Hello!😊🌞 Thanks for your blog, love it so much!!! I’m sure you’ll be interested in that https://youtu.be/XtATK2_rwb8 new interview of David in case you haven’t seen it yet. It’s on YouTube Times Radio “You have to be in states of undress, it’s odd”
0:44-3:54 - GO part. It's funny to watch him still trying to keep balance and leave room for interpretation describing Crowley and Aziraphale's relationship but his emotions betray him at 2:43
07:22-08:50 Staged part (or rather about Michael part)
at 08:05 - the way David looks to the upper right corner (which means he is mentally recreating a visual image, recalls it) when he says that Michael is much more of a thespian in RL than he is 🤭 and that dreamy and playful smile of his speaks volumes…
Hi, Anon! I'm slowly making my way through the backup of Anons I've had from last week, so my thanks to you for being so patient. I'd seen this interview briefly in the lead up to the release of GO 2, but I think it got lost in the shuffle with all the other interviews and content we were getting, so I'm glad you brought it to my attention again.
(I also had a really weird day in the fandom yesterday, with one person blocking me immediately after I reblogged a post of theirs, and another person subtweeting--well, taking a screenshot/reposting instead of reblogging--one of my polls just to attack me, and then tagging it as if I somehow wouldn't see it in the tags. I just...what? So your kind words about my blog are truly appreciated, because both of these incidents had me feeling pretty low last night...)
For those who haven't seen it, here's the full interview:
youtube
What I love about this interview--apart from the clearly deliberately chosen video title and thumbnail text--is that this interviewer was one of the few who really "went there" regarding Aziraphale and Crowley's relationship and specifically asked about romance. (Granted, calling it "the love that dare not speak its name" wasn't great, but it was still light years ahead of the verbiage used by some of the other interviewers.)
She also asked questions that went beyond the typical GO 2 presser pablum, and I think got some genuine reactions out of David as a result, as you mentioned. In the first bit you highlighted, I could see what you described, with David's emotions betraying him, and it's especially interesting to watch now that the season has come out (as opposed to watching it before):
David clearly was trying to skate around things/not give anything away, but you see that mask slip just slightly. (I also love that he comes much, much closer to slipping and far more overtly in the interviews with Michael than when he is by himself.) It's giving me the same feeling as those pictures of Michael looking super smug after that one day of filming in 2022--as if there is something they both know that we don't. (And not necessarily just The Kiss...)
The second moment you touched on struck me even more, in terms of David's emotions betraying him. Again, I think there was something about the way this interviewer asked questions and got at the heart of not just Aziraphale and Crowley's relationship but also his and Michael's that caught David by surprise and somehow got him to open up more than perhaps even he expected:
I completely agree about the dreamy and playful smile at the end, as well as him looking up as if replaying a memory. I think the interviewer again subtly but clearly specifying real life (as opposed to the Staged versions of themselves, for instance) pushed David into that place of thinking about his and Michael's dynamic, and that his reaction is such an obviously positive one is so wonderful to see.
Perhaps what I love about this most of all is that it's another example of how soft David and Michael are when they talk about each other when the other one isn't there. It brings to mind Michael talking about David's "bad habits" at MCM Comic Con last year, and how in both cases, they're taking the piss out of each other, but in the sweetest way possible, because it is underpinned by so much love and affection. Beautiful.
