DC has been really smart in how they’ve handled the Absolute Comics rollout. They let their characters establish themselves over 2 years before doing a big crossover. Absolute Justice League will be an event when it comes out now instead of rushing it 6 months in just to get it out there.

Whenever I get a new laptop, I gotta cover it in stickers like I’m 13 and it’s my Trapper Keeper. I gotta make sure all my core hyper fixations are well represented. Anyway, after 3 months, I’m done with this one. I think it’s fully Eric-ed out.

Bruno Redondo drawing a Justice League year one project gives me reason to live through 2027.

Ok, but what if all the X-Women take on the names of Mariah Carey albums? Storm = “Rainbow,” Jubilee = “Glitter,” Jean Grey = “Daydream,” Rogue = “Caution,” Emma Frost = “Here For It All”

The usually very wildly wrong “Your Birthday Month, Your ___” IG post was actually on point today with the “Your birthday month, your DC hero/your vampire novel.” That shit never happens.

The power company texted us yesterday saying we’d have no power from 8pm tonight to 6am Monday due to nearby construction. This means I won’t be able to sleep at all because I have a CPAP and very severe sleep apnea. Not happy right now 😡

Kenner Toys had the two greatest first wave of action figures with Star Wars in ‘78 and Super Powers in ‘84. Perfection. Anyways, it’s just me, comin’ in with the Hot Takes from almost 50 years ago.

A few more pics from The Horror Show at the Academy Museum. This is really great exhibit if you’re a scary movie nerd… if you’re in LA over the next year, make it a point to go.

On tonite’s #AHS13 watch, serial killers the Zodiac, the Night Stalker, & Jeffrey Dahmer have returned from the dead. Dahmer has learned to use Grindr, and then the serial killers attack the coven witches, and they battle like they’re the fucking X-Men. Also, Fiona Goode returns from hell. Ok sure.

All the pieces are in place for a decent MCU adaptation of Young Avengers: The Children’s Crusade. I am manifesting this into existence.

Full review coming soon, but I can tell you now that I’ve seen all of #VisionQuest, and the show is amazing. The MCU is best when it’s weird & quirky (Loki, WandaVision) and VQ is very much that vibe. Emotionally satisfying with many deep cuts to 20 years of the MCU & Marvel’s very first comic ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Alyson Tabbitha is such a great cosplayer, because her makeup skills are also next level. I’ve seen a million Lynda Carter & Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman cosplays, and even more generic comic book WW ones. But Tabbitha’s JLU animated WW somehow looks just like the cartoon. It’s all in the eyes.

I dig the first Mattel Wonder Woman figure they debuted at NYCC. She has very mid-2000s Greg Rucka era vibes.

Young Avengers, Champions- call them whatever, but Marvel has been teasing them for 5 years now. Just bite the bullet and give 'em to us already, Feige. (And don't you DARE replace Teddy/Hulkling with Skaar)

Cher posted her new album cover on IG (and she looks fuckin’ fierce af), but someone in the comments said “It’s very Confessions II,” and I can just hear her cussing into the air and hitting “BLOCK” 🤣

Happy 30th wedding anniversary to these two crazy kids, whose courtship lasted a literal 58 years. (Give or take a reality altering Crisis event or three) Lois and Clark didn’t get married on screen until 2021’s Superman & Lois, because the fuck I’m gonna count Dean Cain.

Was the VHS style packaging ‘80s horror 4K Steelbook box set a total cash grab? Yes. Do I regret getting it? No. Even if I own all these movies already, except one. Sorry, I’m a sucker for packaging. And these are among my favorite movies of all time.

The TV is recommending to me that I watch “The Little Vampire,” and let me tell ya, after seeing Jonathan Lipniki go full frontal and put whipped cream on his dick in “Primetime,” l can say the little vampire is not so little anymore.

Finished Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story today. I don’t even know how to judge Ryan Murphy stuff. Is it exploitation trash? Is it amazing? Is it amazing exploitation trash?? When Aileen Wournous dances to Bronski Beat w/ Lizzie after the grisly ax murder of her folks, I lean toward “amazing trash”

Took this “favorite Madonna album” online quiz a friend sent me, and the results are pretty accurate, but I kinda think they shouldn’t allow compilations on it, almost feels like cheating 🤷‍♂️ sorta.app/uq/mastodon....

Happy 260th birthday to Louis de Pointe du Lac, and Happy posthumous Birthday to his creator, our dearly departed Anne Rice, who would have been 85 today. He was her male fictional avatar, so she gave him her birthday. (h/t to @vampirechronicles_ on IG)

I have a word file I’ve kept with names & numbers since 2007. There’s also a folder with corresponding pics. kinda like the big folder with all the mutant names in X-Men 2 🤣 There’s instructions to delete said folder in the event of my demise 👀

Omg, I had an evangelical family who lived down the street whose kids weren’t allowed to play at my house because of my He-Man toys, because they were “Of the Devil.” I was a little shit tho, I’d just be bring my toys in the MOTU carry case and go “Can Steve come out and play” and soak in the hate 🤣

#Primetime is really fucking good. Robert Pattinson is great, but Skyler Gisondo is just as good as he is in this. Between this movie and “The Swan” documentary, I feel very unclean about the amount of morally reprehensible trash reality TV that I consumed in the 2000s.
