Summer Has Definitely Arrived – Wednesday, June 5th, 2024

Summer Has Definitely Arrived – Wednesday, June 5th, 2024

With a heat advisory, so watch out. Personally, I finally turned on my AC.

OK, I did get this out this Wednesday and now they lost game 1 at home.  They are good on the road, so… They lost 2 more since, but won last night, so not a sweep! Well that was a quick 4-1. See ya next year.

Pride month begins at DC with a Celebration of Rachel Pollack, featuring reprints of her debut on Doom Patrol 31 years ago. I don’t see a Marvel entry in this niche for the week, even though they have a large number, including Ultimates #1, and way too many vampires. No toys listed, which must be an admin error – I don’t believe it.

Thanks to League Of Comic Geeks for this week’s images, which are in some unusual, non-alphabetical order, and 6 across. 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.
