We used to go to concerts fairly regularly, but got out of the habit after Covid, even after it became safe to do so. So it feels strange to suddenly have tickets to four this summer after we heard about several that seemed too good to pass up. In June we're seeing Dresden Dolls (upper left) and Ted Leo & the Pharmacists (lower right), and in August Missy Elliott (lower left) and Santigold (upper right). Pretty excited!
pickJughead saves the day time after time in this imaginative revisit of the Archie comics world.
- Ace rep: Jughead is asexual
- Hilarious text by Chip Zdarsky (of Sex Criminals fame)
- Joyful, colourful art by Erica Henderson (of Squirrel Girl Fame)
I needed something fun and this fit the bill.

Class dismissed. For next time, read chapters seven and eight, fifteen times.
pickI‘m rewatching the show at the moment and decided I needed to reread these because I remember them being really different but not specifics. They‘re fabulous!!! I‘ll have to wait until next month to continue with episodes 6-9 cause they‘re currently available on Hoopla but not Libby in my area and I‘ve already used my 5 borrows this month 😭😭😭😭 I definitely see the seeds of the show here, both the aesthetic and the storyline,
pickStarting vacation reading out strong!
This was just as much fun as the first volume. Weatherbee is king of sass. Really appreciated the clear statement on bullying: it's not a joke, it's assault. And the issue to issue continuity of asexual identity for Jughead, while acknowledging it can cause friction in relationships when misjudged/misunderstood, that is resolved by open discussion. 🙌🏻
This and the other two panels are on the SAME PAGE!
Principle Weatherbee's on fire! 😂
The sass! Really digging next-generation Principle Weatherbee.
pickSo much fun! Imaginative, wholesome, but modern in sensibilities. Loved seeing the ace rep, could benefit from a bit more diversity, character-wise. Here's hoping the next volumes are just as good!
Not a lot of bands come to Alaska (or Western Colorado), so I definitely see less shows than when I was 20 minutes outside of Philly, but one of my favorite bands, Dawes, is coming to AK this summer, and we're not above a trip to WA for the right show :-) There is some good local talent in AK, too. Bar shows have been okay! 8mo
