If anybody in comics was going to go all in on building the computer god, I feel it would be them.

I'm doing a big read through of a 90s DC series I've heard a lot about and never dipped into. At the halfway point DC Infinite is giving me all the annuals, tie ins and one shots, which means in an hour the story hasn't progressed, but has been spoiled because the annuals are served out of order.

I'm in that middle generation who were told that sharing personal information like your address and your face with the whole internet was a bad idea.

Everybody older and younger loves that more than anything.

Tesco have biscoff popcorn out for Christmas.

I get the feeling that a handful will be pleasant, and more than that will be vomitworthy.

I watched Ex Machina on a plane and I think a lot of the nudity was blurred out.

There is a DC and Sonic the Hedgehog crossover comic that, for some reason, contains a reference to Rankles the otter, a joke from Sega Magazine in 1994
gaming-urban-legends.fandom.com/wiki/Rankles...

"I've completed Sonic and Knuckles and many a mickle makes a muckle" is still etched into my mind

A cropped panel from DC x Sonic the Hedgehog.
Amy (in a Wonder woman outfit), Tails (in a cyborg outfit), Sonic (in a flash outfit) and Knuckles (in a superman outfit) are talking to a green knuckles like creature with great big feet.
The green creature says "Hold on! security check! only one otter per planet!"
Tails says "Knock it off, BEAST BOY"
