Lars of the Stars storyline coming up in Steven Universe comics

Alright, we’ve had a few days to mentally process Diamond Days, so now it’s time to cover another announcement that was made recently: starting with issue #25, the main Steven Universe comic series will feature a storyline about Lars and his off-color crew.

From the announcement it sounds like we’ll be getting Lars’s perspective on the events of Lars of the Stars, then follow him and his crew for some brand new stories.

We love the slice-of-life stuff from the main comics, but this story arc promises to be a good substitute.

Issue #25 releases on February 27, 2019.

Air dates and descriptions for Diamond Days

The Futon Critic has the air dates and episode descriptions for the upcoming episodes of Steven Universe. The first four episodes will air one per week (yay!) on Mondays at 7:30 PM EST, with one week off in January before a four(!!!)-part special which will begin at 7:00 PM EST.

Lunar Sea Spire podcast episode 218: Giving thanks for Steven Universe in 2018

GC13 and David give thanks for Steven Universe’s 2018 exploits (and some things from after Thanksgiving in 2017).

Not only was a very big question answered, but smaller questions were answered. Back among the big questions, we also know at least the appearance of all four Diamonds and their Pearls.

Plus, Craig of the Creek has started airing, and OK K.O.! has continued going strong. It was a good year not just for Steven Universe, but for its alumni as well.

Of course news we are very thankful for broke too late to be included in the episode, and that was the announcement of five new episodes, starting with Legs From Here to Homeworld, airing on Mondays starting on December 17.

New episodes to begin airing on December 17, 2018

We were waiting for news? We just got it: Steven Universe is coming back with a new batch of episodes beginning on Monday, December 17. Five new episodes airing nightly at 7:30 PM EST? Call us excited!

Unfortunately this news broke too late for us to include it in our Thanksgiving podcast episode, but we are definitely thankful!

Lunar Sea Spire podcast episode 217: Harmony #4

GC13 and David discuss the fourth issue of the Harmony miniseries.

There’s one more to go! This one definitely has the biggest cliffhanger yet, though depending on how the comic ties in to the movie (which is a pretty good bet at this point) there may be an even bigger cliffhanger at the end of issue #5. Or maybe everything will just seem wrapped up, only to be unraveled at the start of the movie.

Either way, we eagerly await the arrival of issue #5 to wrap up the miniseries on December 5.

Harmony #4 is out today

The fourth of five issues of the new Steven Universe comic miniseries, Harmony, has released today.

Haven’t been following the series? Here’s the preview for the issue. There are spoilers, sure, but it should definitely pique your interest.

We’re in the home stretch. Can you read this issue and not have a pretty good idea how the teaser for the movie could tie into this miniseries?
