We’ve taken in a new bunny. It’s not 100% certain that we’ll be adopting him as it depends on how he gets on with Milky, but things are going well so far.
We’re calling him Barnabus.

I was born and raised Catholic and, although I no longer believe, it's still in my bones so this week's The Power Fantasy was exactly my kind of shit.
The first page reminded me of the one quote I always associate with Pope Francis. “I like to think of hell as empty; I hope it is.”

Devastator hitting a leaping cutter off a building onto Bruticus is by far the coolest thing that’s gonna happen in comics this year.

I don’t know if this is an unpopular opinion but I really don’t like blurbs and speech bubbles on comic covers.
Let the cover speak for itself.

I really like what Jason Aaron has done with expanding the oceans of the Marvel Universe but I have very little confidence that all these interesting corners and societies will ever appear again.

I don’t want to start J. Scott Campbell discourse but it’s mad that the cover for MAGIK #1 and the interiors are so wildly different.
There are people who would really like this book that probably skipped it for the cover

I’m really enjoying the new TWO-FACE book from DC. Harvey Dent serving as a lawyer for the criminals of Gotham in their own internal justice system, while pretending he’s still Two-Face, even though he isn’t.
The way Hass conveys a character’s hearing loss through lettering is a highlight of #2
