That new Real Love mix is god awful. Why does John sound like he's been hit with 2010s auto tune? Why did they remove a bunch of George's guitar licks? How the fuck did this get approved?

My only dissapointment w/ regards to the pirate JLI is that we didn't get to see pirate J'onn and merchant Max.

Thanks to a pretty sweet deal on eBay, I managed to pick up over half of George Harrison's solo catalogue (not counting live and experimental albums) in one fell swoop. Some very underrated Harrisongs in this collection! I'll always sing the praises of his self-titled.

save me, lady JLI pirates, save me...

i love this brush so much its been so fun to mess with

In the age of AI slop, TheRealJims is out here throwing money at artists so he can tell the world which Pokémon he thinks Lenny would have... that's why he's my GOAT.

Cheetah i have grown fond of you.

that one Sonic pose.

"A bird of paradise, the sunrise in her eyes, God only knows such a sweet surprise." 💚💙 Bea & Sigrid in flight - a BeaSig comm by the very talented @/Midnitevu1turez over on twitter!

Jacinthe and Lebanne's dynamic is absolutely insane... why does this Pokémon game have kinky toxic forcefem yuri? 😭

Went to a retro arcade and wound up neglecting the vintage arcade machines to instead spend most of my visit parked in front of a CRT, playing Panzer Dragoon. That game kicks ass, even if I'm quite terrible at it.

As a massive comic book fan *and* a massive Beatles fan, I can't believe I'm only just now finding out that Jack Kirby gifted a drawing to Paul and Linda McCartney. Wings by the King.

I was watching The Lost Boys, like I do every Halloween, and something occurred to me... the head vampire is a middle-aged businessman named Max who uses amiable charm to hide his sinister intentions... There's a hell of a JLI-themed Elseworlds pitch to be had there.

jli,jla / Infinite crisis / Post crisis Max. I like my little Killg%re max au just cause i am throwing him into a white man torment nexus.

I think it's safe to say Aphrodite ships Diana and Barbara. #wonderwoman #cheetah

I was bitching about villain Max with a mutual over on tumblr, and it really is fucking nuts that you're more likely to see a nuanced, sympathetic portrayal of Lex Luthor in a modern comic than you are a portrayal of Max that paints him as anything other than irredeemably evil.

People who only like the Sixth Doctor in his more cuddly Big Finish incarnation are weak, and simply can't handle a bipolar princess 😤

A J'onnMax commission from the fantastic @fraubbles.bsky.social! Finally freed from Kilg%re's 'reprogramming', Max is a shell of his former self. Broken down both physically and mentally, J'onn's steady presence offers a rare mercy he feels wholly undeserving of.

Finally catching up on the new Futurama season, and I can't believe they casually revealed that Leela's bisexual by way of a background gag.

JLU SPOILERS /// It's genuinely very nice to get a GuyTora moment that actually treats their past relationship with *weight* instead of just brushing it off as a joke, but also, did Guy just suggest that Bea have a threesome with he and Tora? 😭

That Nightwing webtoon may be ass (and not in the way the creators intended), but at least she's serving cunt! 💚

Had a lot of downtime in work today, so I did a bit of light reading. And by 'light reading' I mean I got through the entire book in like and hour and half because I was so enthralled. Shearman really is on a whole other level.

The Z-A Royale and Rogue Megas can wait. I'm chilling with my boy Bois.

The thing about Sonic and Mighty is that they're both nomads at heart, so I can absolutely imagine them as old men, travelling the world together after everyone else has settled down.

thinking about archie sonighty on this fine monday evening...

Max was Kilg%re's discord kitten, send tweet

The side missions in Legends ZA have made me feel attached to Pokémon species I would've never given a second thought to before because of how charming the interactions with them are.

Been playing Legends ZA - fun game! Finally, I can live out my fantasy of raising pokémon while dressed like a '90s bowling alley carpet.

#Sonictober2025 Day 2! Theme: Dance. Sonic and Sally might not always be on the same page during missions, but when it comes to busting a move, their synergy can’t be beat! If only he was always this good at following her lead… Art by @drawloverlala.bsky.social

After reading New Gods #11, I was left feeling frustrated with the fact that we were so close to something genuinely interesting w/ regards to Max not wanting to be a pawn to higher beings (something that goes all the way back to him breaking free of Kilg%re's control in JLI #12), but it ultimately-

You can tell the one on the right is the REAL Max because of all the body hair

It's very funny to me that Max thinks some half-remembered pop-buddhist platitudes he picked up from a brief college fling will impress his ancient philosopher boyfriend.

Was thinking about awkward AOS Sarek and Kirk shuttle rides and can't believe I never posted my awkward TOS Sarek and Kirk brunch art here

That Xbox One E3 presentation really will go down as one of the single most consequential and disastrous moments in gaming history.

Girl why you so gnarp gnarp 👽 #sonicthehedgehog #amyrose

One thing that goes a long way in explaining J'onn and Max's unlikely closeness is that Max can see past J'onn's stoic mask in a way not many others can. It makes sense - he's a career schmoozer, of course he's great at reading people.

The endless Japanese Sonic vs Western Sonic fan wars are pointless when both iterations of the franchise agree on the post important thing - the coolest character in Sonic's friend group should also wear a cowboy hat.

The circumstances surrounding Archie Sonic's sudden cancellation will always sting, but if nothing else, I'm at least glad that Sonic Universe #95 managed to leak, because it's a delight. Sonic and Antoine's friendship is both criminally underrated and criminally underexplored.

Could I put on my thinking cap and say that Cena/Styles was a fanservice-laden spotfest with zero connective tissue? Sure. But I was so thoroughly sports entertained that I don't even care. If there's any time for self-indulgent fun, it's the John Cena retirement tour.

I had a dream last night where they released a Looney Tunes screwball romantic comedy starring Bugs and Daffy and woke up immensely disappointed that it wasn't real.

On the one hand, McFarlane's ratio of male figures-to-female figures continues to be whack (we somehow haven't even gotten a Black Canary figure yet). But on the other hand, TORA, MY GOOD FRIEND TORA! 💙 I wish we we were getting a Bea *not* made entirely of translucent plastic to match, but oh well.

i love when max is drawn with that scary little smile of his </3

Why do so many people want a character who is written as a misogynist to secretly be Martian Manhunter?

Some Archie Sonic pages popped up over on my twitter tl, which reminded me of how much I miss Archie Sonic. Don't get me wrong, I very much enjoy IDW for what it is, but I miss the distinctive, heightened, soap-operatic take on the Sonic universe that Archie provided.

This happened last night and I hadn't heard about it until this post, so went to the BBC News homepage. You have to go all the way down the page, below recipes for 30 minute meals, and you find it as a text link in 'politics'.
