The Iron Age of Comics @ironageofcomics.bsky.social · 21h

The Marvel Transformers series were some of the first comics I ever read, and I had a really great time talking about them! Check it out!

(Available as audio-only on podcast platforms as well, but it’s cool to be able to follow along with the comic)

Transformers AutoBook Club episode 3, featuring the lovely Justin of @ironageofcomics.bsky.social is out now, and it's another fun one, if I do say so myself. Justin is much more fun to hang out with than Soundwave. Nobody likes that guy...

Conan the Barbarian#25 by @jimzub.bsky.social and Alex Horley serves as a good onboarding point for anyone new, it works as a self contained story, but it's also a clever meta story with jaw-dropping artwork!

Well done!
I feel like I post this often but I'm gonna do it again anyway, Lisa always has such a cute outfit! I like the jacket too, Brad!

IT'S J. MICHAEL NOT MICHAEL J. I type Straczynski fine, but I fuck his first names up every time.

OH! I just remembered a snatch of a dream from a few days ago. My mum has gone fully woo-woo, like "Opening a reiki place, doing angel therapy" woo-woo. Not my vibe, but do you mum. That part is real, not the dream. The dream was that she WROTE A COMIC ABOUT IT for me, to help me understand it!

You know what? This is really, really nicely done. I'm all about stakes, emotion, motivation and character depth. But when it's done just right, I do love me a spectacular fight. This sets up the potential for LOTS of them, and it goes VERY hard with justifying why this is happening.

Strange Tales#1 by @jeremywhitley.bsky.social, @iceghost.bsky.social and @jimcampbellart.bsky.social is delightful!Wanda and Niko find themselves involved in a game that is very similar to, but legally distinct and different from, D&D, complete with Wanda filling out her own character sheet! So fun!

"Some of the best T.V. ever filmed" might sound like hyperbole but... It's definitely some of the best I've ever seen. I went in thinking "Ugh, vampires and gay romance, this is going to be full of cliches and overused tropes." I was expecting gay Underworld, really.
No. No no. Watch it.

Alex Zalben @azalben.bsky.social · 1d

It’s actually crazy how the Vampire stuff from AMC’s Anne Rice universe is some of the best TV ever filmed and everything else is… Let’s generously say “not.”

That's fucking AWESOME.

I'm so troubled by the tiktok accounts which are just parents using their children for "content." It's really... yucky. I can't imagine what having a phone constantly in their face does to a very young child.
But... THEY ARE FUCKING ADORABLE.
A quandary indeed.

"My beautiful boy" STILL makes me tear up. That scene was so incredibly touching.

One of my preschool class kids has this bad ass spider-man bag! The embroidered web is really nice! I kinda want one myself! Always makes me smile to see superheroes here in Japan.

Black Diamond#2 ramps up the discomfort level. This series is built to make your insides squirm. Ughhh it's horrible.
