“Who Is Like God?” by A_LazyPanda (BONUS Batfam/Superman chat at the end)

This week Sara and Laura discuss “Who Is Like God?” a work in progress (WIP) written by A_LazyPanda (some of you may know her as Gia467). Centering on the character of Miguel, this work is a type of hero’s journey story that straddles the metaphysical line between the Valley as we know it, and something far more mysterious, magical, dark, and dangerous. It’s a story about the gray areas-- between right and wrong, between the ‘real’ and the fantastic, and between free will and fate. The story is also enhanced with a carefully chosen soundtrack (see Youtube playlist below) and some truly lovely fanart.

Perfect for readers looking for a refreshing departure from typical fanfiction plots and tropes and the typical romance-centered story, dive into this WIP now and be ready for the conclusion!

(ALSO: Laura and Sara end the episode at 1h14m ; from there till the end they talk recent engagement with the DC Comics Batman and Superman fandoms. Stick around for that if you want to geek out with us!)
