FIRESTORM! (And I'm excited for Zatanna, too. It's just the last time we've had a good Firestorm series is close to 20 years ago.)

Nope. "Christians" like Joni Ernst hide behind their "belief" that, when people die, they go to "a better place." So throwing people off Medicaid is just seen as getting them there a bit sooner. This is the trap of their beliefs: they can't be wrong, it's a (weaponized) part of the belief system.

Maybe I missed this, but did "The Game," the Lois Lane story by @gronbekk.bsky.social in Batman: Brave & the Bold, ever finish? I saw the prologue in issue 10, but did I miss the rest? #DCU #DCComics #dcuniverse #Superman

A double-page art spread from The Incredible Hulk issues 72. Tony Stark and his butler run down the halls of his mansion, passing one of the models he's dating. They arrive in time to see Banner having turned into the Hulk. Stark confronts him but is thrown to the ground.

One of my favorite pieces of original art: Mike Deodato draws a double page spread wherein Tony Stark confronts the Hulk! From Incredible Hulk #72. Got this at Pittsburgh Comicon 2004. #comics #Marvel #Hulk #IronMan #MikeDeodatoJr #MikeDeodato #art #originalart #comicart

Loving Batman: Full Moon, @bishop1888.bsky.social! But for us Killadelphia fans, where is issue #36? Any word?

An X posting of US Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy saying the DOGE team will "plug in to help upgrade our aviation system."

So...Air Traffic Control managed by AI, I'll guess? I wouldn't fly in the US now, period. Matter of time before more disasters, plural.

What a mouthful!

Not Feds? Give them a few months and they probably will be if Von Shitzenpants gets his way.

Welcome, Anti-Grimm @mickmartin182.bsky.social! Your Hulk-brethren have been awaiting your arrival!

I didn't - Byrne began Avengers West Coast after he'd left the Superman books. His last DC issues were dated October 1988.

Interesting fact: Byrne wasn't DC exclusive; in fact he wrote and drew The Star Brand for Marvel from January 1988, meaning as soon as Shooter was out, he came back.

Note too that O'Neil left Marvel editorial to edit the Batman books at DC in mid 1986, with Dark Knight Returns as his return as co-editor. The 1st issue came out the month after Incredible Hulk #319. The situation kinda stinks.

It's also interesting to note that Byrne stayed on Fantastic Four for another 5 months after leaving Hulk, but only the last issue overlaps with his Man of Steel mini. The timing is extremely suspect and I doubt we know the full story. Looks like Byrne used Hulk as an excuse to leave Marvel.

I go into this a bit in my blog piece on Byrne's Hulk. Shooter says issue 320 got rejected by Denny O'Neil, who he claimed was letting his assistant do his job while he wrote on company time. Shooter says he loved the story & had Al Milgrom run it in Fanfare, which earned Byrne more money.

Apparently, late Marvel editor Denny O'Neil had his share of the blame, too, but yeah. Remember that only the letterer, colorist, and assistant editor remained on the Hulk's series between issues 319 and 320. Byrne, O'Neil and inker Keith Williams all left. A culling by any other name.

Nothing reads like "crawl up in the ass of the person who could jail all your journalists" quite like...

LOL. Now where did I say I still own the original copies of those other books? (I don't!)

If it were well-loved, I wouldn't have it today. I only have it because it was in a 3-pack of comics picked up at a Woolworth's at the local mall when I was 4.

The cover to Conan the Barbarian #146 published by Marvel Comics, which shows Conan, sword in hand, defending 3 blonde women from approaching armored men amid a sea of gold coins and treasure chests.

Not worth that much, but I think this is the earliest comic book I ever had, that I still own. Yes, it surprises even me. And I know it will also surprise @dallanb.bsky.social. #Conan #ConanTheBarbarian #comics

Can any #Batman fans reading the current Brave & the Bold series shed light on the weird intermittent appearances of Lois Lane? Felt like an ongoing thread starting in #10, and she was mentioned in solicits, but the issues never feature her. What's going on? #comics #dccomics #dcuniverse

Original artwork featuring the 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th and War Doctors in front of the TARDIS, protecting David Banner (from the 1970s TV show) from an encroaching army of Hulks from across the multiverse, including the savage Hulk, the merged Hulk, Doc Green, the Maestro, the grey Hulk, Joe Fixit, and the Green Scar. Ten is the only Doctor to notice David's eyes are white, indicating they're about to have even more trouble very soon.

In honor of the 61st anniversary of the airing of the 1st episode of #DoctorWho, here's the only piece of original art I own featuring the Doctor - or rather, 5 Doctors, plus a certain Dr. Banner, aka the #Hulk! By artist par excellance @jkwoodward.bsky.social !

Eh. You'd think the seat was too old for him now. Oh, well.

Cover artist Daniel Acuña should have become a bigger name. His stuff is incredible.

"Also, can I please have my House seat back?"

My surprising opinion? "Days of Future Past" was a great story, but started a LONG history of increasingly absurd "worry about the future" stories that stretched credulity to its limit. Rachel, Ahab, Cable, Bishop, etc. Enough already! Not everything has to have dire stakes to affect generations.

Dig that theme song!

"Magneto's hordes are on the way
To pillage, burn and plunder
But there's one team that will not yield
The team that strikes like thunder!

X-Men
This is their day
X-Men
Coming your way!"

💯👍

So if you come for ANY of my friends - my trans friends, my gay friends, or any man or woman in my life whose presence is valuable to me - you are also coming for me. Don't cross that line - do engage me in lively debate, do be open to an exchange of ideas - and we will be copacetic.

To be clear: my first inclination is to make sure people learn truths they may not wish to face. I am happy to encourage critical thinking and provide sources. But when people attack my friends, I defend those friends and I will fight back to protect them.

Is this legit? So weird.

Contrary to many I believe it's a bad idea to block as first resort, with the exception being clear malevolence or bad intent.

I believe isolating from others of a different political bent is wrong in general and has caused recent events. We should do better, be better.

Big Solomon Kane fan, so I can't wait!

For those that missed it the first time around, will @comicstitan.bsky.social be reprinting the Kane Omnibus?
