Upgraded my Eerie and Creepy Alex Toth collection with this handsome bookshelf volume that doesn’t smell like 50 year old newsprint.

Wake Up, Boston Brand!

These names in the Astrid show are somewhat familiar. In French, they are pronounced “Max Rebo”, “Lea Organa” and “Ludo Calrissian”.

Pretty amazing that I put more hours into Blue Prince than my multiplayer games. I loved that single player puzzle game and wanted to discover everything!

I read this issue of Daredevil last night, and the first three pages are the most “Larry Hama” of any of his 80s work. The “sarge” delivering an impossibly long-winded stereotypical death monologue through his “sucking chest wound”. I loved the story and the Klaus Jansen art/inks/colors.

Apparently it’s my twentieth anniversary in Xbox Achievements (introduced with the 360 console). Here are my most played series… I moved to the PlayStation with Assassin’s Creed IV and beyond.

A rare public outing for Rob Liefeld’s Bloodwulf!

Re-watching Copshop. It’s so good. This, Blue Ruin, and the first John Wick are modern American action noir movies that jump right in without needing to explain shit. I say American, because there are tons of Asian action films that do the same.

So far I’m not too drawn in by the drama of The Brutalist, but the architecture and gimbal shots have my complete attention.

"Friends" is a beloved American sitcom that aired from 1994 to 2004, following six young adults—Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe—living in New York City. The show explores their friendships, romances, careers, and personal growth over ten seasons.

Excited to give this one a spin - Psychocandy 40th Anniversary Deluxe by The Jesus and Mary Chain (Third Man Records)

My heart goes out to those on the frontline in the war-ravaged aisles of Powell’s Books.

I love that Kirk Hammett is such a geek that he spent a good portion of his Metallica money on horror comics and Frank Frazetta paintings.

Aladdin Stein!

At a glance, I thought this was the Doolittle album cover by Pixies.

Great speech from Chicago Gov. Pritzker. I admit that I started ghost hearing the intro to The Blues Brothers ”Everybody Needs Somebody To Love” in my head over this, and it only enhanced the power of the whole message.

I ran into recommendations for Immortal Hulk on YouTube and picked it up. It’s a fun horror take on The Hulk that I am enjoying. I don’t follow Ewing and Bennett, but I just realized Ewing wrote Zombo, one of my fav 2000 AD characters, and Bennett was the 90s artist half of Moore’s Supreme.

I did not know Earl Hickey had been holding a high level position at the FBI.

There is so much creativity and intrigue clearly conveyed through character design in this one panel introduction to the Cabal. What’s up with the head in a box? Dapper giant or ancient giant - how about both? From the first issue of The Sixth Gun: Battle For The Six by Cullen Bunn and Brian Hurtt.

A really fantastic month in comic books. All of these were great - I think Garth Ennis and Becky Cloonan’s “The War” just might be my favorite Ennis story and I am glad it got a second chance outside its original anthology release.

October 24th.

I did not realize Tom Lehrer was still alive. One of my grandfather’s favorites, his songs were much appreciated by my younger self. “Once the rockets go up, who cares where they come down?, says Werner Von Braun” RIP

Walked by two twelve year old boys, one saying to the other, “well let me see, now basically, we need to start with a deep dive into the foundations of Crypto.” We’re doomed.

Cap isn’t at his happiest this 4th of July.

The BB (Bridge Baby) is now more of a BT (Bridge Toddler) in Death Stranding 2. I don’t look forward to changing its BD when it is filled with stinky BP. #DeathStranding2

I just had a very Mentos commercial interaction with an umbrella that turned inside out and some onlooking construction workers.

I like a lot of the music in The Bear, but Shellac (closing track episode 5) and Dillinger Four (on a flyer in Carmine’s room) are my personal soundtrack. #TheBear #TheBearFX #TheBearSeason4

Two long sought after comics added to my collection this week. Indexing the collection in CLZ was supposed to lead to downsizing, not filling holes!

Highs of 97 or 99 every day this week. I am hoping I don’t have any vinyl preorders shipping that I forgot about.

The bad guys from the 80s M.A.S.K. cartoon were called V.E.N.O.M. (Vicious Evil Network Of Mayhem), which sounds like something that would be written on Truth Social today.

In 1988, IBM tried to seize the whole PC market back and make it proprietary again. Everyone KNEW you couldn't win against IBM. Compaq, and founding CEO Rod Canion, decided to try. Read my latest #history longform on the fight for the soul of the PC. And how Compaq won. every.to/the-crazy-on...

History only remembers the good things about Lex Luther’s presidency. Why don’t we talk more about his super villain pardons, mishandling of Gotham earthquake disaster relief, and conspiracy with an alien dictator to attack earth?

Five favorite black and white movies: M La Haine The Third Man Sunset Boulevard Faster Pussycat, Kill! Kill!

I just (last night) read the Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man series for the first time, and commented out loud that “Peter David wrote the HELL out of that series.” Remembering his “But I Digress” column from the 90s, he always struck me as the Roger Ebert of comics and his humor will be missed.
