The Maniaks are a mod band whose songs are all ridiculous parodies and who have powers and abilities but mostly just run away from mobsters with food nicknames and I would subscribe to their Bandcamp and buy a t-shirt right now.

I think those count for sure. I'd read lesser-known as "not a U.S. box office hit or cult classic that has a big enough following for other folks to have heard of it."

"Madam Onassis ain't got nothing on you" from "You Wear It Well." Southeast U.S. native and feels like I grew up knowing this one.

Marvel has a chance to woo me back onto some books this NCBD. Looking forward to Doom and, though I've never been a Cable fan, thought they nailed it in issue 1. @jason-aaron.bsky.social always gets a look, and the Big 3 Absolute titles have been consistently fantastic. #wereadscomics
