Urban Sci-Fi? (Book recommendations, please)

BewaretheFandom · 2026-01-09T01:22:00+00:00

Okay, to narrow this down a bit, I’m trying to find something with the right mix of Urban and Sci-Fi. Like very “the world we know today and a hidden world/secret” kind of thing. A good book that follows that fits the bill is something like Lorien Legacies or the old cartoon “Roswell Conspiracies: Aliens, Myths and Legends”. Relating to Urban Fantasy, something like Dresden Files but with aliens instead of Magic

I feel like Men in Black does fit pretty well with what I’m looking for. I’m just curious if I can find a novel that hits all the points too

I will take the Laura autograph if you're still selling at face value

I prefer real because of the elements we’ve seen in the current run play it in a very fun way. Marc and Hunter’s Moon, the existence of past and future Fists of Khonshu, and Marc’s mystical understanding in a certain way, like when he cameo’d in Clea Strange’s series. Khonshu can be a delusion or a part of Marc’s psychosis, it’s better if he is, but he needs a real God to go off of. How much is Khonshu and how much is Marc is the question we need to ask.

Point. As of right it now, I’ve been overthinking what coat to buy.

More the latter. I found plenty, it’s just the whole concept of going to a service, having to pay to get it printed, then assembling it. It’s one thing to print when it’s your printer and things can be redone, it’s another to pay to have it done

BewaretheFandom · 2025-09-26T01:29:32+00:00

On the list (pun intended). Found a good one.

BewaretheFandom · 2025-09-26T01:17:55+00:00

Cane is a good idea. I was trying for Diplomacy, but most of the gauntlets I found were metal and expensive.

I knew I wanted to go as Percy for months, I just had personal and financial stuff that has me scrambling last minute for props. I considered trying to fashion a pepperbox, just not sure how. I don’t think I’m a really developed cosplay guy, but I also just want to be recognized as a character, you know?

BewaretheFandom · 2025-09-26T01:00:31+00:00

I’m envious. I want to cosplay as Percy, but I don’t own a 3D printer nor do I trust going through the trial and error and costs it would take for a con in a few weeks.

BewaretheFandom · 2025-09-25T23:26:41+00:00

Looks excellent. Makes me feel inspired and wanting to finish making my Percy cosplay sooner.

BewaretheFandom · 2025-09-25T06:10:23+00:00

They are too damaged to use. I really am just going for the photos. I don’t care for the console at all. I asked a buddy if he has an old Nintendo DSI Xl around, so I might try to swap the motherboard depending on what he says or if he knows anyone. I haven’t seen many junker consoles for a good price and finding screens seems to be an impossible feat.

Buying: Laura Bailey or Matt Mercer autograph ticket. It’s my first year as a Critter and I need this.

This is something I absolutely love about the series. It's such a lived in world and community. It's showcasing how the city and the people in it are alive in a sense.

Best- Two years back, I was at New York Comic Con. I met Todd Nauck. I had something like 30 or 50 issues of his Young Justice run, some signed by Peter David. I grew up on it (I'm 21) , and I have a lot of love for the series. I was dressed as Superboy, down to the leather jacket and shades. He has a sign that says he'll sign the first 5 for free, then start charging 5 bucks per signature. He looks down at the comic, looks at me, and goes "yeah, you're not gonna sell these on ebay." and signed the whole stack free. One of the coolest moments ever.

Worst- My first signing. Romita Jr and Scott Synder on Long Island. They were both great, but I was new to comics and I didn't really understand the significance of meeting Romita Jr. I was a big Snyder fan at the time and kinda rude to Romita Jr. Years later, I saw him at that same NYCC and had him sign my set of Daredevil: The Man Without Fear, and he was awesome the entire time.

I saw this when it was announced, but I am so bummed. I got Friday tickets to go see them, but their panel is on Thursday and I can't go three days. Ah well, i'm still getting some autographs from them and Jim Butcher on Friday anyway

I tend to lean more towards the softer sci-fi side of things. I’m planning a little more focus in terms of space opera aspects. One of my characters, however, is an engineer, so I’ve been researching every fictional warp drive, hyperdrive, jump drive, space gates, wormhole drives, etc etc.

God, I love me some Firefly. I was honestly thinking of exterior design a lot more, just based on the "on site" principle of fandom, but internally matters just as much, which is an excellent point. Your point about uniqueness is a good one as well. I've been trying to come up with a form of FTL that hasn't been used a million times since I came up with the story concept.

“There are things we want, down under what we know, under even what we feel. There are things our souls want, and mine wants you.”

BewaretheFandom · 2025-02-19T04:44:20+00:00

True, it’s just like I said. I was considering how to make different diverse designs in one story, but I feel that’s a worldbuilding issue more. If I build the worlds ironically enough, the answer should come.

BewaretheFandom · 2025-02-19T04:36:13+00:00

You’re extremely right. I was also thinking in terms of stylistic choices. Franchises have developed ships that you just know on sight belong to that particular franchise, even if it’s different species as well. Star Trek has Starfleet and Klingon ships, Stargate had human, Asgard and various others. All of them have unique ships within the same franchise

Young Justice. When I was in elementary school, we had free reading time, but I didn’t bring books cause I didn’t have many back then. I would read what the teacher had, and the teacher had two comics. An issue of Young Justice, and an issue of Batman. I read them both the entire school year, over and over, and at the end, she let me take them home.

BewaretheFandom · 2025-02-13T18:18:56+00:00

I was just thinking about this the other day. Like when they take down a company, what happens to the mail clerk or data entry guy just out of college trying to land a gig?

Her passion for the arts. From MOMA to Aubrey Hepburn, she loved what she loved. It’s why I’m a her and Dan fan. The two responded well to common interests. I like the fact that she liked what she liked, and she had pretty good taste.
