Hi all!

We're back to the Lifeline Comics newsletter! We've got some exciting things to talk about this week - including updates on "Slice of Life" and "Rainbow Canvas", our Convention Schedule, our ranking of the Disney Renaissance movies, and more!

Let's get into it!

Announcements

As always, we'll start with announcements relating to our comics - including the BIGGEST MOMENT YET in "Slice of Life", seeing ANOTHER KISS in our current Queer Kickstarter Anthology, and our Summer Convention Schedule!

The Kiss

The day has finally arrived: Yuriko & Lucy share their first kiss in the newest episode of "Slice of Life"!

It's honestly hard to believe that the moment is finally here. We've been waiting for this since we started the comic almost two years ago. But we knew that we wanted to build up to it properly and flesh out both the characters and their relationship to one another before finally reaching this big moment.

And let us tell you, it did not disappoint. One of our favorite pages we've ever produced in any of our comics.

The kiss comes as part of the penultimate episode of our Season One Finale! (Don't worry, you won't have to wait long for Season Two, premiering in Late-June)

You can see the Kiss in all its glory for free by watching a 30-second Reward Ad on the Webtoon Mobile App (search "slice of life gl" on the Webtoon app, or scan the below QR code):

Or by supporting our "Early Access" or above tiers on Patreon or Zestworld!

And if you prefer to wait to read "Slice of Life" as a Physical Book, you won't have to wait long! Slice of Life #4 will launch on Kickstarter in late-June! But more on that in a future newsletter.

We're so excited to share this big moment with you. And we hope it means as much to our readers as it does to us!

Rainbow Canvas - ANOTHER KISS + Limited Tiers

If one Yuriko and Lucy kiss isn't enough for you, you have the opportunity to see another one!

The "Slice of Life" story in "Rainbow Canvas" (which hit its funding goal yesterday!) just might feature a new kiss between the Fantasy versions of the characters - Sir Lucy the Brave and Princess Yuriko!

Funnily enough, we actually wrote (and got the art for) this Fantasy version of the kiss before we got the art for the kiss in the main series. So if we're being technical, this is the real first kiss 😂🤣

In case you missed it, "Rainbow Canvas" is a Wholesome BL & GL Webtoon Anthology featuring BRAND NEW STORIES from twelve of the most popular Queer Webtoon Canvas series - including "Slice of Life"! And it's already FUNDED and we still have more than the half the campaign to go! So you're guarenteed the book, and hopefully we can unlock some wonderful goodies through stretch goals.

We have some really excited Limited Rewards that are close to selling out - including our Kickstarter-Exclusive Metal Cover (sold out via Rewards, but some are still available via Add-ons) and Commissions from your favorite Webtoon Artists!

Don't miss out! Grab these items before they sell out!

Check out Rainbow Canvas here!

Summer Convention Schedule

One of the toughest tasks Phil and I go through every year is picking what comic cons and festivals we should go to during the summer. There are so many wonderful events going on during "con season" and we like to vary our schedule to hit our favorites and new potential favorites.

We finalized our summer shows and are happy to announce our schedule. Let us know in the comments if you'll be visiting any of these events, and what cons you'd like us to do in the future. (P.S. We love giving gifts to our supporters when we see you in person.)

May 20th - New Dorp Comic Con (Staten Island, New York)

June 3rd-4th - Fan Expo Philadelphia (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania)

June 4th - Asbury Park Pride (Asbury Park, New Jersey)

This is going to be an interesting weekend because it's the first time we have ever booked two events on the same day. Phil and I will be tag teaming on that Sunday with one of us going to Philly and the other going to pride. I'm sure we'll have a lot to say about this in our upcoming newsletter.

June 11th - Capital Pride Alliance (Washington DC)

June 24th - West Hartford Pride (West Hartford, Connecticut)

June 25th - Pridesfest (New York, New York)

Our June is packed with a RECORD amount of pride events. We had a blast doing New York City Pride and South Jersey Pride last year, and knew we wanted to add even more for 2023. With all our queer content, it's a great way to meet new fans and even introduce people to comic books for the first time, which is a HUGE Lifeline Comics' mission.

June 30th - July 2nd - Florida Supercon (Miami, Florida)

This was a last-minute addition, but following the wonderful time we had at C2E2 we knew we wanted to add one more Reed Pop show to the calendar. I love how Reed Pop integrates their artist alley into their entertainment content. They really allow comics to shine!

