That'd be a damn shame, if so.

Nus Braka is the most evil #StarTrek villain we've seen since Gul Dukat. Incredible. #StarfleetAcademy

It was an honor and a privilege to join the wonderful panel at Discovery Debrief to discuss one of the most impactful episodes of Trek we’ve ever seen. Thanks to @chrisclow.bsky.social, @stubbystan.bsky.social, and @zakiscorner.bsky.social for a great conversation about DS9, SFA, and their legacies

I was gobsmacked and emotionally punched in the gut when last week's episode of #StarfleetAcademy was a 58-minute love letter to Benjamin Sisko, the legacy of DS9 and the legend himself, actor Avery Brooks.

Listen to us break it down on the latest episode of @trekdebrief.bsky.social. #StarTrek

That's the second week in a row this show has left me in tears. Are they all going to be like this?! #StarTrek #StarfleetAcademy

So...I went through some things in one of these #StarfleetAcademy episodes we talk about on the latest @trekdebrief.bsky.social. It would've been embarrassing if anyone else besides my wife was sitting next to me, and honestly it still kind of was then.

But this is a terrific show! Listen in.

For anyone from the comic book community coming over from Twitter or elsewhere, I made these starter packs a while back (as of now there's 7 in total) of everyone I could find in comics!

Maybe that's the "in" that can get us to something akin to the Morrison Batman, existing in such an insane and improbable world while still feeling familiar and truthful to the guy we all know and love. Just a thought.

Living with the mere fact that he doesn't need to be so alone in seeking out what he wants has the possibility to provide a different perspective to his outlook on the overall mission that other recent cinematic Batmans (Batmen?) have just not been capable of having.

That doesn't mean it will or should, but I would imagine that could lead to a familiar, if perhaps ever-so-slightly lighter, version of the Dark Knight Detective.

Mark Waid once described that at the end of the day, unlike the villains, the heroes all want the same thing.

In @mattreevesla.bsky.social' Gotham, he is isolated and fighting against an overwhelming tide. But in @jamesgunn.bsky.social's DCU, the mere existence of Superman offers something that Batman, I hope, would be a greatly encouraging sign: it's possible for the ongoing mission to end.

Something I hope can substantively set apart #DCU #Batman is something emphasized recently in #Superman: this is just a different world.

Maybe a little on the nose, but who am I to judge? I would have laughed.

Too many are interested in "fighting fire with fire," I'm way more interested in fighting fire with water.

Cain decided what he was going to say before he even saw the movie. And he has a short memory, as someone else has already pointed out. youtu.be/5NuPqWzJHmY?...

Some things never change, and some things do. One thing that doesn't is the need for hope.

We all get it from different things. For me, #Superman is one of them, and probably always will be.

#Thunderbolts is the best movie Marvel has made in several years. Highly recommended, and even thematically beautiful in such a pleasantly surprising way.
