Comics Wrap-Up - That Infamy

 

It's Thursday, this is Dora Reads, so let's get some comics-y superhero-y goodness!

Nerd Church - I'm So Tired Of The General Election

 

I'm so tired of the election.

...That's the UK election, by the way. 

Which is happening on July 4th, the date of which apparently led to several people from the Conservative party using insider knowledge to place bets. Classy. (Allegedly.)

Friday Fics Fix - Uncle Sam and Uncle Bucky

 

'In the mirror, Cass’s eyes go wide in horror. “If either one of you says that to anybody I know, I’m gonna have to run away and change my name and join the circus. Is that what you want?”

Bucky pretends to think about it. “Would you at least be able to get us free tickets?”'

 

I enjoyed this one way, way, more than I thought I would.

So, this sees Sam Wilson and Bucky Barnes from The Falcon and The Winter Soldier (TFATWS) and other Marvel stuff several years after TFATWS ends.

- Enough years, in fact, for Sam's nephew Cass to be going to his high school prom.

And of course Uncle Sam and Uncle Bucky volunteered to chaperone - because sometimes Captain America chaperones your high school prom, y'know?

Comics Wrap-Up - I'm All About The Nerd Humour

 

It's Thursday, me and a squirrel made each other jump yesterday, let's get these comics-y superhero-y things, m'k?

Nerd Church - Migraine Trips

 

You wake up and go downstairs, pausing mid-way down.

The lines of each individual stair seem to waver for a moment.

The stairs themselves seem vaguely Burtonesque - all slanted lines and moving pieces.

Your head hurts and you close your eyes.

Friday Fics Fix - Arrowverse Sweetness

Warning: very brief reference to Anxiety, and a (thankfully unrelated) brief reference to drugging people

'“You can’t stay, the guards’ rounds are random at night and…”

They would have a heart attack if they saw Flash and Supergirl eating cookies in his cell.'

 

This was sweet and I needed it.

Sometimes, you need the sweetness in fanfic. And this wasn't so fluffy that I get a weird social Anxiety backlash (it's fun to be me sometimes.)

It was just really nice, y'know?

Comics Wrap-Up - I'm Not Complaining

 

It's Thursday, I'm tired, let's get some comics-y superhero-y goodness!