July 8th @ 2 PM - East Side Mags Signing (Montclair, New Jersey)

We even have a store signing on our list! Lifeline Comics is all about blending different types of comics into one - WEBTOON, Kickstarter, and that includes traditional comics and retailers.

July 19th-23rd - San Diego Comic Con (San Diego, California) NOT TABLING

We will not be tabling at SDCC, but Kat will be working at the event. So if there are any fellow creators or publishers that want to meet up be sure to hit her up.

July 29th-30th - Terrificon (Uncasville, Connecticut)

We did Terrificon last year and had a great time, especially with the luxurious backdrop of the Mohegan Sun. We're glad that our schedules lined up for us to do it again.

What we've been up to...

May has been a really fun month for Lifeline Comics' as both Phil and I have been able to do more community driven events (outside of your big comic book conventions).

FerryCon

During Free Comic Book Day, Dobbs Ferry Public Library put on an event for their community to introduce kids to comic books. Phil and I even did a panel where we talked to teens and college students about how to get a queer comic book/WEBTOON off the ground.

NJEA LGBTQIA+ Conference

The NJEA is a diverse, democratic organization working to create an optimal environment to achieve excellence in public education in New Jersey. It's been an honor to vend at these events, and to interact with the great teachers of the public school system to talk about bringing more queer content into the classrooms.

(They even gave us FREE FOOD...and a lot of it, that's the true key to my heart!)

New Dorp Comic Con

Kat has been doing this show since its first year, and as native Staten Islanders it's one of our favorites. We get to run into old and new friends at this very community driven event.

And we sold a whole slew of rainbow pins, the trans fox was a clear winner. Here's a picture of one of our customers repping it (along with some other pins and our Lady Vengeance plush)!

The fan feedback even helped us decide to deliver new Rainbow pins even sooner...more on that in the next newsletter.

Ranking The Disney Renaissance Movies

In preparation for the live-action The Little Mermaid remake, we're each going to rank the movies from the greatest period in Disney animation history - the Disney Renaissance! (And do yourself a favor, watch the documentary Waking up Sleeping Beauty, it's a beautiful piece about how the Disney Renaissance came to be).

When we first started talking about ranking these movies, Phil said that it would be boring because everybody loves all of the movies and would have the same rankings. He very quickly realized that he was wrong, and that's because everybody loves all of these movies, the rankings seem to vary wildly!

So without further ado, here are our very different rankings!

Disclaimer: We're excluding The Rescuers Down Under because neither of us have seen the movie (or if we did a long time ago, we don't remember it 😂)

#9

Phil's Pick: Pocahontas

Let me reiterate that all of these movies are great (which I have to do because I got heat from my friends for putting this one last 😅). Pocahontas just so happens to be the least great for me.

The animation is gorgeous and there are a couple of amazing songs (Colors of the Wind and Just Around the Riverbend). But otherwise, I feel like Pocahontas has the fewest number of memorable scenes amongst its Renaissance peers. Everything in the movie sort of blends together for me into one (albeit very pretty) picture. Plus, this movie probably has the weakest villain and weakest romance in any of the Renaissance movies 🤷

Kat's Pick: Hunchback of Notre Dame

Like Phil said, there are no bad movies in Disney's renaissance....I mean that's why they call it a renaissance. I don't hate Hunchback of Notre Dame; I've just never had a want to go back to it. I know it's an underdog of a film and I really appreciate its underlying messages, but the music and characters are a bit less memorable than the rest of the pack.

#8

Phil's Pick: Tarzan

I struggled with whether to put Tarzan at #7 or #8. I love the movie, love the characters, love the music, and love the romance. What ultimately clinched it for me is that it just lacks variety of visuals and sound when compared with the competing films.

The jungle setting is beautiful and is utilized very well, but also means that a lot of scenes sort of look the same. And the same goes for the music. I love it, but because every song is (masterfully) performed by Phil Collins, we don't get the same variety of sound that we see in the other movies.

And in the villain department, Clayton is a step up from Pocahontas' Ratcliffe. But he's more interesting for what he represents in the film rather than interesting as a character/villain in his own right. So he remains one of the weaker villains in the pack.

