It’s both a good and bad feeling to feel like you’re always in the middle of a project.

I tried searching for some advice about what would be the best schedule to upload my videos and it’s hilarious that the consensus is “do it however you want 🤷♂️”.
I guess I’ll just upload a big one a week and make shorts from it all across the week.
I guess it’s to incentivize comments but I don’t know if it makes any difference.
I’m pretty sure that’s due to a recent update that fused the description of a post with it’s comment section for some reason.
I also enjoyed IU:BB, Lobo, G.I. Joe, SU and EOL.
Before ending this, I want to warn that I’m going to a big convention at the end of the week so it’s possible next week’s reviews will be late but we’ll see.
Anyways, have a good week, SYA
Absolute Batman #19:
This book continues to surprise me with how effortlessly it remixes classic Batman elements in a way that innovative and distinct from the previous versions while working better than reinventions done for the main universe.
The week's now over so it's time to talk about the most memorable comics I read during it.
Planet of the Apes vs. Fantastic Four #3:
This series continues to mix the elements from both of this 60s staples in a way that makes you surprised it's only happening for the first time now.
The best part of making mistakes is learning from them.
Man, this App is getting less attractive by the day.
I would not recommend sleeping 6 hours.
Now that I’ve finished my first book in my streams, I’ll have to think about what the second one will be, which means I’ll have to consider available, set up, language, popularity, format and the fact that I might be wrong about any of those factors.
Tech Jacket
While this issue doesn’t do that, It does do a somewhat good job of recapping previous stories in a way that dovetails nicely with the more horror style that this book is going for, which intrigues me.
I also enjoyed ABGL, TF, AC, UXM, IM, BC, S:LH, SW:SOM, P:N and TE2099.
Have a good week. SYA
make last issue"s cover was a total lie.
The Fury of Firestorm #1:
I have to admit that this was my most anticipated book from this week because right when it was announced I had been looking up firestorm and realized how convoluted his story had gotten, so I wanted a new book to untangle it.
The week's now over so it's time to talk about the most memorable comics I read during it.
Supergirl #12:
This continues the well thought out dramatic detour that the book has been on since the last issue into some very unexpected places.
Also it annoys me slightly that one of reveals in this issue
I did some of the short stuff that I had been thinking about and wow that stuff really ebbs and flows in unpredictable ways.
Those reading livestreams I’ve been doing have really made me really revalue my opinions on certain books, because when I’m narrating them I have to absorb every inch of the book which makes me realize which books survive that level of scrutiny and which don’t.
It’s hilarious that it took me until I was an adult to discover what a hyper fixation was because it meant that I spent my childhood thinking everyone got obsessed with something for a couple of months and never talked about it.
I hope in the future I’m also smart about what happens now.
As I’ve started to communicate more with other people I have discovered that there’s no frustration like someone not responding to you after multiple days and multiple messages with pretty impertinent questions.
I’m going to post an edit of one of the livestreams tomorrow which hopefully leads to more people finding it since I might fully switch to streaming on youtube.
Absolute Superman #18:
This starts the arc in a way that goes in some unexpected direction that allows book to continue to be quite unpredictable.
I also enjoyed Batman, B/S:WF, DD, X-men, B:YN, L:BWB, WM, DD, AFD, CM, DP, A:KK and E50th. I hope it’s easy to decipher this titles.
Happy Easter. SYA

Mad About DC #1:
This hilarious anthology allows for a lot of very talented creators to spoof the world of comics, some of which connects with what they are involve with, which in enhances the comic by giving it a somewhat official status. I also want to share that my favorite jokes were this ones:

JSA #18:
This issue ends this wonderful prequel story with a very fitting conclusion that wonderfully references a lot of in-story and real world history.
I would recommend it to anyone interested in the JSA.

ABSOLUTE Wonder Woman
It’s feels so weird to be doing video stuff again but at least it’s fun when my throat isn’t killing me.
I also looked at the game sequel and prequel comics. Both offered way more interesting adaptations of the GL lore than the movie, with the sinestro book in particular being a very interesting prequel story and the choice of villains in the game way way better thought out than the movie ones.
A domino effect with @ARTIST DRAWING THE GREEN LANTERN COSTUME AS SHINY AND FULL OF HOLOGRAMS” at the start and “THE GREEN LANTERN MOVIE FLOPING CAUSE HIS CGI SUIT LOOKS TERRIBLE” at the end.
adaptation decisions in general, like fusing parallax with krona, or having sinestro create the yellow ring instead of the weaponers. Speaking of dumb decisions, the effects used to put reynolds in the suit look terrible and it’s ironic how decades of beautiful comic art unintentionally lead to it.
people making the adaptation think the popular material is overly complicated to be directly adapted, so they rewrite the story to introduce all the important players from that popular story, which in theory would be adapted in a sequel but 95% of the time it never happens. It also makes very dumb
