The He-Man Effect: How American Toymakers Sold You Your Childhood GN -  Box Brown

Brian "Box" Brown brings history and culture to life through his comics. In his next graphic novel, he unravels how marketing that targeted children in the 1980s has shaped adults in the present. Powered by the advent of television and super-charged by the deregulation era of the 1980s, media companies and toy manufacturers joined forces to dominate the psyches of American children. But what are the consequences when a developing brain is saturated with the same kind of marketing bombardment found in Red Scare propaganda? In The He-Man Effect, Brown shows us how corporate manipulation brought muscular, accessory-stuffed action figures to dizzying heights, bringing beloved brands like He-Man, Transformers, My Little Pony, and even Mickey Mouse himself into the spotlight.

Nemesis Reloaded TP -  Mark Millar & Jorge Jimenez

In a fun, high stakes adventure weaved together with downloadable face-melting beats, Ninja Funk follows a ragtag band of misfits as they attempt to save a universe that's off-key.

Occulted GN -  Amy Rose, Ryan Estrada & Jeongmin Lee

When the Hale-Bopp soared across the sky in 1997, Amy Rose thought it was the start of an amazing new future. Instead, it brought news of a horrible tragedy at the Heaven's Gate compound just down the road. Amy had always known there was something off about the community she grew up in. She had been forbidden from going to school, or visiting the library because the leader told her that there was no use learning about a world that was about to end. But it was not until the news of the deaths at Heaven's Gate invaded the temple walls that she heard a new word that explained everything: cult.  She must risk everything to indulge in secret trips to an abandoned, off-limits library that teaches her everything she was not meant to know. That Gandhi was not a space alien. That Star Trek wasn't real. That her community was built on a lie. And most importantly, the banned books give her all the information that she needs to escape.

Pea, Bee & Jay: The Big Bully GN -  Brian "Smitty" Smith

The three besties are searching for treasure when a great big pumpkin storms over and bullies Jay into giving up his very shiny pebble-not cool, Pumpkin.

Sort Of Super Vol 1 TP - Eric Gapstur

Wyatt and his sister Adeline are determined to investigate an extinct volcano hundreds of miles from home that Adeline believes to be related to their mother's mysterious disappearance. At first it seems like an impossible mission until they realize there's a summer camp conveniently situated near the base of the volcano. So it's off to summer camp for Wyatt, Adeline, and their buddies Beto and Nara. But when they get there, they find it impossible to sneak away from the heavily chaperoned grounds.

Jayda G — Guy (Ninja Tune)

Coming off the warm reception to her eco-conscious debut full-length Significant Changes, Jayda Guy’s star was ascending in electronic circles for her crate-digging sets and productions that blended classic Chicago house, disco, boogie and funk. Her time in Berlin was finished; she had wrapped up co-running the Freakout Cult imprint with DJ Fett Burger and moved west to London. She got married. And despite the pandemic’s onset, she bucked the trend for most anxious dance music producers and found a hit in 2020 with everyone at home: “Both of Us” was as memorable a single as you’ll find from the summer that wasn’t. A DJ-Kicks entry in 2021 as things started to open back up again wasn’t unexpected, but the same can’t be said for her second album. Guy is as much a therapy session as it is an album, as much for her as it is for listeners.

“I had the idea for the album for a long time,” she recently told Billboard, but “didn’t have the time, energy and space to tackle what that would look like emotionally.” That idea? Grappling with the death of her father, who passed away when she was 10. With nowhere to go and no one to play to during the pandemic, Jayda trawled through more than 11 hours of video William Guy recorded about his life with her older sister after being diagnosed with terminal cancer. What a life to draw from, too: From a childhood growing up in Kansas to enlisting in Vietnam to Washington, D.C., riots to roofing in Canada to social work, William had a rich personal history to draw from and what seemed to be a considered perspective on his life as a whole as his days drew to an end.

For tackling such a personal topic, then, it made sense that Jayda G would rely on herself more than ever to uncover how that emotional soundscape would take shape. Though Jack Peñate (Adele, David Byrne, Adele) co-produces and Lisa-Kaindé Diaz (Ibeyi) and Ed Thomas (Nia Archives, Stormzy, Jorja Smith) feature, this is wholly Jayda’s album. Reversing her usual method of starting with the music and leaving lyrics last, the songs of Guy started with the words — and, for the first time (aside from “Both of Us”), her own voice. From focusing on what’s said to vocal coaching in an effort to carry tunes better, Guy is a very different listen to what precedes it.

