He/Him. I like all kinds of things: Comics, Monsters, Movies, Wrestling, Animation, Food. Just be chill and don't hate on anyone not hurting anyone, and you're cool with me.

This speech from Captain America is one all of us should pay attention to, rather than the garbage spewed in Washington today. I'm scared, for all of us, but I will do anything in my power to stand against the oncoming storm. This is my home, this is YOUR home, and they don't get to say otherwise.

Steve Rogers as Captain America delivers a very important speech to Peter Parker, from Amazing Spider-Man #537 by J. Michael Straczynski, Ron Garney, Bill Reinhold, & Matt Milla

Lance Reddick did his damn best but that RESIDENT EVIL show on Netflix really is buttcheeks. Like, Reddick was honestly really entertaining, but everyone else was SO VERY BAD it just couldn't be saved. And it may have been my age showing, but the soundtrack? Painful. I wanted to like it, too.

They were never named that, but the concept was very similar, as it was a team formed out of members from different Realities. The Exiles as we know them formed after Age of Apocalypse, when Blink jumped into a new Reality.

No worries! Always happy to talk TMNT, they were a very early obsession that lasts to this day.

The fact that that literally happened (in another What If? issue, but regardless) still blows my mind 30 years later. It's kinda unreal they even published it back then.

He was in his early-to-mid 40's from what I can tell, but still. He was probably younger than me, and you can see what I look like in my profile pic. People aged differently back then for sure.

100% correct, it's so very good. I'm in your debt for raving about it earlier this year, as I bought the first few issues and am completely hooked. Perfect comics.
