Solidly in the eyebrow camp. So glad they went with that look in the MCU.

Feel a little guilty for not posting more. As good a time as any to note that one way I manage anxiety when trying to sleep these days is to think of KBAC chracters. Different rules. List them chronologically. List characters not based in Astro City itself. Etc.

Happy Solstice Dan!

Today, some Ghoulish rock and roll from the Phantom A.D. (formerly Isaac Rother & The Phantoms). He is touring right now and puts on a really fun show. If he is in your neck of the woods, go see him. You won’t be disapointed!

Patriotic protesters wearing goofy inflatable frog costumes are using laughter to fight facism. And there’s nothing a bully hates more than being laughed at.

If this were true, I would have dated a lot more in college.

Saw Superman for the second time tonight. A month after it opened in a half full theatre, there was still lots of laughter and excitement. Also genuine surprise in a few spots, so at least some of the audience must have been seeing it for the first time. Applause at the end. Movie of the summer.

Comics are good.

If you see this, post a Marvel cover you love.

If you see this, quote this post with a time travel movie that’s not BACK TO THE FUTURE

A small delight of mine is when a live action genre sound effect is translated in comics or prose to a phrase known only to a hardcore fan.

The “vworp vworp” of the TARDIS dematerializing.

The “SKREEONK!” of Godzilla’s roar.

The “snap-hiss” of a lightsaber igniting.

What’s your favorite quote from a graphic novel or comic.

“I’m loyal to nothing, General - except the Dream.”

Some of my favorite Captain America stories

I think they missed a great opportunity not keeping this character around.
