Today’s Good Comic I Like: Test, by Christopher Sebela and Jen Hickman. A human test subject leaves the lab they were experimented on in search of utopia. An interesting sci-fi premise with art that suits it very well.
Helped my friend move. It’s 92 degrees outside. He owns the heaviest furniture on Earth. I’m legally dead now. Tell Natalie Portman I loved her.
While I was a little bit bored when I started it, I REALLY liked Stranger Things 3 the more I watched it. And what an ending.
Today’s Good Comic I Like: Lois Lane, by Greg Rucka and Mike Perkins. Comics’ best reporter takes on corruption and crooked politicians in a series very grounded in today’s world.
“Midsommar” was disappointing. It didn’t know what kind of film it wanted to be until about halfway through, and left a few plot threads dangling or unsatisfactorily resolved.
Feel old, nerds. I just saw a kid who was too young to recognize the Tobey Maguire Spider-Man.
Today’s Good Comic I Like: No One Left to Fight, by Aubrey Sitterson and Fico Ossio. A love letter to battle manga like Dragonball, about what the heroes do with their lives when all the battles are over.
Today’s Good Comic I Like: Superman: Up in the Sky, by Tom King and Andy Kubert. Superman goes to space to find a kidnapped girl. The writer who best handles why characters are who they are and do what they do tackles DC’s most noble character.
Gutted to hear that Mad Magazine is closing down later this year. It was always one of my goals to have print something of mine. I sent them a submission years ago and always meant to send something again. Sad to think I’ll never be able to.
Today’s Good Comic I Like: Seven Soldiers, by Grant Morrison and a variety of artists. Seven heroes star in separate but loosely connected series, all fighting the same threat. The idea was to create a team where the members never met in an interesting experiment with the medium.
