What’s your sign?

Sign on public bathroom mirror that reads DO NOT DUMP CHILI IN SINKS!

So funny to me that Tatum Gambit is even gonna be in this movie and is getting the full toy marketing push including his likeness

Adam Reck@adamreck· 18d

I regret to inform you that the upcoming Lego Nightcrawler minifig looks nothing like Nightcrawler 😩 But fans of Gambit might like the BrickHead? 🤔

Next time, on #BattleoftheAtom we're marking the release of Spider-Man: Brand New Day with times the X-Men have encountered Spidey, the Hulk and the Punisher!

Adam Reck@adamreck· 21d

Okay, so I'm thinking Jim Lee Cyclops but can we make him look kinda like a house painter? That's the vibe I'm looking for.

I'm hearing there's going to be X-Men MTG cards? Is this what finally gets me to buy MTG cards? This art from Dan Hipp does rule.

#BOTA fans we ask that you please be patient with us. While our new ep is recorded, we still can't access the audio files. I have asked zencastr for their help. Hopefully this is not a lost episode. We'll keep you posted.

Adam Reck@adamreck· 27d

We recorded a delightful hour+ last night for this episode but I'm having issues with the audio finalizing in zencastr. Hoping this doesn't mean a delay in release. I'll keep ya posted.

Adam Reck@adamreck· 27d

Letterboxd seems to be digging it so far. I have zero desire to see it, so I doesn't matter to me

Adam Reck@adamreck· 28d

Ok looks like IDW did reprint them in vol 8 of TF Classics, but these aren’t cheap either unfortunately

Adam Reck@adamreck· 28d

I know as a kid I was obsessed with the Transformers Universe issues (essentially Marvel handbook for TF) but I don’t know if that’s exactly what you’re looking for

Wait - Green Apple Quick Step had a THIRD album that never got an official release?!?! www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFSs...

Fun finds at the LCS: Spider-Man Magazine #10, a TPB of Ducktales the Movie and 3-D Ducks!

It's weird that this would be flagged for "Adult Content" right?

I posted the new Madonna album and it was flagged Adult Content

George Lucas comes out as pro-AI. Add him to the list of old rich dudes who should know better. a-rabbitsfoot.com/editorial/co...

The argument extends to artificial intelligence (AI), a subject that immediately animates Lucas. “Artificial intelligence means it’s much easier for us to make movies,” he says. “It’s very much like sitting here saying, ‘Well, I believe the horse and the buggy is really where it’s at. These cars, they break down, they need gas, there’s all kinds of problems with them and pretty soon they’ll be making them into tanks, and then they’ll be killing people. It’s terrible.’ There’s nothing you can do about it,” he says, raising his hands. “That’s progress, it’s the future.”

When pushed, he acknowledges the risks but insists that AI can provide its own solutions. “If you want AI that tells you when something is fake and where it came from, AI can do that,” he says. “Humans can’t, we’re not that smart. The whole idea is you’re a human being, you’re responsible for what you say and what you do, and if you’re doing something that’s illegal you should be punished for that. Whatever you do, you should be recognised. It’s just like real life.” - George Lucas on AI, Interview by Andy Hazel

Listening to the new Four Tet in the car is a trip

Adam Reck@adamreck· Jul 14

Then next time, we're talking about post-Morrison run, Morrison X-kid stories!

RIP Sam Neill - Seemed like a very genuinely good dude and starred in some of the most memorable roles with incredible range. He'll be missed.

Obama gets abducted with the entire White House by time travelers in Youngblood #9 (2008). When the book returns with issue #71 in 2011, no mention is made of this whatsoever. Obama remains missing in the Youngblood timeline.

Adam Reck@adamreck· Jul 9

Of course the wildest entry in the Youngblood canon is the team killing a resurrected MLKjr and Malcolm X. But the SECOND wildest might be when Obama was a recurring cast member for like 1 1/2 issues in 2008.

They claim this is a Japanese Gardening Trowel... Hmmm

Then next time, join us as the X-Men interact with various realms of D&D-esque swords and sorcery!

Adam Reck@adamreck· Jul 7

I wasn't actually going to make this after I joked about it on this week's ep, but @brawl2099.bsky.social asked me to so I did. I guess the real question remains would anyone buy an actual sticker of this?!

Tomorrow - Join us as we examine times Professor X tried to help people! It doesn’t go well! #battleoftheatom

It’s Jean! Dressed in her “We’re doing Adventures of Cyclops and Phoenix for ten minutes” regalia. Final verdict: Overpriced? Sure, but I like Dave’s Hot Chicken sliders and it’s not every day you can get an X-Men toy w your lunch. (Would have been fun if they themed the food tho!)

Adam Reck@adamreck· Jul 4

The bag says we should collect em all but at $14.99 we just got one. There was a big box of these by the counter. They clearly weren’t selling out of them any time soon. Who’s in here?

Adam Reck@adamreck· Jul 4

Today @annapeppard.bsky.social & I headed to our local Dave’s Hot Chicken for the X-Men ‘97 meal! There’s nothing X-men-y abt the food itself, which means you’re paying an extra $4.99 for this decorative box and a toy. Who did we get?