Kat's Pick: Hercules

I've never been a big Greek Mythology buff, which is why this is towards the bottom of my list, but I do gravitate towards this movie compared to other Greek mythology retellings. There are some plot points that are forgettable, but the overall theme of trying to find your place in the world is relatable to anyone. And most importantly it's a story about having faith in yourself. If you are confident in your personal strengths the rest will fall into place (and what is mythology without its metaphors?).

Hercules has some great bangers ranging from the poppy "Zero to Hero" to the love ballad "I Won't Say I'm In Love", but the most underrated is "Go the Distance". There are so few male "want" songs, and this one nails it. It's a song that belts out words of hope, and makes you instinctively gravitate towards the film's hero.

#7

Phil's Pick: The Hunchback of Notre Dame

The Hunchback of Notre Dame was too intense for "child Phil" when I watched most of the other Renaissance movies. I actually saw it for the first time in high school at the behest of my now-fiancé, then-boyfriend (who was horrified that I'd never seen it). And I loved it instantly.

I don't think it's controversial to say that Hunchback is the most intense Disney film. I'm honestly shocked it was made and released as it was. But I just love the ways that the darkness and the hopefulness intertwine in this movie to create a gothic masterpiece. The music is some of the best Disney has to offer ("Out There", "God Help the Outcasts", and "Hellfire" are often on my work playlist), and Quasimodo and Esmerelda are two of the most engaging protagonists Disney has to offer - made even more interesting by the fact that they're not romantically involved.

If I'm being critical (and justifying why this movie isn't at #6), I'll say that I don't love every song in this movie. And I'm also not a fan of all of the characters - the Gargoyles are a massive misfire that really disrupt the tone of the movie, and Phoebus is a touch boring.

Kat's Pick: Pocahontas

This movie was very tough to rank. The plot isn't the strongest, and looking back almost 30 years later it's very...dated. But as a kid, my brother and I watched it a lot, and there are so many songs that I feel are drastically under appreciated.

Of course, everyone talks about "Colors of the Wind", but one of my favorites is "Just Around the Riverbend". "Colors of the Wind" is a ballad that tackles John and Pocahontas' differing views on nature, but "Just Around the Riverbend" truly makes me feel her connection to nature. All while encompassing the very familiar beats from Robert Frost's "The Road Not Taken" as Pocahontas must choose her next step forward.

There are even songs that weren't in the movie that are absolute killers! "If I Never Knew You" has to be one of my all-time favorite Disney songs. I can't believe that it never made the big screen. Both leads are in bad circumstances because they fell in love, but neither regrets the choices they made because their lives would be duller without each other in it.

#6

Phil's Pick: Hercules

Disney's Hercules is full of hilarious and memorable characters - Herc, Phil, Hades, the Muses, and ESPECIALLY Megara - the latter of whom is one of my favorite characters in all of Disney.

I love the sharp script, the strong pacing, and the distinct art style and color palette of this movie. It's maybe one of the easiest movies to watch in the Disney library because it's beautiful to look at and flows so smoothly. There are some real stand-out songs ("Go the Distance", "Zero to Hero", "I Won't Say I'm in Love"). And the romance is super sweet.

And did I mention Meg?

I love Meg.

Kat's Pick: The Lion King

I hear you yelling. Don't yell at your screens!! I understand the Shakespearean brilliance of The Lion King, but I've never been a huge fan of the "talking animal" genre of Disney. I've always been more interested in grounded storytelling. So even if the Lion King tells some very relatable themes, it's still a bit too fantastical for my personal taste. But that doesn't take away from the classic earworms that spawned from this movie like "The Circle of Life" and I have a soft spot for the whimsical "I Just Can't Wait to Be King".

#5

Phil's Pick: Mulan

It really hurt me to put this one at #5. When I started putting this list together, Mulan was actually at #3. But then I kept needing to shift it up as I remembered all the things I loved about the other movies until it finally found itself here. But for all intents and purposes, everything in the Top 5 is a 10/10 movie for me.

There were ultimately two things that clinched Mulan at the bottom of the Top 5 for me: (1.) Shan Yu is a good villain, but not nearly the powerhouse that the next four are, and (2.) There are only two songs that I believe are phenomenal (you know the ones). The rest are good, but not top-tier Disney. And every pick in the Top 4 has at least 4 or 5 top-tier Disney songs.

