FIVE YEARS SOBER… On this day, 5yrs ago, I vowed never to drink again. Immediately following Randi’s funeral, week after week I started going to AA & putting focus into the comic books that were always there. ❤️ Alcohol is cunning, baffling, powerful. There is a solution. 💫

Thank you, Stan Lee, for all the joy you brought into the lives of so many. You inspired, you created legends, changed the lives of so many. None of us are ready to see another movie where the end credits will read, “In Memory of Stan Lee.” The world is less today.

@ParisJackson Elon Musk smoked weed one time on Joe Rogan’s show & now they’re going to take away his national security clearance. Old ways of thinking are still holding people back. And largely, tradiditions are often a dumb way to go through living life.

How can a person with this many comics live with chronic depression? Easy! Start off as a regular fan with mild Asperger’s, develop alcoholism, lose almost everything, find hope in someone, only to watch her die, recover from alcoholism over 3 years, fill the void with comics.

X-MEN WEEK This is the 1981 first appearance of Rogue. This was originally scheduled to be Ms. Marvel # 25 but that series was canceled at 23. This also addresses the disaster of a story that happened to Carol Danvers in Avengers 200. Avengers annual 10 is a superb story! 💫