So yes, those are my thoughts on this interview. Glad to know that you saw the same things that I and others have noticed, too, and that there seem to be more of us who do see than who don't. Thanks for writing in, Anon! x
#anonymous#reply post#david tennant#soft scottish hipster gigolo#good omens 2#interview#times radio#the amount of vulnerability and love between them#the way they bring each other up when the other isn't around is everything#saying a lot by saying very little#but i think david is definitely telling us who he is#a friendship that's become something more#ineffable lovers#discourse#gifs by me

❝ [ . . . ] let's examine closely at this dangerously evil creation, this new killer encased and contained within the supple skin of woman. the softness is there, the unmistakable smell of female, the surface shiny and silken, the body yielding yet wanton. but a word of caution: handle with care and don't drop your guard! this rapacious new killer prowls both alone and in packs. operating at any level, any time, anywhere, and with anybody! who is she? she might be your secretary, your doctor's receptionist ... or a dancer in a go-go club! ❞ ( art by olga solovian ♡ )
#𝐅𝐑𝐎𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐒𝐄: an independent, selective and mutuals only roleplay account dedicated to louise lincoln / killer frost from the DC comics. portrayal is based on batman: assault on arkham and 80s firestorm comics. read rules in my carrd before interacting. slow activity will occur. mobile rules are listed underneath 'keep reading'. defrosted by venus ♡
pinterest ┇ playlist ┇ headcanons ┇ memes ┇ interest tracker ┇ starters ┇ notes
MOBILE RULES
01. TRIGGERS + AGE LIMIT
this is a highly triggering blog containing dark topics such as: murder, torture, abuse, substance abuse, religion and nuclear war. i only interact with muns over 21+ for my own comfort. DNI if your content includes racism, sexism, cheating in a romantic relationship and homophobia. my triggers are trypophobia and NSFW threads. i put triggers in my tags like this: ___ tw.
02. SHIPPING
i'm a multishipper that only accepts healthy relationships with solid chemistry. louise is bisexual as evidenced in the original comics. she only dates criminals or monsters which means i never ship her with heroes. i don’t write NSFW threads but i do make suggestive content if she's in a relationship. it will be tagged accordingly.
03. ACTIVITY
i come and go on this account. this just means i'm unmotivated to write and busy with life. i only ask for you to be extremely patient with my replies since i’ll be doing the same thing for you.
04. FOLLOWING
i only follow if i’m interested in louise interacting with your muse and have read your rules prior. i’m very OC, crossover and OC x canon friendly. it’s highly suggested that you have rules and about page for your muse on your account and for you? i just want an age to be stated otherwise i won't be following back.
05. MUN
hi, i’m venus and i’m over 21+ years old. my pronouns are she/they. just keep in mind i suffer from social anxiety so it makes it hard to interact with new people but thanks for taking the time to read my rules!
06. REBLOGGING / INBOX
only mutuals can like/reblog from my account but please don't spam my content and always reblog a meme/prompt from the source! personals are not welcomed here unless you run a RP side blog. i don't mind anons asking me or frost questions. it's highly encouraged! any anon hate will be ignored.
07. PLOTTING
plotting will be optional. my interest tracker is also optional. if you wish to speed up the process and establish a dynamic or plot, then you can fill out the sheet.
if we’ve plotted or established a dynamic: you’re welcome to send in anything in my inbox or tag me in random starters or posts. i’ll be doing the same thing. expanding an inbox reply as a thread is accepted as well, but you and i are not obliged to reply to it if we don’t want to.
08. FORMATTING
i prefer to go iconless on a reply. this doesn't mean you have to do the same. i only care about chemistry, writing and prefer our threads to be trimmed.
09. PORTRAYAL
my portrayal of louise will rely HEAVILY on canon divergence and is slightly influenced by mixed media. i draw inspiration from her appearance and personality from batman: assault on arkham and 80s firestorm comics which means frost will be a real asshole to deal with but is friendly with monsters unless provoked.
10. DRAMA
this is a drama free blog. it will remain that way unless it's a very serious issue affecting the RPC. please do not drag me into your personal problems and always tag negative OOC posts.
final note: to anyone who wishes to write with me, please like this post before following me!!

Looney Tunes insight: "Rabbit of Seville (1950)": A Timeless Bugs in Drag Masterpiece by Chuck Jones
By Sofi Ojeda
Images from the short film: Rabbit of Seville (1950) by Chuck Jones
The 1950s marked a significant period for the United States, heralding the Animation Golden Era. Within this landscape, the Looney Tunes series, crafted by Warner Brothers Inc., emerged as a captivating force, delighting audiences of all ages with its distinctive characters and comedic narratives. As the era unfolded, the renowned Chuck Jones brought forth another animated gem, "Rabbit of Seville," a short film featuring the iconic Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd in a comedic opera scenario set in a vibrant barber shop.