Enough with the negatives though. Mulan is one of the best heroines in Disney animation, period. Her romance with Shang - while not my favorite - is mostly endearing. The humor and animation are all on-point (love the color palette of this movie). And the two phenomenal songs are truly some of the greatest in the Disney library.

Kat's Pick: Aladdin

Aladdin is such a well-balanced movie with so many different layers that a wide range of Disney fans can come to enjoy. It has humor with Genie, romance with Jasmin, and a mix of extremely classic songs like "A Whole New World", and even underrated hits like "One Jump Ahead" and deleted songs that are just as good as the originals like "Proud of Your Boy".

Disney Renaissance had a wonderful mixture of male and female leads (even with the plethora of famous princesses). This could be one of the leading reasons you'll find so many millennials from different backgrounds growing up on the same Disney flicks.

(P.S. just like The Lion King, this movie has some Shakespearean influence too. I'm looking at you Iago! It's a film with a ton of depth.)

#4

Phil's Pick: Beauty and the Beast

This Top 5 is so tough, guys. They're all soooooo good!

I love every single character and every single song in this movie. There's not a single dull moment. The animation is stunning (that Ballroom Dance sequence!!!). Belle is such a great protagonist. The romance is one of the best slow-burns Disney has to offer. Gaston is a top tier Disney Villain, effortlessly weaving between comedic and terrifying. And I won't even bother listing out amazing songs from Beauty and the Beast because I would just end up writing the full soundtrack.

I struggle to find anything negative to say about any of the movies in the Top 4. The base premise of Beauty and the Beast (falling in love with your captor) is definitely questionable. But I think the movie navigates it so expertly that I don't even really consider that a negative. It's just a damn good movie full of damn good characters and damn good songs.

Kat's Pick: Beauty and the Beast

Phil and I FINALLY agree on one. As an adult, I've come to appreciate Beauty and the Beast more as a time capsule of the '90s. A "princess" falling in love with her capture, isn't the type of story we'd see in a 2023 Disney flick (thankfully), but there's still something very charming about Belle. A princess who just wants to stick her nose in a book but goes out on her own adventure without sacrificing who she is as a person.

#3

Phil's Pick: The Lion King

Despite the Shakespearean influence, The Lion King feels like the most original movie in the pack. The blend of genres and song styles throughout the movie shouldn't work, but it all comes together so beautifully.

Everything about the movie is iconic. So many memorable characters, a varied soundtrack, and masterful use of its varied settings (from calm Savannah, to eerie Elephant Graveyard, to terrifying narrow stampede path, to lush jungle, to burning Pride Rock).

And I would be remiss not to mention the death of Mufasa - a scene that gives me chills to this day.

I have literally nothing but praise for The Lion King.

Kat's Pick: Tarzan

You can't go wrong with Phil Collins; his music truly shapes this movie. A good mix of fun like "Trashin' The Camp" and heartbreaking ballads like "You'll Be In My Heart". And there's something really beautiful about Tarzan and Jane's wide-eyed view on life. Both willing to learn about each other's cultures without sacrificing one's self.

#2

Phil's Pick: The Little Mermaid

If you'd asked child/teen Phil what his favorite Disney movie was, The Little Mermaid would've been the top choice without question. I would literally watch this movie on repeat growing up. Ariel spoke (and still speaks) to me in a way that few characters ever have. Ursula is without a doubt the greatest villain in any Disney movie. And I literally cannot think of a way to verbalize how beautiful the animation and soundtrack is for this movie.

Even today, I consider The Little Mermaid and the next movie on this list to be neck-in-neck, perfect in different ways.

What lands The Little Mermaid at the number two slot for me is that there some small things about the movie that I don't love. I wish Ariel had more songs. I've never been a fan of the Sebastian and Chef Louis sections of the movie. And I wish Ariel, rather than Eric, was the one to take down Ursula in the end.

But despite minor gripes, The Little Mermaid is an amazing movie that has and always will have a very special place in my heart.

