I was not expecting Cross to be so good. Loved the dynamic between these two and the way DC shows up. The dinner party (ep5?) felt like a bizarre mistake but Alex’s roadtrip with his son more than made up for it… loved the whole family. Hoping we get a S2! #tvsky

I’m part of a Black Comics Club in Columbia, SC and this month we discussed the translation of Hugo Canuto’s stunning TALES OF THE ORISHAS from Brazil. The story is fairly standard but I wanted to frame every gorgeous page - highly recommend ✨

With my own money? It was probably the New Jack City soundtrack, since I recorded everything else from the radio, lol. On my Walkman for weeks… Ice-T, Color Me Badd, Christopher Williams, my mom had no idea! 👀

I write about Black literature and comics (mostly from the 1950s) and I am enjoying this thread so much 😊
