It's Thursday, I am juggling metaphorical plates (cos I'd drop the real ones,) so let's get some superhero-y comics-y goodness!
Dora Reads is the book blog of a Bookish Rebel, supporting the Diversity Movement, bringing you Queer views and mental health advocacy, slipping in a lot of non-bookish content, and spreading reading to the goddamn world! :) (All posts may contain Amazon links, which are affiliate, unless marked otherwise.

Nerd Church - Increasingly Post/Apocalyptic Situations
Warning: this post discusses current events so mentions a lot of potentially distressing topics, including, but not limited to: war, child labour, train accidents, Covid.
WTF is actually going on?
The 2020s are something else, honestly.
Someone needs to turn reality off and turn it back on again - simulation or not, this sh** is glitching.

Friday Fics Fix - A Freaking Behemoth of a FrostIron Fanfic
'“How am I supposed to help if you’re off in the land of the God-Complex?”
Loki’s lips thinned, but any glare was lost on Stark who had his back to him.'
I'm a fan of novel-length fics, I'm a fan of FrostIron. Put the two together?
Oh boy, do I have a treat for you.

Micropoetry - December 2022 + January 2023
It's still February, so this post is not late 😉
So, with no further ado to-do (...I don't know either,) let's get some Micropoetry.
As always, the poetry will be in the alt-text for those using screen-readers, with / marks showing the line breaks.

Nerd Church - The Roald Dahl Edits Are Capitalism, Actually
Warning: this post discusses general bigotry, as well as more detailed anti-Semitism and racism, and other related topics.
Links may include distressing content.
I'm Welsh, bookish, and a rebel - of course I'm going to talk about the Roald Dahl edits. 😅

Friday Fics Fix - It's SamBucky Time!
'“Like deja-vu?” Sam asks, confusion evident in his voice.
“Yeah but for the whole day.” They’re silent for a moment, Sam looking like he doesn’t know what to say, so Bucky tries again. “Like we’re in a time loop,” he says finally.'
You can find time-loop fics for pretty much any fandom, and The Falcon and The Winter Soldier (TFATWS) is no exception.
Though it isn't so much of a thing for TFATWS as it is for, say... the horror film Ready or Not. Where the fandom has decided that time loops will both be a thing, and be the primary premise of 80% of the fics available.
...Lol. I love fandom.
(If you're not sure what a time loop is, check out the TV Tropes page here.)
