Just finished Die. Call it recency bias, but it's the best thing I've read all year. Power fantasy a close second (@kierongillen.bsky.social can do no wrong as far as I'm concerned), tied with pretty much @denizcamp.bsky.social 's entire output. The rest of the absolute universe takes bronze.

Nothing warms my heart as much as seeing someone doing this. The world is *full* of people doubling down on shit they don’t even believe out of a sense of pride, and seeing someone graciously acknowledge being wrong, in full public view, is quite inspiring.

Reading the X-Men Blue & Gold omnibus, and my god Jim Lee's Magneto is just non stop aura farming (as the kids would say)

The (unfortunately short) period my child enjoyed watching the octonauts were happy times for me. That and Bluey are up there for me. Had to put up with a lot more of Paw Patrol which is such a waste of a good set up and a much inferior show.

I've been loving the Ultimates, as well as the line in general. I think the arguments you've given make a lot of sense. If nothing else it's going to make for some great self contained collected editions to go on the shelf =)

D.C K.O #1 was incredible, I'm not the biggest fan of events, so had my expectations in check. Was completely blown away. @ssnyder1835.bsky.social does a great job on the story, so much hype! And the action by Javier Fernandez is awesome! Can't wait for the aura farming.

I loved Absolute Batman #13. Catwoman's design is so cool, @nickdragotta.bsky.social 's designs are incredibly iconic. I got all 3 of his variants xD, A, H and I. Now I need to find a way to snag one of those Felix art design variants =(

The Power Fantasy #12 by @kierongillen.bsky.social and @casparw.bsky.social was incredible. I did not see that coming. My only regret is that my social media reach is quite limited =( everyone needs to be picking this up! I want 100 issues min!

Started reading the original today. Only two issues in but already it's got it's hooks in me. Having loved everything I've ever read from @kierongillen.bsky.social I don't know why it's taken me this long to get to it.
Will definitely be picking this one in singles!

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

That The Power Fantasy has provoked a zine with as much in it as this, not once, but twice, is a hell of a thing to see. It's genuinely amazing.

One time I spent five minutes at lunch drawing a reverse centaur and it became one of my most retweeted pieces of art. I resented that so I deleted it but now it can be free again because not enough people follow me on here for it to go big

Sometimes I feel like my biggest mistake in life was learning English (especially at a young age). This feeling is very much linked to the notion that Mgs2 and mgs V were in practice prophetic. Languages are nations and virus can spread through them.

TLDR: I wish I learned french instead of English

Late to the "party", but man, expedition 33 really hit me hard.

I'm really excited for Ghost of Yotei, but I think E33 is a lock for game of the year.

I used to work a place that had a wearhouse with lights that worked off of movement sensors.

To be clear. You couldn't turn the lights on or off.

They came on when they sensed movement and went off when movement stopped...

Every time the eye creature pops up in alien earth it takes me back to Hickman's and @nickdragotta.bsky.social's brilliant East of West.

Ta-Nehisi Coates has written the best yet commentary on last week's events, while pundits, politicians and others have disgraced themselves in their whitewashing of of this man's legacy. www.vanityfair.com/news/story/c...

Hey all! I'd like to thank the world's media institutions, and of course the Bluesky mods, for being totally normal and proportional about a barely famous trans woman cracking wise about a Nazi's death.

To be fair season 2 never mind season 1 was in production for a long time before the election, never mind all the authoritarian moves made since. Tony Gilroy said he looked at 20th century revolutionary history. In a recent interview he did say that it rhymes with what is going on though.