The backdrop of the cartoon finds Bugs Bunny taking refuge backstage at the Hollywood Bowl, coinciding with an opera performance of "The Barber of Seville." Seizing the opportunity to turn the tables, Bugs orchestrates a comical grooming spectacle for Elmer Fudd, ensnaring him on stage and creating a dynamic interplay with the orchestral accompaniment. The film's director, Kenneth Chisholm, captures the essence of this mischievous tale, underlining the intricate maneuvers of Bugs as he masterfully executes his barber role.
Images from the short film: Rabbit of Seville (1950) by Chuck Jones
Reflecting on my initial encounter with this cartoon as a young viewer, I recall the initial perplexity, quickly replaced by an infectious sense of amusement and laughter. The technical intricacies of the film add further depth to its brilliance. The title itself cleverly plays on Gioachino Rossini's renowned opera "The Barber of Seville," infusing the narrative with a vibrant blend of anarchy, madness, and impeccable timing.
Notably, "Rabbit of Seville" holds a distinguished position in the realm of animated classics, as evidenced by its #12 ranking in Jerry Beck's 1994 poll of animators, film historians, and directors, celebrating the finest short cartoons of all time. Despite its acclaim, keen observers have noted occasional inconsistencies in the animation, such as Bugs sporting five fingers instead of the usual three in a particular scene. Furthermore, the film subtly references "The Marriage of Figaro," adding a delightful layer of intertextuality to the narrative.
Image from the short film: Rabbit of Seville (1950) by Chuck Jones
A distinct feature of the cartoon is the appearance of both Bugs and Elmer in drag, a playful trope that adds to the dynamic nature of their rivalry. Bugs' characteristic gender fluidity, combined with his penchant for breaking the fourth wall, contributes to his timeless appeal. Despite the societal norms of the era, the character's portrayal served as a subtle example of queer coding, resonating with individuals seeking representation beyond conventional boundaries.
Set against the backdrop of post-World War II rejuvenation and the burgeoning baby boomer population, the cartoon received widespread acclaim, becoming a staple for audiences seeking light-hearted entertainment. Its enduring popularity is a testament to the timeless charm and universal appeal of the Looney Tunes legacy, underscored by Chuck Jones's unparalleled contributions to the world of animation.

Full short film: Rabbit of Seville (1950) by Chuck Jones
"Rabbit of Seville" remains a historical gem, accessible to contemporary audiences on platforms like Vimeo, serving as a vivid testament to the indelible impact of Chuck Jones and the enduring magic of Looney Tunes. As we celebrate the rich heritage of animation, let us continue to cherish the whimsical spirit embodied in this animated masterpiece, an evergreen source of laughter and joy for generations past and present.

important to note. i am not super intricately familiar with all the xmen lore, that is i haven't read many comics, i have seen the movies. however i am also very open to interacting with all sorts of portrayals and my askbox is open to any questions or suggestions for rex. i am developing them as i go. rules last updated (08/08/2024).
one. i am selective and private meaning that i will only interact with mutuals. this blog is also meant to be a plot centered blog, i run other blogs alongside this one and to keep my motivation up we must have some basis of a discussion ooc to know where we want to take a dynamic.
two. rex is a nonbinary, they use all pronouns but mainly they/them. you are free to alternate pronouns for them as you see fit, however they are not a woman. i am asking now that you respect their gender and gender presentation.
three. i ship chemistry, meaning that after a couple of interactions or ooc discussion if we both muns feel like the possibility of a romantic dynamic could occur then we can go for it. i love shipping but i do not want it to feel forced.
four. this blog will feature triggering content at times. given how rex is based on general xmen universe lore, any triggers that apply to said material may ocassionally be present. in their backstory moments of transphobia may be present but it is not something i would like to actually rp. i will tag triggers as cw trigger.
five. i am 21+ and i do not rp with minors, if you are a minor dni with this blog. smut is unlikely to happen in this blog.
six. if you character has committed r*ape do not follow me this is a big trigger of mine. i will hardblock as i see fit.
seven. i will not tolerate untagged drama and call out posts. i understand sometimes these are made with the safety of the rp community at times but i much rather be approached by asks or dms if i am interacting with someone who is an active thread to other's wellbeing.
eight. i created the graphics i use here and the psd is by pinkinnards.