Kat's Pick: The Little Mermaid

This was a REALLY tough decison! Little Mermaid is such an important film to me, and still one of my favorite movies of all-time. But the script isn't perfect. Just like Beauty & The Beast, it's a product of its time. I don't know if Ariel is a particularly "strong" character, but that's also what makes her so relatable. She's a rash 16-year-old who wants to see the world at any cost. "Part of Your World" is by far the best "want" song in Disney's vault with very few coming close to its caliber. Ursula is by far the most defined Disney antagonist with my favorite "villain song" (coming from someone who usually doesn't like villain songs at all.)

And the ANIMATION - CAN WE TALK ABOUT ARIEL'S HAIR! The water does her look justice!

#1

Phil's Pick: Aladdin

What clinches it for Aladdin for me is that every aspect of the movie is 100% on-point. There's honestly nothing I would change about it.

The songs are beautiful and so varied. The romance is my favorite of any Disney movie. The comedy is always on-point without being disruptive to the movie (which is a thin line to toe given how over-the-top Genie is). Jafar is one of the greatest Disney villains. The pacing is absolutely perfect. And Aladdin (the character) just might have been one of my first crushes 🤫

In a list full of some of the greatest movies of all time, Aladdin is one jump ahead of the rest.

Kat's Pick: Mulan

Mulan really snuck into my #1 spot, but I consider it to be a PERFECT Disney movie. From the first song, you're engrossed in Mulan's story. It's somewhat of a love story, but it's primarily about finding your own strength. There are a wide variety of tunes in this one with "Reflections" truly hitting the heart strings, and "I Want to Make a Man Out of You" being an earworm that I still catch myself singing on a weekly basis while doing chores around the house. Mulan truly started a new era of Disney with a princess' inner strength being the tether of their future storylines in the franchise. Mulan walked so Tiana and Elsa could run.

Media Consumed

Let's talk about some media!

Abbott Elementary Season 2

Phil: Abbott Elementary was one of my favorite new shows last year. It eased into its formula in a way that it often takes workplace sitcoms at least a season or two to do (we can all agree that sitcoms Parks & Rec, The Office, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia took a season or two to find their groove). So I went into Abbott Elementary Season Two with some high expectations.

Were they met? Mostly.

The first season of Abbott Elementary was able to coast without much of a strong over-arching plotline for the season. I don't think that every comedy actually needs an ongoing plot to thrive. But season two exists in a strange middle ground. They have ongoing plotlines (the Charter School problem, Janine's and Gregory's "will they / won't they"). But I actually felt that these plotlines hurt the show more than it helped it - especially the lead romance. It felt like we were spinning our wheels too much with each episode rather than actually enjoying episodes with a cast of characters who had endeared themselves to us so easily last season.

I think some of the over-arching plotlines did work for me - most notably learning more about Janine's familial relationships with her mother and sister. And I do think that the "will they / won't they" with Gregory ended in an interesting place. It's just a shame that it took so long to get there. And I have my reservations about how that aspect of the show will continue next season. Is this a real change, or will we just settle back into the status quo?

All of that said, Abbott is still a great sitcom. Every character in the show is fun and engaging. And the relationships between the characters feel real and layered. I had plenty of laughs throughout the season, and will definitely be tuning into Season Three. Here's hoping it's just a little bit closer to the 9.5/10 Season One than the 7.5/10 Season Two.

Kat: There aren't many shows I'll watch on a weekly basis, but Abbott Elementary is my rare appointment television. It feels like an old school sitcom (something TV and especially streaming has forgotten since the success of black comedies like Orange is the New Black, Fleabag, Russian Doll, etc.)

There isn't one character that shines, it's a story truly built on its ensemble. There aren't any "enemies" just co-workers trying their best to do what's best for the kids. We need more TV shows like Abbott, a bright light that breaks through the melancholy.

But I do agree with Phil, I do think Season 1 was slightly stronger than Season 2. I'm not a huge fan of the "will they, won't they" romance between Gregory and Janine. Their relationship feels a bit forced, and I just wish there was more chemistry between them. But I do like where the season leaves them off, and I'm hoping this new direction will remain a permanent fixture.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3

Minor Spoilers

Kat: Why can't superheroes let things die? Phase 4 was sold to us as a story about legacy. What happens after the Earth Mightiest Heroes disband? And with every passing movie, with every "final chapter", the MCU says...well, actually you'll probably see these characters again.

