Comics Wrap-Up - You Know I Like It Loud
Wednesday 7 August 2019
Month in Review(s) - July 2019
July was too goddamned hot.
I spelled Gorffennaf wrong in the graphic - oops! 😅 |
I'm not built for anything past 23C, and it hit, like 31C.
I know to some of you who live in hotter places than the UK, that's nothing but... it's really not nothing to us!
I'm not a nice person when I'm hot - I'm grumpy af and just want to make the world suffer.
Also, I live in Wales. Summer is traditionally one big rain shower - WTAF with this heat?!

Friday Fics Fix - Twists and Turns
'Trying to talk to Five is like talking to a brick wall that thinks it’s smarter than you and disappears as soon as it gets bored, which is quickly.'
Let's visit The Umbrella Academy!
(I will never tire of this show.)

Comics Wrap-Up - God is a Woman
Once a year, there is the event of all comics-y-ness - San Diego Comic Con (SDCC).
Unfortunately, most of us can't sell our souls to get to SDCC...
...but fortunately, the trailers the big companies release there trickle out over the next couple of weeks, and the big announcements are pretty much immediate!

Comics Wrap-Up - You're the Perfect Distraction
You know what Thursday means? Superhero-y comics-y goodness! Woo!
Everything this week falls into the 'Other Stuff' category - which, as always, is Loki's fault.
It's also kind of superhero-adjacent, because that's just the way the cards fall sometimes *shrugs*

Month in Review(s) - June 2019
June kind of flew by!
Partly because I was super-busy! Which is also why I (once again) posted less here than I wanted to.
I did manage to post a review though! Woo! I can still call myself a book blog! (Lol.) 😅

Friday Fics Fix - Murder House Party!
“You guys seem really chill about all this,” observed Ben. “By this point most people are running around screaming.”
“Occupational hazard,” said Klaus.
“I’ve lost a lot of blood,” said Diego. “I’m just accepting everything at face value right now.”
If there's one thing that Netflix has got me obsessed with as much as Umbrella Academy, it's American Horror Story.
(Only on season 2 #NoSpoilersPlease!)

Nerd Church - 5 Super-Dads (And 5 Who Aren't So Super)
(This post may have some mild spoilers for various superhero-y dealies.)
Let's have some fun this Father's Day, shall we?
Superhero media is a hazardous place to be a father...
...Either you or your kid keeps getting kidnapped and you have to save each other...
...someone changes the timeline and suddenly you've accidentally poofed your child out of existence...
...your kids get ret-conned for film license purposes so that they're no longer your kids...
...they turn out to be super-villains even though you thought they were dead...
It ain't easy!

Friday Fics Fix - Dream Girl, Outta This World
'Which reminded her, Kara and Alex were still there, and they were both trying very hard to pretend they weren’t watching the way that Nia was very clearly staring at Brainy.'
I love the Supergirl TV series.
I also absolutely adore the Supergirl characters, Brainy and Nia Nal.
And I ship the thing, SO HARD. Lol.
(Fangirling notes: I ship the thing = I support this romantic and/or sexual relationship)

Comics Wrap-Up - Stars Are On The Ground
If all goes as planned, then by the time you're reading this, I'll actually have watched Avengers: Endgame! Woo!
...That's if things go as planned though. Said plans have already fallen through a bunch of times, so honestly, anything could happen.
My town has no cinema, so even though it's not that far away to the nearest one, these things do have to have just a dash of thought put into them!
BUT regardless of whether I've seen Endgame or not, I have a bunch of superhero-y stuff for you today! Yay! 😊
