It's Thursday, it's September somehow, let's get some comics-y superhero-y goodness!
August was a month where I had multiple migraines, so that sucks.
But it also was NOT meltingly hot (unlike the first days of September...) so I'll take that! 😅
I know some people were complaining that the skies were dull and not as sunshiney as August normally is, but honestly, if the temperature stays down then I don't care!
(Me + Heat = Angry Bear! Lol.)
It's Thursday, Comics Wrap-Up is back, this is Dora Reads, let's get an absolutely huge helping of comics-y superhero-y goodness!

July was way too fricking hot.
Like, climate change is real - summers were never like this when I was a kid. And while I'm the wrong side of 25, under 30. So some time in the last 10-20 years, things altered majorly with our weather.
It's not normal. It's not pleasant. It's gotta be some sort of punishment from the world for our collective environmental sins.
It's July, it's Thursday, let's find us some comics-y, superhero-y goodness!

June was awful.
I lost my grandmother, and everything is just that little bit harder, y'know?
I know a lot of people have been through some sh** in the last year and a half - but that doesn't make it any easier.
It's Thursday, so let's get some comics-y superhero-y goodness here on Dora Reads!

May was one of those in-betweeny months - as lots of months have seemed to be lately.
Here in Wales we had a Senedd/Parliament election, allowing Mark Drakeford (aka everyone's uncle,) to form another consecutive government, and giving him the mandate to continue with his cautious Covid approach.
It also means that while Labour's struggling nationally, Welsh Labour are the strongest they've ever been.
Which means that while England is increasingly voting for the Conservative party (the party our current Prime Minister Boris Johnson leads,) which is the party on the right of UK politics, Wales are sat here being a Socialist democracy and happy with it!
(This is your regular reminder that Socialism =/= Communism, Communism is a form of Socialism.)

April was a mixed month.
Not only did we have snow, hail, rain, and blazing warm sunshine on the same day, but the uncertain opening-up after Lockdown etc. still meant that things felt hecka odd.
We're in that odd position where we're (hopefully) beyond the worst of it, but it's also uber-important not to move too fast, y'know?
It's Thursday, it's May, let's get some comics-y superhero-y goodness!
