Squirm like a wyrm

COMIC COVER OF THE WEEK

"Justice League Unlimited #21" by Seb McKinnon. Eerily beautiful! I'd put it on a wall. I'd go there if I could.

SONG OF THE WEEK

"Heaven" by Tayori (Japan).

Commended >>> "Call The Cops" by Xzibit, B-Real, Demrick (US) is REAL rap; "Brussels Is Haunted" by Echo & The Bunnymen (UK) could have been an '80s hit for the band; "Sunshine (Just Right)" by Tessa Violet (US) is cuter than I normally like but somehow gets away with it; "Ultimate Sacrifice" by Gloryhammer (UK) grows on ya - should be heard LOUD while browsing the racks in a heavy-metal store; "Barthelona" by Sofi Tukker (US) is unadulterated fun.

BEST THREE NEW 'TOONS I WATCHED YESTY

The animations I saw on Friday would fill a reel the size of a cosmic wheel...er, if they weren't digital. The Top 3 standouts had to be "One Piece Heroines" [Netflix], "X-Men '97" Season 2 [Disney+] and "Smoking Behind The Supermarket With You" [Crunchyroll].

NEW FAVE BITMAP COMPENDIUM (TA, RS2)

Considering I lived through the VCS era, played all of the key titles extensively and have since read tons of articles on the system/games/programmers/publishers, I was suprised by how much I learnt from this designer doorstopper. It has overtaken the Sega Master System compendium as my favourite in the range.
