Very Interesting Times Indeed – Wednesday, July 24th, 2024

I dip my toe into the water of optimism, wary that 100 days may not be enough to bail out the ship of Democracy. But it’s warm and refreshing and inviting, and many of us can use that right about now.  Ain’t that poetic. How refreshing and inspiring it is to see a leader put country ahead of personal ambition.

Small Marvel week and the Blood seems to have been reduced. Diamond seems to have forgotten the “toy” department again.  DC rolls along, and it’s a huge week for the other pubs.

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.
