If you had the power to bring Lovecraftian mythos to mainstream, how would you do it?

With Widow’s Bay and the upcoming show Below, eldritch horror may finally enter the main fray. I’ve always thought a tv show loosely based on the Arkham Horror tabletop characters would do well or a Far Cry game oriented around a New England island setting with cultists and Lovecraftian creatures. What would you guys like to see?

Anyone else have an unusually long review process with Springer journals?

Submitted a manuscript to a collection call at Genome Medicine the first week of January. Months later they asked if we could find reviewers for them to invite. They ended up locking in 4 reviewers but we still have yet to receive a first decision. I know that academia is facing major hurdles right now, particularly with reviewers and funding, but coming up on 8 months before a decision seems strange, right? Is this anyone else's experience?

Note: We have contacted the journal on a bi-monthly basis asking for updates and suggesting submission elsewhere but they have insisted we wait it out.
