@gregpak.net big fan, both of your work and of course, my man Norrin! While I’m bummed a death event is arriving in time for my 40th birthday-month, I’m confident you’ll do him justice. Question: who do you think would be an awesome Herald? DC, Marvel or otherwise?

Day 46: Tom King’s Superman: Up in the Sky is my favorite Superman story of all time. It strips away the spectacle and gets to the heart of why he is a symbol of hope. His journey to save one girl is a testament to his unwavering belief in every life. A superb read. @tomking.bsky.social
