Jul. 3rd, 2025 10:27 amthanekos posting in scans_dailyThere's the effects of that previous issue's well-teased end.
There's Thor after the fact as was solicited -
" .. [meeting] the Serpent who wore his own face and held his own hammer. "
( It's a little more bitter than their meeting in #17. )

In which I read therefore I am
Jul. 2nd, 2025 04:17 pmspiralsheep- To Read shelves 1 July 2025 count is 69 (down from 90 on 1 Jan), so hypothetically less than six months of reading.
- Reading: 74 books to 2 July 2025.
72. Fashionable 2025 numerical typo 3, the second from Inventing the Renaissance, which is a good ratio considering the quantity of words and dates in this doorstop, "Marcellus II (1501-5)", nope, but the idea of a Boss Baby Ghost Pope in 1555 is amusing.
00. My third DNF of 2025, on short story 4 of 14.
73. Thirsty Mermaids, by Kat Leyh, 2021, comics (adult), 4.5/5
In search of booze, a found-family pod of three merfolk take their fun and friendship to the human seaside, or rather shoreside, where they discover dreadful human inventions such as "capitalism" and "jobs". They also discover they can't just go back to being mermaids. This story is very much about the diverse friends they make along the way, lol. Warning: yes, Kat Leyh who helped create Lumberjanes but this is a grown-up comic.
- To Read [ALLCAPS in original typography]: y'all will be pleased to know I've acquired a 1959 girls' own comics annual with stories titled "The GAY ADVENTURERS and the Roman Curios" and "Friends of The GAY HIGHWAYMAN", and a 1960 annual featuring "Baffled by Those Two Boy Campers".

X-Men #19
Jul. 2nd, 2025 08:51 amicon_uk posting in scans_dailySo I am, I hope, a big enough person to admit that I was wrong.
As might have been obvious, I have been concerned at seeing Cypher, one of my favourite characters ever, who was defined by the low key nature of his powers, get chosen to be the Heir of Apocalypse.
But if Jed Mackay and Netho Diaz X-Men #19 is any indication of where we're going though, I'm not just interested, I'm invested...
( Yes, but get to the important stuff!! )
