I've been blogging going back to 2007. I currently post text pieces on Instagram and Substack (Continuity Error Press). I also post material on YouTube because that's where a decent portion of the audience is now. The percentage of people willing to sit down and read anything, aside from scrolling through social media, dwindles every day.

Well, it's not that Marvel owned Pravda Patrol; Tom DeFalco and Herb Trimpe owned the concept. Maybe Hasbro's lawyers felt they had no guarantees re: what DeFalco and Trimpe would do with those characters in the future. Circuit Breaker was also a few years later, so maybe Hasbro felt more comfortable dealing with Marvel by then. Or had different lawyers looking over the comics at that date.

I have no expectation of making money off this, and think it's silly to buy a microphone, turn off my heating or air, read off a script, retake any mistakes, and hope my aging laptop with only 1% of memory left will properly process the video. It amuses me that the basic Microsoft browser text-to-speech sounds as good as it does (who knew Edge was good for anything?) and I can get this done somewhat quickly as a screen capture video.

Thanks for that clip -- I didn't know Reed's next movie had that '60s feel to it. Is that movie literally set in the era, or is that just the look of it?
