Incoming rant: questioning humanity when brother tells me that a customer says something along the lines of, “No wonder there was a shooting, when you can't fill a prescription on time“ JFC. Thankfully this particular beam of sunshine was banned. *Note, there's a 24 hour location literally 15 minutes away.It costs *so* little to be decent to one another, yet seems to be the biggest struggle for some.
pickDoctor Strange has been murdered, and in his absence the Earth is threatened by extradimensional demons and sorcerers, however, the Sorcerer Supreme of Earth-616 has prepared for this eventuality!
It's pretty good, if fairly standard, magical superheroing. Low pick 3.5 🪄
pickX-men Epic collection Wounded Wolf is a pretty solid Claremont collection of the x-men and New Mutants doing what they do. Loki has a crush on storm. Wolverine is rescued by another little superpowered girl. TW for some pretty glaring fat-phobia though. Between the mojoverse, murder world, and Asgard the X-men don‘t do tons of defending a world that hates and fears them, but they do try on lots of outfits.
"So, she went from being the child of a village, loved and nurtured by all, to being a child of nothing and no one, with a swiftness that left scars so deep they might never heal."

The book isn't a novelisation of the 2025 movie, but it was released at around the time it was in production, so I've borrowed a film poster image ?
We're visiting our son in Ely for his birthday, and popping into Toppings for a Christmas present for my great-niece, I made an impulse purchase of the tagged.
It's based on the comics version of the character - sword-and-sorcery in Conan the Cimmerian's Hyborian Age - rather than R. E. Howard's prose version - historical adventure in medieval France - and I'm prepared to allow it a degree of schlock latitude, so anything better than that will ⬇️
pickA fun follow-up to the first book. In the afterword, the author explains that he didn't want to repeat the story of brains over brawn, so he decide to explore when someone intelligent gets a little too cocky. Great illustrations and a meaningful story.
pickExplore Charlie Manx‘s twisted beginnings in this prequel to NOS4A2.
Good story. Pretty cool artwork.
