People Keep Fighting – Wednesday, November 1st, 2023

Arms dealers are having a banner year.

Well, I’m on time for once, but just barely, so this will be as short as if I were late. DC has so few comics that it looks like a “skip week” (fifth Wednesday is now fifth Tuesday since they are technically ‘on sale’ ‘legally’ on yesterday).  Marvels have someone named Jeff, and someone called the White Widow. I don’t give myself access to new comics anymore, so 1) why am I writing this stuff?, and 2) it’s TWO mysteries I can’t answer. And as an amateur comic archivist, I dread the re-introduction of the word “Ultimate” into the Marvel Universe of Taxonomic Chaos.  Five words from the Other Guys’ list: Cooper, Pony, Vampirella, Canary, Transformers. And one not-a-word: Syzpense.

Thanks to League Of Comic Geeks for this week’s images, which are in some unusual, non-alphabetical order, and 8 across. So it’s a somewhat random sample. I’ll keep searching. Use the list, and MAYBE the pictures will be useful.

Wednesday is still New Comic Day, no matter what you read on the internets. Watch this space and our Facebook page for the latest news about the rest of the month, season, year, millennium, etc. (And text messages from 5-Star.) The complete list is found below.
