ICYMI, a retailer friend has contacted me to tell me that WHAT IF...? SECRET WARS is now out of stock at their distributor. 🤯 Copies may still be available on the racks so it's definitely worth checking with your LCS if you want one, but this is incredible. Thank you so much, chums.
Say what you will about Wes Streeting... Actually, just say what you will.
Reread this. I'll never forget how much it dismantled me when my pop let me read it entirely too young. Stan and Jack invented the first existential superhero in the Surfer, but this was its consummation. Acceptance is not defeat. There is nobility in knowing when to lay down our arms. Beautiful.
Hey, so I now have a proper, honest-to-goodness X-Men trade with my name on it. I think it's a pretty spiffy one, too. This felt a billion miles away when I was 10, but I got there in the end. So can you. Keep going.

So how the thing you thought belonged to you never belonged to you at all? Welcome to neo-feudalism.
Look, I'm not saying you have to buy this BECAUSE it's my birthday. That's between you and your conscience. Anyway, it's out today... which is also my birthday. So... yeah.
Received the most beautiful birthday card from my son. My heart is full. ❤️
I've never seen a subtitle writer person have a panic attack before.
