I don’t get to read them as often as I’d like to, but damn it, I love comic books.
My day always feels drastically better when I can squeeze in reading a few issues.

Is Threads being weird for anyone else? This “appeal” was submitted after being asked to prove I’m a human.

Happy to! Been wanting to check this out for some time, and this book print is pristine

That’s fair. I’ve always thought they were two franchises that could go together.

Paperback Dan @paperbackdan.bsky.social · 15d

Why’s that?

Paperback Dan @paperbackdan.bsky.social · 15d

Been catching up on #EnergonUniverse stuff over the last week or so, and I gotta say, I love it. How do you feel about it? #ComicSky

Is this also turn based?

I’ve heard nothing but great things about this game as well.

Paperback Dan @paperbackdan.bsky.social · 18d

Definitely going to go the VPN route for the time being.

Unfortunately it resulted in me paying for a month of the service. I’ll just have to figure out a different solution before the next show, until Comcast is supported.

Yeah. I had no idea until I was scouring Google 30 minutes ago trying to figure out how to get it set up before people arrive. Infuriating.

Leaving me, someone who thought they were covered, and expecting company over to watch the show tonight, scrambling for a solution. AKA paying for the fucking subscription last minute.

What an absolute joke. Predatory behavior that should not be tolerated.

WWE and ESPN have spent weeks telling people that have cable, that they won’t need to pay for this disgustingly priced ESPN streaming service. Yet they conveniently lacked an emphasis on the fact that it was only supported by certain cable providers at this time.

Is this a safe space?

…. I did not buy that Batman/Deadpool book today, and I feel like the only one.

Every time I get back to reading #RadiantBlack, I am reminded that I can confidently say Marshall Ward is one of my favorite comic book characters in recent memory.

Has the price for crowdfunded comics gone up over the last year? I feel like they’ve gotten more expensive, and I’ve steered away from more books than usual for cost reasons. Is it just me?
