OFFICE HOURS VOL II: Ask DC Universe Your Questions Every Tuesday Night!

[Applejack]

@Applejack

to create an ongoing conversation around “where to start” for highlighted characters

This would greatly help people like me who have a hard time knowing where to start on characters they are not fluent with (anyone besides Wonder Woman pretty much)

Good thing we’re starting with Wonder Woman! Kookie had requested Red Hood above, are there any characters you’re hoping to see?

[Applejack]

@MovieAddict

so it was just too much all at once…

Constant state of low-key panic/information overload at all times jkjk

@Razzzcat

mmm roasted garlic on toasted bread) in most of my food—grew up w/ them both in pretty much everything, lol, so I almost feel like I don’t know what I’d do w/o them!
How’s about you, @Applejack? How do you like your onions? Do you fear garlic like a vampire? Inquiring minds want to know.

I am a garlic fiiiiend! And a fiend for the sweep baby kitty you posted as well

Your mention of roasted garlic on toasted bread :chefkissyhands: I always double the garlic mentioned in recipes. Onions, I need a nice caramelization- I go pretty light on onions in things like guacamole or salsa.

You always have really neat inventive recipes, so never fear the food discussions!

Hello Applejack​,
There’s just a couple of things I wanted to say…

1. Have I ever tell you that anytime I read a comic on DC Universe Infinite I find my self almost reading out loud? Yup I’m a loud reader, I even like changing my voice to get into characters! Voice actors gets all the fun! LOL!

That’s so fun!! Who are some of your favorite voice actors? Do you imitate the voices you’ve heard in animation, or do you make your own?

@Reaganfan78

2. I’m now in season 6 of the Office, there was so many funny moments like in Stress relief part 1 during the fire, Oscar is in the ceiling and Angela threw her cat in the ceiling hoping Oscar would save it, a few feet away, down came the poor cat from the ceiling!
   I won’t be available for Office Hours tonight so have a great evening and thankyou as always for answering my questions and liking my story.

Oh my gosh, Angela and Oscar’s dynamic is so funny! Do you think you’d want Michael Scott for a boss?

No problem missing Office Hours, I hope all is well and we’ll see you next time!

[Applejack]

@Razzzcat

Hey again, Captain! I’m going to wrap up some things real quick…

@Applejack

In my mind, AKnox and @TurokSonOfStone1950 will always be the champions of Reading Recommendations

Forgot to follow up: Will there be a process for requests? I dont want to litter or create chaos…that’s only fun in certain circumstances.

I think we might have a poll that comprises a few of the characters that are options to highlight. Let me be clear, by the way: @Green.Lantern is the architect of this. His background and degrees are in library science and he has taken to this project like a duck to water. So if I say “I”, or “we”, I mean GL.

Comments and suggestions, even when unprompted, have often led to some of our funnest activities and ideas. So please let us know what you want to see! The long term plan is to have each month’s topic reflect greater franchise beats (hence starting with Wonder Woman this month).

If you have any off the top of your head, I’m listening…

@Razzzcat

@Applejack

I haven’t personally- do you recommend?

Yes! Everyones sense of humor is different, but she (Chelsea Peretti) made me laugh, so …all the newer Chappelle on Netflix is good too. What was the last stand up you enjoyed? Okay, bye. Have a great night.

I think I saw a Peretti clip and got a real kick out of it, I’ll check that one out! I saw Chappelle’s latest standup and really enjoyed it. Oooh, his “My Next Guest” episode was also really insightful.

When I think of the standup that I enjoyed the most, most recently, it’s going to be hard to beat Ali Wong. What a powerhouse.

@Mae

I’m like Tulip from Infinity Train, I love onions

DJ MAE IS BACK!

