We’re back with another fun filled Sunday Monday! Heather from geeking-by.net is running a poll on Seriously Geeky Sundays right now. Check it out! 28th March – Around the World in 8 Sundays [Africa] It’s the final Around the Sundays theme and our Seriously Geeky Sundays ship has reached its final destination; Africa! What is your favourite fandom set in Africa? Marvel’s Black Panther (Wakanda forever!) and Stargate (1994 film). I talk about Stargate in another question, so I’ll focus on Black Panther . I loved everything about it right down to the costumes and sets. It captivated me because it was so imaginative and had a cast of well written (and acted!) characters. And can we give the wintery Jabari tribe some love? Goodness, as I’m searching for clips, I’m remembering every single thing I absolutely adore about the movie! https://youtu.be/r8nxdAGg2FY Who are your favourite fictional African characters? T’Challa – He first appeared in Captain America: Civil War, and he was immed

To say that I was thrilled when I saw this week’s Seriously Geeky Sundays topic is a huge understatement. I am excited to go down memory lane with this one–even if it reveals just how old I truly am.

Hello, Everyone! I am back with another fun filled Seriously Geeky Sundays brought to you by Heather ! I’ve been busy these past two weeks with a virtual conference, so I hope today’s post makes up for it. 7th March – Maiden, Mother, Crone March 8th is International Women’s Day (IDW), a worldwide celebration of women, and later this month it is also Mother’s Day in the UK. What better time to think about the leading ladies of fandom? Who is your favourite leading lady? I couldn’t possibly choose just one! There are so many well written women that I’ve admired over the years, so I included a few honorable mentions at the bottom of this question.

She is such an iconic character, and I’ll always rank her among my favorite female leads. Ellen Ripley – Alien Honorable Mentions Starlight – The Boys Queen Maeve – The Boys Kimiko – The Boys Princes Leia – Star Wars Delenn
