Join us on Friday Mar. 10 at 6:00pm to discuss Neil Gaiman’s Books of Magic! This time, we’ll try having a virtual meeting in our Discord lounge. You can find the link below.

Did you know Harry Potter basically existed in the DC universe, years before J.K. Rowling even put pen to paper?! From Neil Gaiman, the bestselling novelist and creator of the world-renowned comics title The Sandman, comes a mesmerizing tale of the dangers and opportunities of youth, and its endless possibilities. Timothy Hunter could be the most powerful magician in the world, but does he really want to be? Guided through the magical world starting at the begining of time by a group of DC Universe magicians like John Constantine and Phantom Stranger, they attempt to aid Timothy in his decision whether or not to embrace his gift. However, by the time Timothy makes a choice, it may have already been made for him.

Join us on Friday Feb. 24 at 6:00pm (room TBA, will be updated here) to discuss Far Sector!

The City Enduring, a booming metropolis at the edge of the universe, hasn’t experienced a violent crime in generations. The Emotion Exploit has erased its citizens’ full range of feelings, allowing three resident races to overlook their turbulent history and coexist peacefully—until now. Rookie Green Lantern Sojourner “Jo” Mullein is still adjusting to her assignment to protect this strange world when a brutal murder rattles its social order, threatening to undo centuries of controversial progress. Jo must rely on her unique instincts—as a Green Lantern and the only human in this sector—to solve the crime and guide the City Enduring toward a more promising future.
