Oooooh. Jealousy.

Dammit, Tom. Poor Caravan of Courage catching strays for no reason.

We weren’t a magazine family, since those cost money, but I had #49 (Empire Anniversary), #50 and #54 (Indiana Jones 20th Anniversary Double Issue). Those poor issues got a lot of mileage. Wish I still had them somewhere.

Also not particularly relevant symbolism for the Three of Swords but that’s just me on my nerd shit.

I genuinely thought it was an Onion article the first time I ever heard about them. It’s so on the nose it hurts. Just goes to show that these aren’t smart people. They’re just hateful, sweaty, wannabe tyrants with a god complex and zero imagination.

The appropriation of LOTR by the far right is so baffling to me. It’s like…you know you’re the nature-defiling, greed-fueled, authoritarian industrialist bad guys in ANY Tolkien book, right?

Cautiously hopeful.

I don’t like throwing the word around but…honestly, iconic looks. 🤷