PORTER tease upcoming album, GENOSHA, with intentional and dynamic new single, Tout Est Pardonné
Danke für die tollen Worte aus England zu "Tout est pardonné":
KIMU – Karlismyuncle • UK https://karlismyunkle.com/2024/04/08/porter-tease-upcoming-album-genosha-with-intentional-and-dynamic-new-single-tout-est-pardonne/
PORTER ziehen uns mit einem fesselnden Gitarrenspiel in ihren Bann, erweitern es mit strukturierten Drums und zerebralen Melodien und eröffnen Tout Est Pardonné mit atmosphärischem Gesang und philosophischem Tiefgang. Unnötig zu sagen, dass wir beeindruckt sind.
"Tout est pardonné" hören: https://shorturl.at/cjDRS
Wir schätzen die instrumentalen Darbietungen, die nichts weniger als ein Meisterwerk darstellen und einen unverfälschten, alternativen Rocksound manifestieren. Die fesselnden lyrischen Hooks und das übergreifende Konzept des Tracks sind bewusst scharfsinnig und strahlen poetisches Können aus, während die Abwechslung im Gesangsdesign die dynamische und absichtliche Reise aufwertet.
Zur Zeitgeist-Botschaft der Veröffentlichung gesteht die Band: "Die Texte haben wir uns von Sophie Scholl ausgeliehen. Es sind vermutlich ihre letzten Worte, kurz bevor sie am 22. Februar 1943 von den Nazis ermordet wurde. Es sind wichtige, wahre Worte."
Die deutschen Schöpfer fahren fort: "Es gibt heute keinen Grund und keine Ausrede mehr, den Mund zu halten angesichts der offensichtlichen Bedrohung durch faschistische Tendenzen in der Gesellschaft. In diesem Lied geht es um Mut. Davon, in Zeiten purer Unmenschlichkeit menschlich zu bleiben. Es ist eine Warnung in der heutigen Zeit, die sich anschickt, das Geschehene, das Unvorstellbare, in Vergessenheit geraten zu lassen. Aber es geht auch um die unverzichtbare Hoffnung, die auch in den dunkelsten Zeiten der menschlichen Existenz Bestand haben kann - Bestand haben muss, wenn wir alle eine Chance gegen die sinnlose Barbarei skrupelloser Diktatoren und ihrer Handlanger haben wollen.“
Wir erfahren, dass Tout Est Pardonné die vierte Singleauskopplung aus dem lang erwarteten dritten Album der Band, GENOSHA, ist, das einen "viel metallastigeren Fokus" hat. Auf diesem Album überträgt PORTER die vorherrschende gesellschaftliche Dynamik - die Sehnsucht nach Veränderung bei den einen und den Widerstand gegen Veränderungen bei den anderen - in eine fiktive Stadt namens "GENOSHA". Die Stagnation und Apathie gegenüber einem unvermeidlichen Wandel hin zu einem achtsameren Miteinander zwingen eine allmählich wachsende Gruppe dazu, die Vorstellung vom Schicksal abzulehnen und stattdessen die Kontrolle über ihr eigenes Schicksal zu übernehmen. Der Name "GENOSHA" ist dem gleichnamigen dystopischen Ort aus dem Marvel-Comic-Universum entlehnt, wo er als Allegorie für Sklaverei und Apartheid verwendet wurde.
