In 1985-6, I found a copy of the Legion of Super-Heroes tabloid with the Lightning Lad/Saturn Girl wedding at my usual comic store on sale for $0.50, but my mother wouldn't let me buy it because its size made it hard to store.

I finally scored this copy roughly 30 years later.

What perfect album came out the year you turned 16?

There were 3, and I can't pick a favorite among them. Living Colour's "Vivid", They Might Be Giants' "Lincoln", and the Cowboy Junkies' "The Trinity Session"

If you see this, post an album cover with a motor vehicle on it.

It's Top Shelf Friday time!

What's a comic in your collection that you think deserves to be on that top shelf? Whether it's a key, rare, or just one you love ❤️

Since I recently finished off my pre-Crisis Huntress collection, let's go with the one that started it, All-Star Comics 69!

After seeing @vinsonlovescomics.bsky.social post earlier, I decided to dig out my 2 Mike Grell sketches. Mr. Grell did an in-store appearance in 2013 or 2014 at the comic store I managed in Birmingham, and he did these for me and my late wife. I do need to get them framed and hung in my comic cave

The vet let me bring Ellie home today! We have to go back next Tuesday to have her stitches removed, but she seems to be feeling well. She's been very loving tonight, getting petted while she's curled up on my lap. (I'm sharing an older photo because of the way her fur is shaved)

One of my favorite characters is the Helena Wayne version of Huntress, and I've been attempting to collect all her appearances. Last week while on vacation, I hit the local comic stores on a bad weather day and found the final 28 Wonder Woman v1 issues I was missing, so I grabbed them all.

I'm really missing my late wife Courtney tonight. Halloween was always a favorite day for us. This is us from about 15 years ago at the beach.

My sweet little girl Ellie isn't doing well tonight. She has cancer, and I'm afraid we're approaching her final days. My late wife and I adopted her and her litter mate a little over 15 years ago, and she was my wife's favorite lap kitty. I hope she's not suffering, but she's struggling.

My first Superman comic! What's yours? #Superman

This gives me the opportunity to show off my Hembeck sketch card of Captain Carrot again.

I love the Justice League cartoon.

I apologize for the crappy phone shot video.

Using one photo already on your phone, what is the announcement tomorrow at 2?

This is Ellie. We got the bad news last Wednesday that Ellie has cancer. She is also dealing with an infection that requires antibiotic treatment twice a day. She doesn't like the antibiotic, so as she feels better from it, she is fighting me more and more when I administer it to her.

Finally cleared this achievement in Injustice 2. It's taken a lot of grinding.

Y'all wish good health to my kitty Dex-Starr. We're at the vet today because he's feeling really sick.

Top Shelf Friday time!

This week, my selection is Adventure Comics #300 cover dated September 1962.

This was a gift from my wife many years ago.

24 years ago today. I look like crap in this photo because I was dealing with massive anxiety that day.

I can't believe it's been 2 and a half years since she died. I miss her so much.

This week, I present my copy of the Final Crisis Legion of 3 Worlds #1 RRP sketch variant featuring George Perez pencil art.
July 5, 2025 at 3:40 AM
As well as a Legion of Super-Villains Special that ties into LSH Vol. 6 somehow, but I don't remember when.

Action 864 is an epilogue to Action 858-63, but I believe Lightning Lad is the only Legionnaire to appear.

If you see this, post a dragon!

I may be biased because I did undergrad there, but Blaze the Dragon is the coolest looking college mascot in the US.

I did wear one of them as a kid!

May I introduce you to Scooby-Doo Team-Up #17?
