My most woke belief about filmmaking is that its morally and ecologically reprehensible to fly the same handful of people around the world to star in every movie and that movies should be required to have 90% local cast and crew

1. Trump is in the process of sending millions in taxpayer money directly to his political allies — and himself.
The money purportedly is to settle legal claims.
But these claims are extraordinarily weak and have little to no chance of success.
In reality, it is a brazen theft.

Help me out here, Kirby heads, do we know whether he meant for Darkseid’s arms and legs to be bare? Modern artists/colorists tend to render them the same color and texture, but some colors on Kirby works have smooth pink arms/legs like tights compared to a craggy gray face.
