My favorite comic book cover from New Comic Wednesday is a tie between two Marvel titles: Magik # 9 (character Havok) and Wolverine #13 (character Sunfire). Both covers by Alex Ross for his Timeless series #comics #comicbooks

Although West Virginia is landlocked, Summersville Lake has a petty cool lighthouse at Summersville Lake Retreat in Mt. Nebo, #WV If you visit, stop and get a hot dog (with slaw, as it should always be served in WV) at Fat Eddie's #westvirginia

Long Point, Summersville Lake, Nicholas County, West Virginia. I grew up just a few miles from this site, and spent many summer days there in the early 1980s. #wv #westvirginia

Dystopian West Virginia: Nicholas County, Main Street, Summersville, #WV
