Cap-IM Newsletter: March

A bit belatedly, here’s our March newsletter!

Comm News:

10 Years of Steve/Tony was a rousing success! We saw a plethora of new fanworks pop up and some amazing shows of creativity. A huge shout-out to everyone who participated in this wonderful celebration of our favorite OTP. Be sure to check out the 10 Eras & 10 Canons Masterpost, the Anniversary Collection on AO3, as well as the tag #10yearsofstevetony on tumblr.

Remix Relay - Fruit Chain 1.5 has now been completed and revealed! You can check out the completed list here. Did you guess correctly? To see all items from the full remix relay, check out the AO3 Collection.

Reverse Big Bang progress is chugging along, and the deadline is fast approaching! Posting date claims will happen on Saturday, April 22, so be sure to communicate with your artist/author on which posting date works best for both of you. For more information on the current RBB, check out the Announcement Post. As always, if you’re stumped for ideas or struggling to churn out that last thousand words, come bother us on the cap-im chat.

BINGO 2017, Round 1 is well underway. Have you completed your fills or (like me) are still prodding at your card in hopes of divine inspiration? If you haven’t received a card yet, don’t despair! You still have until July 31, so drop by and grab a card! The previous round of BINGO has wrapped up and the masterpost can be found here.


Marvel News:

The previews for Secret Empire #1 are out and set the stage for what promises to be a tumultuous ride. While Captain America is still in control of the Avengers, or some form of the Avengers, he also is at the helm of Hydra. This issue is due to be released on May 3rd, so be sure to keep your eyes peeled for a potentially villainous Steve!

The Generations event, a 10-issue limited series, is coming soon and will revolve around Marvel’s plethora of legacy heroes working alongside their legendary predecessors in a cycle of interconnected one-shots. The storyline will take place in the current Marvel continuity and we can expect no time travel of alternate universe in this one.

In Avengers #6 we can look forward to the conclusion of the “Kang War VI” as well as some reality-warping shenanigans. Riri gets more of the spotlight than she bargained for in Invincible Iron Man #6. Captain America and the Red Skull go head-to-head in Captain America: Steve Rogers #15 which leads to Captain America changing the landscape of the Marvel Universe in a huge way in issue #16!

Are you planning on backing up this journal at DW? In case LJ goes down, you wouldn't want to lose all this hard work by mods and contributors!

It's backed up already. Just not because of the general LJ panic, more because I'm that kind of neat freak. xD

DW comm is and will stay closed for posting for now though. It's our backup place, our main hub these days is Tumblr anyway where everything gets crossposted right away.

I'm 100% Batman that way. :)

And painful lesson for the Internet at large: ALWAYS HAVE BACK-UP!

Are the AO3 collections gone? I clicked on the various links for the 10th anniversary and fruit chain and get error messages.

They are still there! Fixing the links now, sorry. There was something wrong in the html. :)
