Best Of

Im sorry guys. I was working late last night and forgot.

In other news next Tuesday will be the first appearance of baby Hannah.

This is such a cool concept.

I like that you're still sporting the puppet Animal Man avatar.

And if I may be allowed to lobby a bit, I nominate Trish Mulvihill every year, but she gets no attention, despite wonderful work and a decades-long contribution to comics. This year, she's working on the well-regarded Flash run. Just take a look at these colors! She deserves to be in the mix.

Ohh boy. For those who don't know My daughter doesn't like playing with Barbies, but she loves playing with marvel legends. She plays with them like Barbies with super powers.

Latest in Abigailverse since the addition of new marvel action figures.

Doctor Doom is still dating Elektra and he is caring for Valeria while she is visiting from her parents.

Captain Marvel is the aunt of Abigail's 2 Ms. Marvel action figures and sends them to super hero school. Our dog partially ate one of the Ms. Marvel's arms, that figure lost her arm saving a little girl from a crocodile.

The Vision and Scarlett Witch are married and Mary Jane Watson is their daughter. MJ is dating spider Man.

There is some kind of super hero school with Monica rambeau as the teacher and Franklin Richards attends ( not real sure what is going with that story)

I introduced my kids to Groo a few months ago and man I can't buy back issues fast enough for them. They have been giggling for the month of August

Abigail has probably read Death of Groo 5 times since we got it

Eric,

I found a playlist with all the episodes of Phantom 2040 on YouTube

For those of you who might not be following it, Sal’s kickstarter for The Hostage successfully funded, so congrats to Sal.

In one of his updates Sal recommended another project that successfully parted my money from my wallet, an Illustrated prose novel from Richard Delgado called Dracula of Transylvania. Looks right up my alley.

… would anyone support calling the CGS Annual “Best Of ____” Awards the Jamies as a tribute to Jamie D?
