How do you think the electorate becomes this way? It’s not because of some innate failure of humans. It’s because of the massive alienation that has systematically occurred over the past 50+ years (and really since WW2) as a result of deliberate policies that have decimated communities, destroyed public education, massively widened the wage gap, ruined the housing market, and is wiping out the environment. Among many other things

Policies that are frequently pushed by Republicans, but sometimes supported and often not repudiated properly by Democrats.

The Marvels isn’t even that bad. It’s a decent movie

Fern and Stark are technically in the 18-20 age range though. And fairly teenage-y. But I agree it does explore a lot of more “mature” themes.

That’s strange. I’d be interested to know how and what you searched for so I can maybe improve how easy it is for people to find [email protected].

It really is. I’ve bought a few to give out as inexpensive gifts to friends and family that might be interested.

• Ultimates #3: This is like the only consistently good marvel comic right now imo. Haven’t read it yet but looking forward to it.
• The Power Fantasy #1: Solid first issue from Kieron Gillen

Just based on your recommendation I will probably check out Falling In Love On The Path To Hell

Maybe it’s just the communities I frequent, but I think it did carry over. There’s a lot of sarcastic comments, holier than thou comments, and meme comments on Lemmy just like Reddit.

Edit: Also, a lot of negativity.

Global Comix

Read it. “Oh shit!”

😂

Geiger

I’ve been meaning to read the Ghost Machine stuff that Image is releasing. Is Geiger the best place to start?

Oh yes. I’ve been meaning to read this for a while now. Jason Aaron is hit or miss for me, but I’ll definitely be checking this out sooner rather than later.

BOOM!

Genuine question. How representative is anime corner to the tastes of the broader viewer base?

• The Last Mermaid #5
• Absolute Power #1
• Birds of Prey #11
• Scarlett #2
• Public Domain #6

5 years is short lived?

Scarlett #1 - Been fairly interested in the Energon Universe and so far have only read Transformers. Feels like a good entry point to see if I’ll like the G.I. aspect of the universe.

Kaya #19 - This continues to be one of my favourite indies. Wes Craig has crafted a really fun world with excellent characters. #19 is probably going to be the start of a new story arc.

X-Men #35 - I always struggled to really get into the X-Men comics longterm, but following the hype of X-Men '97 I figured might as well try again, especially considering that this issue is supposed to be a transition to their new era.

Birds of Prey #10 - Really looking forward to this. Birds of Prey is the best ongoing Big 2 book imo and one of the few I regularly check out.

Damn that looks crazy trippy. Love the style. What’s the concept of the book?

Grim #17 - Grim has been solid throughout but one of my main criticisms was that the characters weren’t super fleshed out. However character focused interludes like this one really help.

Read a couple of DC stuff today including Wonder Woman #9 which continues be really good.

Going to read SIKTC tomorrow

Honestly I’m the same way with Marvel. X-Men are the only ones I somewhat follow. I’m way more of an indie/sometimes DC person.

Only picked up Doom because it’s a oneshot and it’s written by Hickman.

Oh Briar #5 is out. It’s been a year since #4 but I remember liking the first arc. I think the hype for it was kind of killed by the release schedule.

Doom #1 was pretty good but the plot was a little thin. I feel like it was carried insanely hard by the art.

X-Men: Forever #4 - A very important moment for a bunch of main characters that gets some real emotion out of me. Unfortunately it continues to struggle with the incredibly rushed feeling of the Fall of X.

Dawnrunner #2 was excellent. At this point basically anything Ram V. (especially his indies) are an immediate pull for me. Doesn’t hurt that he’s constantly working with phenomenal artists.
