#Tumblr is not notifying me when I get asks

[queen-lance]

hey! i was wondering if you had any recs for getting into new gods comics? i’ve been wanting to for a while but have been struggling to find good reading guides haha! and i know i need to be prepared by the time ram v’s series drops😔🙏🙏

Hi! I'm obsessed with the New Gods right now, but it's a pretty new fandom to me. I had read New Gods by Kirby a few years ago, but I had never gone fully deep in the comics like now, soooo I haven't read EVERYTHING yet, but let's go

Well, the place to start is with the King of Comics himself: Jack Kirby's Fourth World. So we have:

- New Gods (1971)

- Mister Miracle (1971)

- Forever People (1971)

They're all fantastic and I really love them

If you're a completionist, you can also read Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen #133-148

There's also the graphic novel Hunger Gods. It's not really canon (the next writers ignore what happens there), but it's part of Kirby's Fourth World and worth checking out

Everything aside of Kirby is... Controversial, to say the least

We have

- Justice League International (1987): Honestly one of the comics I'm the most fond of. It's not really a New Gods story, but it's worth checking out if you want more of them

- Forever People: I haven't actually read this one cause I wanted to jump to Orion and Scott & Barda, but it's pretty short (only 6 issues) so you could check it out. I know I will in the future

- Cosmic Odyssey: An interesting story, but... I really don't like its take on Orion and other characters

- New Gods (1989): Basically continues Cosmic Odyssey. Again, there's some interesting concepts, but... I don't like it. Maybe you will! But it was just frustrating to me

- Mister Miracle (1989): I like it! The first issues by DeMatteis have the same vibe of the JLI and it's pretty fun. The rest of the series is more inconsistent, but overall worth checking it out

- New Gods (1995): I'm enjoying it so far!

- JLA (1997): This is entirely skipable cause they're not the focus, but I like it as a story if you're REALLY craving for more

- Orion (2000): I haven't read it yet, but everyone says it's great. I can definitely @ you later when I get there 🫡

- Mister Miracle (2017): This is THE most controversial one. It's by Tom King, a guy who I'm not the biggest fan of (see: ex CIA in 2003). I think it's definitely worth checking out if you're into his writing style cause it's honestly one of his best works, but his Orion and Lightray are simply terrible. His Scott and Barda are good tho so...? Eh 🤷‍♀️

- Barda (2024) by Ngozi Ukazu: My biggest recommendation. It's just so good!!!!!!

There's also Final Crisis. Plus plenty of comics I know basically nothing about, like Seven Soliders: Mister Miracle or Bug! The Adventures of Forager

I honestly think if you read Kirby's Fourth World, you'll already be prepared for Ram V's The New Gods

So good luck and I really hope you enjoy it as much as I have!

Three knocks sound from the door leading into Clairé's office. Agent Phoenix appears outside before the window not long after, signing something to her.

"Mornin', Ms. Anderson. Sorry, do you have a moment to spare by any chance?"

[Clairé looks up from her papers]

Hm? Oh Phoenix, yes I'm not to busy at the moment. What did you want to talk to me about?

[telnaga]

hello i'm new here any recommendations

oh hey. uhh. hm.

well , i think i would start with the fact that tumblr is kind of a sinking ship that will never fully sink. and honestly i would recommend cohost over it. but you can have a decent time on tumblr.

some simple tips would be... -people might think you're a bot until you upload an avatar. there's a lot of bots.

-if you go into settings there's an option to filter tags or post content. it's very helpful if there's anything you want to avoid, whether it's a trigger or just a show you don't like.

-browsing general tags isn't recommended. even aside from bot spam, and random unrelated posts people mistagged for reach, the range of quality is huge. i would recommend finding one blog you like, and seeing who they reblog from, or seeing who posted posts you like.

-it's considerate not to reblog people's personal posts, or posts that don't seem like they made specifically to be spread, without asking them (a reply to the post is fine). a lot of times people are posting on here kindve like an interactive diary.

-its also considered polite, if you have a little comment to add to a post, to put it in the tags instead of adding to the chain. if the post is a conversation with you, or your comment is adding something you want to be seen and spread, putting it in the chain is fine

-if you're a minor you might want to focus on finding other people around your age range to follow, a lot of adults are uncomfortable with minors seeing and interacting with their content, purely from a safety standpoint really

Hm? Oh, hey Dr. Iris! Thanks! To be honest I would've actually have forgotten my own birthday if it weren't for you and a few other agents reminding me

[haleandwellmet]

Is your name Hale as in Hale, Michigan? I’m originally from Hale so when I saw your blog I got excited seeing that some other internet creator is also from Michigan! Whether it’s a reference to the town or literally just your name, hi there! Not enough Michigan creators in here 😩
