The Occult Rejects - w/guest Greg Carlwood (Host of The Higherside Chats)

Howdy, folks of the interwebs! Your host Double J is back with a shenanigan infused journey into mind of this particular Garbage Can Dood! Today's adventure we are talk'n tales of a galaxy far far away, in a time long long ago! That is the tales of Marvel/DC Comics and the origin story of these tales...These Ancient Alien Cargo Cult concepts and ideas permeate our modern culture and society in the form of epic space narratives of "Star Wars" and Marvel/DC Comics big budget Hollywood blockbusters!Where do these Ancient Alien Cargo Cult concepts come from? Are these the belief systems of a small but powerful and wealthy group of folks who comprise a cult network of Ancient Alien Cargo Cultists, who seek to convince the rest of humanity of their cult belief system?It certainly seems that is the case with Marvel/DC Comics, at least in this dood's perspective! Especially in consideration of the "superpowers" and galactic overlords - sounds very similar to the philosophies of Scientology, a Thelemic offshoot cult.The origin story of the folks responsible for Marvel & DC comics begin in the Sci-Fi/Pulp fiction writers circa 100 years ago. Where these writers would be in the immediate orbit of other Sci-Fi writers, such as Scientology founder L-Ron Hubbard, via a Los Angeles based Sci-Fi writers club. In fact, that Sci-Fi writers club leader, editor, publisher, and literary agent for many of these writers in the club, a Hollywood legend named Forrest J. Ackerman would even claim that this writers club were both engaged in Thelema and Scientology! The specific type of Thelema was the OTO - Agape Lodge run by infamous occultist and rocket engineer, Marvel "Jack" Parsons.So, does Marvel comics owe its namesake to Marvel "Jack" Parsons? Do we see tribute to Parsons even in DC Comics' "Suicide Squad"? And lastly, can these patterns of this Thelemic fan fiction be exhibited in the actions of the actors who star in the Hollywood big budget films based upon Marvel/DC Comics?Anyhow, folks of the interwebs! Thanks for join'n us to get a lil GCD! And folks of the interwebs buckle up as we have a real barn burner today, "Marvel/DC Comics...Thelemic Fan Fiction?".Enjoy the show!Links for JJ - https://linktr.ee/operationgcd
