REVIEW: Untold Tales of I Hate Fairyland #4 (of 5)

Untold Tales of I Hate Fairyland takes us back to the IHF universe to deliver stories by artists that are not Skottie Young but use the world created by Skottie along with some of its characters to deliver new tales on the series. It is filled with creativity, beautiful art, fantastic lettering, and coloring and quite honestly the only downside of this issue is that there are only 2 stories in…

Morgan Beem - Grim

🌱 Swamp Thing: Twin Branches by Maggie Stiefvater and Morgan Beem

“People do science for all kinds of reasons. To change the world. To get fame and fortune. To prove something to themselves. To learn something about themselves.”

Twins Alec and Walker Holland could not be any more different, one being quiet and the other the life of the party. For their last summer before college, the two leave the city and live with their rural cousins, where they find the swamp holds far darker depths than they could have imagined.

This is another DC graphic novel for young adults, this time focusing on Swamp Thing. Most the the DC graphic novels I’ve read are on characters I’ve known, but this is my first dive into Swamp Thing, knowing nothing about him.

And now, after reading this awesome graphic novel, I want to find other sources about the character of Alec Holland. Is this a good depiction? Is this reliable of the canon? I do not know, but I do know that this is a good story on growth, memories, and change.

How sweet it is to be loved by them 13

Jeremy couldn't believe his luck. He lost every round of rock paper scissors, and now he had to tell the pirates that beat up Morgan to leave. He opened the door to the bar with shaking hands, the rest of his fellow Marines behind him.

Thire at a table was the once who took them out plus the small pink haired one. The rubber man was sitting and staring at the other two. Their were rumors that Roronoa Zoro demon of the east blue was married to an angel. Going by the fact that a blonde omega with a halo of tiny blue flower atop his head sat in his lap, the rumors were ture. He felt all all eyes om him as he cleared his toaght.

“We are just wondering if you are indeed pirates?” Jeremy asked, hoping that they were going to say no.

“Yup!” The rubber man in the starwhat beemed. “I just found my first two crewmates!” The young alpha beemed at the couple. “So we're an official crew now!”

“Even though you are pirates, in reality…” Jeremy tipped his hat to the pirates. “You saved our town and bace. For that, we are grateful. But,” Jeremy wished he could just leave it at that. “Since you are pirates…as marines, we can not allow you to stay longer. longer. Please leave this place immediately as for the events that occurred here, we will be reporting it to the headquarters,” A rucks of the civilians outside sounded thire potset.

“No,” the angel spoke from his seat on his demon husband. “I have a question, witch one of you therw a child over the wall?” He spoke one eye brow raised in question.

“I'm not sure, but they will be punished,” What eles could he say?

“And one other question, Zoro darling,” the omega drawled, purring the alphas name, a shudder went up Jeremy's spine. He had a bad feeling. He knew that they had no chance against the three. “Just how easy was it to cut Morgan down?”

“Hmm, oh sweetheart you give me far more of a fight on the daily,” The alpha looked at the omega look he was looking at heaven, but when Zoro looked his way gave them a scowl, like he was less the dirt under his shoes. “The rest of them wouldn't stand a chance,”

“Now then,” the omega looked back at them. “Us three will leave peacefully come morning, is that alright with you captain?”

“Whatever you say, Sanji,” Their captain readily agreed. He looked just as starstruck and love sick as the other alpha.

“Now that we have agreed to that you may leave us,”

“What about the pink haired one,” Jeremy asked. He had to know. Sanji had said the three of them. Jeremy turned to the much smaller omega. “Aren't you with thire group?”

