agree that this book, and the club, deserve to be presented in the best way possible. So in order to do that I ask that you sit tight and wait for further updates. It's going to happen, just not tomorrow evening as was originally planned.
Thanks so much for your understanding and I hope that you can all tune in to the rescheduled date of the next Talking Comics Book Club.

However I haven't read either of the books involved so can't agree or disagree with any opinions put forward. Really glad your too busy to do the next one deadanchoress as that gives me time to get reading the subject matter!! Pressing download now.......:-) |

Just a quick update:
The Talking Comics Book Club has been rescheduled for this coming Saturday, the 25th at 8 pm EST.
The book we'll be discussing this week is still "Strange Attractors" by Charles Soule.
I'm going to attempt to have this book club be a bit more interactive then our precious meetings by actually paying attention to the Youtube comments.
So feel free to send your comments and questions as we're holding our meeting. That said, please bear with me as I adjust to hosting the book club. I have plans to expand it over time, but for now it's a just a place where we can hold a focused discussion on a great read.
Hope to see you there!

Strange Attractors (the collection) just went on sale at Comixology! Coincidence? I don't think so. No such thing.
Guess what my next purchase is...