Wir schätzen die bewusste Tiefe, mit der PORTER arbeiten, und haben Tout Est Pardonné in unsere New Music Spotlight-Playlist und unsere brandneue TIMELESS-Playlist aufgenommen, während wir weiterhin die anderen Songs von GENOSHA streamen, darunter Tax Free Hollows und Behind The Banlieu, und uns auf den Rest des Albums freuen!

Weekend Top Ten #612
Top Ten Doctor Who Companions (2005-2023)
Happy 60th Birthday, Doctor Who! Yep, technically it was Thursday 23rd but Who’s counting, eh? The Doctor is now Bus Pass Age, not a bad achievement for someone who’s either 900, 1200, or over two billion years old, depending on how you’re working it out. Timey-wimey and all that.
To celebrate the anniversary of what is probably my favourite British TV show (just pipped at the post, I’d say, by The West Wing, classic Simpsons, and maybe – depending on my mood – Star Trek: The Next Generation) I’ve decided to look at that essential component of Doctor Who-ness, the Companion. The companions are great, because the Doctor is almost unknowable; an ancient cosmic being who has all sorts of weird powers and capabilities, who’s seen and done so much. It’s not just the two hearts and the time travel; they’re frankly weird, at times sage and wise, other times naïve and childlike. So the companion is our point-of-view, our entry-level look at the universe; they’re also a great leveller, bringing out the Doctor’s best qualities and humanising them. And, frankly, they serve that Watson function of allowing a brilliant character who knows everything to exposition all over somebody; they’re there to get talked at.
But, of course, the Companions are so much more, helping to bring Doctor Who to life in untold ways; they can be the heart and soul of the show, the even if a new companion comes in with a familiar Doctor, the dynamic can change enormously. Peter Capaldi’s Twelfth Doctor is very different with Bill Potts than he is with Clara Oswald, for instance; and Ten’s relationship with Rose was unique despite David Tennant sharing the TARDIS with several other people.
Now, whilst I did watch Who when I was a kid, I didn’t really get into it properly till the 2005 reboot; so, to keep things simple, I’m just going to focus on companions who’ve been in the show since then. Sorry, Ace! I love ya! But I don’t feel I can parse my Sarah Janes from my Bonnie Langfords with particular grace. Also, I needed to define exactly what a companion was; I settled on someone who travelled with the Doctor across multiple episodes, with the intention of remaining in the TARDIS. So this meant I had to, very sadly, discount River Song; she’s a guest star, and obviously a huge part of the Doctor’s life and Moffat’s grand over-arching storyline, but I don’t think she was ever a for-real in-TARDIS capital-C Companion. Captain Jack, on the other hand, did remain on Team TARDIS for a few episodes before buggering off to Cardiff. So he counts.
Anyway, enough waffle; let’s light up our sonics and celebrate.
Amy Pond (Karen Gillan, 2010-2012/13): feisty, funny, and flirty, Amy wasn’t a wide-eyed naif nor a grumpy sourpuss, but a someone who was just really enjoyable to watch. Her chemistry with her Doctor is some of the best in the series, but it was the stories that put Amy through the wringer – from a universe-defying romance to an impossible baby – that made her so compelling, and the deft way Gillan responded to the outlandish, hilarious, and ultimately tragic events. There was something about her performance right from the off; we were watching a movie star born before our eyes.
Donna Noble (Catherine Tate, 2006/08-2010/23): prior New-Who companions had mostly been besotted with the Doctor; Donna was pissed off by him. A human who saw the very alien nature of the Time Lord, she was often his conscience – such as in the episode The Fires of Pompeii – but chiefly Donna will be remembered for the humour she brought to the role. Tate was a tremendous comic double act with Tennant, and it’s going to be very exciting to see them together again.
Rose Tyler (Billie Piper, 2005-2006/08/10/13): a companion so important that the very first episode of the rebooted show was named after her. She was the show, arguably the main character in that first season; a woman from humble origins who was destined to change the galaxy. Her growing feelings for the Doctor – especially when he regenerated into David Tennant – were subtly drawn, but in so many ways Piper defined what a modern companion should and could be. So iconic they brought her back for the Fiftieth as a different character cosplaying Rose Tyler.
