As Batman comic readers our cups are really running over with greatness right now. Absolute Batman is pushing the style envelope and giving us a cool new blue collar take on the dark knight. Fraction is doing really topical self contained stories 1/2

Makes a lot of sense in a day in age when people are fearing the army being turned on citizens more and more.

This is also too when Batman is being written more as a social worker who often buts heads with more and more power tripping dirty cops.

Case in point both the newest runs Action Comics & Captain America tell updated origin stories for their respective hero. Where in both tell a prominent General (Lane/Ross) that they refuse to use their powers as part of the military industrial complex.

Working a bit more on my Christmas/Thor Mashup dnd concept I came up with last holiday season. I call it Age Of Jingle-Bal-Rok

Would love it if some of my friends/fellow content creators could be free to play. But it's the holidays so everyone is no doubt gonna be busy.

Remember when you would get a show on VHS and they would sometimes make a big picture.

That was pretty cool, I'm kind of obsessed with shows that had full seasons on VHS for the window of time that was a thing.

Watched the first episode of Task tonight. It was probably my most excited for new drama of the year and it did not disappoint. If you loved Mare Of Easttown this will fill that neo noir delco shaped hole in your life.

GCW really cannot get enough praise for being THE go to place for wrestlers old and new to rehab, refresh & reintroduce themselves to the world after leaving their respective TV companies or coming back to wrestling after time away.

Just found out this year for Halloween @idwpublishing.com is putting out a collection of kid/family friendly scary stories called Spoops. And it might be the most adorable thing I've seen in a long time for comic books.

It is February 1998
King Of The Hill & Silver Surfer are both in the pop culture zeitgeist.

It is July 2025

Massive ice storm in my area last night. Power outages, down trees and I only just got internet back right now. To think I almost missed my first upload in literal years.

If the great Viola Davis has her heart set on being an MCU Iron Person might I be bold enough to share a pitch? . Let her be a cool new updated version of Detroit Steel.

Everyone remembers the name and the suit but little else. Meaning you have room to reinvent for the movies.

If you wanna look at it from a historic lenses the trend is as old as Lewy Anderson & Howie Mandell.

What are the odds that 3 different animated series about the childhoods of famous comedians would all be coming out around the same time?

A wise man once said, bored fans stop reading but angry fans don't. And its really really hard not to see that kind of ideology steering the creative choices on the mainline Spider-Man for the last couple decades.

Hey at least we got the new Ultimate universe.
