Catching up on the current arc of Swan Boy and this kind of banter is what I dream of having in a relationship.

Do my League of Comic Geeks stats serve as adequate proof of beating the challenge?

I've been reading through the original Lee/Kirby Fantastic Four and having a blast. I can see why this is the magazine that put Marvel Comics on the map. Say what you want about Stan Lee, but one thing the man's work never lacked was personality. This is male friendship in its purest form.

A panel from 1963's Fantastic Four #19:

The Thing lifts Mr. Fantastic off the ground in joy after getting exciting news, saying "Reed, you ol' dictionary-readin' double-talkin' rubber-boned egghead! What are we standin' around jawin' for!? Let's go!!"

Mr. Fantastic responds "Ben, you hot-tempered, loudmouthed, beetle-brained gargoyle... That's what I was WAITING for you to say!!"

I've gotten to the point where I'm so used to balding that older pictures of me with a full head of hair are strange and unfamiliar to me. Like who is this fucking freak of nature, honestly.

I’m today’s New York Times flashback history quiz. Resist, baby!

Last night of Chanukah is bittersweet. A full menorah with all the candles lit is very satisfying, but knowing it’s the end of the holiday brings down my mood. Still, I like how the ending this year lined up with the New Year. I feel really ready to move into whatever comes next.

Thing worth celebrating: Earlier today I was at the coffee shop and secured their last croissant of the year. Bye-bye, 2024.

Is this goin' around now? Most of my brainspace is dedicated to opinions on DC characters. Gimme whoever you got, and don't be afraid to make 'em obscure.

Doesn’t really taste like an Oreo at all. Weird alternative to a classic peppermint candy cane. Not bad just as a piece of candy though. Think I would enjoy them more as just a normal hard candy drop kind of thing.

Ordinarily I’d never buy these but @hbomberguy.bsky.social got me curious with his new Patreon video so let’s give it a whirl!

#48: Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories This one started as Larxene being confused by the concept of food, but then I decided to see what other portraits were available and Axel's enthusiasm was too good to pass up on.

Captain Max @captainmax.bsky.social · 24/11/2024

Anyway, I got uncomfortably good at making sexy cat men, but some folks like that, so enjoy. This was 6 hours of work for 5 minutes of in-game material, but it got the most laughter I've ever gotten from my players, so it was totally worth it. I just love finding new ways to enjoy DMing. (3/3)

Mr. Sambemper: Tobrus (26, Loxodon): Gramen’s favorite pratfighter has the perfect mix of power and finesse. This hunk is used to playing others like a fiddle, and you won’t believe what he can do with that trunk.

(Note: Pratfighting is a special performance combat sport in my homebrew setting that audiences gamble on)

Mr. Honkober: Jat Grassstrength (40, Centaur): A seasoned officer in the Gramen military, Lieutenant Grassstrength has over 20 years of excellent service under his belt. Not that he wears a belt. Or pants. But he always knows how to take charge in any situation.

Mr. Leventer: Pemer Bronzepelt (32, Leonin): A true hunk among hunks, Pemer was born a sorcerer, but gave up the practice of magic, developing a powerful body thanks to ATPP Syndrome. Now he uses his incredible strength to build things, meaning if you don’t think your bed is big enough for him, he can make you one that is.

(Note: ATPP is "Arcane To Physical Potentialization", a phenomena in my homebrew setting where magical beings who forgo their magical talents long enough have the magic in their body transformed into physical power, usually increasing their size)

Mr. Sifemker: Kyros Boldfront (29, Leonin): The holiest of hunks, this priest of Soulmane believes in the edicts of spreading the love. Always happy to preach the gospel to anyone who will listen, a night spent with him is truly a religious experience.

Captain Max @captainmax.bsky.social · 24/11/2024

For some context, this a calendar from a country in my homebrew setting primarily populated by animalistic species: Leonin, Loxodon, Tabaxis, and Centaurs (all zebra based to keep to African animals). Though others are there too. Also, the month names are silly versions of real-world months. (2/3)

Mr. Meel: Yinro Fallsmile (138, Firbolg): An associate professor at Trunk University, this hunk has come all the way from Redroot Thicket to impart druidic knowledge to Gramen’s brightest young wizards in training. The professor is just as eager to study as he is to instruct, and will put anything you’re willing to teach him into practice.

Mr. Choomb: Xerin Emberreach (25, Leonin): The sculptor-in-residence of the emperor’s palace spends all day working away at something firm to create lasting beauty. This hunk’s magic fingers are just as good at working on tired muscles as they are on marble. And his hot stone massages are said to have a very happy ending.

Mr. Shuwy: Hearty Cake (28, Sand Cat Tabaxi): A farmhand on the Loftian crops, this hunk may have a few extra pounds, but that just means there’s more of him to love. He wakes up early in the morning to work the fields, but makes sure to get plenty of catnaps throughout the day, so he always has plenty of energy to go all night.

Mr. Hoggust: Malas Javenath (30, Triton): This hunk has come from all the way under the seas to serve as the personal guard of Prideport’s Mayor. Between his important job and his mysterious past, he’s got a lot of practice keeping quiet, and anything that happens between the two of you will stay your salty little secret.

The other day I got inspired to make a sexy hunks calendar for my D&D campaign. I spent more time designing the hunks in Heroforge than running the session they were in, but my players loved it. I figured I'd share 'em here too. Tawdry descriptions in the alt text. (1/3)

Mr. Jamabary: Hot as Fire (26, Serval Tabaxi): This hunk proves that great things come in small packages. A monster hunter of the plains, Hot as Fire is looking for that special someone to bring home his quarry to. Maybe if you’re lucky, he’ll show you how he uses his spear.

Mr. Febaroon: Piktes Grandbrow (33, Leonin): The great baritone of the Vannadine Opera has a bod just as strong as his legendary voice. A hunk of culture, Piktes is also a seasoned gourmet, with vast culinary knowledge and a willingness to eat anything. And we do mean anything.

Mr. Mirge: Vril Ridgeride (22, Centaur): This hunky young stallion is set to be the herd leader of this year’s Greatest Gallop, making him the youngest centaur to lead the runners in the history of the event. But don’t let that intimidate you. Vril’s willing to take things at whatever speed you want.

(Note: The Greatest Gallop is a massive group marathon run by centaurs)

Mr. Eggril: Bontomov (20, Loxodon): This young go-getter is the babyfaced new goalie of the Spade Island Buccaneers. This hunk is known by thaw-brawl fans for two things; His gentle and polite manner out of the pit, and his ability to totally cover the goal. Maybe if you’re as polite as he is, he’ll cover you too.

(Note: Thaw-brawl is a fantasy version of hockey I created for my homebrew setting)

Post a character you like and tag others to do the same. DC Comics' Deadman is a ghost acrobat who has to possess people to do heroics. I love him 'cuz he's got a real beleaguered everyman vibe and his stories are about the value of life. @alexweitzman.bsky.social @terravanceryoh.bsky.social

Someone asked me about a trip to Hawaii I was on 6 years ago and I was saying how good the food was, but couldn't actually remember a lot of what I had, so I googled "Hawaiian dishes" to refresh my memory and Ah yes, the most complex dish to prepare: A pineapple.

And finally, the reason I revived this thing, I just made #47: Crazy Cross. These are all very dumb. I don't think all of them have aged well, but I do think some of them are very good jokes. At the very least, they're a showcase of my particular sense of humor, which is why I save them.

I can’t imagine that the center of the Venn Diagram between men who’d ever consider getting Botox and men mired in toxic masculinity enough to require this kind of ad is large enough for it to be effective.
