Happy to report my 2026 geeky resolution of "read more comic books & play less video games" is going well. Happy to see the resolutions of my fellow Comics XF writers as well.

Before sitting down to watch the new Muppet Show, I had to tell my disappointed five year old no, Scrooge won't be in this one, so I'm either doing everything wrong or everything right.

Anyways, check out this Muppet-tastic interview!

The extra time it took us just means we're extra committed (probably)! So check out what things our crew is hoping to accomplish in this new year.

In other news, I will probably watch Rizzo perform Blinding Lights 5 more times this week.

I love that we were so late with this. Doesn’t give me high hopes for keeping my resolutions but 🤷‍♀️

Pursuant to a conversation we have on next week’s CXF Interview Podcast, if you could remake The Big Lebowski with Muppets (Jeff Bridges remains The Dude, all else is felt), which Muppets would play which characters?
