Comic Haul week of October 1st, 2024

New comics!

Poison Ivy #26 - I looked into it and this series has been upgraded to on-going, which is great!. When I first started this blog it was only supposed to be a few issues.

Marc Spector: Moon Knight #29

Plastic Man No More! #2 - this being on Black Label let’s me know it’s going to get body horror gross considering I don’t think Plastic Man is having much sex

Cruel Universe #3 - We are enjoying anthology horror as well!

Cult of the Lamb #4

The Man of Steel #2

I just had MANY hotdogs while crossing into the Midwest. Chicago dogs are not my thing. Some things I don’t get, and that’s fine, but Chicago hot dogs just feel wrong. I don’t like pickles, which is fine, but fundamentally speaking there’s just too much pickle on this to still consider it a hotdog. The pickles are bigger than the dogs, is this a pickle sandwich? Some people don’t consider corndogs to be hotdogs, and I think they’re wrong, but this is a further departure from platonic hotdogness in my opinion. So, you won’t see a picture of one below. I took a picture of the cool place where I got the Chicago dog (Wolfy’s), but I don’t want to feature that abomination on this page. Instead, here is a picture of a chilidog (ok, polish sausage) I got in Toledo.

I was in Chicago recently. Mostly doing a hot dog tour, not a huge fan of pickles though. Might share some of those dogs next week. A friend of mine does the river tours on the river, he showed me this famous set from a particular comic film, can you guess the film?

I’ll give you a hint, why so serious???

Hammerlocke #3

Was driving through Circleville Ohio, surely one of the weirdest towns on the planet. They have an annual pumpkin festival and are very proud of it. I saw on my GPS "HITER RD NO1" which was funny because it sounds like they're calling Hitler a virgin. Then I saw the street's actual sign and it read "Hitler No. 1 Road" which is funny in a completely different way.
