Hello Watchers! Originally, your friendly neighborhood producer Lady H wanted to discuss the Spider-verse abstractly: discussing Spyder-Byte and Jessica Drew during an episode of Black women, femme, and nonbinary superheroes. And then Lady H got a message from Spider Society X (Black Marvel, Mme Lazet, Miss V, Anwar Starwind, and Mo) that we needed to do an episode on this movie and the animated Spider-verse. Who ignores a message from Spider Society X? Not Lady H, and hopefully not you. Please stay tuned for your introduction to our secret society, and if you haven't seen the movie, it premieres on Netflix today, October 31, 2023. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/watchwithyou/message