Bill Potts (Pearl Mackie, 2017): a bit of a milestone in Who history as the first queer female companion and only, I believe, the second woman of colour. Her dynamic with the Doctor was different to what came before; there didn’t seem to be the deep spiritual connection, but she was a funnier, more free-wheeling sort, who loved the adventurous life among the stars. She got to have her own mini-tragic-romance play out over the series, and was the centrepiece of storylines dealing with race and gender politics. A great companion, sadly underused.
Clara Oswald (Jenna Coleman, 2012-2015/17): a companion who suffered a little bit with some flakier plots and character arcs, which is a shame as Coleman is a great actor who had terrific chemistry with two different Doctors, and very different relationships with them, too. A kindly soul with a fun spirit who masked a steely core, she was excellent in the anniversary special The Day of the Doctor.
Rory Williams (Arthur Darvill, 2010-2012): wow, the first bloke on the list. Mr. Pond is just, well, really nice; a massively nice guy. His total love for Amy is such a beautiful thing, spanning eons (he waits for her for two thousand years!). It’s uncomplicated but strong and fiery, and yet he’s totally trusting. He knows he’s the second fiddle in the relationship, forever overshadowed by his brilliant wife, yet he remains unthreatened and trusting and supportive. Plus, rather nicely, they fancy the pants off each other, so their fate – Amy choosing to be trapped forever in the past with him – is utterly believable. A great guy!
Jack Harkness (John Barrowman, 2005-2011/20-21): I’m a bit squiffy putting him on the list because Barrowman is, well, a touch problematic. However, Captain Jack was a great character, injecting a huge does of sex to the usually straightlaced Who. A phenomenal space-flirt who’d “how you doin’” every biped he came across (steady), he was fun in a wartime greatcoat. Torchwood gave him added depth and complexity. I imagine it’s unlikely we’ll see him again for some time, although I suppose he’s no Mickey Smith.
Yasmin Khan (Mandip Gill, 2018-2022): New-Who had done variations on the “companion loves the Doctor” story, but this was the first one to give it a queer lens, without any sensationalising. In a crowded set of companions, Yaz was always the stand out: young, funny, with a great family to draw on, but the smarts and steel of a police background. Sadly – like many characters in that era – she didn’t really get the strength of story to justify her character, and as groundbreaking and well-handled as the developing romance was, it likewise fizzled out to nothing.
Graham O’Brien (Bradley Walsh, 2018-2021/22): most companions are young a sprightly; Graham was a resolute old duffer who provided a nice amount of grandfatherly charm and twinkle to such a propulsive show. You got the sense that Walsh was loving every minute of it; and whether he was just easier to write for, or Walsh was just a more experienced performer, he did the best out of some weaker scripts, always shining and giving the show a lot of comedic pep.
Martha Jones (Freema Agyeman, 2007-2008/10): coming after Rose was a huge ask, but Martha delivered a nice twist by falling in unrequited love with the Doctor, a thread of tragedy running through her whole arc and giving it steel. She was also just really capable and heroic throughout, even as her Doctor became an angrier, more bitter character, weighed down by his losses. She got to fight the Master! When the Doctor got turned into Dobby the House Elf! She’s badass!
Edit: now with fixed formatting! I went back in time and did it. Yay.

Comics Read 08/13- 20/2023
Over this period I of time I read Rockstars written by Joe Harris, art by Megan Hutchison-Cates, colors by Kelly Fitzpatrick, designer Tom Muller, letters by Michael David Thomas, and edited by Shawna Gor. The edition I read this time was Rockstars The Complete Series as published by Vault. Years ago I read the first arc, “Nativity in Black Light”, in the trade paperback as published by Image Comics. I intended to get the second arc’s trade paperback, “Children of the Beast” as published by Image, but somehow missed it. Anyway, I am glad I got this edition as it encouraged by to reread the first arc which I otherwise remember next to nothing about. The page I scanned to illustrate this post, with its myriad references to our world’s rock ’n’ roll icons and legends may be the part I most clearly remember.
