Image Comics has quietly taken over the “specialty collections” that used to be handled by IDW, involving books and creators that were not previously involved with Image. Upcoming books include the Hellboy in Hell Artists Edition #2 Hardcover, the Darwin Cooke “Spirit” collection, Jim Aparo’s DC Classics collection, Wally Wood EC stories Artist Edition, Steve Ditko Amazing Spider-Man Artists Edition HC, and so on.
It remains to be seen how many of these books actually make it to shelves, but it’s interesting to see Image being associated with quality publications like these.

Yesterday I rewatched RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES for probably the first time since it originally debuted on streaming services. I think I must not have been paying very good attention that first time, because this time I picked up a lot of Easter Eggs and homages to the original 1968 PLANET OF THE APES film. My favorite was reference to the spaceship Icarus (Charlton Heston’s ship in the original), bound for Mars and piloted by an astronaut named Taylor (Heston’s character), which suddenly goes missing. Other homages include the water hose punishment of Caesar in the Animal Control center, and one “jailer” referring to the place as “a madhouse; a MAAAADHOUSE!!” Another cool one is that the name given to Caesar’s mother, Bright Eyes, was also Dr. Zira’s nickname for Heston’s character in the original POTA.

Hideous massacres in Sudan right now. It’s time the world paid more attention to this conflict.
Unfortunately, if you get your news from an American television channel, you won’t hear a word about this.

Grammar: It affects the choice of the indefinite article, as in āan H-bombā.
āHaitchāThis brings to mind one of my pet peeves with local TV news anchors and reporters: the insistence of referring to something as “an historic moment” (right now they’re talking about Hurricane Melissa as “an historic storm hitting the island of Jamaica”. Now I was always taught in school that, if the “H” is heard at the beginning of the word (as in Historic or Horrible), you use the article “a”; but if the “H” is silent (as in Honor or Homage) you use “an”: It’s an honor to meet you at such a historic moment!
But somewhere along the way during the past 50 years, the grammar police have turned a blind eye to the misuse of “an” in front of “historic”. I never hear anyone say they went to see an horror movie last night, or that they had an horrible meal at a restaurant, because such usage would be grammatically wrong. So why is it okay now to say an historic moment?

There is little to no evidence of the existence of the main figures of the religions from Krishna to Moses to Jesus to even the Buddha (and even Mohammed is getting a little sketchy as historians look into the evidence)…obviously fictional and legendary…obvious fables…obviously not…Deductively, we are left with no demonstrable evidence for the existence of god or gods…
Using words like “obvious” and “obviously” does not automatically confirm the obviousness of something if you haven’t provided the research and facts and deductive reasoning to support that position. Similarly, using phrases like “little to no evidence” and “no demonstrable evidence” are meaningless without the research to back them up.
There is, in fact, historical proof of the existence of Jesus. Not proof that he was the Son of God, but that he was an actual person who actually existed, was baptized, and was crucified. He wasn’t a fable or a mythical figure. As stated in the linked article:
“Virtually all scholars of antiquity accept that Jesus was a historical figure, and the idea that Jesus was a mythical figure has been consistently rejected by the scholarly consensus as a fringe theory.”Fringe theories are the ones that usually “prove” things by the use of buzzwords like “obvious” and “deductively” rather than by providing the research to back things up.

Are there albums where every song is great in your opinion, where you donāt skip anything? Some of mine are: Kate Bushās debut album, Ry Cooderās eponymous debut album, Pink Floydās Dark Side of the Moon and Purple Rain by Prince.
My formative pre-teen years occurred in the late ’60s/early ’70s when ALBUMS were the thing! The first album I remember owning (which I got from an uncle for Christmas) was More of the Monkees, which was a very uneven collection of some of their radio hits surrounded by lots of filler, which would have benefitted from lots of skipping; but the albums I bought for myself (or specifically requested as gifts) were meant to be listened to from start to finish: Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, Abbey Road, Led Zeppelin IV, After the Gold Rush (Neil Young), Tapestry (Carole King), Dark Side of The Moon, The Wall, Brothers and Sisters (Allman Brothers Band), There Goes Rhymin’ Simon (Paul Simon), Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, and so on. Even though there are one or two songs on a particular album that aren’t quite as good as the rest, I’ve often felt that the artists put them on the record, and arranged the songs in a particular order, and that I should not mess with that order.
The rise of the compact disc changed all that for me. Whereas albums were usually limited to 45 minutes maximum in length, which forced artists to self-edit and include only 8-12 songs per album, the standard CD allowed them to go up to about 75 minutes. This led to releases that contained 45 or 50 minutes of great music and a half hour of…not-so-great stuff that probably appealed only to diehard collectors. These days it’s harder to find that perfect CD album where every song is worthy.

