Found out I’ll be traveling more this year than previous. Just a bit farther, crossing these state lines more frequently; TN, KY, GA, NC, SC, VA, WV

Looking forward to visiting a lot of new comic shops. And hoping I’ve got mutuals who can recommend the best places to stop at when the time comes!

Disclaimer: the team of Carmine Infantino and George Roussos on art is pretty darn sweet for Deadman’s first appearance.

Third billing in the credits at the top of this cover (that he drew), but everyone knows the reason this Baxter series of Deadman reprints exists is due to the artistry of Neal Adams.

Back into my Hulk read-through tonight, with 141 (ending at 150 when this installment concludes). Inkers over the past few issues have included Sal Buscema, Sam Grainger, and Mike Esposito - all well known to Bronze Age babies.

But 141 marked the return of John Severin, and wowza - another level!

Hulk 141 splash - Hulk bends over to put his hand in a puddle. Roy Thomas, Trimpe, and Severin were the creators.

I like it! Much more affordable than the double Page spread too!

This is some of the best political news I've seen in a very long time.

There's a clear a way to end the Citizens United precedent by changing state incorporation laws - and now luminaries in both parties are forcing a vote on it in the 2026 election.
