Rain Falls, Heat Rises, Humidity Oppresses. Then relief – Wednesday, June 26th, 2024
So much rain. So much heat. Weird, but I’m sure there’s a good explanation for it. My hometown of Mankato is downstream from a dam about to burst. There’s nothing I can do about it. Looking forward to…(jump forward 12 hours) not sure where that was going. Temp dropped 10 degrees, ideal for a jog along the Mississippi. Almost as good as the Oakland Hills.
Summer of Blood continues in the Marvel Ranks and the summer of Facsimiles and reprints really takes off for both the big guys. Still full price, but much cheaper to make. Marvel’s Godzilla Facsimile Reprint is joined by 2 new Godz’s from the Other Guys’s.
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.
