If you haven't done so already (I'm sure most if you have), please take the time to go vote today. You don't need me to tell you that it's very, very important. Thank you.

Another great team on Batman was Mike W. Barr and Alan Davis. They didn't last long but they did a great job.

Congrats, buddy! 5000 posts! And most of them have been coherent! ;) Seriously, that's quite a milestone. Thank you for always being here and helping make this place so much fun. Here's to the next 5000!

You're on the cusp. You're on the verge. You're on the edge. Do you dare take one more step?

Diane Ladd, Oscar and Emmy nominated actress, dies at 89: https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/article/diane-ladd-oscar--and-emmy-nominated-actress-and-mother-of-laura-dern-has-died-at-89-230345941.html

Cool! I'll get one for my Invaders shelf now that we're getting a Golden Age Human Torch.

Batman was a very serious character when he first appeared. But those were serious times. Fascism was on the rise in Europe and here at home. We were on the verge of entering a second world war as we were just coming out of a world wide depression. Organized crime was gaining a foothold in...

LOL! I know, that cracked me up. I wonder how many of those fucking idiots quit their jobs and sold their houses thinking they were actually going to heaven.

Irishman, you're ten posts away from 5000. A truly historic occasion that must be commemorated with a beer. 🍺 (Or, as we liked to call it in the Navy, any fucking excuse to have a beer.)

Orange Sunshine talks about "cherished Christians". This is a man who pays porn stars for sex while his wife is six months pregnant and has sex with underage girls on another billionaires private island. While his fucking cult says nothing and just looks down at their shoes. And Erika Kirk...

Today is Steve Ditko's birthday. He was born 100 years ago on November 2nd, 1925. You all know who Mr. Ditko is and the enormous impact he had on American comics so I'll spare you the long winded soliloquy. Instead, let's look at some pretty artwork and reflect on the man's legacy. There's...

Getting back to the "How much money does Professor X have" discussion for a moment. I just recently reread the first 325 issues of X-Men. From Lee and Kirby right up through Age of Apocalypse. That includes all the crossovers, annuals, minis and everything else. It was a lot, but it was fun...

Aw! No you're not! C'mere, Imma give you a hug! 🤗

Fair enough. I can't argue with that.

I think after Secret Wars we're going to see a Doctor Doom that's like the one created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. Along with a few other rebooted characters. But we'll see.

Ace, I love ya, bro. I really do. But I think you're wrong here. Stan Lee and Jack Kirby are World War II veterans. Jack went overseas and actually saw combat. He lost some of his toes to frostbite in the Battle of the Bulge (Arctic warfare is pure fucking hell). He shot and killed Nazi's...

You know it's funny because we used to have the "Is Batman nuts" debate a lot at comic con back in the 80's when Frank Miller wrote and drew the Dark Knight Returns. Steve Englehart, Mike W. Barr and Denny O'Neil said no, he's not. Marshall Rogers said yes, he was. Marshall's take was that...

Iron Man is what I call a "forever character". He was there when I started reading comics all those decades ago and he's still here. He was created by Stan Lee, Jack Kirby and Don Heck in 1962. There are reasons why he's had action figures, an animated series and movies and is still being...

MAGAbuster would be cool, too. We may need that sooner rather than later.

Sometimes I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