[MovieAddict]

Just dropping in for a few before we record the new podcast. We reviewed the pilot episode of Superman and Lois on last week’s podcast for those who want to listen. If you enjoy, share and get our little podcast out there, but we enjoy doing it so I don’t care if we never had listeners, we’ll keep having fun with it:

Episode 79--Paul Admits I Was Right by The Chris-Cast • A podcast on Anchor

@Applejack

DJ MAE IS BACK!

Jes, but I’m in this kind of mood today, not very tush-moving at all:

Inspirit (Extended Version)

@Applejack

Will the mysteries of our little abode never cease??? Yes, you’ve found the mothership of notifications

@Applejack

Now, the reason you can’t have a tag in both “Watching” and “Tracking” is because the Tracking functionality will also be included in Watching, so it will be redundant, ultimately.

Oh… Ah, that makes sense.

@Applejack

The little number 1 is what Tracking will get you- also just found the “draw” functionality in my annotations.

Ah, very good Captain! Yup, I just saw a notification for a nice Meta Madhouse discussion thread, and looking forward to them all.

@Applejack

Keep me posted on your discoveries, intrepid ajm adventurer!

Will do Captain.

@Applejack

I. LOVE. Superman II!! That’s a great idea to get hyped

[MovieAddict]

@Applejack

Back in a moment with a cuppa

All I can think of is “cuppa cuppa cuppa” from Steel Magnolias

[Applejack]

@Mae

I think I’ve missed a couple of these, been a tad busy and didn’t want to burden Queen Applejack with my silly stuffs! But I actually just did have a Real Question!

Giiiiirl, that’s why I was soooo trepidatious about saying anything- I didn’t want to scare people away! But I really appreciate you being so thoughtful and considerate I think as long as there are these parameters of “it’s 2 hours, and it starts earlier”, the more the merrier

@Mae

A while back there was a Q&A with someone from the team and I (or someone else who’s awesome) asked whether we would get little arrows on the comic pages to go back and forth within the series. Because right now, if you click on a random issue, and you want to check out the next one, the series thumbs below only start out from the beginning. That’s okay if it’s a short series. What if there are hundreds of issues? This would be so handy to have!

FASCINATING!! I believe we’re going to have that very same person back for a Q&A in less than 2 weeks. We’re still finalizing the details, but! I think it would be prudent to bring this up again.

I believe you’re referring to this one:

SPECIAL EDITION OFFICE HOURS: Live Q&A with DC Universe Product Manager, Aric! Wednesday, April 15th at 12pm PT/3pm ET!

Thanks for taking the time! Just a quick question, wondering if it’s possible to add a next issue/previous issue buttons when looking at a issue. I mean like say Action Comics #1000. When you open up the page for the issue, you see the issue itself obviously, but below it has the row of the rest of the series, but it’s always from the start of the series. If you’re looking at issue #1000, it would be nice if there was a quick button to progress back and forth to #999 and $1001, because otherwise…

It’s worth mentioning in a general sense that our roadmap went very wonky after the DCUI announcement, as I’m sure you can imagine. So resurfacing requests like this to the person themselves will help stabilize it again

[MovieAddict]

For me a few is like 80…

@Applejack

I am a garlic fiiiiend!

I knew you had good taste, Applejack! Double the garlic!!

@Applejack

Ali Wong.

Just thinking about Baby Cobra made me laugh. Agree. @Mae?? You, Ali Wong- Go!!

[Applejack]

@MisfitCMJ

[Applejack]

I clicked that first link at the top of Office Hours and the YT rabbit hole was so 10/10 would rabbit hole again!

@markhb

You can tell how early it was in the campaign by the fact that, AFAICR, there were no jokes about him and the ladies.

There was a subtle one at the start of the sketch.

[MovieAddict]

@Applejack

I got into Schitt’s Creek

SO glad you finally joined the party!!! I love Catherine O’Hara (from the SCTV days) and Chris Elliott (from the Late Night with David Letterman days), so it was a pre-requisite I love this show. Always happy when someone else sees how truly fantastic this series is!!!
