New additions to the office LEGO X-Men crew!

(I particularly love that Maddie has a baby)

(Bobby, Jean and Ororo are all new variants; Cassandra, Bastion and Maddie are all new)

Happily collapsed on the sofa after a 21.9km walk doing part of the London Loop

Really lovely autumn day for it, and all the 🍂 colours are starting to come out ( y favourite season 🥰)

GAGA TIME! 🥰🥳

I’ve picked up the core X-Men books by default pretty much since I was 11 years old (barring a wee blip in my late teens where I foolishly decided I’d “grown out” of them 🤣) but I think I’ll skip the whole Age of Revelation thing/read on Unlimited … just can’t muster up any enthusiasm for it 🤷‍♂️

Monday is being fuelled by Kylie and caffeine 🥳

(And perfect as Corenswet is as Superman, he’s even better as Clark 😊)

First time rewatching James Gunn’s Superman, and I think I love it even more the second time around - the whole thing just flows so well, juggles its (numerous!) cast expertly, and the main characters are just brilliantly cast (especially Clark and Lois) 🥰

Of all the apocalyptic nightmare paediatrician scenarios, A World Without Calpol would be up there as one of the worst…

(obviously he’s insane)

All 60 issues of Avengers Academy are on Marvel Unlimited, and they’re well worth your time - creative, thoughtful and above all *fun*. Go enjoy :)

“Comics will mend your heart, if you let them. When I was a scared, lonely, closeted kid, heroes were there for me”

Utterly gutted @meakoopa.bsky.social’s inclusive, joyous, and above all fabulously queer #AvengersAcademy has come to an abrupt end

You totally paid it forward 🏳️‍🌈🥰🥳