Reading This Week 2024 #33

As warned, I come to you a day late because I was out of my house from 7:20am to 9:20pm. That time out was planned but also along the way my car battery died so I've sent it to the shop to get it looked at

I've really been in the zone with audiobooks this week, and I also worked on reading through the comic books I've had languishing on my shelf

Finished:

Blue Box, Vol. 1 by Kouji Miura, translated by Christine Dashiell cute manga about some students at a very sports focused high school, badminton playing boy protagonist with a HUGE crush on basketball playing upperclassman girl. pretty cute, great art

Stone Butch Blues by Leslie Feinberg I am so glad that my library system had a physical copy of the 20th anniversary edition. It felt like an honor to hold this book in my hand. As expected, I cried at several points reading this. I have to say though, the mythos that has sprung up around this book (on tumblr but I'm sure elsewhere) as a Lesbian Book really really undersells how much this book's perspective is just as much if not more Working Class. it's a book about labor and difficulty making ends meet while butch: Jess' decision to pass as a man is certainly a gender-identity based decision but crucially it is also a financial one in hopes of getting a better job. Anyway. read the actual book

Remina by Junji Ito, translated by Jocelyn Allen read to keep up with Shelved by Genre. didn't like this one

Boys Weekend by Mattie Lubchansky recommended by a friend, graphic novel where a transfem attends the bachelor party of their old college buddy while the casino town they're in is taken over by a tech-startup-cult

The Empire of Gold by S.A. Chakraborty, narrated by Soneela Nankani okay yeah I spent like the last 2 hours of the audiobook jumping up and down my hallway. this was pretty rad, thanks for the rec dad. if you, like me, are put off by the YA characterization vibes in the first book, the characters do grow up

only fooling yourself by volefriend on ao3

System Collapse by Martha Wells, narrated by Kevin R. Free the murderbot diaries are always great

Jonny Appleseed by Joshua Whitehead, narrated by the author recommended to me by a friend! interesting and matter of fact perspective on racialized sex work from a two-spirit person

The Marlow Murder Club by Robert Thorogood, narrated by Nicolette McKenzie I'm going to come clean, I read this because I forgot the title of The Thursday Murder Club. however I really enjoyed this band of middle aged and older british ladies becoming friends and solving murders

Good Deeds #1-2 written by Che Grayson, art by Kelsey Ramsay, colors by Ronda Pattison comic about a small Florida town with unsettling supernatural stuff happening. I will be tracking down the other issues

Washed in the Blood #1 written by Kevin Roditeli, art by Rob Cannon, Kostas Pantoulas, and Vivi Ekhart the art and the lettering in this comic is crazy fun, but the story might be too "ooh so edgy" for me. I'll keep an eye out for the other issues but wont prioritize it

Crashing #1-3 written by Matthew Klein, art by Morgan Beem, colors by Triona Farrell miniseries focused on a doctor treating superpowered patients. absolutely going to find the other two issues of it, I need to see where this ends

What Feasts at Night by T. Kingfisher sequel to What Moves the Dead. it wasn't as good as the first one but it was still pretty enjoyable horror

Started/Ongoing:

The Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch, narrated by Michael Page so excited to be reading this for the sff bookclub. too clever for their own good con man scoundrels are a favored character type of mine

Invisible Kingdom, Vol. 1: Walking the Path written by G. Willow WIlson, art by Christian Ward scifi comic that looked cool! a comic book shop employee recommended it to a friend, and I remembered I'd seen it at my library so I picked it up to check out (gorgeous scifi art)

little warrior by kathkin on ao3 read the next chapter :)

chapter 9 of follow the sun by verdantstars on ao3 new chapter out of a fire emblem three houses fic i like!

DNFs:

The Collected Poems of Audre Lorde this is hopefully just a temporary dnf. it was due back at the library and i did not have time to finish reading it before then. with any luck I'll check it out again when i have a bit more poetry reading motivation

Ragnarok by A.S. Byatt, narrated by Harriet Walter

Portrait of a Thief by Grace D. Li, narrated by Eunice Wong and Austin Ku

Reading Plans:

obviously The Lies of Locke Lamora is on my reading plan list bc its the sff book club pick for september! and I'll be reading Sensor to keep up with Shelved by Genre

other books I have out from the library and want to try out but may not finish reading: Bloom Into You Vol. 2 by Nakatani Nio, The Sprite and the Gardener by Rii Abrego and Joe Whitt, Female Husbands: A Trans History by Jen Manion, narrated by Kate Harper, The River of Silver by S.A. Chakraborty, narrated by Soneela Nankani

and I want to read more of the books that exist on my physical bookshelves. some of that I've been doing by borrowing the audiobook versions of them (like Jonny Appleseed and System Collapse above) but others dont have that option
