Storm, Blue Marvel, Miles Morales Spider-Man, Blade, Luke Cage, Monica Rambeau, and more at a cookout. I needed to see these Black superheroes hanging out, and Sam brought Steve Rogers, lol.

Sam Wilson: Captain America Issue 1 is my favorite comic of the week.

Ultimate Endgame Issue 2 was devastating. Tony Stark is my favorite character, and seeing him in a tumultuous place is difficult.

The Maker is even more dangerous than he was before. This is a war across history and time. Killmonger joins the fray and rocks.

The Amazing Spider-Man Issue 21 was a fine finale. Norman's time as a hero was a neat way for him to confront his past, but I'm ready for Peter Parker to return.

Miles Morales got to show off his new ability with stunning results, and the Spider-Heroes are a great team.

Absolute Superman Issue 16 might be the winner this week. It's really cooking. This version of Hawkman is menacingly cruel. This opposes Superman's innate goodness, and he doesn't back down; he hits back hard.

I'm also invested in Lois and Jimmy's Daily Planet story.

Day 5 featuring an iconic member of the Lantern Corps who just happens to be the lead in a future show. (Fun fact this was my first Lantern experience). Everyone it’s Jon Stewart.

Absolute Green Lantern Issue 11 is good, but I wish it were split more evenly with the space storyline. I want more than the few drips we're getting.

I enjoy Jo Mullein, and I'm interested in seeing where Simon Baz is gonna go. Tomar-Re is one of my faves so I hope he shows out.

DC K.O. Knightfight Issue 4 was a bittersweet story where Bruce Wayne gets what he wants the most: his Bat-Family.

As a grandpa, he sees the good he's done reflected in his lineage, but he's still forced to confront the truth that he must fight his own son. The war wages on.

This was a hard issue for me because Tim Drake is my favorite Robin, but storywise it makes sense, and I hope it leads to bigger and better things.

Bruce is furious at Damian's mistake, and it reminds me of old-school Batman, and the Monster Men fight was visually delicious.

It’s New Comic Book Day and the Bat-Family drama is stressing me out.

This is one of my all-time favorite fight scenes from season 1. So many moving parts and so well-executed

Stargirl is one of the best superhero shows because it draws inspiration from the comic books. Rather than running from history, it embraces the legacy of the Justice Society of America. The cast is perfect, it's fun with Golden Age brightness counterbalanced with dark themes.

I'm at the midpoint of my existential satire about AI. I'm happy with the tone and the flow of it, and now it's time to blow stuff up.

The new paperback edition of The Master of Shearhaven features a new look, revised cover copy, and emphasizes the gothic and queer aspects of the book. I'm really proud of how this turned out. Links to buy here: jonwesleyhuff.com/pages/fiction

I preordered these two variants of The New History of the DC Universe: The Dakota Incident. The 52-inspired cover is so cool.

I need these Milestone characters back!

Absolute Martian Manhunter Issue 8 addresses the paradoxical nature of the U.S. as both heroic and villainous depending on the perspective.

John Jones is struggling with marital issues, but he's got a better grasp on his Martian powers. This comic is existentially personal.

Wonder Man review. It’s one of the best MCU shows. A meta-commentary about acting and superheroes that hits the target with laser precision.

As a Black struggling artist, I relate to Simon Williams' story. His attention to detail was excessive at times, but it came from a place of care and to communicate that which can appear nebulous: emotions. Wonder Man inspired him, and as cheesy as it seemed, the effect was real.

I'm adding more scenes to this script than I expected, but I've outlined it in such a way that it's conducive to the flow of the story rather than disruptive.
