Welcome to Litsy!

This book is a bible. It‘s the O.G. The first brick in the foundation of all Superhero comics that exist today. The 1st 38 issues of Spider-Man. This weighs nearly 3 kilos. My forearms are like Popeyes after reading it. Steve Ditko‘s art is sublime. It‘s a shame deadlines made it sometimes look rushed. But when he put the effort in, he drew the quintessential Spidey. I met Stan Lee once. I said “I love you Stan”. He said “Thanks” ‘‘Nuff said

Exiled to the planet of Sakaar by Earth‘s heroes, the ship he was sent on explodes, killing his new wife and allies. HULK returns to his home planet seeking revenge on the ones who betrayed him. Amazing sequel to one of the best HULK stories ever. Brutal non-stop action, bathed in emotional resonance. Greg Pak deserves high accolades for these back-to-back masterpieces.

Instant classic!
HULK is deemed a danger to Earth by some of its heroes and sent off into space to the remote planet of Sakaar where he is taken as a slave to fight in gladiator battles. He wins his freedom and becomes the leader of the freed slaves, and takes over the planet. One of the best HULK stories I've ever read. A homerun of a narrative, so epic and fun!

Thank You @catsandbooks for #ShowAndTellTuesday and for the tag 🥳🎨💝.

Made this tonight, from upcycled materials.

Saved the foil seal from baking powder and transformed it into a Batman bookmark 🦇🔖📚 by cutting out design, using double-sided tape to attach to a drawing I doodled, and attaching a string that I had saved from a previous project.

These make good ornaments. Just be sure to be cautious in case the foil is sharp.

☺️🎨🦇💝.

I combined Batman with one of my favorite sayings:

“Hope Is Like A Seed, & A Seed Must First Be Planted In Darkness“ -Unknown

To create my Haiku:

A Darkness Swept World
A Rage Born From Injustice
Yet Hope Is A Seed

Kid me loved this actor, watched his version of TV Superman as a little girl and remained a lifelong fan ever since. This was one of the first shows I became a fan of without my brother to snuggle up to while we watched.

With the current hate infused climate of this Administration. This feels like a betrayal.

And the fact that Dean Cain's biological father is Japanese! How could he do to my people what was done to his?

I remember the moon.
A cold and bloated orb, it watches with indifference as we pass below.
I remember my parents smiling—recalling some incident of our evening in town. They are so happy.
How quickly that can change, eh?
Something happens … the coach stops abruptly.

I really like the idea of resurrecting an old concept for a superhero into the modern canon. Even the premise is good: the man who once was the powerful hero, SENTRY, has only vague recollections of his past life, and all others have also forgotten him. As if he had been erased from memory. Unfortunately, the execution is lacking. The entire story over multiple issues is all build-up to a less-than-satisfying end game.

Wow! Really enjoyed this and especially it being written in the format of a movie production. So many lovable characters and one you love to hate. Bill Johnson (don‘t call him BJ) is out to make a movie, inspired by an old comic. And it‘s going to be a blockbuster.

A fascinating look at the endlessly renewing, creative, flawed entity that is Marvel comics.
Howe does a great job of moving the historical account from its first moments, through the decades, hitting on pivotal people, creations and events, offering a lot of context with details of the comic book industry throughout the years, and the company's restructuring along that path, how Marvel shaped and was shaped, 1/?
