Episode LXIX - Narratives of Great Disaster
Description
This week on FCSA: The Great Hyperspace Disaster of the High Republic is the latest in a number of post-cataclysmic stories that we *just happen* to be getting during this Pandemic. The Expanse, Picard and Season 3 of Discovery also reflect moments of great instability. What do these creative expressions of disaster explore? What do they say about the times we're living in? And what might a pair of Faster-than-Light disaster stories express about human division and connection? This packed episode includes some bleak moments, but ends on the high notes!
I begin with a few added thoughts on the High Republic preview event from last week, and the Pull List opens my discussion with Cavan Scott's High Republic #1.
Thanks for listening, and MTFBWY
