Image is doing a Best of 2018 sale. Got caught up on all the issues of Skyward and A Bolivian Song.

The fascinating thing about Skyward is how it portrays the class divide. In a world where people live in low-gravity, you would think that the rich would be the ones living amongst the skies and the poor would be on the ground looking up at them, but in this book it's the opposite. The rich are the ones who get to stay on the ground because they can afford the technology that simulates normal gravity, while the poor are the ones stuck in the air. And the rich have the advantage of being safe on the ground while the poor have to be very careful they don't float away and die, plus they have to deal with natural disasters being way different in low gravity, like rain storms becoming giant floating blobs of water.

My favorite part in the whole book is when they walk past a class and one of the students asks, "Is it true that a girl can get pregnant if it just... floats in?" And the teacher goes, "No, that's a myth, but that's not an excuse to not clean up after yourself." :mjlol:

Oblivion Song was really great at hooking you in from the start. I was kind of skeptical because I'm so over other dimensions and post-apocalyptic fiction, and it's written by Robert Kirkman, so I thought it'd be too similar to Walking Dead, which I was burnt out on years ago. But it's actually really good so far, and it's really a great character drama. Walking Dead was too, but this has so many nuanced, complicated relationships between all its characters.


+rep I just bought the trade back for Skyward. :wow:So far so good

* Isn’t it high time for a solo Damian/Robin series?

* Captain Marvel is pretty much Wolverine now, she in EVERY facet of the Marvel Universe

* Why hasn’t Marvel made their own version of “The Suicide Squad”? BUT I guess u can count “Heroes/Villains for Hire a few yrs back with Purple Man n Misty Knight.

* Why hasn’t Marvel created an all star team of villains to rival the Avengers?

* Isn’t DC’s constant n blatant pushing of The Batman Who Laughs quite sad?

* Will Marvel create new and interesting villains for the X-Men to face AND do a moratorium on X-Men & (Teenage Cable is overkill) time travel? U can fight Magneto, Apocalypse, Mr. Sinister, and The Reavers, Bastion, The Hellfire Club and armed Anti mutant zealots so man times.

* Smh at what Marvel has done to Professor X. Everybody doesn’t need a cool n gritty reboot. He look like a character from a CW drama now, smh.

I think that was the Thunderbolts at a time now I think just a team of antiheroes I have not been keeping up with them.
