That creates its own problem. Daisy (Skye, at the time) gets a Kree transfusion near the end of season one. Why would she even still have Kree blood in her system, and how much did she have to begin with?

I mostly read them in Boy's Life myself.

The 25 cents per day plus expenses is, of course, another Encyclopedia Brown reference.

Maybe "question my gayness?"

Clinton Heylin's From the Velvets to the Voidoids covers the Cleveland scene from the Eels, Mirrors, and RFTT through Ubu and the Dead Boys pretty well.

Liar! Liaaar!

I'm about to turn 45, and I was a fan of the comic in the mid-80s, so I can attest to that. I was too old for the cartoon to be nostalgic for me, but I can also attest that it is totally a thing with my 9-year-old son's generation. Pokemon too, for that matter.

I just say pantsless chaps, not that it comes up that often. Though it does come up more often than one would think…

I like Ralph, it clearly goes Shade>Jack Knight>Ralph and Sue.

My problem with Arrowverse Waller had less to do with her size, and much more to do with her age. Skinny Amanda seemed too young to sell the hard-earned authority of The Wall as she was portrayed in Comics/JLU.

I had just finished telling my wife how Kara was acting like Clark in S3 when he was affected by Richard Pryor's "tar" kryptonite, when I saw her at the bar with the peanuts I giggled like a child.

The incomplete essential punk history reading list, according to me:

We Got the Neutron Bomb is essential. Not terribly well-written, perhaps, but very well-researched. And It filled an important gap in the punk history canon by telling LA history.

It very much reminded me of this classic early '90s Steve Albini essay

I see it as the Monarch choosing his Venture obsession over love. His hatred/attachment to Thaddeus is the only thing he cares about more than his wife.

You mean this season, right? Because "Guess Who's Coming to State Dinner?" still exists.

It lasted until then, sure. But it all started after The Police's "Every Breath You Take" in '83.

I know you didn't state the song was "Great Balls of Fire." I just thought in the absence of the actual song's name some folks might assume it was. Cheers.

Black and white would be more appropriate if the show was set in the mid-'80s, actually, when 2 out of every 3 music videos were shot in B&W (or so it seemed at the time).

To add to the “It’s Mostly Rock ‘N Roll (But I Like It)” section, the actual Jerry Lee Lewis song in the episode is "Breathless," not "Great Balls of Fire." The episode also features the "Magic in the Moonlight" by the Magic Tramps when Olivia Wilde is being filmed at the Factory.
