Thanks to @retropals.bsky.social, I am now aware of Home Alone 2: Kevin's Dream, an unreleased Game Boy game which features some kind of nightmarish creature with the heads of Harry and Marv as its final boss.

And now you are too.

In the hospital for the past two days. Should be a couple more until I’m out. Too much acid in my blood. @esper.bsky.social will be covering Insert Credit this week.

Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow may be a blatant, egregious ripoff of True Grit, but here’s the thing: True Grit is pretty great

If Luffy knew what nu metal was he’d be into that too

What separates Swan Boy and Cassie from your typical “idiot boy, competent girl” comedy duo is that Swan Boy’s earnest, unpretentious, Monkey D. Luffy-style approach to life, extremely stupid as it often is, is explicitly what Cassie likes about him

Overall it was too horny for me but I am guessing that will not be a problem for you

Korrastyle

My impression of watching the first two seasons without watching the podcast is that it’s more like an animated greatest hits of the campaign than a cohesive story

Literally impossible for me to say without knowing the creative teams or any other details beyond the titles. Way too early to make a judgment call. #ngl

I don’t read Marvel #ngl

My friends got me dead to rights

What? No bless yous for Jacopo?

Subscribing to a new relatively ethical music streaming service just so I can listen to "Funky Fanfare" by Keith Mansfield over and over again

I have a job that has absolutely nothing to do with comics or video games or any kind of entertainment and it’s great

You still can

302/885: CROWDED #5 (2018)

Asexuality truly is its own spectrum, in the way that @brandtandstein.com play within sexuality creatively in a way I don’t think I really could. And yet we are no more or less ace. It feels like Tim Robinson making spot-on office comedy when he’s never had an office job.

I was here casting spells the whole year I was liveblogging D&D games at you

Very glad you liked it. This run was special to me too. We’ve still got Absolute Diana.

Birds of Prey: A Swan Song for DC’s Showcase of Sisterhood | DC What Kelly Thompson’s Birds of Prey always understood, and what it always expressed, was that at its core, Birds of Prey is a comic about sisterhood.

I actually cried reading @alexjaffe.bsky.social's article about Birds of Prey. I then spent 20 minutes trying to write an explanation for why. I can't do that in 1 post, so... something somenthing, this run started just as I began HRT, something something sisterhood, you should read Birds of Prey.

You ever read Paul Dano's Riddler comic?

I’ll buy any book The Question is in, to be sure

I like my day job :)

When I want to hold a book in my hands I go to the library

The reason I read digitally is that I do not like Consequences

I told my mom once that she may not have grandchildren but she does have grandpodcasts

301/885: GREEN LANTERN #75 (1996)

In further establishing his big new big bad, Ron Marz kills off Charlie Vicker, an obscure Green Lantern I actually care about. Charlie was an actor playing Green Lantern in a movie, only to be enlisted into the Corps himself. A cooler concept than Grayven.
