Comics Wrap-Up - If This Is What You Want Then Fire At Will
I'm writing this week's wrap-up with the flu. So if I say things that don't make any sense, just smile and pat me on the head, k? 😉

Comics Wrap-Up - They Say We Are What We Are
Due to some American football hijinks, we got an Avengers: Infinity War trailer this week.
I can't help but feel that we've had more in past years. But if a random-a** sport wants to give me superheroes, I'm fine with it! ;)
(And yes, it is American football - real football is played with a round ball and two nets #JustSaying. Also, I was a fantastic goalie as a kid. #TrueStory.)

Friday Fics Fix - Festive F/F!
I actually really liked this week's fic (well... obviously... since I'm recommending it... but you know what I mean!)
Sometimes a fic comes along at just the right moment - I mean, who doesn't need something short, sweet, and warming right now?!

Comics Wrap-Up - Short 'n' Sweet
OK, so, I haven't had much time for the comics-y-ness this week, because I'm suuuuper busy (that's a type of super, after all! Lol,) so I just have a few fun things in the 'Other Stuff' category.
(And, as always, I blame Loki for there only being 'other stuff.')

Friday Fics Fix- Batty Allen
So, I saw Justice League this week.
It's quite good, actually.
Not great, no, but not as terrible as a butt-tonne of critics would have you believe (though I could tell them exactly what needs editing in that first section to tighten that baby the f**k up.)*
Still, Ben Affleck and Gal Godot are not my favouritest** people for reasons of sexual harassment and Zionism respectively, but I love Diana, and Batman's Batman, so there you have it.
*Nope, no coffee. This is actually me on Diet Coke and an emotional rollercoaster of a week (Yay!)
**It's a word. Shhhh.

Friday Fics Fix - Super Chatty
You know what's fab? Fandom doesn't care about little things like continuity or multi-franchise media universes.
Fandom says 'screw it, we're just throwing all of them into a f**king group chat, cos it'd be great!'

Friday Fics Fix - Anything But Ordinary, Please
In fandom, anything that can be shipped eventually will be shipped.
(Fangirling notes: fandom is here used as a collective term for fans.
Which is both awesome and terrifying when you think about it. 👍😅
(Fangirling notes: fandom is here used as a collective term for fans.
Shipping is wanting two (or more) characters to be in a romantic or sexual relationship. This may or may not conform to the official materials, known as canon.)

Friday Fics Fix - Flash-Back
This week I have a fic for you from DC's Flash series.
It's cute, it's fluffy, but it's also quite hard-hitting.
Yes, hard-hitting and fluffy. At the same time. Fanfic writers are gonna save the world my dearest nerdlets! 😎

Month in Review(s) - July 2017
July was a big month for this little book nerd's blog!
This was the month that Diary of a Reading Addict (DORA) became Dora Reads - with a custom URL to match.
It's something that'd been on my mind for a while, and I'm so glad I did it!

Comics Wrap-Up - Heroes Always Get Remembered
Lots of stuff for you this week! The big companies always release lots of goodies @ San Diego Comic Con (SDCC,) so we've got some fab new trailers: a selection of which I've given you here.
There's also some other stuff that I've come across in my comics-y web-wanderings, as per usual :)
