Re: Three Random Thoughts (aka Randolph Mantooth!)

1. One of them said his favorite books are Atlas Shrugged and 1984. Wow. Favorites? I’m no psychologist, but a dude who claims those as his faves while simultaneously taking an “internship” for a company that regularly takes public interest/socialist projects from cities deserves to be sat down and...

Re: What have you watched lately?

The Sheep Detectives . Just, damn, that was a good movie. As far as live action movies about talking sheep go, it's only second to Babe because Babe is one of the most perfect films ever made. Agreed. I’m just glad movies like this still get made. Imagine this movie getting pitched to the studio. T...

Re: Big score........

Another “Con” down at the River Center. This one only cost $10 to get in, but like the last big con I went to a few weeks ago, there was only 4 tables in the entire place selling actual comics. One was selling older silver age stuff for $30-40 a book. One guy had three short boxes with almost entire...

Re: Hidden Gems

It figures the one Absolute title I haven’t been keeping up with is the one that’s getting expensive. The first six issues of Ab Martian Manhunter are rising.

Absolute Batman is fucking bananas. But I got two copies of the first four issues of that one. Cha-Ching.

Re: Image Comics

I only knew it was on issue 100 because I saw it on the solicit’s list for that week(with its roughly 2...

Re: RIP Star Wars comics

Ha. Oh man. Those last three “ongoings”; Star Wars, Doctor Aphra:Chaos Agent, and the Legacy of Vader series starring Kylo Ren are on my upcoming ‘to read’ list and I’ll be caught up on SW. (I technically need to “read” the Mandalorian, Ashoka, and Obi-Wan adaptations also, but having watched the sh...

Re: Image Comics

man, in my mind's eye Youngblood just looks like AI slop that was trained exclusively on X-Men and X-Force comics before AI was even a thing. and to get to just #100 in 2026... just for reference, i checked out Savage Dragon and it's on issue #280, Spawn is on #377. that's hilarious.

Re: LEGO!

Bricklink Series 11 final five have been announced. The Lunar Cargo Train is a definite purchase. Classic Space! The Elven Citadel looks like a nice companion to the LOTR Rivendell set. Will probably get that also. I can skip the Castle. It looks nice, but there’s a castle in every wave. The flower ...
