    2025/07/13

    Infinity: The Hunt has ended, and now we are left with the cleanup...and this miniseries. The reaction to Thanos's invasion, by the Inhumans, was to unleash clouds of Terrigen Mist. The reaction by Marvels comics to that event, was to bring us...this mess. So, grab your cell phones, and start posting, because apparently that is the future.

    You may be looking at this book, and after the prior series, you are hoping for a nice, simple story. Maybe something about the friends, we made along the way, or an exploration into teams working with one another. Dating possibly. Maybe some shared cookouts.

    That would be nice. Just people hanging out, chatting about stuff. Maybe a fun little nautical pirate story. Who knows? The world is the writer's oyster.

    NO! You do not get nice things. You must get out all of your social media handles and blog post about everything because that is the world we live in!!!

    And be sure to post about your most disgusting thing so the whole world knows about it. Get in that bathroom! Snap a picture of your garbage! Embarrass your family! DO IT!!!

    Also, make sure you get a bunch of super-heroes to come and help you out. Make sure that they are running away from emergency and disaster response scenarios to help you and your little problem. It is ok, you have superpowers and that makes you better than other people.

    Now, wait a minute. Talking about feelings and working through problems is a good thing, and we should be recognizing when talking and listening to people helps resolve problems. We should be emotionally available for people.

    Except for rage filled, pre-teen, younger brothers. They are the worst.

    But you should read the book. Or....whatever.

  • Episode 189 Infinity: The Hunt #4: Conclusion: Final Exam
    2025/06/29

    Giant leviathan, check! Plethora of teenage heroes, check! The end of a four-issue run! CHECK CHECK..... Ok...let's talk about what we have seen and read, and prep ourselves for the next saga.

    In order to talk about this issue, we need to learn how to speak whale. Some think that the key to learning a new language is to listen to tapes while you sleep. We strongly discourage this idea with learning whale. Mostly because it is loud droning that will totally screw up your rem cycle.

    Early phrases you should learn are, "where is the good kelp?", "please do not sit on my boat.", and finally, "why are you flying in the sky?". You will be amazed how useful and frequent these phrases are used.

    Whales tend to travel in groups or pods of family members. They tend to work together for the benefit of the group. Usually, these pods do not consist of humans. And they rarely consist of superpowered teenagers.

    One thing we know for sure, whales do not wear shoes.

    Whales are also not especially adept at digging. This is because they have no hands or drills.

    Whales have been known to use shotguns. This mostly occurs in deep ocean waters, but it has been seen in some of the rougher neighborhoods of New York.

    What scientists have been in total agreement about, is that whales fight. They do not just fight, they throw down and lay it all out on the field. They throw punches, they bite, they do suplexes. Seeing a whale battle royale is a site.

    And then whales can also get their tails kicked when they go up against a better foe. What? Too soon??

    That is our thesis on whales. Probably not accurate, but brief.

  • Episode 188 Infinity: The Hunt #3: Pass…Fail
    2025/06/15

    The Hunt shall continue until morale improves. Or until we finish this mini-series, whichever comes first. My money is on the mini-series. I mean, we are almost there. I can hear the leviathan singing.

    In the days before the internet and Pong, man only had rocks to play with. And the man with the biggest rock, usually won. But what about the country with the biggest rock?

    Speaking of big, the big man does not always win. Sometimes he gets the stuffing beat out of him. Sometimes he gets his wallet stolen. Sometimes it is his shoe. Sometimes it is all three.

    You should always take big chances. For example, if you find yourself being thrown from a flying craft, above a giant ocean, take a chance on this big opportunity. You are already up in the air. You are either going to survive the landing or not, have some fun. Do a flip or two. Try flying. Take up religion. You have nothing to lose.

    Oh. You should also take this chance to explore the bounds of physics. Why not....might as well.

    Big battles are awesome . They are more awesome when you have a chance of winning. They are even better when you are not over a big body of water.

    And then there is a big shark. You really never want to meet one of those.

    I hope you enjoyed this big talk about this big issue.