Putting those grievances to the side, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is actually one of the stronger installments to Marvel Phase 4. It's James Gunn's love letter to Marvel's cosmic universe, and you can tell Kevin Feige and friends allowed him to fully take the reins. There are times where the film is a bit uneven, but Gunn puts a lot of heart into the movie, and most importantly it's a genuinely funny movie. Mantis especially grows into her own as a likable, funny character in this one.

I also really enjoyed the evolution of the franchise's iconic needle drops. The movie opens with a grungy 90's tune with an acoustic version of Radiohead's "Creep", and ends with a 2000's pop song with Florence + The Machine's "Dog Days Are Over." Peter is leaving his 80's tunes behind to open his mind to the future.

(I also find it hysterical that this is the third movie my friends and I saw in a row that a Beastie Boys has had a song. They're really getting a pay day with "Sabotage" and "No Sleep Till Brooklyn" this year.)

Phil: Two hours into this movie, my sister leaned over to me and whispered, "How many times are they going to slow-walk towards the camera while '80s / '90s movie blasts in the background?"

In all seriousness, this was a great movie and a great finale to the Guardians trilogy. Sure, it can be a little overindulgent at times. I think the "Animal Testing" plotline tried a little too hard to make you cry. But everything comes together nicely, and this feels like a strong send-off to a great team...even though we probably will be seeing at least one of these characters again.

Comic Recommendations

Let's recommend some comics! As always, we'll share a Direct Market Indie book, a Marvel or DC book, a Kickstarter book, and a Webcomic!

Indie Comic Book: Radiant Black

Kat: The Big Two tends to monopolize superhero storytelling. It's rare to see a straight-up superhero tale in independent comics, but Kyle Higgins and co. are up for the challenge. Higgins has created his own innovative superhero universe with the likes of Radiant Black, and when I say innovative, I mean INNOVATIVE. Higgins is always thinking outside of the box when it comes to reinventing the franchise including: a ton of merch, crossovers, animated shorts, and even a Jason Todd styled "fans get to choose what's next" initiative.

DC Comic: Superman

Kat: Joshua Williamson is on a roll! Robin, Dark Ride, and now Superman! I've never been a HUGE Superman fan, but as a lover of superheroes I'm always on the hunt for a good Superman story. And let me tell you, Williamson and Jamal Campbell hit it out of the ballpark. They do a wonderful job at making the book feel classic without it getting stale. I'm surprised that some of these storylines haven't been done before because these beats are so organic to Superman's larger narrative. Just like Robin, this book feels like it has a long, thought-out plan with every issue building upon each other. A good sign of a memorable run!

Kickstarter: Witch Creek Road: Infested #1 & 2

Phil: We always love a new Witch Creek Road Kickstarter!

A story of paranoia as a group of friends try to survive the horrors (and bugs) that infest their small town.

Infested was originally presented as back-up stories during Seasons 2 and 3 of the webcomic. But this Kickstarter Director's Cut features new content, and a complete re-drawing of the story by Witch Creek Road main artist: Kenan Halilović.

We absolutely love the team behind Witch Creek Road. We've worked with both Garth Matthams and Kenan Halilović personally - Garth having been our "Slice of Life" Webtoon letterer for our first 23 chapters and Kenan having worked on both Variant Covers and short horror comics with us before. They're both amazingly talented creators, and when they team up it's some of the best horror in comics!

Support on Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/garththegeek/witch-creek-road-infested-1-and-2

Webcomic: Facing the Sun

Phil: An exploration of fear, grief, trauma, guilt, and love - all seen through the eyes of a dysfunctional android prototype well past her estimated lifespan.

This is my favorite kind of Sci-Fi story. The human element and the relationships that are made possible by the Sci-Fi world are at the forefront of the storytelling. The relationships are complex. And, of course, it's queer.

L-001, or Liza, is an Android prototype that was created to be the caretaker for Aarya. Nobody expected Liza to last as long as she has - nor for her to be capable of developing independent thought. This story is the beautiful intertwining of an Android learning about the world and humanity for the first time, and Aarya unlearning the toxic behaviors and relationships that she had never questioned before Liza came into her life.

Art is stunning and the prose is beautiful and poetic.

We loved "Facing the Sun" so much that we actually are planning a small cross-promotion with creator, Tesslyn. You'll see Liza and Aarya in the background of an upcoming episode of "Slice of Life" (the second episode of Season Two). So be on the lookout for that!
