Walking laps of the ship before dinner is stunning, but also a lesson in taking gravity for granted. The ship is pitching so going up and down over waves and that makes you feel squishes at times and at other like I’m literally about to float away. Uncanny and exhilarating

This boat is very fancy! Ship. Whatever. We’re spending all day today in the North Sea so will explore boat facilities…

You know how sometimes you get an idea for a paint scheme and you can’t rest until you’ve made it happen… that’s me and Lhykis.
My craftworld is white with purple accents and Phoenix Lords don’t have to match but I like have nods. And that green purple beetle effect was just amazing in my head

Today in agility we started doing weaves! The early stages are nothing to look at (so no video) but so excited to see this fluffy butt weaving eventually

Weekends work. Building those Vigilors was not fun (building minis is not my favourite part) and painting them will be both fun due to the poses and also fiddly as anything with bows and strings and swoopy cloaks getting in the way.
Also re-glued the Palladors banner. Love that model.

But my pick of this very strong week is Doom Academy (Cadenhead, Ferry, @edgardelgado.bsky.social ) It’s such a fun setting and the characters are fascinating. Something about the discussion of truth seems quite relevant currently as well… and the final page! I must know what happens next!

Doomstrike Thunderbolts ( @jacksonlanzing.bsky.social @collinkelly.bsky.social Blanche, Nitro) More Bucky! And fighting against Doom with all his guile and smarts and of course still failing against the huge machinations of Doom. The call backs, the team ups, the look and scale of this…

Uncanny X- Men ( @gailsimone.bsky.social Brendan, Wilson). I am completely blaming this book for the amount of X in my pull lists. This is so good - dramatic, fun, funny without undercutting the emotion, everything. And that tease…

Storm ( @murewa1.bsky.social @lucaswerneck.bsky.social @alexguimaraes.bsky.social) This book continues to be a beautiful revelation. Look at some of the pages! And the emotion feels so deep and interesting. I love this book so much.

Laura Kinney ( @ericaschultz42.bsky.social Belviso, Rosenberg) I’ve always loved Laura, and she just gets gnarlier and better the more I read. This adds a fun Elektra and frankly I just want more of these two together! But I will settle for Bucky instead…

NYX ( @jacksonlanzing.bsky.social @collinkelly.bsky.social Mortarino, Angulo) This book just goes from strength to strength. The art is really engaging here, and there’s a lovely balance between sweet moments and bigger, shoutier moments.

Infinity Watch ( @dereklandy.bsky.social Coleman, @enidbalam.bsky.social @rebervision.bsky.social ) is surprisingly twisty and turny, but at least Ripley gets to be her best unhinged self! Getting more and more intrigued by where this is going…

It’s #NewComicBookDay! And my #MarvelsPullList is a mammoths SEVEN books long, so buckle up for the ride - with a lovely amount of Bucky and an unusual amount of X-Men…

Even though we’re on their side you can’t help but feel that the heroes are almost resisting out of reflex rather than rational thought. And yet…an empire of Doom HAS to be bad. Right?

But my pick of the week was One World Under Doom. ( @ryanqnorth.bsky.social Silva, Curiel) I feel slightly offended that my birthday (and Lincoln’s!) is chosen to announce the Latverian Empire. But it’s a fascinating take on heroism in the face of tyranny that in this case appears to be an upgrade…

First Sam Wilson Captain America ( @gregpak.net @evnarc.bsky.social Messias, Sifuentes-Sujo) Apart from the shock ending, this had some interesting revelations and discussions along the way. What does it mean to be Captain America? And a person of colour?

It’s my birthday today! But it’s also #NewComicBookDay and therefore time for my #MarvelsPullList! Two comics today, both feeling rather topical…
I read these on my brand new Kindle colour! The reading experience is massively improved from reading on my iPad. colours are a bit muted but still a win
