@archiecomics.bsky.social today announced JUGHEAD: PIEMAGEDDON, reteaming @tomking.bsky.social & @danparent.bsky.social after 2024's ARCHIE: THE DECISION. Read @danielpgrote.bsky.social & @annapeppard.bsky.social's review of that now-classic comic comicsxf.com/2024/08/28/a...

Monday on an All-New #BattleoftheAtom we’re celebrating my real-life wedding to my one and only @annapeppard.bsky.social with a Wedding Special! Since we’ve already covered Jean & Scott, tune in to see which three couples tie the knot!

A cheap excuse to post one of my favorite things I’ve written for this site.

I love this cover. This should be the A. Just the direction everyone is looking in and the way they’re posed. I almost want a Renew Your Vows-style book in this universe, sight unseen.

What’s Captain America doing in the teacher’s lounge, other than trying to sell a few more comics? Find out in X-Men United #2.

So a few weeks ago I was fairly brutal in my review of X-Men United #1, while my colleague @notquitehydepark.bsky.social was much more optimistic. Issue #2 has arrived and it seems our opinions have aligned.

As Storm: Earth's Mightiest Mutant keeps throwing cosmic spaghetti at the walls, @saintjudejones.bsky.social sounds off on what heretofore has been a key missing ingredient: Storm's voice.

Free idea: Alpha Flight but they’re all Venoms. Marvel is saved.

One of the best things Krakoa did was make Captain America politely horny for Emma Frost.

We’ve got a jam packed double review for you this week. What the heck is happening in UXM 26? Plus we revisit the Regulators!

At least one of the two Uncanny issues out this week answers one of the most important questions of all. Nightcrawler: boxers or briefs? Me and @adamreck.bsky.social dig into that and more!

How famous is Dazzler supposed to be? Is it weird or logical how many Chuck Austen threads Chris picks up? Should M-Day have been a mystery? We explore these topics and more!

Oh. My. God, Brucey, look at her ‘bot. It’s just so … big.

“I know writers who use subtext,” etc., etc. In all seriousness, it’s not often we talk to a team after a first arc is out in full, so it was nice to dive deep with Frank and Morgan about TAI.

I listen to video game music while I work, and there’s been an infusion of AI slop remixes (Mega Man X but Arabian Knights, etc.) that I’ve had to avoid, so it’s nice to see something Pure and Good. PICK IT UP PICK IT UP PICK IT UP!!!

Punch a boy wizard in the face and check this one out!

Happy Easter! Hey, you know who else had a J name who died and then was risen? (Jean Grey thread)

Usually during Holy Week I try to find the time to read the exceptional comic JUDAS by Jeff Loveness and Jakub Rebelka. For my money, the best work of religious storytelling of the last ten years at least.

Christ is born, Christ is risen … www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGUN...

This (fake) game walked so the Xbox Burger King games could run.

Having seen Anaconda (2025), I now understand there are only two kinds of Jack Black movies: 1) Jungle movie about making movies 2) Jungle movie trapped in video game world Oh, and Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny Three kinds of Jack Black movies!

Just a little teaser photo. As a treat.
