Things are going badly enough in reality at the moment that my Feast for Crows reread qualifies as escapist fantasy.

Jonathan Glazer basically said, we're Jews who made a movie about the Holocaust, and Jews who use their Jewish identity or invoke the Holocaust to justify what's happening in Gaza do not speak for us. And he continues to be demonized and vilified for it. www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...

During the Krakoa X-Men comics, Sabretooth went from breaking out to lead a revolutionary anti-incarceration movement to collecting a lobotomized multiversal army of himself to give Wolverine another bad birthday in what is essentially the longest Itchy & Scratchy gag ever.

My job as a high school English teacher often feels dystopian, but reviewing new curriculum that implements AI to generate prompts and assessments feels like Virgil introducing me to some new tier of Hell.

America did a lot of terrible stuff to Dr. King, like jailing and abusing him and trying to get him to kill himself and killing him, but probably nothing so obscene as reinventing him in popular memory as some milquetoast whose primary concern was not hurting white peopleโ€™s feelings.

Watching a Netflix doc on dietary stuff, & as I am prone to remind every so often: You do not need to eat meat to get sufficient protein in your diet. As I heard it put once: "Where do you think the animals we eat get it from? Plants!" I put on 15lbs of muscle last year with zero meat in my diet.

And thereโ€™s a great saga to be told about the ultimate battle being between existence and oblivion, rather than good and evil, but thatโ€™s not what COIE does. Hickmanโ€™s Avengers is much more attuned to that particular wavelength - stealing it for another Secret Wars.

We canโ€™t lose track that Doctor Doom essentially murders god and assumes his throne in the seriesโ€™ climax, and the monumental nature of that conflict is played entirely straight. Heโ€™s a much more compelling omnipotent villain than the goofy blue & yellow robot.

Fall of the House of X #1 certainly wasnโ€™t the worst superhero comic I read this week. But given that itโ€™s title demands a comparison to HoX/PoX, it is far and away the most disappointing. The future of X-Men comics is set to be composed of tropes decades past their use-by date and worse politics.

Itโ€™s like recutting Lost to run in chronological order, ignoring that the narrative and thematics rely upon temporal juxtaposition, for a new DVD release - making a worse version of the thing just so you can sell it again.

Morehouse College transferred every penny of debt they held in collections to the Debt Collective, amounting to $10M for 2800 students. Instead of collecting on it, we canceled it all completely.

This is a no strings attached gift.

Picked out three favorite comics from 2023 to hop on Comic Book Nation this morning. Limited myself to serialized publications to keep it simple: 1. 20th Century Men 2. Damn Them All 3. Rare Flavours Considering there were a dozen runners up, itโ€™s been a self-evidently good year for comics.
