The Odyssey is probably my favorite Chris Nolan movie. Mainly because I don't care about a lot of them, but also it's pretty good. But, I'm also right there with Wilson when she says it has some terrible lines and not much heart and we could all be watching Die Hard.

Dummy accounts are pushing articles embarrassingly incomplete even by AI-generated standards but they claim to be about "Grant Morrison's Challengers of the Unknown DC," and "Challengers of the Unknown DC" is a great, evocative title. Morrison can executive produce, though. I think I should write.

"Even the dead aren't safe" should be the tagline for an ironic zombie farce, not whatever this is.

Absolutely saddened by and for the children's teacher who yesterday told me that she doesn't believe children know or feel their gender or sexuality until their twenties because she felt like a boy and found no men or boys attractive, then with steps missing, learned she was wrong.

What's saddest is this is a thing folks truly worry about. They really believe without AI humans could not human.

I have one answer.

rod liddle tributes are taking this to unprecedented heights

Praetorius was Alan Napier's demonstration of his theory that when you see actors being mad gay in old movies that's not for the audience, that's for the sake of someone in the production who couldn't be openly queer.

When the church is good but you have to share a pew with HP Lovecraft and Charles Dickens.

Hey, folks. There's a @gofundme.com set up for artist Andy Fish, who is going through a very tough fight with two forms of cancer. He and his wife, cartoonist Veronica Fish (my Blackwood series cohorts) could use some help during this very tough time. I'm donating, hope you can. tinyurl.com/4wa86a6c

Cleaning up the first parts of Strangeways is a Prison to post, even if I do nothing with it, and disturbed how a terrorist action in New York City turning the national psyche to hateful xenophobia and re-historicizing projection written in the late 90s hits different right now.

I dunno which I want to make fun of more: John Byrne calling Quitely lazy and saying he was cheating DC with these pencils or people who think Jamie Grant didn't know exactly what he was doing with color.

"In one case, Uber petitioned a judge to force a woman to turn over details about sexual abuse she experienced as a child by a family member and family friend." "In another, a lawyer for Uber asked a woman whether she had been wearing underwear on the night in question." Absolutely vile.

“The litigation has revealed a clear pattern: Uber’s lawyers scour women’s private communications, medical records, therapy notes …They grill the women about those issues, their sex lives and their behavior on the night of the incident.” www.nytimes.com/2026/08/04/b...

Both of these covers are great because they made a bunch of grown adult men go on sites like CBR and tell us they have no idea about adult human genitalia.

Not perfection, but the Curse of Halloween does have two women smart enough to not get out of the van in scary territory except when they think they saw a naked ghost & when they go arm in arm through wood & old house to find her, the ghost (in nightie) follows behind them like it's Scooby-Doo.

Sometimes there's an extra-violent Edda/Bible/Scooby-Doo/Oz crossover about religious tolerance and hating witches. When there is, it's always weird about it.

The Tim/Jubes/Stephanie post pissed off some people on facebook, for the silliest reasons, ironically mostly queer men. I may re-drop this some places again, to bait.

Tim Drake is a bisexual Robin. Jubilee is a lesbian who one time caught feels for a guy because he dressed like her. This is also what happened to Stephanie Brown.

Yume and Washu crush on each other for over five thousand years and still aren't sure if the other is actually into them/likes them at all or if they're just doing schtick/being nice. Not all of these lessons are lessons you should learn, but I guess I also learnt to recognize it.

Some of you should read/play Juliana. It's like that and there's a ska band. ko-fi.com/travishedgec...

All props to Douglas Wheatley, Ian Edginton, Klaus Janson, Grant Morrison, Grant Morrison, Len Kaminski & others who "snuck" the queers into Comics Code approved books when the Code was pretty adamantly not her for that.

In 1993 a movie promised by now we'd have a mini tunes comeback, but do I see you all humming the Jello song today? I better. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlXP...

Coworker is insisting the phrase “small potatoes” is from the new Spiderman movie

The first story in this 1969 issue was written by a guy 61 years old, on nice straight guys versus anti-war hippies. Not only are both men complete ass, they both manage to hit her *by accident* and its on her to forgive them. Anyhow that's the average of someone in US Congress right now.

Oooh so the current Supergirl run is GOOD good. I see I see...

And, because Baader-Meinhof phenomenon, just ran across the attached claim we'll never know what Alfred reading Artemis Fowl in a scene establishing his love of crime fiction and during the introduction of Artemis-coded Damian Wayne during a story about pop art reuse could possibly mean. Just read.

"I had a bad experience with [person of some note]" has to be tempered, automatically, with maybe they had a bad day or maybe you were offensive.

It's been weeks and I'm still amused & bemused by a thread complaining this run was dour, afraid of fun, and made Superman and Krypto overly big tough hard and serious.

Opening with American Woman is such an important choice.

Oh my god I think I found the video.

Sadly, prose books are starting to develop a hangup comics have had since the 80s, of "not new-reader friendly." Perfectly standalone thing, its own thing, but naturally it doesn't exist ex nihilo and mysteries might be intentionally left at the beginning (or forever) mysterious. So, it's "NRF."
