Over the weekend I finally, officially finished Volume 6 of the Usagi Yojimbo Saga collected edition by reading the "celebrity roast" of Stan Sakai that Dark Horse did to commemorate the 100th* issue of UY included in the back of the collection. Various Dark Horse alumni like Frank Miller, Jeff Smith, & Sergio…

Vindows, goddammit! C'mon, commit to the gag!

Turns out every klansman's mother is named Martha, too.

"Faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, able to leap tall buildings in a single bound—this amazing stranger from the planet Krypton, the Man of Steel, Superman!

Yeah, their riddles were, uh… kinda lackluster.

It's good! There's a mystery element to the story I wasn't expecting, and that's enough of a hook that I'm really interested to see how it plays out.

Thank you—that comparison to Eternal is perfectly apt and sums up the one complaint I have with that book that I couldn't quantify until you said it.

Patsy Walker AKA Hellcat #16 & 17: Legit disappointed that this book has wrapped. It wasn't for everyone, as I know discussions here have expressed, but it was charming and lighthearted in a way I don't think is always as valued as it could be.

Admittedly, the Hi-ho song is much better in the original Khuzdul.

Terrifying? They're not even the fiercest killers in the animal kingdom.

He's listed in the credits as "Panama Hat," so I like to imagine his name is actually something like Roger "Panama" Hat, Junior, and while his villainously inclined family named the snow leopard Panama, he's got a lot of fond memories of that snow leopard.

Can the long-promised Mac and Me sequel be far behind?

Let's just say it moved me… TO A BIGGER HOUSE!

I just got through that volume of Master Keaton, a book that—along with Pluto (and Yotsuba&!, for bizarre thematic dissonance)—has low-key reignited my interest in manga. But with that series finishing out soon, not sure where to go from here.

I've been quietly enjoying Gillen & Walker's Star Wars: Doctor Aphra series—supporting SW characters in their own wacky adventures being my kind of jam—so this week I picked up one of Gillen & Larroca's Darth Vader trades to see where she got started. Dope that I am, I grabbed Volume 2 instead of 1, but it wasn't a…

Finished Astrid Lindgren's Ronia the Robber's Daughter because I've been considering giving it to my niece and nephew, and now having read it, I will. Working through Thomas Frank's What's the Matter with Kansas?, which now, in retrospect, seems disturbingly prescient, and Terry Tempest Williams' The Hour of Land. I…

If I knew how, I would! But yes, it's one of McQuarrie's concepts for the trench run, which seemed fitting for my deep cut Expanded Universe reference of a username.

Ha, the Russians won't get my porn that easily! Initiating Omega Protocol—knew I bought these industrial strength magnets for some reason.

… huh. I 100% did not sign in with you, long-dormant, non-AV-Club-specific Disqus account.

He's nervously calling up LeClair and Renberg to ask if being in the Legion of Doom made them the baddies.
