My #TopShelfFriday pick is one of my favorite Batman stories and a case where the sequel is almost as good as the original. Beautiful art by the sorely missed Tim Sale.

I'm remembering Len Wein on his birthday. His Green Lantern run was excellent and his Blue Beetle run is top of the shelf worthy. RIP sir.

I will try to be open minded and not too picky when I watch it and hope we get a good show. I'm just not a fan of King's writing. I didn't care for any of his past comics work and I hope he doesn't write too many of the episodes himself.

Timeline cleanser. Len Wein writes. Paris Cullen pencils. Blue Beetle #5 1986

I'm so excited to see Batman Gotham By Gaslight is coming back with A League For Justice. I'm looking forward to seeing how a Steampunk League works in the 1890's

My doctor ordered me to bed rest for the next week until my appointment. Little nervous, a little scared while I wait. But I am going to get so much reading done.

Afternoon friends. Sorry I wasn't on earlier is because I had to go get my cat scanned. I'll let everyone know what they find.

Just noticed I don't have Superman Returns on DVD. I admit the writers could have worked a little harder. I still have a soft spot for Brandon Routh because he was excellent in the role. Too bad he had to wait so long to play Superman one more time in an Arrowverse show.

I listen to soundtrack scores from movies and TV shows I love. I barely turn on the television anymore.

I really enjoyed the first issue of #Supergirl, written and beautiful drawn by @mooncalfe1.bsky.social I hope this book sticks around for a good long time.

Supergirl #2 review for next week is filed. Everyone needs to be buying @mooncalfe1.bsky.social’s Supergirl comic. It’s the best series I’ve read for Kara in years. I’m sure my old friend @dranj70.bsky.social agrees. 💕

My #TopShelfFriday pick is The Question #1 written by one of comic's best; Dennis O'Neil and some dynamite art by Denys Cowan. 36 issues of near perfect story telling.

Wow, @spacekicker.bsky.social has turned Aquaman into complete bad ass. I am loving this run.

Just as I start to really like Lois Lane with super powers, they get taken away from her. Most likely reason why they are doing this is because Metropolis already has a big family of supers flying around. Do we really need more?

I also wanted to mention how much I liked the last two hardcovers featuring Geoff Johns doing what he does best. I read these two books and still have a lot of comics on the tbr pile. #JSA I hope we get to see how Helena Wayne fits in with her new home in the 31st century

It's been such a glorious Friday night. My books arrived today so I've been spending time in Gotham City, Metropolis and other fun and exciting places courtesy of the fine folks at DC.

Listening to this excellent album while I read and do a bit of straightening around. Putting washing dishes off as long possible. Wish I had a bit of the speed force to finish them in seconds. www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4__...

I like her new costume. Very reminiscent of her look back in the 80's. All she needs is the head band. #Supergirl

Good afternoon, friends. I slept way too late and I think it's because this new medicine kicked me right in the caboose.
