    Figura Obscura

    While we're doing mythology-inspired fiction recommendations, I'll shout out Madeline Miller's Circe, The Song of Achilles, and Galatea.

    I'm sure there's at least one more Gamerverse Wolverine re-use coming. I don't want to see this Wolverine body used for a comic figure. The Juggernaut wave Wolverine body is almost a decade old, too. It's past time for them to start on a new Wolverine body.

    I prefer a weekly release model, but long seasons are bad, and I'll die on that hill. There's no 24-episode season that wouldn't be better as 10. With 10 episodes, only the best material makes it to the audience. It's the same with overly long books. Get a fucking editor.

    I wanted to see Keeper because Tatiana Maslany is one of my ride or dies. She has acting chops and charisma. I can't understand why she doesn't get more roles. That said, I'm over Osgood Perkins. His movies look good, but outside of Longlegs, they're all bad. Even Longlegs is severely flawed...

    Figura Obscura

    Good point about 4H staying true to the original mythos. I'm indifferent about Medusa as long as she gets a Caravaggio-inspired head:

    I'm decidedly not a DC guy. Thank you all for introducing me to G'nort, who is now one of my three favorite DC characters.

    If Marvel Cosmic Invasion is the thing that gets us a decent Beta Ray Bill and Phyla-Vell, so be it. I have a love/hate relationship with Overwatch. Mostly hate now. I put about 500 hours into it and had less fun with every passing second. Like most competitive games, the casuals bounced within...

    I think it's better on Cyclops and Wolverine because of the trunks. I'm with you on the dynamic poses. I'm keeping my pre-order in hopes that these articulate well. If they do, I won't ever see the hideous crotch pieces.

    I saw The Fifth Element for the first time this year. It's good if you can ignore the Luc Besson of it all. Glad I'm not too late for the James Cameron discussion. Aliens is good. Titanic is flawed, but it succeeds in what it sets out to do. Terminator and Terminator 2 are masterpieces. Before...

    That tattoo character is gnarly. Your players do a good job of leaning into the setting.

    Up for pre-order: If it didn't have a cloth costume in between the base body and the armor, I'd be in.

    I watched the first episode of Pluribus. It was very good.

    I'm pretty sure it means "stop abducting/recruiting kids from Mar-a-Lago."

    S.H. Figuarts Marvel Figures

    I'm relieved I don't like it. Getting me to buy a figure in the tiger-stripe costume is always an uphill battle. If they repainted it in the brown costume, I'd almost definitely buy it. I'm sure it'll have subtle shading in person, but it looks flat in the promo photo. The scant arm hair isn't...

    In an interview, Trump said Ivanka made him promise that he wouldn't date girls younger than her. She was 17 at the time. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/donald-trump-ivanka-trump-dating-promise_n_57ee98cbe4b024a52d2ead02

    Funko nearing bankruptcy

    Venture capital is the specter looming over this whole Funko situation. I dunno. The richest people in the world fried their brains on Twitter and Rich Guy Group Chats. Hell, the White House just put out a press release explaining that the economy is popping off because DoorDash's local...

    Comic Book Talk

    This is the exact run I had in mind when I wrote that. I generally like Chip's work. Spider-Man: Life Story rules. I'm interested in where he's going thematically, but I find it an unpleasant read. He's sullying my superhero story with W's war in the Middle East. The nice thing about Cap is...

    I think I quit The Witcher after season two. One of the most valuable skills I've gained over the last few years is the ability to let go. I used to feel some amount of guilt if I didn't finish the thing. Now I leave so many things (shows, in particular) in my wake that I can't remember them...

    The Complaint Thread

    With the exception of assigned reading—which I rarely bothered to do—I think homework should be outlawed. I can't begin to guess at the number of evenings I wasted or social gatherings I skipped to do my homework. My AP classes would heap on two or three hours a night. As an extreme introvert...

    @DarthDre758 The lead singer is a lot. Perhaps a little too transparent about his life/struggles on stage.

    I hate Morrison's Batman, but their All-Star Superman, New X-Men, JLA, and especially Animal Man? Hell yeah.
