The morning has brought wisdom from a couple of friends in Boston.

Joe R--: "Time. Space. Money. Three fundamental resources; exchange rates fluctuate."

Eric B--: "The internet is an infinite storage facility for all the things you don't want in your home right now. You just don't know what the storage cost will be until you try to get something back out."

(Eric is also responsible for "The chief cause of problems is solutions," which I appreciate a great deal.)

The day my little boy came home from nursery -- and I've never shown him any my comics, he was three at this point -- and he goes, "Daddy, I'm a superhero," and he runs around the house punching stuff and breaking things. And I'm like, oh shit, I have appeared to have built a career around the fact that moral righteousness is who can hit the hardest, who can break things the most. And that really, really staggered me, and I had to really think about it. -- Si Spurrier

Because, while I do think we're pretty radical, and it's pretty different, at the same time, if I'm drawing from anything, I'm drawing from those early Detective Comics stories, and going back to that. And that was a version of the Martian Manhunter who was kind of mysterious and almost mystical in his abilities, in the sense that he could seem to really do anything, whatever the story called for, and his perspective on humanity was really important. -- Deniz Camp

I had a yen to go through Starlord's backstory and apparently it's even more of a mish-mash than most comic book characters, with retcons having consigned his original origin story to an alternate reality. Still, I find Marvel Preview 4 an interesting taste of seventies sci-fi, with its zeerust futurism, hints of astrology, In Search Of The Unknown UFOism and NASA worship coupled with the usual capes and lasers.

(Yes, there are capes. It's the future, jabroni.)

This is SF coming out of the same primordial soup as Star Wars (which would premiere two years later) and it's just fascinating to me how it's simultaneously so modern and yet so of-another-time.

Back around 2019, Hasbro was working to develop a Micronauts animated series. A whole 52 episodes were produced, but the animation studio, Boulder Media, was sold off and the show was shelved and made a tax write-off.

Well, guess what just leaked to archive.org!

I stuck one page of X-Men & the Micronauts #3 below the cut for legality purposes.
