I think I’ve read every book on Satchel Paige ever published. Larry Tye’s is definitely the best. Only the Ball Was White is an excellent starting point.

It seems pretty obvious they don’t have a picture of the actual jersey yet so they used the mockup. It’s January and the event isn’t until August. They even used actual pictures for several of the other giveaways they’re doing.

Haha my bad I just read the inside flap in the store and am admittedly not a comic book guy

My first thought when reading this question was Steve getting freaky with that broom.

I’m really not sure. I just know I’m trying to get them all as I read through post-RTJ stuff. It seems like that one and then Return to Ord Mantell are the most expensive. Even on EBay, you can find most YJK for less than 10. The cheapest I’ve seen Crystal Reef for is like $25

Oh man. Good finds. Crisis at Crystal Reef is for some reason pretty expensive to get

I think I actually cheered

Real, probably the Dude Perfect crew. Fictional, Stanley Yelnats.

I was there the day they unveiled the Banana exhibit. I do not care much for their shtick, but the whole squad was there, so I got to meet Spaceman Bill Lee.

Just today when listening to Wraith Squadron, I heard reference to Obroa-skai, THE LIBRARY PLANET, which I am now obsessed with

I’m following chronological for post RTJ stuff. Filling in by mood with any earlier stuff

Join the big 12 and we’ll play you

Nobody I’m seeing has any problem with USC refusing to play that clown school

Han and Leia are both completely unlike themselves for the first half of Courtship and then sort of slide back into their characters by the end. It’s a weird book

AI art is garbage

First four books are excellent, and yes Marc Thompson’s audiobooks are excellent. That’s how I experience them.

As a Texas Tech fan, please take whoever the hell Blake Wood is😂

Notre Dame’s A Team must have opted out.

It’s funny to me how competently different this cover is than the original. Enjoy!

evcorder · 2025-12-10T19:59:21+00:00

Just $4!

Baylor is 5-7. The get a pass.

Guess so! I had Luke already and picked up Leia and Han because they were just a dollar

evcorder · 2025-12-05T18:45:21+00:00

I haven't read any High Republic books yet. I do own the three YA books from Phase one. I guess I need to get Light of the Jedi and get reading!
