He/Him. I like all kinds of things: Comics, Monsters, Movies, Wrestling, Animation, Food. Just be chill and don't hate on anyone not hurting anyone, and you're cool with me.

This speech from Captain America is one all of us should pay attention to, rather than the garbage spewed in Washington today. I'm scared, for all of us, but I will do anything in my power to stand against the oncoming storm. This is my home, this is YOUR home, and they don't get to say otherwise.

Steve Rogers as Captain America delivers a very important speech to Peter Parker, from Amazing Spider-Man #537 by J. Michael Straczynski, Ron Garney, Bill Reinhold, & Matt Milla

RED WOLF #3 Variant Cover

Another very under-the-radar offering as this Series was sadly not a huge seller. But it features Red Wolf on horseback, beating-up fascist bikers! What's not to love?

What's an opinion about X-Men that'll get you sent to jail?

Colossus should've stayed an Acolyte. He'd grown very stale, his betrayal made sense from an emotional standpoint, and there was a lot of potential left in a proper villainous turn for Piotr.

Yeah it's pretty annoying and has only gotten worse by trying to fit everything the MCU does into current 616 Continuity.

Right, it was this great unresolved storyline, but eventually they were just like "Ah nobody remembers that it's fine" BUT WE DO REMEMBER. Comic Fans never forget!

I wish anything by Greg Land was done by almost any other Artist, especially the X-Men Books he did and Symbiote Spider-Man. Some great writing I just can't get through a second time, because I can't look at his garbage anymore.

A most glorious #IndigenousPeoplesDay everyone!

Today I celebrate the work and memory of Artist Jeffrey Veregge, with this wonderful piece he also wrote celebrating The Indigenous Peoples of The Marvel Universe!

With love and respect, thank you Jeff. Rest well.

This is literally just me at work every morning.

(I do love that I can still learn about creatures I've never heard of before at age 45)

Thinking about viscachas again

The viscacha, an absurd, rabbit-like creature. They are fat, furry, and have hilariously long whiskers that extend far past their bodies. This one is plopped on his butt.

A viscacha with his whiskers pointed down and his paws in a dainty position

A viscacha holding his hand up as if to say no pictures please

Another sitting viscacha but he looks SO soft and SO fat
