Recent reads. I liked how #Superman was portrayed in DC K.O. but didn't like the issue.

It's the latest Legion review, taking a look at Legion of 3 Worlds #2 & 3. Did you know who the big guest star revealed at the end of issue 2 was?

#LongLivetheLegion

Two surprise guest stars in two issues... Is this some kind of a record or do they just not want to focus on the Legion?? We look at Legion of 3 Worlds #2 & 3

Today's post about our mortgages

2025/10/09

So, we bought a house! Technically purchased on 2025/10/06 This will be our new home starting next week. If you're in the Vancouver, WA, area, stop by for a visit. We already met one of our neighbors, Dave, and his cute dog. But now comes the hard part: finish packing, cleaning (and selling) our Idaho house, and then unpacking. Whew!
