Happy New Year!
I hope everyone has had a fantastic holiday season. You better all have pants that are too tight and empty wallets. If not, you’re doing it all wrong!
Before we get further into the update, I just wanted to welcome all the new subscribers who have drifted into our little corner of the internet! Since the last time I checked our community’s pulse, there are many more of you. Every year, I pick one large IP that I will post the majority of until it is complete, with alternate posts here and there to shake things up. Last time, we voted for the MCU to be our primary focus once we finished Doctor Who. I have four large IPs finished right now. Which one would you rather be our primary focus?

It has been a fantastic year for Feats N’ Faults… the first year actually. I started this feed to share this weird, nerdy passion of mine with anyone who may be interested. Surprisingly, over 200 of you have come along for the ride! I love watching this community grow and take shape. To celebrate that, this month is our yearly recap month. Not only does it give me a chance to catch up on some more shows and movies, but it also allows us to put all that data to use!

I still can’t believe we have covered over 300 characters! It is crazy how time flies and how quickly the characters add up. Have we covered your favorite yet? Let me know in the comments what characters are your favorites.
Exciting News!
As we march ever closer to another year, I want to spotlight a couple of fellow creators. As you know
and I covered the first season of Arcane over on Gamedev Relay. If you have not had a chance go check it out here! We plan to cover season two to see which sister will come out on top! I will give you more updates when we get closer to release. Until then, please go check out his page. It is full of excellent reporting on the video game industry and all the news you’d ever want.I also have something very exciting to announce.
and I will be releasing a new crosspost very soon! It’s about time we covered some anime on this feed, and I couldn’t think of a better person to partner with. Do yourselves a favor and go check out maria’s corner. It is full of fascinating deep dives into everything fantasy, anime, and manga. It’s brimming with brilliant insights. Maria and I will be talking and analyzing the classic, Cowboy Bebop. Stay tuned and subscribe to both of our feeds to stay up to date! I hope you are all as excited as I am!Lastly, another special post will be released once we hit 350 subscribers! Will it be just as weird as the Ad Icons? You’ll have to keep subscribing and sharing with friends to find out!
What To Expect This Month:
As I stated above, this month will be our recap month. We will be looking at our leaderboards for all the characters we have covered and highlighting our top and bottom 25! We will also be creating two of our very own multiversal teams to represent Feats N’ Faults in the multiverse. We have 13 roles that need to be filled by our heroes and villains. We will use our point system to determine who would best fit those roles and who will get our team’s point total as high as we can! It will be a fun mix of weird stats, pop culture, and fantasy sports. It’s going to be a lot of fun, trust me! Everyone start imagining who might be on the Feats Force or Faction of Faults!
Those waiting to see your favorite IPs covered will have to wait until next month for our normally scheduled feeds. If we have not covered your favorite yet, let me know in the comments, and I will get to it once we finish our current focus. If you want me to prioritize it, consider getting a yearly subscription and let me know what IP you are dying to have analyzed. Then we will cover it as quickly as possible. Again, I want to thank everyone for joining us on this journey. Your support is everything to me and really helps me to get these feeds out on a regular basis. I hope you all have a wondrous week, and I’ll see you all on Thursday.
Until Next Time!
I'm still a little salty about Batcher's score on your one for The Bad Batch. But I look forward to reading every week and can't wait to see what next year brings!
Excited to see what's coming next!
