COMIC COVER OF THE WEEK

The "Harley Quinn #56" cov by Rahzzah is arresting. Impossibly real. 

SONG OF THE WEEK

"Crazy DnB!" by Azikazin Magic World (Korea). May be among my electronic tracks of the year.

Am also enjoying the Suray remix of "Atlas" by Acid Arab (France) feat. Cem Yildiz (Turkey), "Gimme" by Hazel English (Australia), "PS118" by Jurin Asaya (Japan) feat. Rapsody (US), "So Much Has Changed" by Maro (Portugal) for the Colors YT channel, "The One" by gal group No Na (Indonesia), and "Gold" by Maduk (Netherlands) & Veela (Canada). Skip the opening 23 seconds of "The One" - farq, I hate intros on songs! Wait until you hear Maro's voice - goes straight to the heart.

BEST MOVIE I SAW IN THE PAST WEEK

Nearly lost me in the setup, then grew fascinating with its multiple viewpoints, then threatened to become tedious after the central mystery was "explained", then gripped me again with the finale. A bizarre trip I don't regret taking, even if it could have been shorter. The talented ensemble cast and mix of flawed characters helped.

POD REC

Witty, super-knowledgable Aussie dudes dissect every broadcast "Doctor Who" yarn. Am ripping through their playfully irreverent takes on Classic "Who". (As entertaining as the hosts are, I likely won't bother with the analyses of the New "Who" eps. Don't care enough.)

PUT TOGETHER WHILE EATING LUNCH AND WATCHING TODAY'S UFC :-)

Nothing alleviates anxiety like LEGO.
