Month: January 2021

Man, imagine if you could *see* that monster. Happy Friday, everyone. Especially for those that have Monday off. Enjoy!

Uhhhhhhhhmmmmm..... Well, you're getting a lot for your dime, anyway. And the comic certainly seems to live up to it's tagline.

That is one weirdly buff skeleton. Is that a sock that's fallen on his skeletal ankle? That's a great little detail.

Comic book covers! Whee!

Groan! Monday is upon once more. But hey, for many of us there's another three day weekend coming. (Followed by a short work week, the extra blessing of the Monday holiday.) First of all, if you want to see a great bad airplane crash--and I know you do--go to YouTube, check for Valley of…
