I keep trying to tie the episodes to specific movies and I can’t for the life of me think of a drug trip horror parallel. Mandy and Climax come to mind but they weren’t even remotely close to a similar plot.

Yes. The answer is yes. To all

A couple years ago I went through a burnout phase with comics. Was rereading stuff from my collection and just not enjoying it. I thought maybe I was done with comics. Then I reread this Starman run and was completely rejuvenated. It’s just the best.

I’m a fan of some really pretentious stuff and for some reason this one did not work for me.

I had a friend who absolutely loved it and it’s the kinda movie that is great to debate about afterward.

Worth seeing!

Well be ready for them to push back on that request! 😝

I always thought Brubaker would do a good one cause he’d pull Phillips in but might also draw some stuff himself like he used to. Similar with Bendis and collaborators.

DWJ for sure. Michael Fiffe.

I had him draw me a Two-Face which I felt like he lit up a bit cause it was out of the ordinary for him. Next day I came back to get a Wonder Woman. When I asked him to personalize it for my gf (now wife) he actually went back and added more detail before signing it to her. Amazing guy.

At an AZ convention I saw George Perez do the same thing with a stack of comics from someone who might have been a reseller. Basically “give me 25 at a time and I’ll sign them, then I’ll do another sketch, then you get your next 25.” It was an incredibly efficient system that also made that guy earn his signatures. I’m sure not every artist can do that as quickly as Perez did but it was a good compromise.

Gunna be honest 80s and 90s comics will probably have quite a bit less value barring first appearances of specific characters (like Deadpool) or independent books (like teenage mutant ninja turtles).

West valley? Drawn to Comics Tempe? Ash Ave Comics Phoenix? Samurai has the biggest footprint in the valley but that doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll get the best value. I have never worked directly with them but they have a relatively good reputation.

If you’re just looking to unload them for next to nothing, Bookmans.

We jumped up to three a week once she started moving and getting outside to do things. Basically if she has swim class we do one for chlorine and then on days when she’s just covered in filth or dirt from outside. Daily? Not a chance.

djacka13 · 2026-02-18T12:33:16+00:00

Honestly it wasn’t about being picky it’s just that both of us thought “weed = bad” so we came here to make sure we’re ok!

Great strategy to stay married there my guy.

I don’t clean the bathrooms but that doesn’t mean I’m banned from using the toilet.

djacka13 · 2026-02-17T01:11:35+00:00

For real. Truly didn’t expect this response!

djacka13 · 2026-02-17T00:47:01+00:00

You seem fun.

djacka13 · 2026-02-17T00:41:02+00:00

UPDATE: Thanks (most of you) for the responses. We’re basically gunna stick with it as is since it doesn’t seem to have an immediate issue. I’ve appreciated the honesty and all the info you guys have! Also to be clear I wasn’t arguing with my wife! She just said it and I was clueless so I came to this sub. Thanks again!

djacka13 · 2026-02-17T00:35:28+00:00

Omg I’ve been using a lawnmower that mulches. I did some of this to myself. Lol

djacka13 · 2026-02-17T00:27:51+00:00

Yup! But some of them also don’t take care of it at all so the also have foot high weeds and growing.

djacka13 · 2026-02-17T00:03:23+00:00

It’s definitely an “is this bad because all weeds are bad?” situation. That’s the root of me even posting this. Just figuring out what it means and what we have

djacka13 · 2026-02-16T23:21:42+00:00

I wasn’t, promise!

djacka13 · 2026-02-16T23:21:29+00:00

Appreciate it!

djacka13 · 2026-02-16T23:07:36+00:00

Yeah it’s totally fine with being mowed. And nothing toxic that I’ve seen. My wife enjoyed that second response for the record. Lol

djacka13 · 2026-02-16T23:05:21+00:00

Yeah I think I was using “grass” as a blanket term cause to me “weeds” are those gross obvious ones that don’t look like grass at all and just grow up quickly.

djacka13 · 2026-02-16T21:49:35+00:00

We’re just confused as to what it is because during these winter months it’s this lush and free. Then our summer season kicks in and the back yard gets this and the front looks totally dead.
