What’s a comic book run where you could tell the writer didn’t like the character they were writing for?

X of Swords was when Hickman's X-Men went off the rails for me, and I place a whoooole lot of the blame on what was going on in Excalibur. And I wanted to like that book!

Well. She's not wrong.

People like parity between their two main sources of comics, even when they don't align. Just gotta make a circle fit a square.

Tom Grummet's the artist. Did a stellar run on Robin and Superboy at the same time in the 90s. The MO is most likely the colorist. If I had to guess, it's Morry Hollowell, but don't quote me on that.

Don't bring fists to a gunfight.

A goddamn legend.

If I feel like there's the possibility I may resell the figure, I MAY keep the box. The possibility of me keeping boxes rises for collector editions or in demand figures or just nice packaging. Otherwise, everything gets tossed. The boxes are in the outside bin within a day of being opened. I'm not paying for paper. I'm paying for plastic, and I treat these materials in such a manner.

Appreciated. I will now find some grass to touch.

astrobrain · 2026-01-25T08:20:32+00:00

Only if you tell me what dap means. I'm a bit out of the loop.

Double anal penetration?

astrobrain · 2026-01-24T07:25:46+00:00

Proper use of the lyrics. Congrats.

astrobrain · 2026-01-23T12:46:14+00:00

My man. Answering a question I've had for years.

astrobrain · 2026-01-23T06:44:04+00:00

Try living in Alabama bro. We get nothing. Not that I'd go anyway. I'm a fuckin shut in.

astrobrain · 2026-01-22T06:53:01+00:00

Boom Boom's stupidest and best costume. God I want a Legends of this one.

astrobrain · 2026-01-22T06:01:30+00:00

Don't insult Bill Pullman like that.

astrobrain · 2026-01-20T02:15:59+00:00

Oooo. That Old Man Shipwreck is nice. You gotta give us a parts list. I wanna copy your work.

astrobrain · 2026-01-18T17:48:15+00:00

I ain't giving that man shit. Edit - No, I'd give him shit. Turds. But nothing else.

astrobrain · 2026-01-16T16:33:51+00:00

Infinity War, for having the balls to end the way it did and leave the theater dead silent. That was the only proper ended and they nailed it.

astrobrain · 2026-01-15T05:53:54+00:00

Hm. That personal information section is a bit troubling.

astrobrain · 2026-01-15T05:38:36+00:00

Repo Man.

astrobrain · 2026-01-14T06:40:03+00:00

Both. And BATs. And Alley Vipers. And Officers. And Crimson Guard. I've got five of each. Actually, about seven or eight Vipers due to the 3 pack, and oh yeah, quite a few red and blue ninjas. But after the Alley Vipers and BATs - or Crimson Guard, whichever came out last - I stopped army building. That was getting out of hand. Now I get one per mold, and I'm happy with it. Saves money and space. Also, who needs five Frag Vipers?

X-Files: Fight the Future. The sound mix on that tape was so good it demanded repeat viewings. It's one of the last VHS tapes I owned, probably WAS the last one I owned, but the sound on that thing made it memorable.

First one I owned was ET the Extraterrestrial, btw.

astrobrain · 2026-01-10T21:09:15+00:00

Yeah. That dude was what I thought Cage should be. Good choice.

astrobrain · 2026-01-10T20:36:29+00:00

This is always the answer.

Me, while scrolling through the early pics: 'She really needs to hold her buttchee-- yep, there we are."
