The truth is I never left you (Part 325)...

TRUTH In The Time Of tRump!

Yep, this is exactly what will happen. Although if there's a God and any justice in the world, unlike after the casino, after leaving government, tRump will be incarcerated somewhere.

POLT

IF I were a hero, I'd be Martin Luthor (Part 792)...

Superhero Anydays

Today we have the amazing cover, done by the unparalleled George Perez, of Justice League Of America #200! I LOVE this cover, and this issue. The original seven founding members fight the other newer members at 7 different points around the globes (and shown in the columns in the back behind all the action).

But on the cover, we have Firestorm vs The Martian Manhunter, Aquaman vs. Red Tornado, Green Arrow and Black Canary vs Batman, Hawkman vs Superman, Zatanna vs Wonder Woman, Elongated Man vs. The Flash, and The Atom vs Green Lantern!
********************
Also today, we have the same cute Latino twink wearing three different superhero shirts: Captain America, Iron Man and Spider-Man!

POLT

I took the road less traveled by (Part 430)...

I know nothing about it, other than I assume it was done by a guy named Waterman.

Just a little rhyming/Lord Of The Rings/Harry Potter humorous wordplay!

The truth is I never left you (Part 324)...

TRUTH In The Time Of tRump!

This is so simply written, most of his supporters could probably read it and understand it. Although, it's unlikely they'd ever follow it.

On the ground, we have: Mr. Terrific, Wonder Woman, Wildcat, Sandman, Dr. Mid-Nite, Star Spangled Kid, Hourman, Robin, The Atom, Black Canary and the Flash.
In the air: Batman, Johnny Thunder and his Thunderbolt, Hawkman, Dr. Fate, Spectre, Green Lantern, Superman, Starman, Huntress and Power Girl and Red Tornado up top.

Pink elephants and lemonade, dear Jessie (Part 303)...

Real Men Wear Pink

Sometimes, when they put on a pair of tiny briefs to go swimming and decide to take a flotation device with them, they take a unicorn tube with a pink nose along!

POLT

You abandoned me, love don't live here anymore (Part 68)...

Abandoned Places

An abandoned, deteriorating castle. So sad.

POLT

I used to live in a tiny bubble (Part 60)...

SUDS!

Apparently, this is Oskar Pollen, from Dusseldorf Germany, in a strategically sudsy tub.

German, twink, naked, suds.....what more could one want?

You're wantin' my body, I don't mind (Part 622)...

Sunday, January 28, 2018

Today, just 5 days after I last did one of these, 4 people were murdered at a car wash in Fayette County PA.

Another was shot, but is expected to live, so I read.

I've got books filling my shelves day and night.....

Books 2018

I had heard the Ollie's was going to get a restocking of the graphic novels, so last Thursday I was in Chambersburg and checked out their Ollies. They didn't have a whole lot of new stuff, although they had some, and I got 4 graphic novels. Today, I was in Hagerstown, and went to the Ollie's there. They too had some new stuff, but not a lot. I got a few, and then picked up some regular books at their regular book section.
