This was fantastic. Ollie is written exactly how you'd want him to be written. It's such a huge improvement considering how poor this series was under the previous writer. And such a shame it's been cancelled, presumably because of people like me waiting for the trade. :(

My Frankenstein review:
I'm reading this and I'm really enjoying it, but for some reason the one thing that's too silly for me to handle in this novel about a man who fights crime while dressed in black rubber is the fact that Batman has built himself a van to drive around in.

Me: It's actually a good thing if not every comic book is aimed at me and it's exceedingly tedious when fans moan because something isn't exactly to their specific tastes.
Also me: This is the least tempting first issue of an Iron Man series that's ever existed and I am personally insulted.

Got some great comics at @excelsiorbristol.bsky.social yesterday, including Lois Lane marrying the Devil and the Justice League cover where Brian Bolland invented the idea of Starro crapping out little facehuggers - used to great effect by @jamesgunn.bsky.social in the Suicide Squad.

Since there is no way to plug this photo into my veins I'll be keeping it on my phone instead to use as a handy reaction meme.

Picked up New History of the DC Universe #4. Loved this series. It's fanwank, but really lovingly made fanwank that remembers to be fun. I love DC's new "everything counts" ethos. Weirdly though that's still not enough for some fans...

This panel of Baby Superman being distinctly unperturbed about the destruction of his home planet may be one of the funniest things I've ever seen in a comic.

I've been struggling a bit this week, so I feel perfectly justified in having just spent 50 quid on Bronze Age Superman comics.

Thinking of the time this MAGA bloke interrupted a press conference in Nevada &, struck by my resemblance to him, I posted a photo of myself in a vest & face mask on Instagram, only to be DM'd by a Japanese news show asking for an interview. Took me ages to get them to understand that I wasn't him.

The Superman Triangle Era Omnibus vol. 2 arrived today and I'm dead impressed that they've taken the trouble to include the fold out spread of Superman's death. The trade paperback I've got just divided it up into separate pages.