A quick search on my tags reveals I have never written about Joe Harris on this blog. This really emphasizes how long it has been since I have read any of his work. I have been writing about all the comic books I read for the better part of four years, and even though I was reading most of what he wrote for a while, none of it was during this time! I first became aware of Harris around 2013, when I was preparing to attend my first New York Comic Con. I went to a signing at Forbidden Planet the same week to get some comic books signed. There were four comic makers there. For some reason I now only remember the two that I was not there to see. One of them was Joe Harris, who at the time was primarily promoting his The X-Files season 10 comics (before the revival meant there was a tenth season of the television show). I have a complicated relationship to TXF. It was the first show I really obsessed over, it’s the first I feel angrily disillusioned over. I’m writing something about it in my other Tumblr for the anniversary. That night, I bought the trade paperback Great Pacific, one of Harris’s other creator owned comics. I liked it a lot and started following his creator owned output. I bring this up because the lead characters of Rockstars, Jackie and Dorothy, have a Mulder and Scully-esque dynamic. Jackie is driven by his family history and seeks answers through mystical uses of cards. Dorothy is a journalist, and seeks answers that she can safely publish. These two character arcs were not really developed enough either of them, but Jackie gets to a more interesting crossroads.
More directly relevant to this book, between reading the first arc the first time and reading this all now, I have steeped myself more in rock ’n’ roll legends than I was doing the first time around. Among other things I watched Brian De Palma’s The Phantom of the Paradise which reminded me about how often Faustian bargains and early death have been staples of rock legends since nearly the beginning. The plane crash that killed Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and “The Big Bopper” J. P. Richardson pretty much solidified this. This event is included in Rockstars, though the way is in questionable taste. (Coincidentally, that plane crash was also important to the plot of a famous episode of TXF.)
The plot of Rockstars, starts with investigating the mysterious deaths of a couple of groupies decades apart. There are ghost gangs of the groupies interfering with the investigation and they tend to be herald by the wrong lyrics of famous songs. The deaths of the murdered ones are related to demonic champions of the bands. Each arc covers a different demon in relation to a different band. The first band is an arch-typical second wave British invasion bad from the 1970s, and the second is arch-typical early hair metal band from the 1980s. I am more familiar with the former than the latter, despite actually living through parts of the 1980s. The plot didn’t really add up for me. But I love a lot of the details in the drawings, nods to famous theories and art. I also am touched by the concept of how generations are bonded because we each go through the same cycles of cultural events. I just wish that Dorothy’s character design wasn’t so close to some of the groupies in flashbacks or ghost form. It was needlessly confusing.
I feel like, of what I have read, the best comic books about loving music are Kieron Gillan and Jamie McKelvie’s Phonogram and The Wicked + The Divine. This isn’t like either of those, and that is a good thing. For all it’s flaws, I wish there was more of it.

Alright I’ve done some general stuff time for a weird one.
Brawl in the family is a Smash Bros Inspired comic released around the time of release of Brawl and would create these smaller site gags about a variety of the different characters and universes featured in the game as a whole, with a specific focus on the Frenemy Dynamic of Kirby and King Dedede who were the most prominent characters throughout the comics entire run
as said though the comic covers other Different franchises as well
Artistically the series employs that colourful Simplicity, with that sort of 2010′s style Web comic look, I really enjoy the aesthetic of it as it gives off that sort of simple charm you see in Comic strip art while also including the fun of more goofy internet webcomic style artwork.
humour wise Brawl in the family is more dedicated at it’s target audience that being people who like Nintendo franchises a lot of Jokes are riffs on game visuals or popular Inside jokes within each Series Individual community, it’s got Less broad appeal than something like Garfield but someone who the comic is clearly being targeted towards would likely have a greater attachment towards the series as a whole.
TriforceBun (2023) Brawl in the family. Available at: http://brawlinthefamily.keenspot.com/ (Accessed: 08 May 2023).
