I guess I'm using a different definition of "deadbeat dad," which to me is a guy who isn't involved with his kids in any way - no presence, no support, emotional or financial. The narrator is clearly working to support his family - his son is even able to go to college! He simply regrets spending so much time on the…

I heard they put the brakes on those.

Generations had its moments. The last two are entirely forgettable.

Wait, there are going to be more of these Star Trek movies?

Wasn't Jadzia Dax bisexual? And transsexual, too, I suppose.

Is she 15, or did she just start college at 15? Maybe it's been a few years. I'm hoping.

Yeah, no. They got to sell some books. Leaving Iron Man to fallow ain't gonna fly. And this could be a good way to create a new hero. This Riri takes over Iron Man for a spell, then Tony comes back (which, come on, is totally going to happen). At that point, readers may have developed an attachment to Riri herself,…

Because making a new character - and making that character sell - is really hard. If you try that, you end up with a really diverse kids' table while Cap, Iron Man, Thor, and the other big names keep being white dudes. And Iron Man is one of the most logical to change up - anyone can wear the suit and just work for…

So, she started at MIT when she was 15 - does that mean she's still 15 now, or has it been a few years? Because that might affect how I feel about this development.

It's hard to create a new character and sell their books, though. Most of the big ones have been around for decades. When's the last time a new character entered the pantheon of the elite superheroes? Wolverine, in the '70s? The Ninja Turtles? It's a lot easier to put a new spin on an older icon. Black Cap, Lady Thor.…

Jobs for black women, though, not so much. They'll take your money, ladies, but they won't pay you.

I think the problem is that black women aren't in positions where they can act on their ideas for black female super-heroes. They can come up with these kinds of ideas (and, really, how hard was this?), but if they aren't working for Marvel already, well, tough luck.

Was she called "Black Power Girl"?

Phooey. I'll just have to watch that video of the Green Septing set to "Let It Go" a few hundred more times before season 7 starts.

Mae Whitman would be a much more suitable Squirrel Girl. Anna Kendrick can be, I don't know, that female Hawkeye, maybe. That's better.

If he just showed up in the background, like in a King's Landing marketplace, juggling geese, that would be perfect.

Although based on the header image, it looks like he's starring in a Mel Brooks biopic. I'm sure that'll pay well.

I'm not. Julian Glover did well with the little time he was given. I loved in the finale when he gave himself that self-satisfied look in the mirror after he got dressed. That was just an idea for a character he might have played.

She'll probably go easy on her nephew, though.

Fair enough. To the Night's Watch with him, then!