The thing is, corporate Marvel doesn’t actually want to go in bold new directions. Instead they want to continuously recycle old ideas in new packaging and hope that the consumer doesn’t notice. The only significant difference now is that they are giving work to people who are willing to work for a much lower rate than the previous standard, as a way to make profit without increasing sales. If you’re looking for innovative and competent writing, art and editing at Marvel these days, generally speaking, you’re looking in the wrong place.

And, while he’s not a kid like Pete Buttegieg, at 64 he’s younger than me, which is a good thing considering how sitting in the Oval Office prematurely ages just about every President.

I very much doubt Superman did the numbers DC were hoping for (it made significantly less than Man Of Steel, even without adjusting for inflation), but obviously theyāre not going to admit that publicly.
As I think you’ve stated previously, Dave, the conditions in the first two decades of the 21st century that made possible the unprecedented blockbuster ticket sales for MCU and similar franchise films abruptly vanished when COVID shut down cinemas and film production. In its place we now have many customers (including me) who are perfectly happy waiting a few months for new films to transition to streaming services; or, if we still go out to the cinema, we only do it once and then wait patiently to have repeat viewings on the small screen. This being the case, I’m not sure we will ever again see the billion-dollar-plus box office numbers that became commonplace with the superhero genre films. You see it, I see it, most people on the Carrier see it, just about everyone sees it except the heads of the studios.

Spotify is similar; their algorithm creates playlists for you based on what you’ve already listened to on the app; so if I primarily listen to 70s rock music, it’s unlikely that I’ll get a recommendation for a new song by Pitbull or Toby Keith.

“Chalant” is a humorous, informal term that means the opposite of “nonchalant”. It’s not a real word in the sense that it’s not found in standard dictionaries. However, it’s used in a playful way to describe someone who is careful, attentive, or concerned, contrasting with the “nonchalant” person who is cool, calm, and seemingly unconcerned.
“Aura farming” refers to the practice of strategically performing actions, often in a performative way, to cultivate a desired “aura” or cool image, particularly in online or social settings. It’s essentially trying to gain social capital or admiration by appearing effortlessly cool or stylish. The term borrows from gaming, where “farming” means repeatedly doing something to accumulate resources or level up.
“Rizz” is a slang term, primarily used by Gen Z, that refers to charisma, charm, or the ability to attract and seduce someone romantically. It’s essentially a shortened version of “charisma” and often implies having “game” in romantic pursuits. Someone with rizz is considered smooth, confident, and skilled at flirting.
So, to translate, when Dave’s kids say Bond is very āchalantā and is constantly āaura farmingā for ārizzā, what it really means is that all of us here on The Carrier are old farts who need to get a life.

There is more demand for sherry casks, which are to be used for maturing whisky, than there is for the actual sherry.
Yeah, there are strict regulations in the Scotch whisky industry regarding the barrels used. Per the Scotch Whisky Association:
Previously, Scotch Whisky could only be matured or finished in casks that had been traditionally used in the industry – bourbon, sherry, rum , wine, beer to name just a few. Such casks will continue to be used but some flexibility has been introduced which potentially allows for the use of casks previously used to mature other spirits, as long as a number of conditions are met.
Scotch Whisky can only be matured or finished in new oak casks or oak casks which were previously used to mature wine, beer/ale or spirits but not if those casks were previously used to mature:
– wine, beer/ale or spirit produced from, or made with, stone fruits
– beer/ale which has had fruit, flavouring or sweetening added after fermentation
– spirit which has had fruit, flavouring or sweetening added after distillation
The American bourbon industry has even tougher standards, including limits on how many times a barrel can be used.

Serious question: who would you suggest as a replacement?

Who in Hollywood or television today do you think is able to do what Feige did?
