Andor is the best Disney Star Wars. Really shows what villains the Empire are.
Good.

(We literally re-subscribed to Disney+ when Andor Season 2 started streaming.)

Just finished reading Kim Newman's "Anno Dracula." I forgot how good it was. Has anyone read it? If so, what did you think?

So happy to see these editions, especially the war comics. Some of DC's most overlooked works.
Looks like ten new DC Finest volumes today, ranging from Golden Age to Silver, Bronze, post-Crisis and beyond, with some interesting choices in there.

And hey, that STATIC volume has an issue by me in it. I *am* the Finest! Or among them, at least.

So happy I got to see him in his heyday at an ROH event.

Before Hulkamania ran wild, the WWF was home to a legendary roster of talents who set the foundation for the wrestling boom. From 1980-1983, these larger-than-life competitors battled for supremacy proving their value as WWF All-Stars.

His legacy is stronger than ever.
This is the 20th year since we lost Eddie Guerrero. The time has flown by. We still miss you Eddie.
