Lex truly is the most diabolical of men.
A panel from Action Comics #750. On the right is a close up of Lex Luthor, who has his hand on Jimmy Olsen’s shoulder. Lex says to Jimmy “Do? Why, James, I want you to write!” Jimmy replies “write what?” Lex answers with “Content, my boy!”

@geekcritique.org o god rumble
A screenshot of the ending to a round of Sonic Rumble. AfroShaq is the winner. But the reason I'm posting the screenshot is because I (David The Lurker) recognized Josh (The Geek Critique) in the round of Sonic Rumble. Oh god it's a game involving Sonic the Hedgehog and overpriced character skins.

Find a page like this. A house ad, white on the bottom third. There’s a little sticker there! You peel it off to get the code. Use it on Marvel Unlimited.

The copy on the ad reads as if the tracks are fresh. “Yes, a bear has been through here (on the back of a small bird).” And it’s not too dissimilar to actual bird tracks in the sand. I think it’s the lighting on the ad that gives it a “Jurassic Park” feel even though it’s not meant to be a fossil

Not sure if you've already caught it, but the page you posted is missing one of Knuckles' speech bubbles from the original book. The speech that is covering Mount Fate, "They've disappeared...and I've no idea where to find them!"
The first page of "Sonic's Friendly Nemesis Knuckles A Sense of History Part One."

Panel One - Knuckles looks upon Mount Fate.
Knuckles: Typical. That "Archimedes" character is playing "hide and seek" with the Chaotix...and an even nastier set of "mind-games" with me! They've disappeared...and I've no idea where to find them!

Panel Two. Knuckles lifts his fist.
Knuckles: What was it he said -- "Which is more important? Your friends...or the threat to the Floating Island?"

Panel three. A close up of Knuckles face.
Knuckles: Good question. Wish I had a few easy...

@billcorbett.bsky.social Thought you might like to know. Opened Wikipedia, when suddenly, today's featured article make me ask: "Ma, my nuts?"
A screengrab from the front page of the English version of Wikipedia. It is of the featured article section, which is focusing on the film Overdrawn at the Memory Bank. Included is an image of Linda Griffiths, who costarred in the film. The text in the image is as follows: 
From today's featured article: Overdrawn at the Memory Bank is a 1984 science-fiction television film starring Raul Julia and Linda Griffiths (pictured). Based on a 1976 short story by John Varley from the Eight Worlds series, the film takes place in a dystopian future where an employee at a conglomerate, played by Julia, gets trapped inside the company's computer, where he is monitored and later abetted by a character played by Griffiths as he affects the real world. It was co-produced by Canada's RSL Films in Toronto and the New York television station WNET. Because of its limited budget, the motion picture was shot on videotape instead of film and was pre-sold to small American cable companies. It premiered on CBC Television in 1984 and was broadcast on American Playhouse in 1985. The film had a mixed reception from critics. Overdrawn at the Memory Bank was featured in the eighth-season finale of the comedy television series Mystery Science Theater 3000 in 1997. (Full article...)

For those interested, here is what I believe to be the original source of that rumor. Dated Feb 27 1995, seven months before the dated cover letter on the legal draft that was scanned. Clearly this was going on for some time. My guess is things were settled behind closed doors before possible filing

Paula's reply:

Oh, brilliant move. We get "Dumb and Dumber", which might if anything
be stupider than the movie, and more episodes of the brain-numbing
"Free Willy", but we lose our weekends on Mobius...

I'm not entirely surprised, though. Several dealers have told me
that Sega was not at all happy with DIC's offering of Sonic cels
for sale, and hit them with a full cease-and-desist order, stating
they'd never authorized DIC to do any such thing with images of their
copyrighted characters. I doubt relations were any too amicable in
that climate.

All the same, it's a darn shame...