Following a scene-setting intro from one of her dad’s tapes, “Blue Lights” jumps into it to give you an idea of what you’re in for. With a light bongo touch, Jayda’s vocals practically bounce over a sleek house track that portrays her dad’s position as a nighttime radio DJ amid the D.C. riots of 1968. There’s the marital discord of “Heads or Tails” and “Lonely Back in O” set to backclaps and carefully deployed, lush-yet-spartan synths. The airy highlight “Scars” will resonate with anyone who’s ever been discriminated against by authorities, particularly the police. “Your Thoughts” is quite simply New Wave, an ‘80s synth-pop throwback with the slightest Caribbean tinge to it in the dubby echo of the synthesizers. The breezy yacht rock guitar of “Meant to Be” fits the song’s topic of Jayda’s dad meeting her mom in Canada, a buoyant optimism pervading. “When She Dance” late in the album also incorporates the perspective of Jayda’s grandmother and the power of Black womanhood.

The real revelation here, however, is “Circle Back Around.” You could write tomes on this track, which again addresses authority and discrimination, but it’s perhaps the most cohesive song Jayda G has ever written. The single version with the video shown above is slightly different from the album version and, though less suited to the dancefloor, is the better of the two: Audio snippets otherwise scattered across the album are condensed for the video into one of the finest singles of 2023 as her dad describes running from the cops as a kid in Kansas before the galloping beat appears to complement the theme. Jayda’s vocals are at their most cathartically ethereal here, and the way the beat drops back in for the final stretch is unmatched; only the hardest of hearts could give it a shrug.

If Significant Changes was about caring for our planet ecologically, Guy is about caring for our planet interpersonally. The emotional excavation Jayda G has done with her sophomore album is admirable to witness and a joy to hear, its brighter outlook on what this life has left for us a direct line from the hard-earned calm of William Guy to anyone who hears him. Too often we are tempted by the dark, easily seduced by the wretched evils and seemingly unending fears this world has to offer; Guy offers a rebuke, says wait a minute, take a deep breath and look around at what wonders are left. There’s so much still to cherish — and so many still to love.

Think I’m gonna take this Kawasaki Ninja. I know nothing about bikes - seems kinda dumb, but this one looks pretty sick. I can probably handle it, even with my twunky body.

Know nothing about bikes…? « Twunk »…? Yeah, none of that is true, and I have no idea where you got that from. Must’ve been a bad dream, you’ve literally always been absolutely obsessed with motorcycles, mechanics, cars….and you’ve always been straight as a pencil as well. Typical biker, all you want is to breed, dominate and be superior to others, and your body certainly helps with that. The constant sweat coming from your armpits, the horrendous funk emitting from your feet, filling your Nikes with a cheesy strench makes you a true alpha, and you’re full of that, although you don’t even care. You’re too dumb to realise that you smell, and you don’t care about anything except your motorcycle.

Statistics :

Identity :

Age : 20

Name : Matt

IQ : 72.

Personality : Dumb, arrogant, childish and immature, dominant and bro-ish. Very annoying, loud, and obnoxious. Extremely and excessively egocentric and full of yourself.

Sexuality : Straight, but doesn’t mind filling a twink when your alpha instincts take over. All you want is a hole to fill, « no homo ». 100% top.

Body :

Body type : Jock bro & biker boy

Overall attractiveness : 10/10, absolute stud.

Private’s size : 7.5 inches hard.

Rear end size : Small, firm and closed hole, making sure you never use it for anything that’s not farting, and other things related.

Overall B.O : 9/10 (very strong, manly and sweaty smell.)

Armpit scent : Sweaty, salty, strong funk.

Gassiness : 10/10, can’t stop farting around your biker bros, the rotten egg smell getting stuck in your leathers, and making your entire body stink of fart scent.

Foot smell : Absolutely odiferous strench, smelling of rotten cheese, sweat and old socks. Your shoes smell even worse, as the smell keeps piling up, and you obviously never ever washed them, filthy biker boy.

Muscles : Strong, gym-goer muscles.
