Tea & toast & tunnels & trolls

I wish Rebellion would frickin' hurry up with the new edition of "T&T".

COMIC COVER OF THE WEEK

By Dan Panosian. Masterful use of a limited palette.
SONGS OF THE WEEK

Solid seven days for music. As well as visiting a bricks'n'mortar record store and making a couple of purchases, YT served me releases by two favourite foreign femmes.

First, "Comme Jean Reno" by Flora Fishbach (France). Post-modern Eurodisco delivered with effortless cool - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cC7GN22Y6N4

Then, "Level Up" by Veronica Maggio (Sweden). Sweet, catchy current pop - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-o54ScUIFpI

However...my No. 1 across the past week, for the clip almost as much as the track itself, has to be "Wizard" by Castle Rat (US). Mystic '70s metal played totally straight. Comments section is good value - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWKmiTwjjHA

BEST TWO-PART FILM I SAW THIS WEEK

Not the only flicks I viewed, either. I thought these 2024 'toons did a better job of bringing to life the original comics than the live-action movie. Take a bow, JMS.
Work on big "Jaws" LEGO kit was delayed while I waited for the company to send me a missing sticker sheet. Assembled this chap with wings one day when desperate to click bricks.
Finding myself strangely engaged in the FIFA Club World Cup...
