I don't just like Karate Kid, I love Karate Kid, and yes, I'm still salty about Keith Giffen marginalizing and then killing the character off because he didn't like him.

I love the original space opera/superhero mashup, from Englehart's original weirdness (where we meet Space Hippy God, really) through the Claremont/Infantino stuff.

I got this one (and the issue before it, and I think a random Wonder Woman) in a Whitman three-pack at the grocery store. My introduction to the Star-Spangled Kid, who I thought was pretty cool.

This water planet story was the first story in the Marvel comic that felt as epic and awesome as Star Wars the movie to me as a kid.

I didn't expect to like ElfQuest (small elves felt Keebler-esque to my young mind), but a friend insisted I would, and he was right.

Being shown this issue at Collector's Bookstore by the Judge himself, especially since I had been to Robstown and seen that water tower, blew my young mind and prompted me to start making superhero comics set in Rockport and featuring me and my friends lol

Speaking of which, I wonder if the family still has the Relampago! rights. It would be awesome to crowdfund a new Relampago story with a collection of the original issues in both English and Spanish!

This sounds vaguely familiar somehow...

There are surprisingly few good, original American space opera comic book series.

I don't remember much about this character, actually, but I was really captivated by the gritty computerized art.

I dunno guys, I'm starting to think maybe Donald Trump is just a dimwitted conman whose only technique is bald-faced lying. Has anyone looked into that before?

One of my favorite covers with one of my favorite characters (love this version of Reddy) and one of my favorite retcon stories.

I've been training in kung fu my entire life to be able to do this, and now my time is coming -- I'm looking at you, Boston Dynamics! Should go well for me.

My early covid beard, which sadly is as good as I can manage these days. It was a fun dream while it lasted. But hey, how about those serial killer vibes, huh?

Yeeeeaaaaah, that's gonna be a no for me, dog. (But I'm happy for people who like his previous Avs work.)

Gonna need more comic book goodness in the form of comic book covers featuring characters I like today. And a reminder that real heroes don't surrender.
